Traded Chris Yarran [to Richmond for Pick 19]

[SA_Stazza]

Apart from most of that being utter rubbish, why post all the anger and hate if anger and hate is not what you feel?

Where exactly did I express anger or hatred?

 

[Pounce]

Tigers do a lot of talking before the trade period, never actually back it up.

Hampson for a 2nd rounder. LOL. We'll get what we want for Yarran.

I didn't realize the aim of the trade period was to pick up duds like Liam Jones. Every club should be following Carlton's recruiting strategy. You can clearly see how successful it has been for them.

 

[SABlue]

Just out of curiosity, if Lennon decides to leave what's he worth?

You won't get an answer mate. I've tried to suggest they are of equal value and get nothing.

When we pick a player we get them, and they always wanna come.

Can you say the same

 

[bmaurizio]

Well'll keep Yarran if we're not adequately compensate, but I think it
Will be a Yarran for Lennnon swap.
Let's see if Lennon remains uncontracted by end of the week.
That will a be a good indicator.

Where in the media has it been stated Yarran has "chosen" Richmond? If he had indeed chosen you guys, your second point of "has been linked to no-one else" is completely irrelevant isn't it?

Unfortunately, it's not the case, we've had discussions with him already and are still considering a move, pending the Danger trade outcome.

Think it's going to be a case of Richmond just accepting whatever/whoever they can get this year unfortunately - who knows maybe you'll end up with Mark Jamar to give big Ivan a chop out. God knows the big fella has more ticker in his left pinky than that flog Vickery has, and Hampson combined. I do like Griffiths though - best to invest time into him methinks, Vickery's only going to let you down when it matters the most, but he's not alone there is he.

Have had to listen to all the dribble about Treloar, then Yarran, then Bennell.. Getting super boring. Your club needs a new list manager - Petterd, Knights, Gordon, Hampson, Chaplin, Thomas decisions set you back about 5 years. The future isn't looking pretty.

And please point to one of our stars leaving.

How many have Adelaide lost?

Me thinks Adelaids needs a new list manager.

You need to have enough of them in the first place. Nice try though. The point I was making was referring to developing them, which your club clearly doesn't place a lot of weight on..

Cotchin, Riewoldt, Rance, Lids, Martin etc etc

Yes we can't develop them.

Retaining your own stars is just as if not more important then bringing other clubs stars, let's not forget that a lot of the clubs currently gunning for high profiled stars are teams that have, at some point, lost there own stars to other clubs via FA or through GC/GWS ability to poach players.

Five.. is that it? Please.. we've lost more stars than that in just the last few years and still have that much elite talent on the list

Who's this etc. etc guy? Never heard of him?

How about respond to a well presented argument with some factual responses of your own rather than trying to entertain a pissing contest you're never going to win.

Two of those were gifted AA's this year because of a pro-Richmond selection panel, and that's not trolling. Try to justify to anyone how Lids gets a gong ahead of a player like Josh Kennedy after playing only 18 games. Don't even get me started on Riewoldt.

Rance is a gun, Martin equally so. Cotchin goes missing when it matters - how many 30+ possie games did he have this year? I'll tell you - as many as he had sub 20 games - 5. Takes a lot more to reach star level than a handful of blinding games a year I'm sorry. Burst onto the scene like a house on fire and has fallen under the weight of the captaincy, don't tell me you can't see it for yourself either.

How many rising star nominees have you had in the last 5 years? Lennon, McIntosh, lemme guess.. that etc. etc bloke too?

 

[Tiggytigers]

Carlton are dreaming if they think there getting anymore then a second round HAHAHA

 

[Tiggytigers]

If they don't agree with what were offering time whatever we will just get him next year when he comes out of contract

Why are you so salty?

Btw etc etc is Vlastuin, Edwards, Miles, B Ellis and plenty more kids we've recruited and developed with some top talent playing in he vfl.

You also said we can't recruit and develop our own, I proved otherwise, now either attempt to have a proper discussion or take your pathetic attempts of trolling to bay13.

FA compensation next year would be better than pick 31+ anyway

I agree with you. But please, don't say "ciao". Almost as bad as the go that always says "go catters"

Fair point

I think you might be right.

Please keep Yarran for another year. We are not in contention in 2016 anyway

Vlastuin.. You're kidding me aren't you? GWS developed Miles, you took him when he was ripe for the picking. How they let him go so easily, or how no other club picked him up was beyond me at the time, could see it a mile away - only needed to watch half his junior footy to guess that was going to happen.

You failed to answer my latter question, how many rising stars you had lately? Or respond to the knock on Cotchin, do you agree then?

Not even going there re talent in the VFL, especially not after you've rated Vlastuin in the same sentence as blokes like Edwards and Ellis, who do actually go alright but are nowhere near star status.. that is what we were talking about - genuine stars.

At no point did I EVER say you couldn't recruit and develop your own, so get your facts straight before calling me a troll. I mentioned quite clearly who I thought your better players are.

How about read my post again and recognise the part that says "which your club clearly doesn't place a lot of weight on" after you turned what was a proper discussion into some schoolyard vitriol "point to our stars leaving" BS.. "how many has Adelaide lost.. derp derp" which had nothing to do with any of the valid points I made re stockpiling other club's unwanted list cloggers. You were just slinging shit back and hoping enough of it would stick.

Lennon, Mcintosh, Vlastuin, Ellis, Batchelor, Martin and Conca have all been nominated in the last 5 years.

 

[Tiger71]

Yarran has officially nominated the Tigers.
