I hope not. Neither can get a regular game.

I think that was a rarely sighted RT joke, tugga.

 

[Dustin Credible]

Mark Blake & Trent West for Foley & pick 29

lol... you are taking the piss? right??

 

[Frustrated Tiger]

I was just on SEN Daniel from Toorak discussing the grigg and Collins trade may aswell get an opinion from you guys if anyone listened in.

Yeah sounded like you have an o.k voice for radio Daniel from Toorak.....was that the opinion you were after?????

 

[McGun]

Foley wont be going any where!

Just heard you mate! thought u made some good points but the issue u didnt realise is that Grigg enables players like Foley and Cotchin to play more outside of the pack where as while Collins is our 2nd leading goal kicker, he kicked 15! he's never going to kick 30 - 40 for a season, leave that to guys like Griffiths and Post etc!

Collins is a great player and im sad to see him go but Grigg has the height and body strength to play inside midfield and he's shown he's good at it while collo is more of a HFF.

Tugga, what does a yellow card mean?

You should have been sent a private message detailing why you were given a yellow card. It's an automated private message. Check there.

I understand that but my point is we could of had both.

Btw is there anyway i can listen to it is there a podcast or website???

 

[Cathal Brugha]

Look, if trading foley gives us a pick we could use to get Harper I would be over the moon.

Go to Sen.com.au and click listen now!

I understand mate but you need to realise that if Collo had've stayed there is a big chance that he would be over taken in a year by the guys like Troy Taylor and Robbie Hicks......Collo got offered a 3 year deal from Carlton that he may not have got from us at the end of next year!

 

[Cathal Brugha]

Hey Tugga, have you enjoyed your first trade week as Mod

Isnt the listen now live.. i want to find a playback from when i called

I see what you mean, but we should keep every small foward we have, everyone knows A grade midfielders win premiership but i think a foward line is just as integral. Im just frustrated as i believe keeping collins is a better option than keeping Grigg.

Ohhh nah sorry mate you wont be able to listen to that! the only podcasts they do is of guests......Because its talk back radio 24/7 its too much trouble to keep playback of every caller!

On trade week radio earlier in the week, they were talking about Richmond.
They (don't recall who, may have even been Plough) said that the Richmond midfield is very promising. Reckoned we just need a midfielder with the ability to bust out of the pack with speed. Mentioned Cotchin, Martin, Deledio (although HB). Didn't mention Foley.

Obviously Foley is that player that busts out of packs with speed.
Have heard reports from the club saying Foley is ready to go next year and will be like a new recruit.

If we traded him, I would be dumfounded, spitting chips, asking for heads to roll, filthy, demanding answers.

It won't happen.
Bring on 2pm monday so we can kill the BS.

Thanks pal. Looking forward to it being over though.

It will be worth it when we jag a ruckman in the PSD...

If Essendon were to offer pick 8 and Houli for Foley I would be inclined to take it.

Agreed, only problem is if that happens we're not improving our midfield depth, we're only breaking even. I'd be more inclined to do that if we hadn't offloaded Collins to get Grigg.

Very fair point, i'll give you that.....aahh well maybe I can give you some tips on how to survive the next 30 years without winning a flag....

Recieved a yellow card on the essendon board for the above comment....they were having a go at us not winning a flag for 30 years.....how delicate are they....

The Dockers have just traded their 3rd round pick to Gold Coast for a Perth kid and pick 44 in return. Also Cameron said in the papers today that a trade for Thursfield is unlikely to happen.
