i think it may have been an oblique reference to a sponsor for the back of jumper rather than the Bank of Japan

It was generally a good session and well received by the impressive crowd .I thought the stand out was Joel Smith .He clunked everything and looked the fittest I have seen him .His kicking was ok as well

Shouldn't be in Freo colours .An ill conceived and particularly poorly executed trade .However he is opposition and can no longer be a favourite .

Or the " Why did we ever do that trade For Jesse thread "!

All a bit late .No point asking these questions unless you need to somehow internally justify an unjustifiable trade .Perhaps there was some to date unreported attempts at lateral negotiations involving Brayshaw and others but as best as I can see we just took what Freo offered which was not nearly enough.

He is an absolute cracker who has had an indescribably unlucky run.He will be be AA in 2019 but sadly not with us.

if it will make her feel better you can tell her that I also broke into tears and said no i dont want Jesse to leave ..But my dog is named Chunk and not Jesse

Thats a victory for optimism over reality.We were hooked gutted and filleted .Absolutely incensed that Bell is being referred to as a genius

riches ?.The riches were in the Shiel and Beams trades .

your completely wrong.We had a once in a generation key forward and gave him a way for peanuts.If it makes you fell warm and fuzzy by saying that he will return then good luck to you .He has gone .End of story .

The Former no 5 pick was shown the door by a club already facing a mass exodus because he had been seriously tapped on the head too many times.He was of little or no trade value.May is solid but no Hogan .I am with Dr D on this one.

May is not more value to us than Hogan . May is a solid defender.Hogan is player we could have built a premiership challenge around ,That opportunity is lost .

we got shafted ; simple as that . i agree with Dr D that you would not have to complete a Negotiation 101 Course to get 6 and 23 .We wanted 6 and 5 .What a joke .Overs for Lever unders for Hogan ,what a result .Nice guys come last and that is where we will end up with these children handling negotiations. Im absolutely gutted .

probably for Jesse the way this is sliding

Stay staunch .We said picks 5 and 6 and lets maintain that type of stance .Whatever we do dont let us again be out negotiated .We paid overs for Levers ,lets not get unders for Jesse .Tomorrow is the day. Mahoney dont let me down again..

Gee there are some major disappointments mentioned in these posts but Darren Cuthbertson is the one that really hurts. He was brought through the system after being zoned from Epping in a manner which suggested the Club saw him as a future star.He had a full season in the Twos and I recall him kicking 4 goals in a quarter in a final against Carlton reserves. He exploded on to the senior scene with 17 goals in 3 games including a b on g against Collingwood and a match winning 5 goals against Brisbane at the G.Then nothing;nothing at all. He had a short spell at Fitzroy and then returned to Epping.Robbie Walters kicked a couple of bags as a fast leading straight kicking full forward but his lack of size was always going to count against him .As an aside, he claimed at his sentence for larceny as a servant from the bank that his financial woes were caused by being delisted by Melbourne.So we get blamed for everything.The Cockatoo -Colins btothers were not disappointing because neither ever looked any good.A bit like the Rugolo brothers.The Cockies show how fortunate we are to have CAC and why Richard Griffiths is languishing with the QAFL
