Agree, as they have one of, if not the oldest list in the AFL. They won't be able to replace the older players with high end talent on Tassie's arrival.

I think you will find Joe Richards to the Power is what will get the deal done with 13 and whatever else.

I don’t think I am foolhardy for thinking that with improvement from youngsters like JVR, Windsor, Kolt, Jeffo , Verrall etc and fit Clarry, Tracc, May, Lever, Bowey etc, and the addition of a couple of really talented draftees, that we will improve on the side that lost by under a goal, to 4 of the top 5 teams, including the Premier at home in the last kick of the game. We will get far more from a good injury run and a player buy in on reverting to that selfless team game, than we will get from a couple of overpriced good players that are really just coming for money or a super payout.

This is the club we cleared their best tagger to for a steal as they widely admit. Think it will get done late in trade period.

Clarry’s isn’t much better.

Maybe don’t show this to a certain someone, it may only cause more disruption.

A 5.00 o'clock shadow

We didn't, our star player did.

But we don't and everyone knows it.

Of course. Left Pies, now joins Blues, on I would imagine a very nice salary package. Now Blues and Pies continue the fight for Houston.

Bagging Melbourne has become an art form.

Barrett is a North fan.

Joe Richards just requested a trade to Port, so you can safely assume Pies will get Houston, using Richards and Noble trade return, to get the deal done, with maybe some steak knives pick swapping.

Yep. Suppose we have to hope his family needs are sufficient to sway GWS.

He doesn't play in ay of those three guy's positions.

McCartney will probably drag this into next week to prove they tried to keep him.

Surely a possible Derkson trade is bigger news.

Sounds like Cats don’t have more, given Smith coming, so unless a player is involved and that doesn’t seem to be happening, he won’t be a Cat, this year at least. Then if another club doesn’t get involved, that Clarry would be interested in, he is staying.

That would have been a problem.

So as an Aussie he said it that way instead of the Italian way. That is the least of his and our problems.

How did he pronounce it?

We wouldn’t have bid 27 and they would have matched absolutely given all the circumstances.

Pretty sure he will be a Dee, McCartney just posturing.

Can someone highlight a story where McLure slammed his club Carlton, just for my interest?

That’s what McCartney is probably pushing for a better deal than his profile demands. We are quick to trade players for unders and are probably seen as a soft touch and then pay overs to trade in to get the deal done. Imagine paying what you get for Nibbler for an untried player of 23 years old. 3rd in our B and F last night and a Premiership player who never misses a game for a maybe. We traded Bedford for 44 and he is now a regular in their team and as described by them one of their most important tagging/pressure/goal assist players.
