31 days until the trade period so let’s not panic about who we are getting or who we aren’t at the moment
Zac Williams is a very good get and is just cash -no picks required
If we can equal trade draft period this year as we did last we will be going well .
Martin for nothing Williams for nothing is a good start .
Getting Williams indicates to me we are seen as a much more attractive proposition than in previous years .
As usual we are linked with everyone and I think the only other clubs that everyone is reportedly going to is Geelong and to a lesser extent than Aints
The used car salesman AFL journalists speculate on money players moving and generally making it up so let’s not get disappointed about not getting someone who probably is not moving in any case
I enjoy hearing about the speculation of course but you need to take all these reports with a grain of salt and in a context where the journalists make things up ie Kreuz going to Collingwood
Enjoy the speculation but don’t believe it view the journalists as having the credibility of a used car salesman and you won’t be disappointed .
Great points you raise frank.
I never believe, AFL Commentators, so called journos. They are puppets of their owners. Really sick people, but I guess they're thinking a job is a job. I couldn't think of one who hasn't sold out to the owner of their stable.
Robbo taking Sheehan's role at Herald Sun is a disgrace. Have a look at everything he has pushed through that rag, Its not balanced, yet, that shouldn't surprise, he's not either. I loved what Barrett had to say, oublicly, about the Herald Sun and how they are compromised. @#$%&!, how embarrassing.
Great to see us on the map.
A good mate of mine, and here on TC, knows some Saints and he told me the attraction at Saints is the culture. At Geelong its going to a one club town but in the countryside. I look at the types that place attracts: lets say hicksville.
We are in a good place. Just get us Saad now, FFS, and don't please do a SOS and pull a poker face tha reeks arrogance coz it gets you nowhere. WE lost Betts for $50K when MM infiltrated Carlton. I'm told we lost Saad for something similar: stupid.
SOS failed with mids and HB. We lack speed because of his failures (Philp looks good, but we only got him when we couldn't get Sarong or Stephens) and now we are begging for them, and Saad is right there for the taking. Whatever is the cost, get him, and put it on SOS' tab.
