Delisted #25: Alex Morgan - Signed with North Melbourne as a DFA - 1/11/17 - delisted again - 25/10/18

[Jade]

I can see North's strategy now...pretend to go for Kelly and Dusty whilst the real target was Morgan! Cunning.

Those crafty bastards!

 

[BrunoV]

North must be offering him 2 years

Would be crazy for him not to go if that was the case. The alternative would be a list spot for a year which is really only being made available because we're not focusing on the draft this year.

 

[DERO]

YESS

We offered him another year but he would rather be North's next Nahas.

Fair enough.

No worries here

Should have been Bonner

 

[Jobe Watson]

Hope he knows what he's doing. Wouldn't be the first player to turn down a contract on the guarantee that another club will offer them a better deal, only for that club to later renege.

 

[Jade]

Good on him. Hope it works out for him with a fresh start.

Glad the club delisted him too in order to make it easier for him to move.

Should have been Bonner

Bonner, Balic, Mathieson, Clarke, Hardwick & Hibberd

This was my wishlist for our 2nd rd.
Any 2 of those.

I would have been happy with Bonner and Redman

Dodoro and his weird, second round picks that makes everyone cringe.
Steinberg and Morgan are the two where everyone wondered what he was doing.
If we had Parker and Mathieson, like most people wanted, we'd be in premiership contention.

Now we get nothing for him either.

There must have been a clear 'go home' factor for Bonner to have slipped that far. Was a standout player in the champs that year for SA

Zaka, Carlisle, Z Merrett turned out okay

He was an Essendon fan and said he wanted to be drafted by us

Could say the same without him aswell. Could have also gotten Sam Menegola, Tom Papley, Tom Phillips or Riley Bonner. Honestly wasn't a great amount of high end talent after the Morgan pick so its not so bad at this stage.

Zaka, Carlisle, Z Merrett turned out okay

None of those were weird reaches when needs could have been addressed. I was wanting us to take Merrett and Zaharakis so badly. I wanted Aaron Black with the Carlisle pick, haha.

Our plan is as cunning as a fox who's just been appointed Professor of Cunning at Oxford University.

Those crafty bastards!

Those crafty peasants you mean?

Alex wants to be the next tripod?

The craftiest and the peasantiest...

You were publicly educated in Tasmania weren't you?

Not high end, but Bonner, Clarke, Hardwick & Hibberd looked like very solid 2nd rd pickups

Morgan was a bit of a reach at that stage.

It was a good draft for us though
Parish, Francis, Tippa, Hartley, Brown
was happy with Nyuon at the time too. That was a shame.

Yeah.

Me and my cousin-sister got taught the words there.
