Very Jaded

That's not the point I was making Good list management is also about making sure you build a club where players feel supported Throwing away contracted players, but keeping ones against their compelling wishes, doesn't scream good club to me Sometimes doing the right thing pays off

Hmmm ok I guess I'm here for it

Exactly We don't have anything to gain by rushing to get a deal done The only other trade we have to complete is Clarry, which is basically swapping some burnt sausages from the BBQ the other day. We can wait, and the bonus is making Trac sweat it out, considering he's done f*&k all to help us out here

We are not a club that wastes time in trades. We got the McVee deal done the second we were happy with it, and same with Max Heath. If BH was 100% categorically off the table, this deal would have been agreed to by now. GC have other things happening, and they would want this big one done so they can get on with other deals. The fact that this is dragging out, suggests to me, that at the very least we are holding as firm as possible for as long as possible. I know this will gain Lamb absolutely no points with his haters, but kudos to us for playing hard ball and trying every available avenue to getting what we want in this trade. Even if we don't get BH, at least you know we tried our best.

There is not a snowflake's chance in hell that Trac is not blabbing all about how he can't go back to Melbourne to Dimma Trac is desperate to leave and he's made that known to anyone who will listen GC know this, and as such have the upper hand

Yeah funny how they are happy to throw away other contracted players, with less compelling reasons for leaving, because it suits them They need to be careful, or they'll return to their 'mass exodus' era pretty damn quickly

Petracca to his manager

Me to literally every second poster in this thread who I have not seen before

Welcome back my beautiful ginger disaster

He has the files… Which files? You’ll never know

This trade summed up The third dog is clearly Bailey just checking in

They’re correct He’s a brat and needs to be traded now to the Dees I have underestimated you, you sunburnt drunk beautiful Suns fans

Tim Lamb to CAC

Will I ever be able to get back to work again?

I wish GC didn't know how much we needed Trac out We have no hope to call their bluff

Did not give enough compelling reasons HE SUCKS! Bailey you need to fire this dude, he is useless

Sounds like a manager conceding defeat for now, but making it clear that this will be on the agenda again in 12 months time, where Humphrey gets to the Hawks

Clearly we need Donald Trump to sort this out

If I just did my finest GIF work for nothing, I will not be happy

Lots of noobs here it seems This thread has not even reached the "it's Jack Watts' fault" stage
