Jaded No More

St Kilda willing to trade a first round pick. We are not. Embarrassing for who?

Port

Being interested and being able to do a trade is not the same thing. Pies are very interested in Trac.

Geelong wouldn’t have the draft capital, especially if you believe his other news that they’re getting Bailey Smith.

How does Clarry feel about this? I doubt he would want to leave. Two first rounders seems well under unless they’re firmly within the top 10. If we trade Clarry we are admitting that we are rebuilding. Window will be firmly shut.

What would be a right offer?

My issue with Hunter is that he’s contributed nothing positive to our culture. In fact, quite the opposite. Was not worth it IMHO.

Saints going to pay a first rounder given they’ll get a first round compo pick for Battle?

Why’s that?

Absolute disaster for Geelong if true

We need to build a new locker room to fit that much ego

I didn't even realise finals started tonight. That's how little I care.

How about a straight swap for Membrey?

It’s been around for a good 12 months. If it was true it would have exploded by now. Let’s stop giving it airtime

This X account is running at a 1% strike rate It previously said that Bont wants out, Darcy won’t re-sign with Freo and various other utter garbage. According to their bio they’re an ex AFL player agent. Also I’m a unicorn 🙄

I went and read some of the tweets from this account. Safe to say we will be ok 😂

We backed ourselves to get him fit, which I always thought was strange when even Burgess couldn't do that at Adelaide. Ultimately at almost 30, it seems very unlikely that he will ever be able to get his body to a good enough position to play consistent AFL football. If he doesn't have a ripping pre-season, we can say that this trade was a complete bust.

I think their involvement came in the form of: "hey Trac, we tried but we can't get you to Pies or Blues, please stop this nonsense". They are obviously trying to stay as far away from this as possible, because it does not help their credentials one little bit to have lost control of one of their biggest stars.

Both can backflip and both can be told no trade will be done. As always, everyone has a price.

That Schulz deal was exceptionally bad. He was never worth a first rounder, nor is he what the Pies needed.

Exactly right I suggest we try and bundle this pick, as well as the other second rounder we have which is tied to Sydney (from the Grundy trade), and try to move down the draft order. There are a number of clubs who need points for bidding.

Hutchy has no friends, so of course he finds it unbelievable that we would want to show appreciation and support for a player who has given their all to this club and is leaving for personal legitimate reasons. I think what the media wants is for Nibbler to tell them his private family business. They would like to know what his wife's favourite colour is, what their baby had for breakfast, what his mother does for work, and how many times a week he waters his lawn. They can't stand the fact that they know he's leaving for personal reasons, but that they are not aware of the very intimate details of said reasons. They did the exact same thing with Finlayson, and boy oh boy did that fire back when they realised why he needed to move back to SA.

100% this

Need to wait until he's OOC. Freo won't trade him, or they'll want pick 5. Next year is the year, but of course I hope we are constantly in his ear about finishing what his brother started.
