  1. risk on risk ? watts + 2 = jo'm ?

    Hypo' trade > Watts + Howe + 2nd Rnd Pick + 2016 1st Rnd pick; to GCSuns, for el Pres' & JO'M

    Well I got the feeling from who I was talking to that a deal for Pestia wasn't as likely, at least not while he was contracted.

    Though, now thinking back on it he was saying we were heavily into both O'Meara and Prestia and the deal he was talking about was the Howe + something/someone else that was/is still being negotiated.

    I highly doubt we'd come close to getting two of GCs young, talented mids - let alone one but I'm not giving up the idea.

    GC would be stupid to let go of those blokes though, even for Howe+Watts or Dawes+First Round.

  2. I should mention; the reason I thought this was noteworthy was that he said Jeremy Howe to Gold Coast would be part of the deal and the clubs were just negotiating what else was required to get it done.

  3. Soft source confirmed that we've done the considerations and are likely to make a play for him depending on other player movements.

    Edit: Not even mad - he's a gun, I think we could control most of his [censored] given the behaviour and commitment of the rest of the playing group. Plus, crossy as a development coach wouldn't hurt :D

  4. Wouldn't want him if we only had to give up pick 89.

    He's a classmate in the Fevola-Angwin School of Stupidity and Team Disruption.

    Wouldn't want anyone to come in and disrupt our perfectly cultivated, losing brand of footy now would we mauriesy.

    Tbh, I would not even say no to Benny Cousins at this point. Besides, Harley Bennell is a star with the attributes we're lacking.

  5. If Watts is off to Richmond, for what I suspect will be a pick in the 30-35 range, could we move on Toumpas + Richmond pick for Bennell? Would GC bite?

    The Toump has no currency praha no point even trying - better to keep him for a year, play him through the seniors and if he isn't great off load him once he's had some exposure.

    Not coming to the Demons. Source: Bennell family, he also won't be coming back to Perth.

    Shut up Ethan, I hate you.

  6. I'm happy for GWS to take some of our dead wood. The best part with Howe is that he makes other clubs act like a 4 year old at the showbag stand. They get mesmerised with the outside packaging, but deep down we know the inside is full of rubbish.

    He has massive upside - I don't get why demonlanders hump [censored] on him. He is actually a great kick for goal (it has been said that he's [censored] on here) he's a spastically good mark and has a good turn of speed.

    Granted he's not the player to lead the team but he's not deadwood ffs.

  7. Tick, tock, the black mouse has run up the electric clock.

    Lancelot lurks with feathers or fur to the command of his sir.

    Means the player we wanted to grab either went to the power or stayed there.

    So the original idea of 2 A graders isn't going to come to fruition and it's onto the plan B, 1 A grader and a Dom Tyson esque trade.

    The A grader left is Lancelot waiting for their club to say yes and it's one of either a club with fur or feathers.

  8. Why not?

    I hate this type of posts just quietly.

    Yeah shits me too. Everyone talking about us getting Dangerfield at least back it up with I heard something from someone somewhere.

    The no's don't even attempt to to justify a no:

    It won't be Dangerfield...

    At the very least tell us your milkmans wife's cousin in law is Dangers mail man and they've said he's signed an extension with Adelaide.

  9. One thing for sure, I would not give up pick 2. Pick 2 would be out of bounds, they can run away with pick 3 all they like.

    If McCartin is going at 1 and Petracca at 2 why would it matter as we want Brayshaw at 3?

    I feel it is very unlikely we'll get Shiel or Mitchell. GWS wouldn't see Petracca as > Shiel - Shiel is a performing gun that they can build a team around. Mitchell would be difficult to pry away from Sydney - all I hear is they rate him very highly and he is a big party of their future.

    Sloan I feel unlikely but not out of the realms of possibility if they're into Trenners.

    Tex I'm not sure on.

    For mine I think it's more likely we'll pick up Toby Greene with 12 if we trade Trenners to Richmond.

    Dream world would be 2,3, 12 and 23 (no way I give up Trenners and 23 for 12) for a disillusioned Tex, Sloane and Danger. ( I can dream :P )

  10. Agree, mate. I think they're better options than Howe, Terlich and/or Grimes off HB. Incidentally, I don't see there being a spot for Howe next year. It'll be interesting to see if they put him up for trade.

    I don't understand the hate on Howe from Demonland posters. He's an amazing mark of the ball, decent kick with a turn of speed - he does need to take a second after he marks before giving it off but he's genuinely talented.

  11. Few things guys, beams is an amazingly good player.

    He is worth giving up pick 3 for.

    Edit: Collingwood did not want him to leave.

    Wouldn't touch him unless we could get his brother down from Brisbane.
