All things James Frawley - pick #3 compensation

[Dez!]

Just scrolling through these pages on some of the finest flu medication available and I could swear I've read it

If your talking purely pick 3 for Dangerfield then id listen,

Pansy, real men don't need flu medication.

Pansy, real men don't need flu medication.

I never said it was prescribed medication

Weed and redbull IMO.

Glad he hasn't pulled the "I'd love to be a one club player".

He did come out with the "If you cut open my veins you would see red and blue blood" bs

 

[stretcharmstrong]

My suspicion is that the Dees tabled a fairly low offer, in the knowledge that we would receive pick 3 if he left.

I feel for the bloke to be honest. People are bagging him out - but if he stayed, they'd be the first to say that the club should have actively moved him on.

Nope. Not me at least. If he stayed - and played to his potential - I'd be over the moon.

Same, I think he is a better player than some on here give him credit for. Wish him the best at his next club, he gave us what 7-8 years of good service? Can't hate on a guy for wanting out after the past few years tbh.

 

[MAXIMUM GRUNDAGE]

We have the next coach signed on, and a clear vision for the future. No excuses now - sign on or piss off.

Maybe he meant this literally? Maybe it wasn't an expression of his loyalty and his blood really is physically blue.

Before he leaves we should lock him in a room, cut him up and harvest his blood for experiments and revenue.

Nah, see I don't agree with that either. As I said, if he decided to dig in, commit to the club and be a part of the change that is building, id be stoked. But, if (when) he bails, I definitely will not wish him all the best and ill view him as a gutless, traitorous mercenary.

Dangerfield >> Frawley.... if losing this big headed w***er, opens us up to the opportunity of snagging Danger through a Compensation pick, well i say "Seeya Chip!!!!" And with talk of Geelong willing to part with Stokes, Christianson, or a player like that to secure the sevices of Mitch Clark, losing another player like Toumpas or the like doesnt sound that bad....

Where did this come from because I seriously doubt it?

 

[Devastating Boris]

Would swap Clark for Christianson or Stokes in a heart beat.

 

[Topkent]

Christensen for Clark without even thinking
Stokes As well

Would be strange by the cats unless they think GHS and caddy are well past them as inside mids and Murdoch and motlop as outsides

 

[youngbear]

Would swap Clark for Christianson or Stokes in a heart beat.

My first reaction to Stokes was, F*** NO! 29, past his best, blah blah blah. But considering we'll lose Clark no matter what; Stokes for 2-3 years would be better than nothing.

 

[Topkent]

Wait stokes is 29?
Nvm no thanks

If rather a pick in the 30s

 

[ham sandwich]

ive heard it from a couple of different sources, a lil skeptical on it myself, but only saying that if that was the case, losing a player along the line of Toumpas with a first round pick wouldnt affect us if this were the case, especially if it were to bring Danger to the Dee's....

 

[youngbear]

Which we'll be a good chance of now. If reports that Dons, Pies, Cats and Hawks are all interested. You'd think a 2nd round may be a chance

 

[ham sandwich]

would take Stokes over Lamumba.... but only just....

 

[Topkent]

Stokes is a really good player
Just maybe too old for us to be chasing

 

[Tulip]

Stokes would be one of our best 5 players. There is no chance at all that we get him, or Christensen either.

 

[ham sandwich]

Out of all their mids, Stokes would be most likely to be thrown up.... he may be playing the back 9, but would be a good player to get a bit of momentum into the club for 2-3 years while the likes of Trengrove, Viney, etc build up and mature into A grade mids!!!

 

[Captain Jack]

Not sure how Stokes and Christensen got involved in this discussion... I would be mighty surprised if either was put on the trade table.

 

[schmuttt]

I would trade pick 2 for Christensen, but no chance Geelong put him up.

 

[Viney]

I would trade pick 2 for Christensen, but no chance Geelong put him up.

MASSIVE overs IMO

 

[ham sandwich]

Mitch Clark and a 2nd round pick for Christensen and Stokes.... sounds bout fair... but Clark for "Stokes and late pick" may be in the mix....
