  1. sue...im sure they have thought all of this through....absolutely......?
  2. back to the future for the Dees...two rucks !!?
  3. why cant we have both.....( cue the meme) seriously... I said much earlier that Bell coming onboard might very likely change the complexion of this. I dont think it will however alter the outcome..( much )
  4. I hope Gaff didnt arrest his development
  5. Menzel Brown and Roughy were more dangerous than Buddy. Not just in goals but assists Its also about the holistic effect. May coming in changes the dynamic of our defence ( hopefully ) dramatically. In BIG games...defense is EVERYTHING,,,exhibit A : 29/9/2018 !!
  6. A hypothetical...nothing more Before Eagles win Premiership..Gaff just an Eagle..biding his time...do I dont I... maybe a shltload of money aint a bad thing. After Eagles win Premiership .. Gaff an outsider in his own neighbourhood now. Hard to re-bond with existing...was looking to fresh fields anyway....but maybe the lustre of a Cup is shinier now than before.. Option....somewhere just for money..lots... somewhere else where that Window is ajar...still going to get more than a fist-full of green !! Hmmmmmm
  7. What boat are you in ?? SS Today/Tomorrow: This boat is sailing into turbulent waters but with a view to taking all on thats before it and having a real crack. Living in the moment RMS Pasado-Munyana: This old barge aint going anywhere in too much of a hurry , just in case there's a storm, or a reef. In fact it just sails in circles.
  8. Just a question. If you had a pick 10, what can you get ? You get an early-ish roll of a die in a draft which might land you a decent player who in 2-3 years becomes serviceable after 40-50 games ( or might not ) OR Get you a very handy KPB with over a 10O games experience and ready to go...ready to impact. I know what I'd choose.
  9. You can never go back
  10. Or a new start might invigorate. Now I know this is a less than ideal analogy... it's all a bit like when your better half cheats on you. You don't ever go back to the 'normality' it once was. No one's cheated on Gaff ..but the others did something he didn't. If me. I'd leave. Fresh start..head down, bum up...get into it. If Gaff and looking at lists and prospects ...we leave the Nuff Norfs in the dust. FMD.. .. we're already 2nd fact for flag next year...wtf lol. Gaff is a mid.. who's midfield would you rather compliment ?
  11. That's nice Moonie...the lads of the FD will sleep soundly now I just like the idea of having a player just about all struggle to pronounce !!! ??? ( That, and he CAN play )
  12. This is still the biggest knock on Oscar. He's come a fair way in other areas but there's still this.
  13. An interesting take on it. I do agree if you weren't on the park you won't have the same bond. Some might suggest that for some that might make the hunger stronger but I'd be inclined to also think , if were I, what are the chances of back to back etc. That's very difficult. I think you can become a bit of an outsider after this sort of thing
  14. Might depend what they need to get what they want in other trades.
  15. We're going to just have to break that run then
  16. A really good game...great granny
  17. also...with any exchange of whatever...you might get change..there might be additional players or picks.. So many permutations. and yet some see it as just this for that. Its about the big picture....also called the list.
  18. You don't judge a single trade in isolation. You look at the whole trade period. I.e did you achieve your goals. If so ✓
  19. An easy way to deal with such things is to NEVER believe ANYTHING said for public consumption. Football isn't known for the 'truth"
  20. I more concerned with me seeing a flag, the club seeing flags, than Jesse. He can look after himself.
  21. if hes going...best he be gone...so to speak. Then you can concentrate on your new line ups and structures...NOW..why wait...a Premiership awaits laddy !!
  22. At the same time pragmatism must surely enter this fray. There is much to do during the circus visit and you dont want to finesse it tooo much for fear of missing a bus or two. I have every faith we'll get whats reasonable.. More the point I have faith we'll get the players we're targeting. Thats all that really matters...the numbers attached to picks is all but irrelevant to us
  23. It got there.. and it did
