Sam Flanders - has requested a trade/explore options

 

[Tas]

Can we perma ban anyone that keeps posting Duursma trade posts? :stern look

 

[The Nostradamus]

Is anything left of Sphynx for those that came late?

 

[backtothedraft]

Like clockwork

Honestly, apart from our strategy being completely rudderless and scattergun, I would love to hear the pitch on this other than:

"He's got experience and we think he has a few years of footy left in him"

How did Parker go about stopping those last quarter white flag surrenders this season?


We don't need ****ing experience, we need good footballers, preferably ones with more than 20 games left in their legs.

Fisher, Larkey, Zurhaar, Logue, Simpkin, Tucker, Daniel, McDonald, Corr, Parker, Darling are all approaching 30 or past 30....

We just handed one of our 26 year old $1.5m a season FFS.

We are back to wanting experience for the sake of experience....

**** me, this club and this coaches tenure.....

You’ve played and watched footy more than anyone on this board but can’t read. Stacks up..

 

[the big lebowski]

I’m not sold on young

Trembath gave him a bath just a few weeks ago

 

[Firebat]

If Butters is genuinely available and we have heaps of cap room… we should be offering the maximum available to snare him. Worst case he is driven out from Port, best case he slots in perfectly and could reshape our teams reputation.

He’ll be 25 start of next year so I’d be comfortable with 8 years on the table.

 

[giantroo]

 

[R00StaR]

And people think Duursma is desperate to get there based solely on them picking up his brother as a reject.

Seems more likely we get his brother for a soggy biscuit at this stage.

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

Haynes?

Another year?

He was cooked three years ago.

 

[Chip Scab1]

LDU??

He's big and strong. Powers away from peeps when he's engaged. I refuse to accept he's soft, as he's not.

Not disgustingly feeble anyway.

 

[King Corey]

Haynes?

Another year?

He was cooked three years ago.

Somehow both of these can be true:

He's cooked

He got Brownlow votes against us

 

[shinboner magic]

How are we to compete with this super team the bluws are putting together

 

[krakouers]

Could have saved a tanty....

Think we need to stick your sign at the top of this page again Kangaroos4eva

 

[iloveireland]

Merrett would be a huge get which is why it won’t happen

 

[The Nostradamus]

Merrett would be a huge get which is why it won’t happen

blank cheque and the captaincy to get him over

agree still can't see it happening but we should be asking the question nonetheless

 

[Event Horizon]

blank cheque and the captaincy to get him over

agree still can't see it happening but we should be asking the question nonetheless

If he is to leave, it will more than likely be to Collingwood or Hawthorn I'd say

 

[Elroo]

Merrett would be a huge get which is why it won’t happen

But it would be great if we did and * dropped to the bottom of the ladder with Bard, whilst we moved up in the 8 & finals contention!

 

[Harveysuth]

If Merrett leaves the dons the last place he’s joining is us

 

[Newbie Real Talk]

I’m not sold on young

Trembath gave him a bath just a few weeks ago

Young played on Whitlock in that game.

 

[roos_tt29]

If Merrett leaves the dons the last place he’s joining is us

This - good players at that point of their careers don't join teams down the bottom.
FA was never brought in to benefit struggling sides as much as the AFL try and spin it.

 

[Flawed Genius]

If Merrett leaves the dons the last place he’s joining is us

Bingo. All the talk is that he's sick of losing at Essendon. He isn't going to leave them and join a team which has perfected it

 

[FootySmartSimpson]

Seems more likely we get his brother for a soggy biscuit at this stage.

If we can glue Zane’s legs to Xavier’s over the summer, Zane might be able to run out a half in 2026.

 

[nicko74]

We need a midfield coach to teach these guys how to hit targets.

Swallow just retired

 

[Chip Scab1]

Merrett would be a huge get which is why it won’t happen

We could sell him on the fact he wouldn't have to move house, that's a big win for him

 

[Makeshift Park]

Don’t mind me.

Just imagining what Port and Essendon would be like in 2026 with no Butters and Merrett.

 

[R00StaR]

This - good players at that point of their careers don't join teams down the bottom.

Made sense on the surface, the lower clubs would have the cap space to offer bigger deals. Only it was always going to be the smaller clubs would have to overs. The SA, WA, bigger Vic clubs and lifestyle clubs such as Geelong, GC and Brisbane. The later appear to be a more recent thing, probably because the academies are making the Northern clubs overpowered.

Should WC get priority picks like we did, we'll see the huge difference in player they can get for a second rounder compared to what we could.
