Rubbish They’ve developed the story each step of the way to make it practically impossible for him to stay

It’s incredible how much the media drive the narrative to the point where marginal possibilities become self fulfilling prophecies

A Geelong mole to get them Clarry?

It’s utterly illogical and a complete lottery. It’s a throwback to a bygone area and runs counter to all other equalisation measures. It’s the football equivalent of generational wealth transfers that lock everyone else out. If Brisbane love Levi Ashcroft so much, go out and get the pick in the draft that he’s worth. And no, the value is decided based on a discount. On what planet should a club be incentivised to trade away a first round pick so they can burn a second rounder on the best junior in the country?

Be still, my beating heart

I will always maintain we should have shipped him last year and taken 4 first rounders to the draft. Heck, I was for sending Petty with him and taking 6. Should have done the back burning last year when we could so we didn’t now have to put out this raging bushfire.

The whole thing should be binned In a system devoted to trying to generate equality, why should clubs get access to father/sons at all?

Honestly how did this not happen 10 years ago

Might as well give him a spot on the list at this rate

Those were the days Scary that the list before that was materially worse

Ah fair enough. No idea then!

It is so that Brisbane can get a flight home tonight if they win - not fair for Sydney to have 36 hours extra rest and they’re minimising that gap

Well, obviously not playing that well then

Our first go around the merry go round was brain fart enough

Christ on a bike. Tell me you’re kidding

Took him about 5 mins to get stuck in

Tell you what, if Wade Derksen is our big off season splash, strap in for a bumpy ride in 2025

Sure mate. I did mine 25 years ago so good luck with that. I don’t remember much

You’re asking someone to bother summarising 282 pages of thread because you haven’t kept up. It’s kind of a lot to unpack mate

Without being silly about it, we have to give a list spot to someone. We will have massive turnover this year as it is, have to keep some of them!

One last thing and this applies to Nibbler too - if you’re that keen to get home, demanding to go a single club is a bit rich. If you’re prioritising family, then a job’s a job and you can’t care that much where you do it.

Richmond have plenty. We’ll have the two thanks chaps and you can have the one.

Go for Harley. Kozzie is clearly gone at some point and West Coast are all over the shop - no way Harley says no to coming home at some stage. Boom, we have our Trac replacement and about a million draft picks. The family thing is real. Frequent interstate trips to see them aren’t helpful - they’re actually a giant pain and doesn’t help with the day to day support young parents can need.

Um, yes, was an attempt at satire

Rumour has it Pick 5 asked to be traded at its exit meeting this week
