The discussion is fine - this is a football forum - a discussion over the merits of trading someone is par for the course. What is also par for that course, is the judgement of posters and the 'discussions' they seemingly can't stop faffing on about - so continue with the stumbling around in the dark looking for your proverbial pants.

They play keepings off footy and avoid contests. I’m sorry, but we are built to beat teams like this. We win the contested footy and then let teams off the hook on the outside. If we don’t switch off like we have done for 2 of the 8 Quarters we have played them - we will win. Will totally understand a bit of stage fright - in the first 5 mins - then it is time to get to work.

That was a reference to Oscar. Weideman is tracking normally - his ruckwork is a point of difference that he can build a career out of it if he can stay relevant as a forward like today.

He's a gun footy player - he can do whatever he wants on the field. Garry Lyon was the same - put him wherever and he will be great. Getting back to the point of this misguided thread - the only time we trade him is if he requests a trade - you don't shop stars and he is one. End of story.

The more people we can throw through there the better for our depth.

Yes, but his stints through the middle freed him up and helped out other mids. I am not saying he is going to not be allowed in the forward 50 - just that he should go through the middle more - he can do it.

He knows what to do in there. Excellent footy brain, huge tank, good in close, great hands - you didn’t see him in there earlier in the year?

Get him in the middle more

We aren't building the cake so to speak, we are in icing territory and we need skills and outside talent to take the next step and win a flag.

This is driving me nuts; I have bitten my proverbial tongue but... Three dots in a row is an 'ellipsis' and it is used to replace superfluous text and I use it as a way of leading the reader to a 'open question' or statement. But three commas in a row is not anything. It is usually followed by the 'sticky keys' popup that comes up wondering whether you need help easing use of the keyboard and avoid injuries. ,,, Just no.

He is stalling.

My problem is I don't think the faith in Oscar is being repaid. If we are putting together a backline from a healthy list, I don't know if either is in it.

It's about 97%...

Mate, you have no idea...

That kick to Kent for the sealer was just emblematic of his growing maturity. Excellent.

What a time to throw this into the fire... I would prefer Hogan stays and you go.

There is no negative emoji to put onto posts so I will say this: Those that want to trade Hogan are betraying their lack of footy knowledge and intelligence. And they are also revealing they don’t know what ‘drives’ football clubs. Hogan playing hurt for the team must give a little bit extra for the players and he has my appreciation and admiration as a supporter. He was also in the discussion for AA earlier in the year. Beggars belief some of your neuroses, Land.

Is sore and fighting through it. He is a beast. We are not making the most of our two fantastic tall forwards. Leave him alone.

Highly likely that even if we win only one more we could have a home final. Assuming we are competitive in the other two games. If Haw beats Sydney in the last round they will be top4, if they don’t we could be 5th. Dont see much value in that second win unless there is more drama around us.

Titus is good. @Big Demon is bad. 2 weeks? Roundhouse off the ball that was hard enough to cause ‘unviable’ teeth... Go watch UFC.

Not a great look, out for the year, love to get him to the Dees.

So the poster formerly known as Deeluded, who is currently using the moniker that sounds out 'deviate,' is stretching sane and coherent thought... How does anyone react to that anymore?

I don't know, I have my moments.

What the others said. Also, you misspelled ‘negative’...
