I'm so bored with his whole trade period.

Still have another week after this.. how ridiculous.

I feel sorry for the Boys on trade radio having to flesh out the program every day off the back of absolutely nothing happening.

 

[bedford]

Why feel sorry for tools that are getting paid for it

Its like if its writing for a newspaper.....oh wait

In also sick of hearing terry Wallace calling himself "the list manager". The guy is the list destroyer for god sakes.

Mummy deal will be done tomorrow according to AFL.COM trade news

I wonder what we will get?

[Swanhotels]

Yep. No lube.

I've always been a believer that the newspaper on any given day should be only as long as it absolutely has to be (i.e. shorter on slow news days). Would do more to help the environment than any climate change policy would!

Wouldn't have a clue be interesting if Everitt is a part of it

 

[Punts]

Cats saying West will be there next year

 

[Bonz]

I wonder what we will get?

Thinking it will be their second round selection.

Or possibly a move up the draft order.

I doubt GWS would completely screw us over.

I agree, SM would do a much better job

Well if that's true we should be getting a decent pick otherwise they would wait until trade closing time to chuck us a late draft pick, as they threatened to do in their peeved twitter comment straight after losing Franklin to us.

Maybe they have settled down and are now realising they are better off without Franklin so want to trade fairly. Fair would be their pick 19.

So I'm hoping the deal is fair and not just a discarded icecream wrapper.

Whilst at Richmond, Wallace presided over the most disastrous recruiting in AFL history. I think they had five picks inside 19 at the 2004 draft and only Deledio made the grade. Managed to miss Franklin and took Tambling!

List Manager - what a tool

 

[Bonz]

I agree, SM would do a much better job

Now thats a little harsh on Old Terry Wallace

 

[Punts]

Will be interesting to see how GWS goes about if they give us stuff all and risk future trades or play fair but will see in 24 hours

 

[Punts]

White and Armstrong are still set to land at the Pies , AFL.COM. Geez 3 weeks is a bit to long but at least the Mummy deal will be done tomorrow according to his manager

 

[Superstar swan]

19 is fair for mummy, but I think we will be lucky to get a second rounder

 

[baja]

Yeah the whole trade period is way too long its a bit of a joke, it will be shortened next year.

 

[Kummerspeck]

Trade period should be longer, but the AFL shouldn't try and make it another form of entertainment or extension of the season.

I disagree, too many players in limbo waiting for others.

 

[The King!]

Just have trades all year except for say august and september

 

[SM]

I agree, SM would do a much better job

At being a tool, or at talking trades?
