what?

 

[doug85]

I think this is a lame attempt of norf nuffs to try to get a fake rumour mentioned on Sam Edmunds trade bell.

there’s been literally 0 reporting mentioning a trade request on any news site.

 

[Doss]

That story came straight out of the meatgrinder.

Is that the book Nate bought?

 

[Cold Sober]

If he bought a Melways, PANIC.

Gee I thought his round 12 goal against Brisbane was a contender for sure.
He kicked that over his head.

This will not be popular, but I didn’t think it was that impressive

Kicking a goal over your head isn’t that difficult

That’s fair.

 

[yodellinhank]

Pretty sure he rightly ****ed something up before or after that too.

For mine, he doesn't have "it".

From 50 out it would be

Not really. Still were many better goals than Andersons. Was more impressive last year when it was a ruckman having multiple involvements and fending off.

For all his faults you have to give credit to Dodoro for live trading up the board to get Caddy. Even using another pick to secure him was worth it.
Could even end up with both Caddy and Duursma from the pointy end of that draft.

I mean, I guess. It was either Caddy or O'Sullivan, though, and Geelong ended up getting O'Sullivan and our 2nd round pick.

Hopefully it ends up a genuine win/win, as both players look good. But IMO O'Sullivan certainly isn't worse than Caddy + a player at this point

Yeah, they ended up taking Mannagh with the pick, I reckon they'd be happy.

How much credit do we give to Dodoro vs Rosa in this situation though? Is it a coincidence Rosa shows up and we nail the pick?

 

[DapperDon]

Far out guys, wrong time of the year to bump player threads for general chit chat

give a guy a heart attack

It honestly all depends on who you like more. If you’re on the fence on a player - maybe Lual for example - you can even throw a little RFK into the conversation to spice things up

It's harder to find good key forwards compared to good key backs. Caddy is probably the best actual non-F/S forward that we've drafted as a club since Lloyd.

All in all though I felt at the time that this was one of those trades where both clubs walked away happy/won and I still feel that way.
