spirit of norm smith

Shut the thread. Isaac? I don’t know anyone by that name

Ed Langdon - you take the right Tom Phillips - you take the left

Welcome

Spargo in a two year deal - really !!! Ffs

I still think we’d be aiming at trade out. Tmc OMc Preuss trade in. Brown, Phillips, Narkle That would be a winner trade period.

surely we gotta call Narkle’s manager right now cats want Smith and Higgins and Cameron we have $$ and a HFF space available

Agree. Target Narkle with the $$$ we would have offered Smith

Perkins is very slight but very creative. Loves a goal. I think McRae and Perkins are both top 9-15 draft picks. We will somehow need to upgrade to get one of these blokes. I’ll wait until the end of trade period for my mock and crystal ball settings.

Absolutely should have been the no.1 target as soon as the Pies lost in the finals. They don’t want him. We do. Get it done.

All aboard the Tom Phillips train. Dees need to at least add Brown and Phillips in the Trade period.

Isaac who?

Ben Brown is the no.1 target. Need to get him. With our forward 50s, he should kick 3-4 per game.

hey Tom, Stay In Melbourne 3 year new deal MCG left hand side wing use of a Jaguar XE for the first 12 months and I’ll even throw in a car space at AAMI Park. A deal?

I reckon we are still favourites to land Smith but the odds are starting to drift.

Surely omcd and pick 63 to Swans for pick 52 Or omcd and pick 63 to Power for pick 51 Or omcd and pick 63 to Crows for pick 50 If Tom goes to NSW for Giants or SA for Crows, Oscar can still tag along.

Surely we can sell us as his very best option

looks so much like Chris Scott. Even the suntanned face !!!!!

Couldn’t agree more. Everyone knows my view. Phillips gives us 5-6 years minimum. He’s the perfect fit and we can guarantee him game time in his preferred decision. We can help the Pies salary issue. It’s a win win. I’d be shouting out that he is our target. Make him feel wanted. A future 2021 pick gets it done.

Ruthlessness. I agree it’s a “Soft touch”

Two years for Spargo. wow. I thought he was on the fringe and deserved only one more year to show he is capable. Yes he had a good “quarter“ v Pies and was ok v Giants. But was lost v Bulldogs and was shocking in final game v Dons [4 possessions and no pressure acts at all] List management?????

Except Tom McDonald unlikely to be there

Ben Brown is nearly across the line. I’m tipping we win his signature and it’s announced that he has chosen us by the weekend. Obviously the draft pick exchange imv might take a big more negotiating.

Wow. He’d be a great addition.

Ben Brown - future 2nd round ✅ Isaac Smith - free agent ✅ Tmcd and Preuss = GWS Pick 12-13 ✅???

I’ll go. His heart is red and blue. His courage and loyalty is unrivaled. Is he in decline? Yes Is he restricted? Yes Is he still able to compete and play a role ? Yes. Can he be a mentor for the younger blokes about professionalism and what it takes? Absolutely I feel he will also be in much lower $ probably as low as about $250k. He may or may not to 300 games but he is depth, he is cover and he is able to make a meaningful contribution if required. If you go back to the Crows and Collingwood games this year, you will see what he can still brings.
