DL 'ITK' swinging for the fences...

My favourite line: "Dees are confident but can't say with any certainty GC will let him go" ... What sort of non commited confident nuffy each way bullshit is this.

 

[Crusty Demon]

If it keeps Koz at the club and happy, then I'm all for it. Pick in the 20s in a s* draft. We lack small forwards. Lack x factor. Why not.

I'm all in we're getting him

Take me to Heisenberg.

Need to have a look at full game recaps with all his touches rather than a 1:20 highlight package to know. SANFL reserves not exactly great competition.

Pickett certainly would fit our needs but certainly would need to see more.

I agree but lets finish the phase of the period. Then we can trawl YT for highlights.

 

[A11dAtP0w3R]

Why do that to yourself. Always side with us not getting anyone, it's the safest play as a Dees fan.

I'll only melt if we don't get Humphrey OR 7&8.

We're getting Humphrey though **** that.

I think we'll get picks. Picks can't say I don't want to play for Melbourne thankfully.

Yeah. Also hard to get a read on his body language with the long, wide camera angle.

 

[markm106]

Suns playing this beautifully. Get Trac and enough points to pick up 2 x top 5 players and another top 25 player. All for pick 7 and 8 if that’s what we get. Losing Humphrey will be a blow to them. Interesting to see if he makes a trade request.
Tomorrow a big day for that and potential Merrett request.

 

[Scythe]

Oh, we're still on this Humphrey thing are we?

 

[markm106]

His body language is telling me he wants to play for Melbourne.

 

[Crusty Demon]

Oh, we're still on this Humphrey thing are we?

It's what, 3 days away from trade deadline? Humphrey ain't happening. Would be huge, but not happening. Picks 7 and 8 best we can hope for. Just hope we dont give up our 2nd rounders along with Trac. Push for that pick upgrade for GWS first. If we can end up with 3 firsts and a second rounder or two, plus our late picks for White etc. Thats about the best we can hope for now.

 

[DEESNUTSRBIG]

Alex Cincotta Age: 28yr 9mth
Games: 40 (2025 : 5, 2024 : 16, 2023 : 19)

We need good role players not useless accumulators like the Billings, Hunter, Laurie, Salem types.
Cincotta is bigger, stronger and quicker that nearly all the opposition small forwards in the comp.
He does not get much of the ball but he is quick unlike the snail Salem.
He had a bad hip injury this year and played through pain. He reminds me a lot of Michael Hibberd

With Hibberd long gone, McVee now gone and Rivers going into the midfield (with Oliver & Petracca out) there is a spot begging for him in our backline.
Can even tag the big stars like Merrett and Butters if needed.
Its a no brainer to bring this bloke in.

 

[schmuttt]

Oh, we're still on this Humphrey thing are we?

Negative campaigners are us over here

 

[PerfectFooty]

Nah

 

[I Love Lamb]

7/8 which becomes 11/12 in a trash draft isn’t anything to sing home about for our 2nd best player who is contracted. It’s about right, just. No other club in the league would give up there 2nd best player for any less.

I will accept it as a straight trade but if Lamb flogs off our 2x2nd rounders and our 3rd rounder and Oliver compo as well with Trac I will melt.

Suns getting points isn’t our problem to solve. They can give up some futures for our points if they need it that badly.

 

[Scythe]

Decades of conditioning, my friend.

It's either we miss out, or we get him and then he:

a. Becomes best friends with Jamarra, Bailey Smith and Clarry, or
b. Simultaneously blows out both ACLs on day one of preseason

 

[schmuttt]

I will melt.

Could have just posted this mate.

Cheer up sook. We've had a miserable few years, have some fun!

Don't stress, I'm sure I'll go full nuffy in the lead-up to Round 1 again when I don't have to think about Goodwin, Oliver and the words 'contest-defence'.

I just don’t think GC lets Humphrey go this year, as nice as that would be.

Humphrey was never happening. Even if he could leave it wouldn’t be to us.

People need to start thinking about picks 11/12 and 28

 

[MarcMaverick]

I am waiting for D'nuffyland to be right for once. I'll probably be worm-food by then.

 

[Toump Ass]

Why can't we get Humphrey?
Do gold coast want Petracca or not.

Yes they want Petracca, Humphrey and all the draft points. And they’ll will get it all.
