spirit of norm smith

I have never ever been skiing in Australia. Spent 2 months in Canada and loved it but that was 20 years ago. Do I hand in my membership?

Let’s be honest. We are suffering from DDSS. DISAPPOINTED DEMONS SUPPORTERS SYNDROME. A shocking mental disease that cripples it’s sufferers. Leaves you mentally on the edge “hope can be a cruel thing “

I love it.

Agreed. Gawn and Oliver are A grade. Clarry just needs someone to tell him to kick the fuc&))$n goal rather than handballing the footy inside 25 metres of goal. Then he’s dusty like !!

I’d be as excited as Bruce Mcaveney seeing Lance buddy Franklin in action.

I just failed the concussion test. I’m missing next week.

Brodie Newman from Calder. Again showed his best. I only saw him play once this year against my local team (Chargers). He was like Easton Wood and Brendon Goddard type. Controlled the backline. Mature and composed and kicked with real purpose. Not a lot of hype but I reckon he is the AFL type. I will keep on seeing him as a pick 50-60 type. Think how the Hawks, Swans, Pies keep getting these types as 50+ bargains.

Couldn’t agree more. We can unleash hell in 2020 if we get fit and firing. We have the players to win it. Outside PACE and SMARTER inside 50 movement is the key.

Yes. I know. It’s like all the trades for Brayshaw, Petracca, Viney. Ridiculous isn’t it. Yet we have pages of pages. I think Gawn and Oliver might be the only safe ones if you read demonland. Crazy times and crazy posts ahead.

Whilst we are all in the mathematics of trying to improve the team, we should see how we can really engineer a coup. Let’s trade both Tom McDonald and his brother Oscar McDonald to the Suns. The Ballarat boys would love the sun and surf. They both have frustrated the hell out of me and I’m yet to be convinced they would be up getting premiership medallions on the big dance day. What would the disparate and desparate Suns give? Ben King and pick 40 (start of 3rd round). why not see what rebuild we can truly deliver

If other deals don’t eventuate, Riley Knight from the Crows could be worth a quick phone call. Or at least ask if he is interested. Apparently not offered a new contract by the Crows.

Isaac Smith for a pick like 55-60. Maybe a 2-year deal is all he wants and a fair $coin than the Dawks are offering.

Agree. Amon would get the wing position opposite Langdon. But if Isaac Smith was an option, I’d take that option.

Trac was one player who could say he improved and can hold his head up after the year Would be ridiculous to entertain any trade deal yes he needs to build up his motor to play more midfield time but I feel he will still be a burst type midfielder and not a Josh Kelly or Tom Scully marathon running midfielder pure madness to even consider trading out Trac, or even Brayshaw or Viney

Yes I’d certainly entertain trying to manufacture a trade deal. He is fast, skilled and knows when to defend before attacking. Probably worth a pick around the 20-25 mark.

Agree. One more year. Jonesy should get to 300 and play some good footy. Probably that should just about be the final curtain. Great player. Great heart. Served the club as a honest warrior. 5-year club captain. Triple B&F Winner Suns could then be the home for 2021.

Back to the point. After a horrendous year,the Dees need to recover or face ridicule and loss of faith in their ability. The demons shocking turnovers and lack of skilled midfield runners will see hopefully a focus on pace and ball use in trading and drafting strategy. A small forward capable of pressure, tackling and goal scoring also on the menu Retired - Maynard. Lewis. Delisted - Keilty. Garlett Likely to be delisted - Walker. TimSmith. (Both may retire due to chronic injury) JWagner Jkh Medical check - Kolodjashnij Vandenburg Trade options - Stretch. Anb. J-Smith Protected species. Spargo. Omcd Available targets - Ed Langdon is the main target with his pace suited. Others mentioned as possibly available Karl Amon , Adam Tomlinson and Dan Butler (Brad Hill likely to be Stkilda bound ) (Alex Keath - not quite a fit but Dees rumoured to be interested ) .

We sacked James McDonald and it took years to recover any sense of leadership and stability. Sure let the asylum decide to commit another crazy act.

Ffs mods kills this fu&($!)n crap threads now

It’s a yes to Butler for a 50+ pick. Maybe 4th round swap pick 57. He’s not worth any more. Swap for Spargo any day!!

I’m studying the markov model and Einstein’s theory of relativity. They are easier to understand then some of the trades. Not the logic but the complexity!!! Like a scientist, it may blow up but you have to keep in trying. I like the 7 players traded in proposals.

Time will tell. The shocking turnovers he had in EVERY game he played will need to be solved. His disposal is a killer to the team. We will see who’s off the mark.

Agreed. It’s fuc&)$n ridiculous.

Sorry if this is about Spargo, then it must be a joke. Spargo was gifted games in 2018. Didn’t get a rising nomination because his games were average. His final vs Eagles was a sign that he is not up to it. At his height, like Daniels and Gresham, you need real grunt and skills. Spargo is a nice player, kicking is horrendous and has no real pace. Imo he should be delisted or traded now.

Add trades of Stretch to Crows for Jenkins and ANB to Power for Amon. Busy off season if we get daring. Langdon for 2nd round-pick 21 works.
