[BlakeyNoFlakey]

My sauces are saturating my dinner atm. It's a Marvel!

 

[Munich]

Why were St Kilda pushing their captain out?

 

[catempire]

Depend how much we think we need a new ruckman to get through the season. We were playing with fire this year, could be ugly next year.

There’s still a right price and it’s not north of our 2025 R1.

FEVER PITCH

 

[SkittleCats]

Melbourne are the definition of a basket case and their handling of the Oliver situation is the hallmark of that status. Getting what they got for him, and paying half his salary still, when they couldve got the deal from us last year...

 

[Pure_Ownage]

Why were St Kilda pushing their captain out?

Hes on a bloated wage and they wanted to drop him to the vfl for form. Cap dump for melb to take his contract.

 

[Lana]

Still not worth overpaying.

The price is eleveated as we have a perceived need. St Kilda think that Marshall is an era defining pick up for us and that they have us by the balls.

We should have eyed a cheaper secondary a week ago to try and shift that narrative.

 

[catempire]

Why were we so into oliver last year when he was ungettable and yet this year when they were throwing him away for chump change we had no interest?

The Crab

 

[CatsDoItBetter]

Disappointing to not come out of this with a ruck, with Marshall not possible I hope we were looking at some other options.

The Oliver deal is terrible. Wouldn't have had to pay this much wage if they sent him here last year.
They have cleaned up on the petracca deal though-massive picks haul albeit in a poor draft.

Needed the cash.

Different regime. Kingy is at least trying to right their wrongs, he's going to get nothing out of it due to their previous incompetence.

Brad Green was such an idiot that you'd be forgiven for thinking he was a double agent.

 

[Grimoz]

Taking the piss now, our offer was better than that!! **** Carltank!! They just didnt want us to have him

 

[Pure_Ownage]

Any ruck we take like Goldstein will be in the DFA period not tonight.

Tough job for King.

We can still go for a cheaper secondary in the DFA and SSP periods. I would walk away from marshall.

LOL our offer was better. Carlton are useless.

 

[patience]

Have people been listening to this rot all week?

 

[PayFL]

Have people been listening to this rot all week?

Indubitably

 

[cats_09]

Why were St Kilda pushing their captain out?

Because they no longer saw him as a best 22 player and the fans wouldn't have been happy watching him play out the remainder of his Saints career in the VFL

 

[thegerman]

Well we could have stopped the thread 5 or so days ago when I said we were getting Jack Sheite. And no, he’s not a ruck

 

[foxdog50]

Its happening... you heard it from me...
Shannon Byrne's just text me

 

[Hamingja]

He has already gone to Melbourne sorry

They fumble at every turn that mob.
