"Lever can't kick mind you, and we just gave up our best user..." im just stirring the pot mate...nothing malicious..

But you were so adamant in your previous two posts?

Ummmmm...he's referring to the "kids" or younger players on our list.

Personally I think we need a mature aged ruckman more than anything!

This trade could have been drawn out to the last day with both clubs refusing to give an inch. the fact it's been done early on day 4 suggests to me Mahoney wanted it locked away in order to move onto other deals. Maybe we gave up more than we initially intended to but it's possible it was done to achieve things this trade period that will benefit us even further, rather than holding out on draft positioning..

Not so sure it is. If watts moves on we will have 3 second round picks to play with.

Correct....We've become so accustomed to the value of draft picks over the past ten years, its become like an addiction to hold onto them for dear life...

Mate, anything that has Terry dick head Wallace's name attached is pure tripe.

We gave Essendon pick 29 for Hibberd, so 29 for Watts in comparison is like winning Super 66.

He's reading from the AFL site so you're not even comparing the same articles. Everybody relax...

Agreed, if that deal gets done it's Lever for pick 10 and an approx 5-8 spot downgrade. Sign the bloody papers.

It's unfreakenbelievable that people can't comprehend this....

Yeah possibly...it did mention the possibility of other pick exchanges..I'd like to think that would be the case..

Agreed. This next year is a superdraft stuff gives me the runs. On top of what you've already said..the player drafted this year has already been in the system for a year and is further developed. A club in our position wants players ready to go sooner rather than later..

I took the article as saying what you've said, but we hand over our Watts compo as well...so: Out: Pick 10, next years 1st round pick and Watts compo pick. In: Lever, pick 18 (if Cameron deal gets done)

Can one of the mods kindly ban me from looking at this thread any further..

Smash west end cans and smoke bongs.

The irony is that if he does leave, he most likely will start to train harder and do those "extras" and finally become the player we always hoped he would be...

Proposing at 21 years of age? He can't be too smart then..

Clayton booked in for media training at 8am tomorrow I'm led to believe. Not sure why..

I too can see Melbourne fans wearing Jack's board shorts to games as a form of protest for years to come...

Is "he" from Thailand? If so...that's not the Best and Fairest mate.

Bit early to be on the gas isn't it mate?
