Bluemour Melting Pot XXI - Like seriously, the polar ice caps have got nothing on us

Murmurs of a delisting coming from Princes Park - not a player

I trust the source, but can't say much more. Not fishing for anything, just passing it along.

Doors open at 9am but screening doesn't begin until 3...

Trailers from 3 till 7

Am I the only one that isn't overly shitted off at Dodo?

Trade period is a negotiation. Negotiations involve offers, counter offers, games of chicken and stall tactics.

Daniher is contracted. If * want to keep a potentially disgruntled player, then that's their choice. If they get less compo under FA next year, that's their problem. They are under no obligation to make the Papley trade easier for us to pass.

Would I like all the deals to be done on day 1? Sure. But the negotiations aren't being done for the benefit of BigFooty users and general footy fans.

going further with this - i suspect that Dodo's position could get us better value in the Papley trade - Sydney REALLY need pick 9, and will become increasingly desperate for it

delist a non player?, you mean fire, made redundant?

Maybe Dodoro & SOS are in it together as they are both trying to deal with Sydney.

No trades till 3pm and 8 more hours of Dagwood dogs or Pluto pups....
FML

If I hear another Imar or Soap for tradies ad I’m actually gonna go insane

 

[Bearded Carpenter]

Don't you mean "wasn't touched"?

not sure what your talking about

 

[djholmes]

What is SOS doing - just offer Pick 9 for Papley for nothing in return and Pick 43 and Future 2nd Round Pick for Martin.

We've delisted someone not on our list? Hope it was Danniher

Watch the forum clamour for it to be Barker.

For those of you who don’t know and are wondering why there have been no trades today.

Keeping television partners happy ...
By Peter Ryan
Just so you know, clubs aren’t allowed to officially lodge a trade (and its paperwork) until 3pm on deadline day.
Normally, on every other day of trade period, clubs can trade between 9am-5pm.
This ensures there's late drama on television tonight, it seems.

Well I certainly will be boycotting the final trade night coverage on Fox Sports and I assume Channel 7. Not going to indulge these galoots by signing to their tune. Got better things to do with my time. This crass commercialization of the game gets worse every year. The TV networks have far, far too much influence on this league (especially with compromised/tainted draws which saw Richmond finish the home and away season with 7 games at the MCG)

Nope - like everyone else - just trying to do the best for his employer. Managed to get Shiel/Saad/Stringer/Smith all of whom in combination have kept Essendon from 'bottoming'. Didn't look happy with what he needed to pay for Shiel to get him - how much was that call in his hands - no one knows.

Daniher is a huge loss to Essendon though - would be like Jack Sylvagni being the standout best game breaker at Carlton - and asking for a trade - because he no longer likes the Club! Dodoro has been dealt a shyte hand with that one - makes me happy just thinking about it.

Wow you're right! It is that easy! Why aren't you a list manager at a club? You should start handing your resume out /s

Why didn't I think of that! I am such a fool! Such dishonor to my house!

SOS knows what he's doing. Whatever happens will be good for the CFC. He won't have us out of pocket.

How do you know he hasn’t?

Sydney are not likely taking pick 9 unless they know it helps get Daniher

 

[T2B_]

So here's an idea.... if you're gonna have an overly long trade period, why not have more TV coverage earlier on?

That way you don't have dramatic galoots like Dodo waiting until the last freakin minute and dragging the whole thing out.

I'm sure barass SOS knows what he's doing.

 

[Elmer_Hauser]

I want Daniher to stay, us to get Papley and Ess to remain crap....

I want us just to get Papley to improve us as a footy team, not worried about the Essington equation, I am sure they will still be mediocre for years to come under chairman Tanner and Dodo running the list management show anyway

 

[lily of laguna]

You know they became extinct because they couldn’t fly (didn’t need to) and the introduced predators had a field day. They also tasted like shit. The Dodoro comparisons make sense.

But...... the goodies said they were delicious.

Delisting but not a player?

What could that be? Josh Fraser's house?

You win!

 

[Pablito]

Supposedly no trades can be made till 3pm lol. The AFL haven't even staffed the room yet.

What a wank.

 

[Juddrockz]

Interesting that we've swapped later picks with the Swans in order for them to secure Lewis Taylor, according to Ralphy

Why would we be helping the Swans if something wasn't coming back the other way?
You rub my back and i'll rub yours kinda thing.

 

[JuddgementDay]

Wasn't there talk of Campo coming in?
