Carlton’s first and Mitch Lewis for Trac

Hard to gauge a value for Lewis. Doubt the Hawks do that though unless he pushes to leave and we throw something else back.

 

[Headless]

without going into massive detail, what part of Melbourne does Trac live?

 

[Proper Gander]

You postive? Means that his 33rd is in the early parts of 2029.

Are you sure?

This could make him 80 AT SOME POINT IN THE FUTURE which I can’t be arsed calculating, but concerning no doubt in the drafts and trades forum (which I have no intention of looking at for health and safety reasons)

 

[Proper Gander]

without going into massive detail, what part of Melbourne does Trac live?

In Melbourne, pretty sure on this

 

[SugarHealey]

I don’t see how Oliver can be moved though. He would have to have interest from somewhere and it’s been left too late

Frankston Dolphins need an in and under Mid.

 

[Headless]

I am aware of and support the Frankston Dolphins.

How much of his contract will they pay? Solid idea otherwise

 

[Bluelegs]

Would you like his address?

 

[SugarHealey]

I can’t tell if he wants to go or not. I’m not sure he can. Apparently the Geelong thing came about because he got wind of his being shopped around, so decided to take some agency once he felt he wasn’t wanted.

In reality, the kind of pay cut he would need to take to get some interest would be vast and improbable. Nobody is going to leave those kinds of millions on the table.

He (Oliver) can play all year at Casey. For all I care.

We will be better off without him in the middle. And he can't play any other position.

Maybe Joseph can pay him for some likely job... as a retirement benefit, after he retires from AFL at the end of this year. Pay him in Diamonds Joe.

 

[Proper Gander]

Wow

Maybe Diamond Joe can organise his retirement benefit.? ... and party, down at Frankston.

The game on the weekend was a beauty.

A friend of mine, Lucky's of Frankston... barracks for the Blues, Demons, and Frankston.

He watched it on TV. So did I.
Go Frankston.


I'll barrack for Frankston, after Casey tho.

Has to be Dingley.

Hard to gauge a value for Lewis. Doubt the Hawks do that though unless he pushes to leave and we throw something else back.

Carlton’s pick would probably be 12-13 after NGA, FS and free agency compo. (Currently pick 8 on projected end of season ladder).

Pick 13 in a shit draft + Mitch Lewis is probably still slightly unders for Trac who is a known commodity and currently contracted.

 

[The Dr]

wtf does Joe Gutnik have to do with anything?!

What are your top ten reasons for barracking for Frankston (after Casey) Sugar?

[schmuttt]

Man they live in an alternate reality on DL. Convinced Trac/Oliver should be kept because they'll come good, but if we are to trade them we will get 'high picks'. Then you've got the nuff fake ITKs claiming McVee has signed when its looking completely the opposite, and pretty sure the only reason that person claims to be ITK is they attend training reguarly.

[ray_purchase]

Can we replace Jason Taylor before the draft so he doesn't draft another Tholstrup or take a Windsor type ahead of a Curtin again?

That would be good if it could happen. Don’t need another Jefferson, that’s for sure. Can’t afford any more draft **** ups which we have had a few of lately.

 

[danster168]

we should be having a crack at Darcy Wilson and Luke Pedlar. both would be perfect for us.

Pedlar is basically a perennially injured version of Sparrow. Pass for me.

I think we'd take this deal tbh.

Our player development is a more concerning issue than our drafting. All of our young guys, bar Pickett, are stagnating or going backwards.

Would rather see a blowtorch taken to Choco (Head of Player Development) and Richardson (GM of Football Performance) rather than have a crack at the air conditioning repairman that whiffed on a few draft picks!
