Moonshadow

It's a joke phrase. A bit like "military intelligence"

Except that he appears to not want to go within about 100km of us. That and Geelong are apparently the FA club of his choice. Kinda helps if he agrees to go to a club for the trade to happen. Nice dream though.

While I sometimes think the apparent lack of interest that, (a)Melbourne are showing in other team's gun players, or (b)these guns are showing in coming to the Dee's, could be concerning, I have to remind myself that Team Roos is in charge and we are no longer a club of loose lips. As Roos wrote in that email posted somewhere here, don't believe the media hype. It is still very early days. Hearing that teams like Richmond are into all and sundry tells me we are better off working quietly to attract talent. We're the underdog, but most players and managers would be aware of our supposed cap space and MFC are vastly improved upon where we were 3 years ago, on and off field.

Good to see you back Nudge. Heard any rumours?

Has a FA offer ever been matched by the player's current club with the view to trade for value? Not aware of one yet. If that happens, how about we get in on the mix: Adelaide get Geelong's 2015 and 2016 first round picks and Jimmy Toumpas. Geelong gets Danger and gives up 2 x 1st rounders and Horlin-Smith (or insert alternative GFC player name here). Melbourne gives up Toumpas and gets Horlin-Smith (or, as above)

Pretty good team. Hard to argue with that.

Swann is talking bs. He knows full well we didn't get pick 3 as compo for Chip, we got band 1 compo which because of our ladder position turned into pick 3. Same compo rules apply to all clubs. Lower clubs who get FA compo should get a higher pick for that compo. For Leuie or Kruze to be touted as band 1 compo is laughable.

Kreuzer failed a number of club medicals. He's shot. Not going anywhere.

Swap of Watts for Yarran?

Please get drunk and post more often Gen Dee!

A man who we are pinning many hopes on Biff. A man who may become the next Stevie J, or Jake Stringer, or even Malcolm Turnbull...... Surely you're not considering surfing other anatomical topics on a Friday night after a long week at work?

GWS will do whatever gets the best deal for them, given the reality of the situation. I imagine they'd let AT go into the psd only as a last resort, as they get zero for him. Would love them to nominate us as their preferred destination for him though!

Salary cap issues and wanting Dixon are the answers to your first question. But who the hell knows, anything is possible.

Collingwood so far are the winner out of that 3 way deal.

Give it a rest Stue. You're fast becoming a real bore.

WTF? Brayshaw has done far more in his first year than any of those guys mentioned did in theirs. I think it's our time you are wasting.

Understanding of others isn't your strongpoint Ben. But yes, you generally are more puppy dog-like these days.

Beck to your condescending best Hannibal. What happened to the love?

Seriously good player. Would love him to become a Dee. Can't see it happening though. A lot of rumours flying around about many players. Will be an interesting trade period this year.

I have a stack of Hawthorn supporting mates who would be more than happy for us to take him and get FA compo in return. Not enough strings to his bow.

Seriously Norm? Highly, highly unlikely.

I bloody well call it Invasion Day and I don't suffer any of the garbage that Goodes does. It is what it is.

Ladies and Gents, I had a quick catch up with Uncle Bitter this afternoon at his Romsey mansion. Actually, his dwelling covers half of the Romsay postcode, such is his... er, it's girth. I was near Hanging Rock at the time and I heard the sirens calling: "Miranda...Miranda!"...... Little did I know it was Uncle Bitter's missus calling out my username. Can hardly blame her. As I arrived he offered the obligatory beer. I expected VB or maybe a crownie, but no, he put forward a Corona and asked me "lemon or lime wedge?" Sacrilege! As the local country GF was being played, BBO was chewing on Coronas as if they were lolly water. Well, actually, they are. Anywhoo.... He looked refreshed and is looking forward to returning to our noble surrounds. Stuie beware.

Oh my god, you made me spit beer out of my nose! Lol!

FMD. Pineapple, did you just crawl out from under a rock? He hasn't been booed this season to put him off his goal kicking. Nice try though.
