Interact with those inbred hicks and get banned from the entire website. Not unexpected.

Hope our mods give their posters site wide bans if they dare post on our board. Unless our mods are Adam "its ok to lose" Simpson kind of soft.
 
I don’t see how moving Hickey on for a minor pick upgrade in an unknown draft is a good idea. Bailey should be our second rick next year so we’ll only have crab Vardy and beanpole Jamieson as our backup.

Hickey is a required player imo.
Hickey was poor for us this year and we almost have no use for him anymore. Anything positive we can get from him is good.

Allen can always play ruck too if we get desperate.

I'd presume we'd pick up someone like Ryan Abbott or similar as depth/coverage if they let him go.

I think I know who our first Rick should be

Yep...He'd fit in well!

Yeah I’m torn. He’s definitely required if NN needs a rest or injured. On the other hand, he’s 29 and we have a shit draft hand. It’s probably the last chance to get something for him before he packs it up. Also, we can’t rely on two 30+ year old ruckman. Time to get someone new ready I reckon.

Isn't that why we drafted Bailey Williams?

That’s premiership crab Vardy, if you please.

Bailey Williams was not bad from what we saw, Allen is good support and Vardy is ‘break in case of emergency’. We barely paid anything for Hickey, he’s not much chop, if a club is willing to give us anything for him, we should take it with both hands.
 
They will part with at least 2 first rounders, mark my words. There is no other way the trade can get done and there is no chance of him walking to the draft.
GWS should start at all 3 first rounders (assuming they can't convince any decent players to jump ship).

Cameron's CV is every bit as good as TK's, and he is no longer uncontracted, so the price should be similar (2 firsts and 2 seconds is pretty similar to 3 mid-late firsts on points).

Yep, having a decent backup like Hickey is a luxury we probably can't afford with list sizes being cut.

We had 5 rucks (out of 45 players) on our list last year, and most weeks played 1 of them. Insurance is fine, but Insurance for the backup and the backups backup is ridiculous. We wonder where our mid depth is, and why we don't get a state league ready to go player - because we have 10% of our list as backup rucks.

Turn Hickey into an improved draft hand (assuming he is happy to go), probably cut Vardy too.

Might even be worth looking at some like Sam Skinner. Thought the lad showed potential as a forward. 198cm and 100kgs. Should go okay as a back up Ruck with some training too.

Okay, no response..
The reason I asked is that there was an interesting gathering at a western suburbs hotel this evening. Simmo, Glass, Doogs and Young. Fairly informal but Young doing a bit of "behind the hand" comments to Simmo while Doogs and Glassy were talking. Simmo bought the snacks, a bit of finger pointing and nods in agreement and generally good natured meeting. Went for a good 3 hours.
Young presents as a dickhead!

just say the hotel name .. gees

3 hours? you musta been almost pissed enough to go and ask em what was going on.:drunk:
 
even though Reid failed I was disappointed by WCE to treat Treacy and Reid like they were supposed to come in and be champions from day one in a limited season and scrambled pre season ..I can only assume they were just drafted to help Wce field a practice team for this year ..
I dont think they expected them to be champions but be better than they were. They weren't kids.

Anyone know much about Tom Powell?
He sounds a bit like a Lachie Neale clone...Any chance to drop to our 1st due to being small?

Sorry ArdentEagle to be the one to spoil the party..... but...... Absolutely NO chance.

He is very like Neale, I have a first round grade on him, reckon he comes off the board at the end of the first round... very early second at worst.

If we could somehow miraculously trade into the top of the first I would be thrilled if we called his name out.
