You don’t see why the AFL would be concerned about giving North, 3 number 1 picks in a row and adding to that, an inflated compo pick for an ordinary footballer in McKay, which would rob the worst performing team of the year, of the player it would take with pick 2, which it currently holds. Well the rest of the AFL competition do and I don’t think I can assist anymore with helping you understand that.

We bomb whoever is in the forward line.

Would be hilarious if the Suns rest several more players like Geelong and a young North side want to win, despite who they have on the field. Despite resting players and switching them around, what else can Clarko do to ensure a loss. If a miracle happened and WC get 1, the only way for us to get Reid, is for Curtin to absolutely convince North and Hawks he will go home in 2 years. For one of them to take him in those circumstances, would be extremely foolish. Another JHF situation, which would heave the fans furious. I think this Reid situation is just too difficult to happen for us.

He has obviously got a lot of pleasure out of dumping garbage on us.

They won’t get assistance, but neither will North, that robs them of their desired player Curtin.

GNF that is very sad news you have passed on about your health. I wish you and I am sure the whole of DL also joins me in wishing you all the best. I hope you receive more joy from the Dees and that you are with us for much longer than you or your Doctors think. I have enjoyed your posts and rumours of course don’t always come true. I have always looked forward to reading footy rumours and taken them with a grain of salt. All the best mate, thinking of you.

He is actually an ordinary player and often injured.

Not happening. The Eagles have been a basket case and AFL won’t allow that to happen. Curtin will be an Eagle.

Michael Warner has just started crying.

Yes. We should have 18 play 9, to see who gets number 1 draft pick, or plays finals. That would be fun.

The last round is descending into chaos. Tanking to the fore for improved draft picks and the AFL will of course totally ignore it. Cats dropping everyone and looking to play the bootstudder. Better draft picks the reward. Dogs to get their first win at Geelong in 100 years, with Bevo declaring himself a master coach. North scared to death their players won’t listen and might try to win and thereby lose Harley. Will play only robotic incompetents this week. Gold Coast dropping stars to get a better pick to swap for points picks to get 3 young stars. Clubs outside the 8 might play their cheer squads to improve draft picks. Media urging clubs to tank. Farcical end to a season.

As gs77 said above, life is so unfair sometimes. Hope his moments with the boys gave him some pleasure. Sincere condolences to all his family and friends. RIP little Dee.

Any North player that can mark, kick, handball, or even just run, will be managed.

Grundy off to Sydney, Hickey just retired.

Incorrect. Grundy has a deal with Pies separately, that they pay their share directly to him. If he leaves, new club will pay balance the same as we did. That’s two clubs and not even sure of the rule you mentioned.

Apparently eyeing a farm out Corio way.

Depends how much we want Duursma and if Curtin can convince Hawks he will go home in 2 years.

LDU, Simpkin, Wardlaw, Sheezel, Thomas, Reid, George, Larkey and more to come, with Clarkson, they won’t be cellar dwellers much longer.

Hibbo possibly concussed.

I don’t know why people haven’t realized this.

It’s a certainty. Players will have mystery injuries and illnesses during the week. Still need Hawks to beat Dockers, but Lewis and Newcombe could return.

That will not happen now, as AFL have got out of it, as Roos get best player in the country to add to what they already have. Also they need WC to have 2.

The reason for splitting picks was probably only for Reid. They want Curtin and will take him at 2, as what could they split 2 for and still get him.

Agree. Laurie was ok and you are correct, he is fighting for the Spargo spot. Think he may still leave.

Yes but they still have Curtin. North could have called their bluff and said take Reid and we take Curtin. Then swap them 2 years later anyway. Both clubs now get their first choice player.
