Assuming we get and have pick 3

Pick 3, Toumpas and either Trengove ( preferable) or Grimes for Dangerman!

Even though as I have said, Your all on the grass and in a crazed dementive state!

It won't bloodywell happen!!

Pick 2 AND potentially 3 are massive massive overs for anything less than say... an Ablett!

very interested to hear what roos says on 360 in a couple of minutes.

thought his segment stopped after round 23?

Let us know if he says anything of note

It would be another dream to land Danger man.

I have just finished cruising down the Rhine with 34 Adelaidians.

They are devastated that Danger may be leaving. Although not so bad if he goes to Melb.

They would hate the thought of him turning up at Port or Pies.

I have had a great couple of weeks talking footy with them.

They aren't as mad as a lot of people think.

Or maybe I just happened to get the 34 sane barstards.

Any hoo now that we look like we may get Harry with still a chance of Danger.

I am am in a better mood as I head for France.

Bonjour

you poor basstard!!! feel for you

Adeladians to the Rhine....like Briquettes to Newcastle ^_^

Enjoy a bottle of bubbly for me PD :)

I don't believe 2 and 3 are overs.

Danger is the type of player who could drag this club out of the mire and take the rest of the team with him.

With Lumumba and possibly Malcevski to support him a drastically lift the standard at training and on match day.

A proven match winner who has consistently polled top five in the brownlow year after year.

A high draft pick, could be a a good player or he could be another, Tambling, Sylvia or Morton.

I don't want to risk it again, we don't have a good record with high draft picks.

Roos was "startled" by the result Saturday. "Stunned".

Said Sydney just didn't respond to the pressure.

Key to Hawthorn's success is their impeccable ball movement.

Hawks slow the ball down by keeping possession, allowing them to breathe, forcing Sydney to work harder for no result and exhaust themselves.

Have to tread very fine line between spraying players and being comforting, because it can damage relationships permanently.

Believes Clarkson is the best coach in the game. "You have to remember where they were, what they were like when he got there. They were a really poor team, building team, young team."

On improving: Have to "start at the start", only way to get to their level is being as hard as the Hawks. The one constant in grand final teams, they're hard, tough, they tackle.

Thank god this guy coaches us, he understands each team's strategies flawlessly.

Gerard: Will you trade picks 2 and 3 for Dangerfield?

Roos: (wry smile, took a moment to get his composure, didn't seem to be anticipating such a direct question). "First and foremost, he's a terrific player who is contracted for next year."

Speculation started with Roo saying he was tradeable.

"We haven't spoken to him."

"If Frawley goes, we... everyone expects us to get pick 3".

"We'll talk to Patty.. if he says he wants to leave Adelaide we'll look into it."

Mentioned Robbo asked him about it before the show. Either way, all deflection. Saying they haven't talked is, for my money, another complete lie. There's a script all involved parties are following here. AFC, MFC, Roos, Patty, his manager.

Agreed, also Bomber is a terrible liar. He's off to the Gold Coast. He was clearly uncomfortable answering the question.

Gerard & Robbo's opinions on the trade period:

Waite: Going to North.

Liam Jones: Going to Carlton.

Ryder: Going to Port.

Beams: Offering pick 4 or nothing, Brisbane won't budge, Collingwood being ridiculous.

Frawley: Collingwood (???? according to Gerard)

Frawley: Robbo says Hawthorn.

Clark: Geelong.

Dangerfield: Staying in Adelaide "simple as that" says Robbo.

McKenna done within 48 hours.

Mark Thompson, "think he'll be at Essendon" says Robbo, Gerard says "might want to re-think that". Robbo: "If the AFL went to Mark Thompson with $1.7 million and said, Mark, we need you to coach this team... he would do it." Done deal I reckon.

Agreed. He also kept asking idiotic questions about the grand final to Roos and Bomber when clearly the more interesting conversation involved Bomber's future and Roos' trade intentions. All we got was a rushed question about Danger that was deflected in typical Roos fashion. Compare that to his answer when asked about R'OK, where he outright said it was probably a year too late.

slobbo is a complete moron. he can't even follow a basic run-down ffs.

I think he's deteriorating after essendon was ridiculed in the federal court a week or so ago. On the grog.

This is the "Danger" thread. Don't care much for Robbo especially when he is slobbering!

Signed up seven kid members to the club yesterday.

Three of whom were new-born sons of mates of mine - fathers all support the Crows.

Get Danger and we've got these boys for life.

That said, it'll be bloody hard to dislodge Danger from Adelaide. But everyone knows that.

As an aside, and I've posted it before, but my son is the youngest ever member of this club. In its entire history. Signed him up as soon as I found out his sex and could give him a name - he was 20 week fetus at the time.

His favourite player is Bernie Vince. Well, I reckon it is - he can't talk yet.

If we get Dangerfield, I'll get my first ever membership (100%) as well. Our membership will basically explode if we land Danger.

What sort of peculiar individual spends time on DL without being a member?

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea
