Mega Thread 2014 FA, Trades, Rumours and Facts (pre-draft thread).

[Unknown Identity]

I have been to the future and seen how the trade period and draft unravels, so here goes pies fans!
Darcy Moore does go to our second round pick and with our first rounder we trade that to Sydney for Tom Mitchell. Lumumba goes to Melbourne in return for a second round pick who we use on Jarrod Garlett. Mitch Clark makes his way to us with our 3rd pick and Jeff Garlett with our 4th round pick. Crazy time for the Pies coming up! Even Waylon Manson gets a rookie spot for us, wow!

Your information has been a little rusty as of late.

Would much rather Rohan, Jetta, Parker etc

Give us his address so the people who are curious can go give him a visit.

Rohan and jetta? get off the crack boy.Mitchell is a ball magnet machine.he will destroy those 2.Parker is a gun and sydney wont let him go.

So your opinion is more right than mine?

The fact that the 3 players you mentioned are well entrenched in Sydney's best 22 adds more weight (don't know about Rohan though).

Parker is obvious and Jetta has the highest metres gained x retention rate of any player league wide (in other words he breaks the lines and finds targets when doing so). Both are worth top 10 picks.

Added Rohan purely for his run - which I think we need more than a ball magnet

Wouldn't give up pick 8 for Mitchell, he is a ball magnet but has yet to show he will be a superstar of the competition

Jetta? Debatable.
Parker? Absolutely.
Rohan? Wouldn't give up a 3rd round pick for him, good athlete but a terrible footballer.

Thats the risk you take I think he will be a star

 

[Smoothness]

Rohan is a hack and jetta getting on.mitchell has 10 years in front of him

 

[TheWing121]

Thats the risk you take I think he will be a star

He might be a star he might not. I just don't think you would need such a high pick for him, especially someone who is questionable best 22 in Sydneys side

 

[Shade]

Rohan could join Ben Reid in the injury room every week

 

[Big Bryza]

Rockliffs a flog.

This.

 

[Buckleys Jocks]

But isn't the whole you can do what you want if you have ability the mentality Nathan is trying to remove?

I thought Bucks had been pretty open about not really caring about what Swanny gets up to because when he's at training and when he's playing he gives his all, similarly it's why he was pissed with Shaw because the problem was that he was being a dickhead on the field with his brain snaps costing us. My impression of the 'culture change' stuff was purely on field behaviour anyway.

What's it like living in the parallel universe?

Yep, it's crazy. I remember the days when people could sell houses and there was this other thing, forgot what it was called, in... invest... investment properties, that's it.

You don't /build/ an investment property from scratch, which is what I gathered he did. You renovate existing property.

Unless you think he's in the market for building skyscrapers.

Just wondering if you have always been a big fan of dayne? or he is a "superstar" becomes there is backstreet talk he could join the lions

????? really. I know several people who have brought an existing property as an investment property without doing any work to its whats so ever.

Have a look at their midfield depth champ

Yes well that too, but when the time comes to sell it if you self-renovate you'll earn far more. Of course that might not always be an option.
