I said 37 for Brockman + later pick or a pick swap. It ended up 44 and an extra pick. So very similar on points Settled 5 days before the end of trade period. He wasn’t going to PSD
We are also relying on media reports of what was offered/rejected 😂
I will abstain from commenting further until it’s done but stand by my comment that psd is good for nobody in this situation and brokering future trades.
Wasn’t referring to you specifically here but more comments in general.
I have no skin in the game here. Don’t want him to come to Freo and trying to see it from a neutral point of view. Just think that walking a guy to psd is worst outcome for all parties when the difference between 37 and 44...
This is what I mean, you are torn between “he is going to be a gun” and “he isn’t worth more than 44”. Can’t have it both ways. If I was him and having committed to joining the club I’d be a bit disappointed they didn’t rate me any higher than my draft year and would happily walk me to the pre...
46. You would expect that after two years on an AFL list he is worth more than that, if he isn’t then why would you want to recruit him anyway.
Go for it, waste pick 1 in psd on him when you could get a mature age player who could probably walk into the current 22.
Yeah I get that but he wants you and you want him. Just pay 37 for Brockman and 54. Then pick up best available player at pick 1 in psd who will probably be better than pick 37
Was more so saying the guys with kids were closer to the end than start, where Freo could be on the verge of a baby boom!
It’s obvious he wants to be at the eagles and that’s fine, I just thought it was an odd thing to bring up the club having more fathers as a reason when you don’t have to...
I’m aware of that. I mentioned those guys earlier when I pointed out that most of the guys with kids are much older than Brockman.
To be honest I wouldn’t know how many Freo guys other than Walters have kids because their baby showers aren’t front page news. I assume Fyfe has probably adopted a...
I’m suggesting that the established WAG crew will probably treat them with the same level of disdain they have for Kelly’s mrs.
They come from very different worlds.
That’s fine, but ditch the weird excuse and just tell the truth. I can just see the 22 yo indigenous kid and his twins hanging out with Courtney Darling and Nadia Barrass in the northern beaches
This talk of Brockman wanting to go to West Coast because more of the guys have kids seems odd to me. The blokes that have kids are all the older ones aren’t they? Ryan and Cole the youngest I can think of and they be 27/28. Cripps McGovern Darling etc not going to be around for ever
Do you know if it can only be prescribed/used in hospitals? Eg must be administered by a nurse or Dr. Surely they not actually prescribing it for people to take home
True, but they are derivatives of amphetamine and most won’t show up in normal workplace drug screens. Most ADHD meds and duromine / phentonmine etc for weight loss won’t show if taken at prescribed dosage.
Dozens of employees I have had declare amphet based prescription meds only for nothing...
Interesting one as it’s not an illegal substance…. If you are a horse vet. Can actually be prescribed too so not the same as amphetamines or coke.
Quick Google says not typical run as part of a standard illicit drug panel. Suspect ASADA might though. Remains in system for 3 to 5 days
Normally these type of things are massively downplayed by the club, manager and teams mates.
For them to have said what they have, he must be absolutely cooked!
So now that the club has said they have concerns over his behavior and professionalism, willingness to meet standards, do they care to elaborate what exactly that means. Otherwise the drug rumours will continue to run rife
PSD threat for me is always a bit of a joke.
Say for example a trade deal on the last day falls through, leaving a much better player without a club. Or a total shock in draft where a half decent kid slides through. Or your ruckman or key forward does a knee next week. All of a sudden you need...
