Spencer may become a decent 1st choice ruckman, but Gawn will be a better 1st choice ruckman.

hahahaha ... yeah right. But as I said what we think is irrelevant. We are biased.

They are interested in Gawn ... you keep whoever you want because you think he "may become a decent 1st choice ruckman"

You sound so convincing ... other clubs are not stupid. In any trade their is two parties. In the real world, the only way we will move Spencer on this year is for next to nothing, assuming we are only using 3 draft picks is this weak draft. Oh ... yes and we would probably have to cop some of his salary as well.

But yes .... its going to be simple ... you are dreaming!!!

There is more teams other than Richmond with a shortage of Ruckman

Ruck Stocks

Keep

Jamar

Martin

Gawn

Fitzpatrick

Campbell

Trade Bait

Spencer

Delist

Newton

The only other Tall we might have trouble keeping is Warnock

Spencer is not genuine "trade bait" ... I cant see any other club being interested after a knee reco.

The only possibly genuine trade bait would be Jamar, Martin & Gawn ... but we would & should not be interested.

Where is the bias?

You act as if I'm trying to convince you or someone of something.

I simply think that both of Gawn and Spencer have the capacity to become decent first choice ruckmen, and that Gawn will be better, so he is the one we want to keep.

Other clubs don't have to be stupid. If they are desperate for a ruckman, they can have Spencer - at a price.

If they don't want him - good on them. They can look elsewhere.

You underestimate the value of a good ruckman and how other clubs would view his potential and worth.

What's simple and obvious is that you need some practice in reading others' posts accurately.

Lets trade Gawn for Miller.

You truly are a stirrer- fit into the same catagory as me..

Again you miss the point. Its all about ease of getting the "trade" done. Time after time it is you who displays your complete lack of knowledge about the system.

a/ Its not "tricky" & b/ If they are desperate for a ruckman, they can have Spencer - at a price.

What again is even more painfully obvious.

a/ You cant demonstrate the ability to negotiate in the "real world".

b/ You have no ability to asses the true ability of the players from both sides of the trade.

c/ You have no appreciation of the complete complex nature of your very own argument.

d/ You demonstrate time after time a simplistic onside approach to everything in the trading and drafting process.

f/ You talk with no logical overall strategy .... combined with the fact you have no ability to outline and compare the current draft or trading situations.

d/ You just consistently fail to understand where the real power lies in the whole drafting and trading process.

You are not alone around here. However, you are a wordsmith. Good on you.

Can I just ask - on SEN they were talking about Max having not yet signed a contract when DB was on last night. Confirm that he in fact has signed til 2013?

Are you saying this is what DB said?? he has signed an extension?

I'm not saying that - I was under the impression from various posting on here that Max had signed a 2year extension, but according to the interview they were chatting as if he hasn't.

Your posts aren't referring to anything I'm talking about, and you seem to be unable to grasp what I'm saying, so there is no issue of 'lack of knowledge'.

Once again, from now on you will be ignored in this thread.

Someone else can respond to your gobbledigook.

Salary cap pressure ?

If any club is under salary cap pressure it's Collingwood and Carlton .... not us .

Yes, salary cap pressure.

The others (Power clubs) have they're ways of getting buys, don't they.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 15th January 2025

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    TRAINING: Thursday 9th January 2025

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan. Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov
