  1. potential rookie imo.
  2. what, you don't think maxxy has responded because of the criticism & pressure, this year, the last of his current contract?
  3. that could be dangermous munga
  4. never mind VC, the cricket is On, & the poms are just about Roo Ted.... they are like witches hats, atmo. all getting mown down by bad drivers.
  5. leave off Motlop for a moment. wish list *give Gawn to the blues for Yarran & a pick. *grab Nathan Vardy from the cats, as they have others in front, atmo. (Garland?rfa) *grab Selwood F/Ay *grab Prestia.... player/s &/or 2nd Rnd pick (Dawes? Garland? Grimes? Howe?) *go after Aish or Omeara, see what is required. *enquire about Tomlinson/Plowman....... (Howe?) *use our first pick in the draft (Weideman/Parish)
  6. I agree, & we'll still be light on for leadership after another year or two, after Crossy's finally let up. Our kids are all still too young, & our 26ers aren't so flash, except for the Jones boy.
  7. no, but they may be interested in an extra draft pick?
  8. no, it doesn't Jaded. its in our interests, & in his... IF he indeed goes? there are reasons
  9. dee-luded replied to Whispering_Jack's post in a topic in Other Sports
    just great to see the new team going well with all our boys doing a $terling job
  10. ...lucky Mr Hunt wasn't born German around the time of 2nd WW.
  11. I had an emerging talent just a couple of weeks back... new girl around the corner. that did it. brought out the worst in moi. but then read about this flogging of a dead horse, & alas, what a waste.
  12. needs basis suns need leaders, maturity, & level headed-ness. onfield/offield leaders. Dawes would help then to get that boat pointed the right way round. Howe would be handier to the Lions or the Giants, for the same reasons.
  13. still sleepy; when I read this post, I went to Dions profile to check his current number ??? & then stopped. seems there is a vacuum of maturity & leadership, up on the northern sands.
  14. unwise for clubs to make master unaflable you don't like him when he's mad, especially when on record as trying to reinstate the integrity of the draft. howe is this so you may ask?
  15. clubs Interest in Howe, I imagine the list would read like 1 Giants/Lions equally 2 ................................ 3 Suns 4 5 Freo 6 Blues/Crows 7 Saints
  16. unless he's on the merry go round some deals will already have been discussed & agreed to, by all party's concerned. time will tell
  17. somehow I do not think he is the only part of this puzzle. i think i'm hearing a merry go round starting up
  18. somehow I keep getting the feeling that he is tied up in a 3 way, or more, trade swap. & knowing the Lions have recently been shrewd since Lethal is back; & I cannot keep the Blues out of this picture. .... the Lions will also be getting background support from within the AFL, as we have. & so, those who the AFL have pull over, the GWS, Suns, Dees, Lions, & now Blues as well, I feel absolutely sure. So I see names like Murphy, poss' Gibbs, Yarren, Aish, Henderson, Howe, Watts, Dawes, Prestia, & others I haven't kept tabs on from the suns, & GWS players not getting games. I think Gillon will be aiming to even out the competition, Via player trading drafting, & the fixturing, as prime issues voiced in supporter polls... falling viewing & attendances will demand AFL attention, for the supporters to regain faith. as the generations after ours will not tolerate being loyal to a corrupted system. they just won't buy in.
  19. Ty has talent a lot of it. he's starting to learn. but if he went to say the Hawks or the Catters from the draft, he would be a star now. Environment is a huge part of the development of a young players mindset. & growth.
  20. he's a kid I was interested in up grabbing in his draft year, as well as Ty Vickery.. wanted Ty again over the past 2 years to give him a shot as well.. maybe too late for Ty now. he won't leave the Tiges now. Butcher has talent, & a strong hands. worth a look for a rookie spot.
  21. To me, Watts has gone from a Trade OUT... to an Open question mark ???? tempted to keep tempted to trade...... I don't like losing our draftees but sometimes?
  22. yeah Crossy has to go on we need mature leaders to keep the kids honest, as they mature... grimesy isn't that. even after Crossy isn't best 22; he should still be on the list in case any 'notty nosed kid, gets too big for his New Balances... then Crossy would come back in, whilst we sort the kid in the magoos. at this point Crossy is best 22, & he should go on.
  23. doesn't have to be big name from gws as in frost. There was one player I wanted most from GWS; that was Shiel, he's been signed up & our of equations at this point. If Roosy can pluck another from the depths of the GWS list, I'm right behind him. but for now we have to focus on mature players who remain available. Henderson, Prestia. others????
  24. a shallow draft year is a good year to offer up trade bait. we have to really push hard this year, to get players who want to get away from their clubs, to want to get onboard with the rednblue come on down Hendo & de priesta
