  1. Do not stick head out window, wonder why not.
  2. please be true, then we hopefully feel the need for a stupid deal for pick 2.
  3. just woke up....from afternoon nap. My thoughts as well, add Meyers to that list. Probably wont happen due to Essendons unreasonable demands.
  4. good point mate. I get sent all over the place and don't get a say, it's called a job and I want to get paid. I think the NBA just trades you and that's it. It's not for ever.
  5. maybe they realised that, still keep their 1st round pick. It was need for need.
  6. Gibbs and Trengove also played against men as kids, it's overrated.
  7. not big on the tweet, what was said please?
  8. Having McDonald made the transition easy when Rivers departed. He and Chip are both required to play on the big men, Garland again showed this year his flexibility to play on a number of differant types of players effectively. These three down back plus our forwards being fit are crucial to us being competitive. Now if Watts is in the midfield he's on a wing with Toumpas on the other so the Swans can stick their offer. I haven't seen a lot of Shiel but if he's good to go lets get him. We can become more competitive quicker than most think.
  9. Yes, clearly free agency has destroyed clubs.
  10. I wish my company could trade me to the top end of WA, no go home factor but the money's blood good.
  11. If Rivers stayed would Tom McDonald ask to be traded, Rivers stays for two more seasons Tom says for seven. Geelong make tough calls(yes I'm aware Rivers walked) but this year Chappy and JPOD are told no more. This allows them to elevate players full time into the starting 22 rather than in and out depending on injuries and prepare the next batch coming through. Sylvia is an 'icing on the cake player' , I think it's best for both party's he's gone. Hopefully Mitch and Dawes can stay injury free and we have a successful trade period, start to show dramatic improvement. One thing we have going for us is that Chip, Garland, Tom Mc, Mitch , Dawes , Watts, Jones are all aged between 21-26. There is some talent there all in their prime. On top of that we have Viney , Toumpas and Hogan. If there is any truth to Beams and Rockcilff wanting out we should pay big$$ to land one of them. This should be our last payment of this type as we start to have the makings of a good footy side.
  12. Geelong have shown what's needed to remain competitive in terms of moving players on. This year they weren't afraid to make the tough calls. If you don't your young emerging players will seek opportunities else where. Players will/should be aware of this.
  13. Great post, whole lot of worry about nothing.
  14. Jamar... Yeah if they take him. We would have to offer around that sort of money to attract one of them, plus with Sylvia and Davey gone we can afford to. There's a handful of players that could be coupledc up with pick 2. Ruckmen came to mind because of Jolly/Longer is homesick.
  15. Let's say that's true, we could offer a 4 year deal to either player at 700k . Trade pick 2 and spencer. Both clubs need a ruckmen.
  16. I think we are being inundated with less than substantial offers. The club is just playing the game as are the others. As previously mentioned if no suitable offers are made we have a pretty good pick in the draft. We need to show faith in the new team.
  17. lets remember UFA have already served ten years and clubs still receive compensation picks for them. Would you rather Scully or Hogan? Morton , Cook, Gysberts and Bate were bad selections. Viney showed last year what can be achieved under a bad system.
