I don’t know about that… we’d be paying a substantial portion of Trac’s contract as would the Pies, assuming he’s still contracted (I’ve no clue), be paying fair slice of JdG’s; not to mention that they’ve moved on Flanders and others, who would clear a fair amount of cap space.

@Rockets , is that you? That is remarkably close to your post on page 140 😉

Consensual?

We’re getting Sir Anthony Hopkins now??😵‍💫

Understand, and agree.

It’s not political, but I can see why you might think that. Anyway, we can agree to leave the discussion and yes, I’m always hopeful that we might experience success. At least I got to see a GF in ‘21 (albeit on TV) as I only got to listen on the radio when I was a kid.

You’re way off in my case; I’m regularly checking in on the AFL app to see what developments have occurred… but as far as the footy media are concerned, and I’m sure you’d have to agree, they would usually be all over something like this! I mean, apparently channel 9 I think it was, used The DeeBrief’s (Facebook group) photo of Humphrey in a hoodee walking with Chunk and King in their secret meeting, on the same day it occurred; the fact that there’s just crickets/silence in this instance, makes me think that they did their due diligence and their investigations turned up nothing worth reporting.

Literally two posters mentioned the ‘medical’, and you call that multiple… there’s every chance that you both have the same source connected to the club… I will apologise when it appears in the media. And talking of the media, as I posted elsewhere, I’d say that those media pundits trawl sites such as this in search of ‘scoops’, yet so far nothing, nada, zilch, zip, not a peep out of any of them…why wouldn’t you say that is? Ok, I’ll give you the fact that a lot of your posts are not trade related, so apologies for my generalisation, however, there you go again with your need to boast… seriously, who cares about how many reactions your posts have had, who cares about how much money you have given to the club (every single person who has a membership is financially and emotionally invested - that doesn’t work on some sort of dollar scale)… go through the Humphrey thread and tell me which posts are getting the biggest numbers of likes etc… I’ll save you the time, it’s the posts offering false hope or those critical of the GCS for not handing over a player who hasn’t even nominated us or for only offering the outrageously ‘cheap’ (sarcasm) picks 7&8 for Trac! As far as your last statement about having better things to do than troll, trolling isn’t always about simply being disruptive, it is often a desire to be praised and recognised. I’m not saying that that is you (I already explained why I considered you a troll - I’ll apologise for that as well), but trolling is not purely mischievous behaviour… look no further than certain world cough leaders.

It’s certainly not showing up when I do a Google search, it’s not mentioned on the AFL site/app…in fact, I think the only place I’ve seen it mentioned is here on Demonland. I’d be happy to be proven wrong. The weird thing is that it’s been mentioned by two different people, each with a supposedly reliable source with club connections, so could it be that their source is the same person? I’d be pretty sure that the media pundits scan club related sites such as Demonland in search of rumours etc, but why wouldn’t they have run with the ‘Bailey Humphrey does medical at Casey’ story? I’m really hoping that it’s true and that he did do a medical with the club… I guess we’ll find out hopefully today.

Agree 💯%

It tends to get ignored on here, but I’ve suggested (influenced by my son who is much better informed than I), that those who think 7&8 is a bad deal for a player who, let’s face it, is well off his best, and has never been great with his disposal, I’ve suggested they check out the Chris Judd Wiki page. Just look at the deal made to get one of the greatest of all time, when he was much younger than Trac, and already incredibly well credentialed (just look at the list of his achievements up until that move), to Carlton… some posters here would have been screaming “daylight robbery!!” while passing out on the floor!

The funny thing about the draft, and one of the variables that is entirely unpredictable, is that some top picks just cannot adapt to the high pressure of AFL, while others way down the draft order, start to shine; weird, I know, but one reason why I’d be loathe to write of these picks in a ‘supposedly’ weak draft.

Hey, I’ll be perfectly happy to swallow my words and apologise if your claims are proven to be based in fact. Given that Ghostwriter has heard a similar claim re Humphrey, I may well be offering such an apology, but let’s wait and see how it turns out. A quick question: How would you view someone who suddenly appeared out of nowhere and started making claims about three different trade developments (this one, the Hawthorn offer and the Humphrey development)? How much credence would you lend such posts, particularly given the number of spurious posts that appear around this time of the year (past and current)? As an aside, what does your financial connection to the club have to do with anything, other than to tell us how well cashed up you are? Most people on Demonland, I would assume, are paid up members of the MFC, so as far as I’m concerned, that puts us all on an even footing as we all invest only what we can afford (I guess that goes for non paid up supporters as well).

Hey Macca, vampires don’t run, they float!

He needs someone to dress him… he put his shirt on backwards!!

B,B,B,B,Bailey’s a vampire? He casts no shadow!! 😳😳😳

Even Photoshop now has a built In AI function. It’s actually not too bad for touching images up.

The poster that mentioned it joined Demonland last Wednesday, so the poster was, understandably, taken with a barrel of salt. Just how reliable is your reliable source… I’m wondering if I’ll need to be preparing a written apology.

One small problem I can see with that… Humphrey has not nominated us, and to the best of my knowledge, nowhere has it been reported that he wants to come to us. If he does, great, but in the meantime, your scenario cannot happen.

Demon4FiveMinutes has pretty much proven themself to be a troll, with the post regarding Humphrey’s changing manager and having a medical with the Dees today.

Had you mentioned that previously? I don’t recall you having done so, but there is so much to read here, that I could easily have overlooked it.

Humphrey’s just a prawn in GCS’s game.

I would have hoped to have heard something by last Fryday, but that’s what happens when you have an unreliable sauce.

So, the steaks are high.

There’s a big difference between a four bit processor and a 64 bit processor.
