7 and 8 last year would've been a good return. 7 and 8 this year doesn't enthuse me at all.

Hoping imbibes a few too many and logs on with some loose lips?

I'm just loving everyone tagging @demonforever who hasn't been on this forum since 2013.

It's unfathomable it's come to this. It's not just on the players either, Goodwin has been sacked but this is a whole club meltdown for allowing it to happen.

But if those picks helped land them Petracca by on-trading them to us then they do want/need them.

I'm one of them and he speaks for me

Not when two of them are Jefferson and Tholstrup and two are unknown quantities in a weak draft. Sounds like a platform for destitution.

This will be a disaster if it eventuates.

The actions now aren't a trainwreck. The actions that led us to this situation are a complete and utter trainwreck.

I was basing it on them getting picks from Hawks for Humphrey and then on trading. So if Hawks give them 8 or 9 (whatever it is now) plus extras Suns hold 7, 8 & 9 and pass on two of those to us for Trac. They still have enough points for Academy picks then.

They can send the picks to us for Trac though.

@old55 this is what you mean by ad hominem, right?

You know he can't, his post will get deleted and account suspended Pretty sure his manager would've been involved in discussions at some point.

Eagles Rams Cowboys

Mate I was once a Tigger but this club has a way of bringing out the Eeyore in us all 😞🤣

Next minute Humphrey to Hawks for 8 and future 1st Melbourne receive 7 & 8 for Petracca (Suns keep 6) 😭

Tom's still stuck on page 29, give him a minute to catch up 😉

He could also suffer career threatening injuries, not have a medal and not have a huge contract thrown at him in 2 years time. Who knows.

Could land the next Jefferson and Tholstrup 🤔

Surely that's come from his manager (via discussiona with the club)

Not like it could bite us though. We haven't for example ended up with a guy like Bailey Laurie instead of Max Holmes because we were two picks further down the draft order.

Points are a garbage metric, pick 12 is worth more than pick 23 & 27 combined every day of the week.

I would take pick 50 if they pay majority of his salary

What about the behaviour of Oliver, sweep it under the rug as "everyone has issues" all you want but he has taken advantage of and spat in the face of everyone who has put their trust and support in him starting with Gawn and all the way down to the supporters. He needs to accept responsibility for the path that has led here, this isn't something that just happened because King doesn't like mids that can't kick. Yeah maybe the club (incl Goodwin and the Board) has been culpable in letting this culture fester but the new mob are cleaning the slate and can you blame them? Bottom line is this situation was not good for anyone and wouldn't have led to future success so it's time to cut bait, best for both parties.
