"T.Xerri potentially out the door"
7 mins in

Is it just me or does Riley Beveridge look like on the weekends he is the lead singer of a Dr Hook tribute band?

The McPherson thing is potentially a genuine snag. Even though we all know the deal is primarily around pick #19.

The team would endure a salary dump scenario without dissent if it's 1-2 years but seeing a player who'd currently project in our 10-22 range racking up 3 years on the list might test their patience.

Particularly when length of list tenure has been a hot topic for us the last 2 seasons (Ziebell, Brown, Tarrant).

Unfortunately we may need to walk away if we can't find a GC player willing to take our terms and let someone else wear any potential collateral damage to their group.

The playing group don't have to rubber stamp every deal but they're human and we need their buy-in. They know how hard some of them had to fight for an extended deal and saw their teammates move on that too.

I'm starting to feel like we should walk away.
If its a future second - walk away
If he wont accept 2 + triggers - walk away.

Can you see him on The Cover of the Rolling Stone?

 

[Horace]

Let it out.

Let "what" out?

 

[Le Grille]

Let "what" out?

He took….it out

 

[7577969923]

Can you see him on The Cover of the Rolling Stone?

I absolutely can. I also think that when he's in love with a beautiful woman, he tells the world!

 

[Le Grille]

I can’t believe how shit this trade period coverage has been

 

[The Anvil]

I used to ask people why they'd give money to the Bush family crime syndicate or some other sleazy proto fascist dictators when they'd rack up.

Its a brutal industry, we like to say that about footy but its just a metaphor in sport.

Back when youtube first started Los Zetas would post executions (that lasted about a week) then the lead up to executions on their channel. Guys in balaclavas carrying assault rifles with someone sitting down, their hands and feet zip tied and looking either very scared or very defiant. It was disturbing stuff. (Not as bad as the people who'd share videos of sniper's shooting terrorists in Afghanistan but its all the same ball park and the Zetas were formed by former US trained mexican military so they all learned about modern propaganda together.)

If you are into hip hop Peruvian Cocaine, by immortal technique is pretty good. Pulls no punches.

When I was a younger bloke I didn't think about these things, just that the good times kept rolling. These days I look at the impacts left behind by my choices and roll a bit differently.

Anyway, conversation for another day as today is about bending over the Tigers, waiting for the eventual and predictable outcome, and then storming the Tigers board!

I'm sad about this. Xerri has busted a gut finding a pathway to the seniors, and we seem to have rolled it out for CCJ who has only played a few games and may have some attitude issues.

The selectors clearly know better, but I can see how the CCJ maybe deal might have got Xerri a bit offside.

I agree. I just wish he shown something at AFL level. He didn’t. We definitely gave him a decent run at it too and he just never fired a shot.

But again, big boys take time.

He’s not a fwd ruck he’s a ruck , to be fair he wasn’t playing his true position

But again, big boys take time.

He played well enough in the ruck, and not well enough up forward when getting an AFL opportunity. You can't play two ruckmen if both of them can't go forward.

As a kid who grew up a Roos supporter, I'd like to see him make it. I'd also like to see him fight for his spot though, Goldstein could potentially be in his last year and some growth from Xerri could see him in a tandem with CCJ from 2023 onwards (or if injury strikes Goldy in 2022).

 

[Devington]

I can’t believe how sh*t this trade period coverage has been

Really? Almost all AFL coverage is horse shit, and the Trade Aeon has always been the worst example of it. With no actual football to report on you get several dozen blokes that have NFI about trades, and then another dozen have beens that supposedly have credibility and only feature at this time of year. It's awful. The handful that do have a clue are worth listening to, but even then their hit rate isn't fantastic and you still have plenty of assumptions and guesswork thrown in, and even then they repeat the same shit 20 times a day because they're forced to be talking monkeys by their owners who want to spam you with ads.

 

[Only Forwards]

I can’t believe how sh*t this trade period coverage has been

What is it covering exactly?

the three moves that have happened and the posturing to drag shit out forever?

 

[ferball]

What basis is there for the Xerri rumour other than some guy on social media trying to fill air time?

 

[Le Grille]

What is it covering exactly?

Even the fact that they are filling time with this bullshit half arsed I researched list assessments is a ****ing insult. Cooneys ****ing stupid hypothetical trades? What a joke. Absolutely stealing money

 

[Shinboner1]

Make players all players out of contract (by the end of the season) free agents so they can go wherever they want.
Streamline the trade period and make it a week.
I'm sick of this BS, majority of trades get done on the last 2-3 days anyway.

 

[Shinboner1]

lol

 

[buttox]

Still plenty to "like" on their CCJ thread...

LOL

 

[Cyber_punk]

Tigers have zero leverage with CCJ but are being pains in the ass.

Take him through the PSD. We don’t owe anyone sh*t

Soon:

 

[Kangaroos4eva]

I think we long overdue for a hitler parody rant video.

Please make one.

 

[BlueRoos]

He’s not a fwd ruck he’s a ruck , to be fair he wasn’t playing his true position

With Nobes preference for multi position players, it may suggest why we are luke warm on him (if the potential trade rumours have any legs of course)

 

[Roo Beauty]

Matt Rendell really is a clueless idiot isn’t he?

 

[GreatBradScott]

There are a lot of people who should be banned from posting while trade period is on. Know most of us are in lockdown, but some real ****ing unhinged gear over stake knives.

Jesus. It's Day Two!

 

[the big lebowski]

I think omera might be a good get for the Gold Coast

Maybe Mitchell to the swans to replace an ageing Kennedy?

You're right that Xerri gives his all, and credit where it's due, but I think it was the flying ham who observed that Xerri was the least impressive player in a side that finished bottom. He had a longish run of games, and made next to no impact. If he gets a better offer, I wouldn't be standing in the way
