Better we dont have a general board. Ding will be able to buy a new car with the money he saves on mylanta.

as soon as the game shifts towards praying mantis style bodies, we will dominate for a decade. edit for the "a" in Praying is spelling important here, or do we eat each other if we have typos/mistakes?

Yeah, fair enough. My apologies. But if you want the answers, most are available in earlier posts in this thread I think it would be worthwhile for the sanity of all of us, if there was a sticky available for this.

Any club, at any pick can nominate Viney. Whoever finished last, gets first bite. then second last etc etc etc If for instance Nth melb was the first to nominate, and they comitted to using pick 8 (if they had pick 8), then we could land him with our second rd pick. With all the talk over the years, i am amazed some still dont understand.

Jeez Deers, dont be a [censored]. Yes, you are clearly mistaken. It was a reference to earlier posts about a "takeover" I was having a bit of fun with a bloke who obviously understands my humour better than you do. how about you get over yourself? If Ology dies, too bad. I can live without it. edit to soften language

This is not a thread, its the new Demonology. Probably best to avoid it Rob.

I think you may have been successfully trolled mate. Check his post count.

wow, another blast from the past. Hope all is well Ash. I too get the feeling that many will be shaking their heads, and swaying back and forth after the ology crew has descended en masse. This could get ugly. B) I'm quite looking forward to seeing the big shots, and big egos from both sites take each other on. I think we might also discover some alter egos from the old place on here too. I always liked Demonland. Im not sure I will like it so much once all of our crew comes over. Watch also for the post whores trying to up the count to gain cred. Should be fun.

I reckon he just revealed himself. Things are about to get interesting.

Really? I've seen the "f" word on here heaps more than ology. ok, will watch in future

i'll get over it

we have only been here a few days, and look what we are doing to the place already. 'Ology is like that incestuous mob of 'tards that just moved in next door against your wishes. All day fighting, bickering, and hurling insults like 8 year olds with a crush, when after dark, all they want to do is root each other. Apologies in advance if we bring our bullschit and baggage with us.

you only live once young fella When does your Thai money sink get there? Say hi for me.

At least he used irw, and not something else. Maybe 'Land is like alcos anonymous, and will provide a fresh outlook on things?

oh no, its started............ ;-)

Most of "us" thought scummy was going long before he left. We are an emotional lot.

What is unfair? I said I only put his name in my scenario because it was an easy hypothetical trade, nothing more. Could just as easily have put a name like Tapscott in there. And i was having fun with the second comment, even though I am sure I wouldnt be the only person to think that. Calm down Mrs Blease. Jeez!

If Sam is out of contract, and wishes to go into the psd, we cant stop him, and then yes, GC or GWS would get him for nothing. I was just throwing a semi random name in there to give some realism. If I was a suspicious person, i would admit that I see similarities in the way Blease and scummy appear to be rather emotionless and detached from teammates, even when winning.

Nice examples I would hope we could swing it by something as simple as a no poaching rule for a set time. Would be perfect.

or even by trading a player for slightly under his value, to gws/gc, to get the handshake done. Remember that Viney is not actually costing the new clubs anything, and as such, they are effectively getting something for nothing (not withstanding the fact they wouldnt want us in their flag window) Lets say (for instance), that Sam Blease was valued slightly higher than Caddy from GC, but had a desire to leave. The option is there to accept that trade, providing GC dont nominate Viney. Not the best example, but im sure you know what I mean.

No. Nominations for father/son are completed prior to the trade period.

It would be like scumbags situation. We would all talk about it, and get all cranky and uptight because we know the truth, but in the end, we will never see the proof.

But wouldnt it be nice to hear the squealing? Stuff the other clubs, and dimwit. Lets play this to our advantage however we can. Can we borrow some visy brown paper bags? spelling edit....

At least we get to watch that goofy top 10 countdown, and actually be interested. I for one, hope we can swing a deal with the franchises, to prevent them bidding on Viney.

Our picks wont "remain" as 4 and 12 People forget the Bulldogs first rd (after first pick) compo. If the ladder stays as now, and the commies at afl headquarters didnt give any compo picks to anyone else, the picks would be something like this Pick 1 GC Pick 2 GWS Pick 3 Melb (Viney F.S) Pick 4 Melb (compo) Pick 5 Bulldogs Pick 6 Bulldogs (compo) Pick 7 Lions Pick 8 Port Pick 9 Nth Pick 10 Tigers Pick 11 Freo Pick 12 Carlton Pick 13 Melb (mid first round compo) With GWS also activating the pick it has following Adelaides first pick, our second round choice would be pick 25 Lets hope a miracle happens, and we can use 25 for Viney. cant see it happening though.
