So those images made more people want to go to games, and forced the club into making good decisions?
I dont get what you're saying, and I dont think you do either.
No, those actions brought embarrisment and negative attention to the club which made their positions less tenable and forced change of the boards.
if people protested Triggy every day he came to work, and everday rang the club to complain about him, and a campain got going where people said they would bit renew their tickets and memberships dropped to 15,000 Triggy would be gone. Only a simpleton wouldnt understand that.

People did, for a long time.
The club made its choice.

Other than that idiocy, I dont think Trigg has done a horrible job.
Either way, did it work for Melbourne? Pretty sure they were tearing up their memberships in like 2006.

Thats because Collingwood has a very professional trading department.

It's because White had fewer suitors than publicised, and Sydney absolutely had to get White and his salary off their books to fit Franklin, hence Collingwood held a much stronger position.

Dont bother.
Cleric is an expert on the goings on inside not just Adelaide, but Collingwood too.
Doesnt mention the fact that we got pick in the 20s for Vince which is as good as snaring White for 40 something.

The Pies have been great traders and drafters for along time. So good infact we sent them Rendell.
Carlton also wanted White but he nominated that we wanted to go to the pies. The Pies knew Sydney needed him gone big time to allow them to get Buddy in their cap. So the Pies held firm.

Theyve drafted and traded so well recently that theyve dropped from Premiers to probably not even in the 8 next season.

Last year: Dawes and Wellingham out, Q-Lynch and Young in. I wouldnt call that a win.

Dont forget to list the draft picks they got for them tho and then who they drafted with them. They won big time. And the Pies have won a premiership lately. How many have we won? Whos got the better list? Who knocked us out of Prelims at AO?
Seriously.

I believe Mackay should be traded if get decent trade and be beneficial for both parties as he needs something for him to play to his ability and we can afford to lose him and give us better opportunity to get Edwards and a ruckman forward without using pick 23 .
Even if dont even get any pick for McKernan please delist and let us move on and use pick to draft someone that might work rather than stick with Smack who we know now is a flop of first degree .
Please lets stop kidding ourselves might come good.
Any pick under 20 is too much for Polec even though has talent .

I guess I should just get around then?
No, just keep your whinging in the correct thread so most of us that are over your negative posts don't have to read post after post after post of your negative comments in in this thread.

This is the Trading and Free Agency thread. There is a thread were you can moan about Trigg all you like, keep it there.
