GNF didnt just pick Neelds exit, he said when it will happen He gave an exact play by play with Roos from around 6 months before it happened. He called absolutely everything that happened long before anyone else, including the media GNF never ever said Lever at pick 3. In fact he said the opposite. He claimed Roos rates him and would like to trade for a later first rounder to get him but that was it. In fact here is his EXACT post: So he got that one spot on And finally he never ever said Dangerfield and Kennedy are dees. Hes said were working hard to get deals for them. Melbourne tried hard for Danger last year but obviously didnt happen. GNF even said the deal died when we could no longer trade Trengove which was completely unexpected By this logic youre saying he has said Prestia will 100% be a dee when in reality is he said Melbourne are working hard to make it happen Whether he is right or wrong is also irrelevant when you consider some of the abuse given to him when he makes a post. Everyone can be wrong and things change. To abuse someone for that is so childish you would wonder what some grown men are doing on a message board Id take the one or two things hes wrong about to keep hearing about the good stuff about the club like getting Roos or finding out who we are targeting. If people interpret him telling us who we are working on as "were 100% getting" then hes not the problem Keep posting GNF, Appreciate the updates

Except all hes asking for is the apparent contract were about t give Melksham. So I'd say his demands are fair, and hes annoyed were giving that contract so Melksham yet not talking to him. I know which one I'd want

Probably because everythings hes said before has happened

Its not that good of a year to have pick 1 Petracca is better than the rest of the draft but hes no stand out #1

Very average, Picks 5-20 are all the same Petracca is only 1 because hes the best midfielder, not comparable to other #1's Wright and McCartin and had big opportunity to establish themselves as dominant KPP's ahead of the rest of the draft and didnt take it

People like Mitch, who have the unbelievable talent and ability to absolutely **** over those around them to get whatever they wont, dont ever experience this feeling of guilt. He didnt at Brisbane, Freo and nor will he for us

I dont doubt the OP because hes had some very good info in the past. Cant blame a guy for passing on what he knows But my doubts about the deal revolve around the pick 39 on Lumumba and getting nothing for Clark Didnt everyone today say that Varcoe has gone to Collingwood and its just a 3 way trade? Somewhere along the line there will be disappointment, I really hope the OP is correct, and if hes not, people on here behave in an acceptable manners because as he said, hes a regular here and always given us good info

GNF, Thanks for your posts and keeping us updated this TP. Hope you realise some of us appreciate it Its unfortunate what happened this period, it looks like Roos had a good plan in mind and we were hit with two serious set backs we couldnt foresee, with Clark turning into what Brisbane and Freo told us he was all along, and then JT's horrible news this morning Im hoping either way Roos is able to pull something off, or go to draft with 2 and 3, but either way I back him

Secondly wish people would get behind the club. Were losing picks 2 and 3, a gamble, were not losing JPK, we are GETTING him. Watt, Toumpas, Trengove, etc etc, these are the players you are losing. No guarantee with them, and we should know all about that However most importantly, this is a brownlow favourite every year. A grand finalist every year.Everyone says we dont have A-Graders, well here is one, and to get him on our position you do what you can. If we are going to start fighting against the big team bias that comes with FA, and fight against the dis-equalisation of FA, we need to do what we can to get the guys like Kennedy Players like Kennedy are what will keep players like Frawley and Jones at this club. Players like Kennedy are what attracts the players like Dangerfield to the club. We dont get these guys any other way. Its time we started making things happen for ourselves It looks like we had a better plan to get him, and after that fell through, Roos had a decision to make. And he decided againt crying about the set backs of clark and trengove, and go out and do it himself. Lets hope this is true

1. kudos to the OP for going ahead with this, especially after the abuse GNF and chook got 2. Stop suggesting players for Sydney . they cant get any

Not a small bird Black and white Surely = a swan??? Surely Not sure how im going to get any study done in the next 4 days

Why didnt we just offer 2 for Kennedy

Robbo is a bogan who struggles with English but hes 100% spot on about pick 2 Buntine and Bugg are not worthy of that tag. Id be alot more excited about Kelly/Aish than Buntine Bugg. Time for the club to stand up and not be walked on. Either get what you want for it or take it to the draft

Except its melbourne. Were 100% guaranteed to pick the Hislops, nottes and pitts than the Sloanes Hanneberys or Zaka etc And even if we do get the sloanes, we turn them into the pitts

If only our club had this conviction. Make a stand with pick 2 , get guys like this or take it to draft
