Time to reveal those rubbish riddles.

Obviously whatever plan you or the club had didn't pull off. You have been extremely quite after a supposed deal fell through and been MIA.

You have already been online today and seen people asking for proof of whatever deal was suppose to happen.

Time to own up.

You've been less than welcoming of GNF's posts in the past, tell me why he should all of a sudden buckle to YOUR demands?

Clearly the guy isn't the saviour, and was certainly starting to drink some of his own bathwater, but I still enjoyed the riddles... even if they didn't eventuate.

I'm with you DD36. I wasted soooooo much time trying to figure it out and unlike my sudoku puzzles there is no answer in the back of the book!

im with you SS

It's up to the reader on how they choose to take the "info" given on these forums by GNF

i would guess less the 10% of the trades we hear get done

and with us not getting richmonds 1st round pick it changed everything

at trade time there is so many rumours you wouldn't believe some of the players put up

and some of the low ball offers

looking from the outside we had a plan and it didn't happen , so we move on

we wanted x amount for the picks and it didn't happen , so now we draft hopefully 2 very good kids

Seriously, WGAF?

I enjoyed reading his, Chooks, Ryan Dee, Party Boy etc even if they didn't come to fruition.

It basically [censored] my working week from a productivity POV but who gives a shyt.

Next year we pillage free agency.

Pretty difficult to get trade mail right a week out given all the possible permutations. I for one think GNF's info is valuable to this forum and his credibility remains intact IMO.

some are [censored] off because the news got out... the fact it fell over is beside the point but they still try to discredit him for the next seasons trade period.

If Trenners was traded the deal would have happened

lets get over it, & hope Trenners can heal, so he can fulfill his dreams of being a successful AFL player..... go Trenners, best of luck mate.

If the deal fell over for the sole reason being Trenners injury then we are still a terribly run club

I think more likely is that you are in fact dee-luded

What trade deal? Not even GNF has mentioned what deal would have eventuate?

I mean keep hearing this so called trade deal that would have happened if trengove had passed yet Josh Mahoney mentioned that they hadn't even go further to discuss trade deals with the tiges.

I highly doubt there was ever a big Deal looming. GNF never mentioned trengove doing a medical before Jay Clark leaked it. Wasn't until it came out he decided to run with it.

The guy made demonland a laughing stock with all his riddle [censored].

Biggest week since 2000 grand final week my ass.

well at least you got that right, this is me, dee-luded a badge of honor.

but alas, I guess we just were not going to give Picks 2 & 3 to get the Ugly Duckling over the line... so we had an offer on the books from the Tiggers for P-12,,, we went down that track & came up with zilch, & a mongrel injury to one of our favourite sons.

Thats what happens in trade week, & we went as far as a fitness test, so it was done in principle, but the fitness test failed. just another example of the loyalty of Trenners. he's a great fella.

And I for One am glad Trenners is still a Demon.

Biggest week since 2000 grand final week my ass.

so why did Trenners get shown the Tigers rooms, then a fitness test was organised... just so we could trade Him & P-23, for a return of P-12; get off the grass DD36.

the Danger one fell thru obviously, maybe price too high, P-2&3

it was on, & maybe it still is, (2015)? I don't know Kennedy's contract status for next year, of if he has to sign another contract now, or if he is still under contract... maybe this time next year we will know him more closely.

IF we had of landed Dangerfield, Or Kennedy even better: It would have been the biggest thing for us since the 200 GF, for sure... but it didn't work out.

Thats the trouble when someone goes early, it can upset the deal, or the deal can backfire before it gets done.

He's contracted until the end of 2017. This was never going to happen.

GNF was blindsided by Clark & Trenners

So was everyone. If we had landed P12 i think a lot more trades would have been done.

We just have to nail those 2-3 picks.

It is critical.

Posters such as Chook, Ryan Dee, Party Boy GNF etc who post stuff they have heard, I have not problem with at all.

They are only posting info they have heard from their sources.

U take all the info posted with a grain of salt.

Not every poster gets everything right.

Time to let it go and move on.

i feel we are very much in a win, win.

Either Brayshaw, Petracca, Mcartin, Wright or Lever (roughie) will be ours.

All look the goods, with Lever the dark horse.

Feeling confident with this. My ideal outcome would be; Petracca/Brayshaw (man our midfield needs work) Petracca/Mcartin, Brayshaw/Mcartin.

St Kilda have shown some interest in Brayshaw apparently, undecided on their choice for pick 1.

Would be unwise for us to make it clear we think Brayshaw is the better prospect of the two, if that's the case.

How does Trengove and 23 for 12 sound now? Personally I reckon it sounds pretty great. And that's the reason we wanted to trade him. Because the risk of reinjury is high (turns out it already was injured), the time it will take him to get back on the park is a long time and his form prior to injury wasn't any good either.

If we did Trengove for 12 we could've made traded 12 for just some really good picks. Imagine turning 12 in to 30, 31 and 40 with a club who wants quality over quantity. From there we could've got Frost with 40 and headed to the draft with 30 and 31 instead of 40 and 53.

Maybe it was part of a big deal. Maybe it wasn't. I'm not hating on GNF. I reckon something was brewing and it got canned and his information just came too late.

Maybe the clubs really stepped up it's work and is trying to find the moles and also putting some disinformation out there trying to shake a few trees.

Managers knew this year Melbourne were circling and they'll know next year as well.

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc.
