Ethan Tremblay

[censored] no.

The fact he’s played every game in the last three years tells me he is. You’re attempting to find a negative in something that doesn’t exist.

So they’ve had three years worth of injuries?

Yep just saw the news over here as well, this year’s first and second pick and next year’s first pick for Kelly.

I call BS that West Coast will trade Gaff for a pick they can on trade to Geelong for Kelly. It’s rubbish.

Offering that sort of money is such a Norf game thing to do.

Mahoney is a straight shooter, I’m inclined to believe him over Mitch Cleary.

Agreed but I don’t think Sydney will be keen on giving a first round pick back. If they really want Daniher Essendon will want two first round picks. I still think splitting the pick will get the job done. I’m quietly confident we can land Basil Papley. If we get Tomlinson, Langdon, Papley and still have a pick in the first round we’ve done very well.

Interesting how now that we’ve missed out on Elliott, Papley isn’t just looking at Carlton.

Ahhhh yes that’s right.

And he’ll be named emergency for every game, won’t quite crack the best 22 all season.

He’s kicked 120 goals in 4 seasons after being taken as a rookie and will only get better. We have a serious lack of small forwards and one of the worst forward lines in the game. I think Papley would address our deficiencies very well.

If we split pick 3 I’d use one of the new picks on Papley and retain the other for the draft, I wouldn’t use pick 3 on him. But it doesn’t matter because he’s nominated Carlton so that’s where he’ll end up.

Good post dmma but would a full stop kill ya?

Ahhh what could have been. Was it a navicular that he suffered?

Would anyone else wish injury on a player if he used us as leverage to get a better deal out of his current club, more so to cause a detriment to that club? Because I wouldn’t......................

I can confirm that although Elliott’s nickname is Basil, he wasn’t the Basil.

Jenkins and Casboult?! You’ve lost the plot Picket!

Is Gunston considered a key forward?

Yeh that’s rubbish that Brisbane jumped in at the last minute, they didn’t offer Christensen or Taylor new contracts during the season and they’re still yet to be offered contracts. Both are small forwards, my money’s on Brisbane waiting to see what Elliott does before Taylor and Christensen are re-signed. Brisbane have been after Elliott for some time.

Langdon for 22 is fair for both. The longer it takes, I fear it will be due to Fremantle wanting more.

If Brayshaw goes to Fremantle Peter Bell might get that feather in his cap that he keeps banging on about.

Does this mean we’re not up to our eyeballs anymore?

I don’t think I’ve ever boo’d any player and not going to start booing Elliott, who seems like a decent young fella, just because he didn’t come to us. Additionally, if I had the choice of transferring to a new workplace, I’d stay away from the one that was run like our club and had the track record like it. I don’t blame him at all.

The old tell him he can play where he wants to get him to sign with us trick aye.
