we've actually done it before. was fun too

don't think anyone was fooled, just a bit of a fun diversion. at least i thought so.

no,no, pro dee, you misunderstand me. i'm not saying we had a lot of interest, just that there *may* be more than said of the reasons why we weren't interested, such as culture issues, asking salary, asking trade, acquisition of lewis etc all or some of which might have meant we didn't get past stage 1. but i'm sure we at least had a sniff, like we would do with any player potentially on the market.......that's all i'm saying. i would agree that it probably didn't progress very far at all, but we don't know the whole story and probably never will.

we heard what mahoney said, (and i don't doubt it) but it wasn't necessarily the full picture. he said enough for public consumption.....that's all

27 is also a very "woody" word, md

i like tba, angry. has a bit of mongrel and a dead-eye dick

dunno why i said that. had a seniors fart and got it back to front. maybe i was subconsciously trying to be sarcastic but yes. the poster who said closer to 19 probably got it right

anyone know what bomberblitz are saying?

huh? richmond's 2nd rounder next year more likely to be in the 30's

"we" probably did talk to his manager though, and it never got enough traction to talk to rockliff himself (for whatever reasons)

was a very fat tongue in cheek, nasher

is "we never spoke to rockliff" like saying "the coach has our full support" or "he is a required player" etc

he'll be 30 by start of next season. His price should be way down. He could be a placeholder for the weid for 2 years and be backup/support for maximus might be worth it if he comes cheap

how does that help the filth with their f/s's?

maybe 2 more mcdonalds or a hunt?

there is a whole day to go, luci.......mahoney can still weave some magic

i like the symmetry of next years 2nd rounder last year we gave a 2nd rounder for melksham and had to wait a year. this time they can wait for a year......only fair imo

may be stronger but not necessarily deeper. next year's 2nd round pick will be in the 30's (maybe well into?)

not necessarily court proceedings, nasher first step is greivances tribunal which is fairly quick. if successful, essendon could theoretically go to court I doiubt in current circumstances and for lots of reasons they would do that However, the decision to go to grievances tribunal is up to hibberd and the indications are that he has not been so inclined (but who knows?)

based on all this denial i reckon rockliff is in the bag

you mean thursday?

so this thread will go for another 12 months?

wouldn't be surprised if they have to pay part of cloke's contract. he was on big biccies

quite chuffed

beats me. don't think next year's ist rounder would be enough
