Everyone loves rumour speculation during trade period about our club. CHF is presenting it perfectly. 

Take note @Dr evilat the way @CHFconsistently states, "I am hearing" and at no stage has stated "player X is 100% coming to our club, nobody needs to worry". 

I would have thought the difference in posting style is fairly obvious. 

Nobody is going to pot you if you post information in the right manner. It's pretty easy really. 

 

Rubbish. The reason people like @CHF have to hold back is because a small minority of posters on here are threatened by posters with information, for whatever reason. So they create a standard where everyone but them must have every bit of intel they post come through. I’ve spoken to 10 plus posters with information that used to post it but don’t anymore and they always name the same few posters as the reason.

No Facebook's information is better then yours, what have you revealed that hasn't been reported by 300 million other people already.

I swear all of my critics sound the same, i wonder if there is some multiple account type things going on there. 

appreciate the feedback as always.

I would rather not at this stage as I have witnessed how others have been jumped upon and have had to defend themselves.

I will post further if anything more solid that a whisper comes up.

Definitely understand why that's not an appealing thing for you, but don't let it deter you from posting in the future, your contribution is valuable and appreciated. 

Updated info for those interested :) if not please ignore. 

1. A few clubs have come knocking about Angus Brayshaw again, nothing doing at this stage, but watch this space. they've also asked about Christian Salem and been told a flat no. 
2. there will be a few players in brand new roles in 2020, one in particular is James harmes who will have a role imv much more suited to him
3. I still believe Tom McDonald will end up at Essendon for 2021 as a key defender. 
4. several clubs in addition to those reported are interested in Neville Jetta. 
5. as mentioned by others there are several mature age players that are being shopped around to other clubs, there is a clearing of the decks going on. 
6. Brayden Ham is a player of interest for us and has been for a while
7. Nathan Jones has been told there is a real possibility he won't play a game in 2021. he's essentially been retained as an assistant coach, and to also provide some depth in case of an injury. my information is he won't play unless required to play as a midfielder.

So, that's a no then?

Makes sense.

correct :) now lets not derail another thread? 

PM is open if you feel like a chat :)

Apparently some can change the goal posts while others, like @Dr evil, can't.

Gotta love trade period. 

Oh god, it's incredible isn't it. i guess the difference is my information doesn't come from facebook and bigfooty for whatever difference that makes.

I'd like to know what @Dr evil take on this is? What's your intel telling you?

It’s silly season. There is plenty happening. I’m sure there will be surprises

I am either missing the /jk tag or else you believe ISmith could still be headed our way - do you still think this? If so, interesting. What would make that series of events occur?

It’s a joke

Jed Anderson from North is still out of contract. Pacey midfielder. Anything going around about him @Dr evil?

His management are telling teams he's staying at North Melbourne. not sure what the hold up is on his extension but he's not gettable at this stage.

It has been reported that Buckley told Treloar that senior Filth players wanted him gone, so it seems like he will go somewhere. Hard to see how the Pies get someone to pay his contract and get good picks given they have severed the relationship.

The situation is a disgrace on collingwoods part

I hope his main detractors in the Smith thread, will now see fit to sing @Dr evil's praises in this thread.

To be fair mate. This one was common knowledge 

For those interested I am hearing that we’d be very keen to have a chat to Adam treloar. If the pies are willing to pay a decent chunk of his salary we’d see him as a fit on the opposite wing to Langdon.

Look mate, you're the one who looks like the grand goose on this forum and the joke is most clearly and certainly on you, not the posters overreacting. 

You say you "weren't taking things too seriously" but stated on several occasions in bold that Smith was 100% going to be a demon and not to worry. Think about how silly that is for a minute. Very silly. 

The irony is that YOU were the one that took things too seriously, so rather than deflect in all of this and make out as if you were just "having a laugh", swallow some of that pride and take the criticism that you, and only you, set yourself up for. 

Several posters on this forum have good intel but post when a deal is being finalised. Maybe take that approach next time eh? 

??? Mate. A lot of my posts were jokes with other posters. I posted info I was very confident in and I’ll cop criticism for it and have been via this and via pm. I even went as far as apologising at one point. So definitely taking the criticism on board.
 

All people who have been having a crack at me have really achieved is made other posters who have information feel the need to be ultra cautious about posting it which is pretty horrible on a fan forum. 

Jeremy Cameron will get to the cats. The giants in my opinion have weighed the situation up and decided two later first rounders is a better net return than the compo pick. It’ll get done 

Ben brown will 100% be a demon. 100% there is absolutely no doubt.

to be clear. Because clearly not everyone gets it..  I AM JOKING

I'm sure you'll get over it..... eventually.

Don’t be so sure mate. I’m genuinely shocked at some of the reactions haha. Some legitimate cry babies on here. Toys out the cot completely

I have no problem with the mail that @Dr evil provided. It was the method by which that mail kept arriving.

He was completely  smug in his protestations that Smith would 100% be a Demon. He didn't endear himself with me and it seems many others on here with his assertions that ultimately proved 100% wrong.

You cannot be half pregnant. 

He may have good mail and good contacts and I would not have minded if he got this one wrong, as things can definitely change very quickly at this time of the year, if he hadn't been so arrogant with his declarations.  

Arrogant? Pretty rough I reckon mate. Pretty sure 99% of posters could recognise I was having a bit of a laugh. I was confident in my info but things clearly changed but I certainly don’t think I was arrogant. Outside of a few posters I think most worked out I wasn’t taking things too seriously pretty quickly. 

What's a bigger disaster for the cats, signing Smith, (who i still believe is coming to the Dees) and losing Menegola. or not starting Dangerfield in the middle at the start of the 3rd quarter in the grand final?

Looks like Jaidyn Stephenson is about as popular as me on here.

this would be the first time in some time (last three, four seasons) that we've been openly targeting a player and missed out on them?

When our interest becomes public we generally have a pretty good success rate.

Just now, Moonshadow said:

Apologies? Mate, you're not supposed to apologise when you get it wrong on Demonland. You should be making excuses and covering your tracks!

BTW, I knew you were wrong all along. Smithy told me last week

Consider the toys out of the cot moon. Speak to you in two weeks.

@Dr evil won't be the first and last who gets it wrong. What I do hope is that it won't be the last that he posts info that he has.

You just keep feeding those Rumours doc.

Appreciate that dazzle. Apologies for the disappointment I’ve caused to any posters. its a strange time of the year 

Not a bad idea If we can bundle up Thomas and Phillips and offload TMAC

Think Andy will have his finger hovering over the 'delete post' button here for a while!

Keep posting evil doctor. Great that you can take it in your stride and not throw the toys out of the cot, unlike some others. Its certainly been a fun couple of days in this thread 

Youll get more hits than miss, I reckon

 

 

I like to set a good example for the more short tempered of us moon!

Ah well, guess we start getting excited about Brodie Smith now hey? Has he ordered the polo yet?

He might have it tucked away somewhere. Maybe he can wear it when he’s feeling like his alter ego. Demon smith
