Mitch Cleary makes a good point, Eddie in Adelaide today for some event, probably delaying the announcement until he's in Melbourne tomorrow for Presser/photoshoot.


Suggested that Betts, will be within 24 hours.. so that would make sense

And haggling over Papley/Martin trades, seems to give the impression, they could be sooner than later too.. well at least that's what i read into their comments.




Busy Friday? At least we hope..
 
Yep, which is slightly different to "it's happening", or "Martin will be one of the first deals to be done, or a big fish is about to announce, two weeks ago.
Sounds like they are happening. They’re still debating the actual trade terms, it’s in progress, by definition it is happening.

By the looks of it Martin very well could be one of the first deals to be completed. Not like all the other clubs have got the majority of all their trades done...

If you don’t want rumours and just want facts, just watch the afl trade tracker page (it auto-refreshes).

I know there's a 99% chance it's not, but is it possible De Goey is the mystery player we've all been pondering about for the last few weeks? :think::think::think:
I reckon we've been after a few. All those mentioned plus one who came to us. I don't doubt we would be looking into J.D.G. as well.
It would be beyond amazing to land a very very good mid along with the 3 trades we know of.
I'm sure we'll also be fine if these explorations don't land.
The only thing to cause a melt here would be Paps kidnapped at the last minute by hideous pirates from the drug infested waters of the enemy realm.

I read into their comments that they have absolutely no idea and were just guessing.
 
How long are trade periods in other sports?

In American sports (I only follow the NHL) you can usually trade the whole year round, up to a 'trade deadline day' usually around 2 months prior to the regular season ending...a lot of player movement waits until the deadline day - that is because teams not making playoffs sell players at inflated prices to those on the cusp of playoffs

People complaining about us getting nothing done don't get how trade week works. It's neither straight forward nor easy.

We jump into trades quick we get screwed. It's that simple.

For example... Want Papley and a second rounder for pick 9. Not just Papley for 9. We need to wait until Swans get that pick. They will probably get it but not until they do their impending trades. Often it means getting 3 or 4 clubs to all get their ducks in a row and that takes time.

Trade landscape is changing quite a bit, that's going to chang how we and others go about trades. Best we sit back and see what clubs come up with for a while before we pounce. Wouldn't want to miss the opportunity to get martin and Paley with pick 9 or something like that.

The longer we wait the better our deals will be.

ITKs don't have good track records when it comes to times, probably because of this. They also don't promise anything as these are rumors.
 
that ****ing afl app alerts me with "dees close in on pa"...…….I shit myself and open the thing to see the rest...……….."cy docker"...………...**** me dead...…….

Of course they are happening, there is no doubt they will get done.

Happy for rumours and I will judge the veracity based on the poster, all I am saying is if you are going to give people ice don't complain when they become hyperactive.
 
Is everyone excited for trade radios greatest hits tomorrow? Same shit worded different in a different order

Nope. Haven't listened to 1 second of that crap and not planning to. It's no coincidence hardly any deals have been made at this point, and a Plodder like Grant Birchall (with all due respect) signing on at Brisbane is being treated as ticket tape parade type of breaking NEWS FFS

Trade period is a joke. Seriously 2 trades in 4 days.
Think of it this way. If you have a work deadline that you are given two weeks to complete, you'll take that two weeks every time.
 
Perhaps if we weren't continuously promised an imminent deal or announcement by ITK posters that never arrives we would be more relaxed.

Lol promised. Turn it up. Take the info with a grain of salt and be grateful for the insight. Or converse to that, don’t read them so you can be more relaxed.
