I would love GC to play super hard ball and flat out refuse to trade unless they get what they want.

I reckon Ablett has treated GC appallingly. He demanded a 3 year contract, front ended no less, and one year in wants to go home. Doesn't get his way and then picks and chooses when he will play. What sort of rubbish is that from a player brought to the club to show leadership. At a time when they desperately needed leadership the great GA only deigned to play home games. Rocket must hate him. 

I have lost a lot of respect for him. Even more so since his supposed threat to retire should he not get what he wants. I hope GC call his bluff. They would be doing the rest of the competition a big favour not gifting Geelong another A grade, brownlow medal winning mid fielder. Their reward would be repsect form the rest of the comp and their player and 2 easier games a year when they meet the Cats. [censored] him

Correct.

Although they do start with basic proficiency in daggers.

Maybe what @Ethan Tremblay thinks of as a sword, the rest of us regard as something... smaller.

here here. He says he wants to go home. Gold Coast should tell him 'fine, just retire and go home'.

If his personal issues are significant then why didn't he move home already ? he can't have his cake and eat it too.

 

champion player, cr#p leader.

Sounds like a magic item.

He'd need something like Knowledge (Arcana) to use it, which is an intelligence based skill.

I'll let you decide if he has a high enough INT stat.

 

 

 

just jks Ethan ;)

Waldron just said on sen that Watts is definitely gone and a Hogan trade is still a possibility and would be in the best interests for both parties. 

Geez a forward line without watts and hogan would be interesting and by interesting I mean crap

HTF would trading Hogan be in the best interest of both parties?

Exactly what I was thinking when I heard it. 

Maybe cause he goes home for personal reasons and we get an unbelievable trade in our favour for once.

It's ok, I don't understand Elvish. 

Still in the building apparently. or perhaps he has left the building and is on his way to Gosch's paddock. Short forward lines are all the rage so maybe he can slot into our newly vacant forward line.

An interesting statement from Waldron if that's how it was articulated.

Despite people having an unhealthy hate for media, the good journos word their statements well enough so they don't get it wrong often. There isn't any wiggle room in that one about Watts.

Langdon still hasn't been held to account enough for saying 'I've got no doubt that Jesse Hogan's next contract will be back in Perth'.

Waldron is never held accountable for his predictions. Wonder if he makes it up to be controversial, actually has a source (besides Ricky Nixon or is being manipulated by someone else. I have no time for him.

Waldren hates the dees.

He's probably heard th wa clubs have spoken to Hogan's manager and gone thr ol' hogan to wa is in the blah blah blah.

Always has been a [censored]

Well it would seem that we may end up doing that rumored deal with the pies.

Pick 10 and Watts for their pick 6. Then on trade pick 6 and a shuffle of later picks to the crows for Lever.

If that's what has to happen, then so be it .. But I shudder at the thought of seeing Watts in black and white.

My heart says I would hate to lose either of them. Every heart beats true.

My head says if true we will replace them with forwards who apply forward line tackling pressure.

surely we'd have to get something else in that.. Im presuming we also give a second rounder. So its watts, our first round and our second for Lever. Just feels too much to me. I know theres a lot of Watts hate on this forum but Id be excited if I were a pie and we had him coming in. For effectively nothing!

    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
