Jaded No More

Get stuffed Howe. Screwing us til the very end. Really [censored] stuff from him. Wasted the entire season giving him games while he ran around doing SFA, and now he makes a final hour decision after we've already made a deal with GC. I want so bad to throw him into the PSD, but I know we can't afford to. He deserves it though!

How long does Jeremy think he can wait to make up his mind? At this rate he'll find himself in the PSD or making $300 a game at Melbourne.

I don't really know how to describe how I feel about this deal. This just about sums it up

Don't you just love how the rich get richer, the strong get stronger, and the cellar dwellers remain forever screwed?

On principle I would let Howe screw himself in the draft than let Collingwood screw us in a trade for him. Get your sunscreen ready Howey boy, you're heading to the Goldie.

I will be absolutely furious if we don't push Collingwood hard A swap for Kennedy and some shitty 3rd round pick is an absolute rubbish deal for us, when a hack like Henderson netted a first round pick. Seriously.

How long does it take to make up your mind? Seriously, this is a joke. He isn't even a free agent! Melbourne should tell his manager, we are making a deal with GC. If he doesn't like it, Jeremy can enjoy years of failure at Carlton.

They got one of the best players in the AFL, of course they are materially improved their list. Who is arguing otherwise? I am not sure how much Selwood or Henderson will help, as both are only average players. But anyone who gets an A+ grade midfielder is bound to see improvement in their list.

Makes me sick seeing Geelong rack up players at will. Not that Henderson or Selwood are great players, but they seem to be getting all the deals done while it's all silent on our end. We can't even get the Melksham deal done, and nobody is even interested in him FFS!

Howe isn't a free agent. Melbourne shouldn't care what he wants. He wants out and we want the best deal. If he's not happy, he can go into the draft. Sick of selfish players getting their way. He has done SFA in football. The nerve. We should have our best interests at heart. And only our best interests.

You forget one critical issue here

Stupid clubs with their stupid wins and their stupid success I hate all other clubs

You would think so. A second round pick and Kennedy would be good. We can then on trade that pick for Melksham. Or if that's too much, a third round pick we can trade for Bugg.

His heart is not in the club. He clearly wants to take a couple of species and get paid $100,000 per mark. See ya Jeremy, you can join the rest of the ungrateful sooks.

Where's my big fish?! Insert sad face x 7

My Essendon friend just laughed at me over the trade. It's been a long time since he's had any reason to laugh. I don't like it.

For the love of all that is red & blue, can we PLEASE shut this thread down now.

Clark has been a bust, but we were criminally screwed in that trade given Clark's potential ceiling. He came with high risk, high reward factor. Lumumba has also been a massive disappointment. He was a low risk low reward.

I read the first 6 words and nearly vomited Salem to play midfield. Salem NOT moving anywhere. Phew!

It sounds like overs to me, but only because his form the last two seasons stinks

Seriously this charade has gone on long enough Make a decision or I hope the club makes it for him

Bernie posted a picture with Lachie Neale on Instagram. Conclusion- Lachie Neale is the big fish. Straight swap for Dawes.

If you've ever been to China and had the misfortune of driving (or being driven rather), this is pretty much a standard day. I once spent 4 hours being driven 40km across Shanghai. It was slower than watching Melbourne climb up the ladder.

It's a Collingwood player thing I think.
