Jason Tutt is a champion footballer.

That's it.... *deactivates account*

 

[doggies ftw]

Wasnt the reasoning used something like he didnt like always being tagged in posts mentioning Honeychurch? lol...

I bet he's still here anyway, my moneys on Ozil

 

[LittleG]

Completely off topic, but VitalDread where is TheHoneyBadger ??

He is a good bloke. Hope he comes back but he does have a point that it is annoying to be constantly tagged by people when discussing certain players. Many did it to him and many do it to MD.

 

[Pannalstaroz]

Out yourself Badger.

I for one hope he has a very long career at Carlton.

 

[fargy]

Bring back the honey badger!

 

[BallaratBulldog]

He is here, if you open up your heart you will have a bit of a honeybadgder in all of us.

Ok 1. Ya bastard immortal !

 

[Pugz89]

Not sure if it was mentioned in the HS article, but Hurley has met with Nathan Buckley already. So yes, he is clearly exploring his options.

If anyone thinks we couldn't afford him, then surely pies join us in that category. They'd be fairly close to 100% also.

 

[BallaratBulldog]

I don't think anyone will offer more than Richmond at 900k as rumored. If its money he goes there but they can never land big recruits for other reasons.

He deleted his account but pops in from time to time

Shame

Methinks he's closer than you think....closer than you think

 

[Del165892]

That JEDi 44 or whatever account is probably him. He likes to name himself after spuds.

I'm not at all surprised that Richmond would have 900K of space in their salary cap. Their list looks as shallow as a Republican party debate when discussion turns to the size of the potential presidents penis.

 

[Super Hans]

I doubt he'll leave, but there's a thread on the d&t board about Lachie Whitfield. If we can't land one of the Essendon players then I'd be all over him.

I don't think he'd cost that much money wise and I reckon he's going to be a star. Very classy player.

No we need him? I think our strategy needs to be build with what we have and continue to be smart through the draft. I can't see too many holes in our list. TC, Will and Roughy are perhaps the weakest link, but they are all serviceable. Let's continue to get the culture piece right and not jump at ridiculous trades or pay a fortune for a FA and then lose one of our guns because we can't afford them.

I think we're at the point of time where (ruckman aside) we either look at FA (ie Suckling is an upgrade on Grant) or hit the draft. Trade for needs, draft best available from here

In my view Whitfield doesn't really have any elite qualities to be a real star. Doesn't have the size, speed, inside game, nor does he have the footskills of someone like Bob Murphy.

Won't ever be a top 10 - 20 mid in the game.

 

[Bemoreboyddog]

Pass on Whitfield. Like him, just don't need him.

Slightly harder version of an Aish or a Toumpas. Good player, would be a best 22 but I don't think we will ever see these types go picks 1-5 again in a moderate draft. Pick one in the Stringer year if I remember right

 

[Dannnnnnnnnn]

Not a Whitfield fan.

GWS with Whitfield, O'Rourke and Plowman and yet 5, 6, 7 was Stringer, Macrae and Wines.

I feel as though Whitfield might reach Marc Murphy or Trent Cotchin heights but really with the number 1 pick you want someone who is constantly in the top 10 or so mids for a large chunk of their careers.

Whitfield doesn't have that ability in my view.

 

[dergert]

900k for Hurley is preposterous.
