I think 300 pages is ‘unders’ and there’s no way we’re accepting unders on this trade thread.

Did you mean to say Kenya Uganda at the trade board? Anyway, I did; it’s pretty Loas e. But not as bad as my dad/uncle jokes!

No Russia

Yeah, nah. Once you're out of the race for first, it's all over:

Storm now in the race for Shiel; a replacement for Billy Slater?

It would be a huge statement. He’d have to be very very unhappy to make that sort of a move; club legend.

So many possible responses to that come to mind; all inappropriate.

The Honeybadger as a category B rookie? Fast, strong, record number of disposals!

Update via AFL website - Magpie gets two Moore years, Langon close. Moore staying at Collingwood could help our bargaining position with GCS.

Out on the more open spaces of the wing, being ‘slow but smart’ doesn’t cut the mustard in finals - where quality opposition teams are likely to have wingmen who are smart and quick.

Agree with what @Jaded said. Tyson is a valuable player as an inside mid, but for us that position is currently well covered; playing him on the wing this year did neither the team nor Dom much favour. He could go on to carve out a very respectable career at St.Kilda / Essendon / Carlton.

Not against it either. We have a strong young talent base - much of it 23 and under. So, whereas most premiership windows may typically last 3 to 5 years, ours could remain open for 6 to 8 years. Therefore any really high-quality draftee could meaningfully contribute (after 1-2 years development) for the bulk of this window. However if the trade-week machinations meant we could get Josh Kelly, then grab him!

Oktoberfest finishes on the 7th, he better get his skates on!

Thought he had a fantastic game in the Grand Final. Out of contract, could we / should we bring in both Langdon brothers this trade period? http://www.afl.com.au/news/2018-10-03/tom-langdon-future-up-in-the-air-as-he-considers-options

Don’t let the turkeys get you down.

Sadly for Gary, he has put in two really poor grand final appearances. Once is understandable, twice is deeply concerning.

Will be packaged along with Tyson for a trade with GWS; Kelly to Dees. Awaiting confirmation from @Ethan Tremblay

Yes, he did. Credit where credit is due.

Are they a member? If so, ask them when their master is next taking them out for a walk?

Scary thought; without the white lines they’d be invincible - they’d be the All Blacks!

The ‘au-pairs’ round?

Wasn’t too sure about these jumpers when I saw them in the pre-game promotional photos, but thought they looked quite good from afar on game day.
