That is a load of bullsh ...

As I pointed out a week ago this kid would make the perfect fit - http://forums.demonland.com/index.php?show...amp;hl=sibosado

And now looks like our best option at # 1 in the PSD now, doesn't he?

That would be right. The word "sibosado" means "scorpion" in Greek.

Not us. We'll give Hawthorn a flogingin the first round and go on to bigger and better things from there on.

Today's the second lot of delistings. If Carroll's still on the list after today, does this mean he's staying?

I find it a bit odd that we have # 1 pick in the PSD and we haven't invited a single outsider to train with us in the lead up to this event. I know we're on an economy drive but this is ridiculous!

Suggest that you go out to your local newspaper repository and by a copy of the current edition of Inside Football which quotes Lee Harvey Oswald on Watts (twice). I think you'll find he's pretty happy with Watts and I doubt we're going to pick anyone else. Even if we do, it's not his job to recruit and if that's the reason for him pissing off (highly doubtful) then that decision is a great one!

Seems that they're thinking about bringing in a QC to mediate between MFC & Carroll & his management according to a snippet in today's HUN. Sounds like a good idea.

That wasn't the point I was making. Leaving the person aside, why should the team with first choice be disadvantaged simply because the player wants to go elsewhere? It defeats the whole purpose of the draft!

Leaving aside the issue of Cousins, his character and his various indiscretions over the years, why should it matter whether he wants to play with us? After all, this is a draft and we have the first pick. If we can't select an available player with our first pick it turns the whole draft into a joke!

Driver for Didak & H. Shaw no doubt!

If he ends up at Carltank he will be at a D grade club.

I don't get it. Why on earth doesn't the AFL release all of the draft camp results? What's the big secret?

The muppets at the AFL get paid big money to do their job. They don't have to tell lies to the media to get their point across. This little worm deserves the sack and the MFC is owed an apology or failing that, at least give us the priority draft pick that should go with being the bottom team for two years running.

And keep our fingers crossed that before he gets in the cab, he doesn't knock the crap out of any former teammates or racially vilify any innocent bystanders.

Funny that. Even when Collingwood was woeful a few years ago, it got a decent run with Friday night features the following year. Same with Carlton. At least no-one can say we're not entitled to massive compensation in the millions for the unfair playing field the AFL presents us with every year.

I can see a lot of Melbourne fans doing cartwheels over the prospect of this trade and it would be in our interests to dispose of the problem. But don't misunderstand the fact that, if he kept his off field issues under control (and most of these in the past have been off season issues), Carroll would be a handy player for the Saints especially in view of the doubt about Matt Guire's future and the fact that Max Hudghton will probably be in his last year. Carroll played a couple of blinders late in the season at Sandringham and his game against Frankston as a pinch hittter in the ruck earned him 3 Liston votes. St. Kilda will probably get him for next to nothing and he might be a bonus to a club in their stage of the cycle.

... but does it get any more bums on seats?

Until Nudge says it's going to happen, it won't happen.

Green at Carlton would be a natural alliance. They would make him lieutenant to Chri$ Judd in the environmental sanitation department of the company and he could be their second token "greeny" .

Good read. Like the Judd reference.

Richmond is apparently in the lead for Seaby's services - Tigers leading the hunt for Eagles big man and you won't believe it but Caaaaarlton is in the hunt for him as well: The Blues have also put in a bid to lure Cooper Cronk away from the Melbourne Storm and are believed to be considering trialling Usain Bolt as an international rookie. The trio will play for next to nothing but will be excused from training once a week to fulfill their commitments to the Visy Environmental Safety Programme.
