Oppo Camp Dangerfield's Gone (Zero tolerance to trolling) - READ THREAD LINKED IN OP BEFORE POSTING

[Captain Furious]

No...

This draft is crap

The draft is as good as how a club can develop. He have proven over many years now our ability to pick and develop talent. See the positive in this.

What he's saying is THIS draft is crap. And it kind of looks like it too. Also not many players that suit our needs.

But...there's plenty of high level players looking to move. A few are at Brisbane who need early picks for their Academy players. Looks like we may be getting some early picks. Could be the perfect storm. If ever there was a year to eschew the draft and trade picks for top line players...this is it.

Hawthorn have shown you don't need the draft to win flags. The last player they drafted that turned out to be a star or looks like being a star is Cyril back in 07. That's a long time ago.

 

[douglyzia]

Sure, but he can get many an offer. He just gets to pick one. So....he is human...

Put yourself in his place
800k for 5 years = 4 mil
For an extra year he gets 6 mil more. Sorry don't care what you say....I would not even think about it.....this is real money btw.

Pretty sure the extra $6 mil would buy a bigger house than the one in Moggs Creek and pay for multiple nannies.

Costa might be able to help him here and there with a bunch of shit, but Costa ain't gonna fork out a lazy $6 mil surely.

 

[Connoisseur]

Hawks into their 4th straight grand final. We are a chance to draft two guns to build our team around. Let's take a leaf out of the hawks book and draft smart.

They've traded for Frawley, Lake, Hale, Gibson, Burgoyne, McEvoy, you're very own Gunston, etc, etc, etc, etc...

So no, their team is not solely built through the draft, not even close to that being true.

 

[ManInTheArena]

6 years 4.8 mil - geelong(no premierships)
6 years 10 mil - melbourne(maybe by a miracle of god premiership)
Do the math.

Dangerfield won't be thinking Geelong can't win one. He'd be right into their list management already plus he thinks he's Jesus.

Costa, the Pratt family and these sorts couldn't fart near a player now days without the AFL knowing about it. Some of the Geelong supporters are delusional about what he can do.

 

[Paladin]

PSD is obviously not an option for PD. Melbourne, Brisbane, Carlton will take him. Cats will pony up or miss out, I look forward to more Chris Scott sooking.

 

[PowerBaz]

I can see Danger missing out on Geelong, I dunno seems these trades always get done at some point, if not the last minute. It will hold everything else up though, hopefully the Dixon deal gets done for us but nothing is guaranteed. Letting him go into the PSD atleast lets you make a stand. Just hope Geelong don't try to be like Essendon at the trade table.

 

[jenny61_99]

Of course that is the story you would be telling if you were Mitch.

Sounds a lot better than the alternative.

Do you lie to your mates all the time? Whatever. Make your own reality up.

If certain crows supporters find his boat he may need to walk on water.

 

[FullyBigKPro]

Someone who is much more savvy than me should do some nice photo shopping on this one...

You know who in the middle.... $kirt and Mummys boy Gunston must feature too!

AFL only do something about it when they have to (ie. When a scandal becomes public). There'd be lots of brown paper bags/cars/internships going on behind the scenes.

 

[Moonwatcher]

Who will be pissed if danger goes to bombers with woosha?

Just saying

That would be the best outcome, particularly if we got something in return.

 

[Elite Crow]

Tell me about it!

Why didn't you tell us about it when talking up how you built your premiership teams?

 

[Elite Crow]

A sign of how much Danger loves himself. That 5aa fishing trip was supposed to be with Danger the CROWS player not Danger. **** going fishing with a traitor.

What about 2008? They have defos changed to keep momentum for these last few though!

 

[The Sloane Ranger]

In 25 years 14 finals 7 GF and 3 flags. we get it done. The premiership window/clock is rubbish just because we've been up doesn't mean we can't get there again quickly. When you're drafting blokes like Enright and Gregson at pick 47 you can see we do things a bit differently.

History counts for nothing moving forward

Yes and they also picked up Roughie, Buddy and Lewis out of the one draft, to they have a balance (lost buddy though). I did not state their whole list came from the draft, I said they draft smart. Trading has been second to none, no denying that.

 

[Wood_Duck]

Can't answer that. He said they just dropped off the radar. He was shattered.

Bris and Freo refused to deal was the issue I think.

Melb came up with a deal for Bris.

Take note Patrick.

How many of those come in if the hawks didn't win in 08 and have been a top team since 10?

Lol what? It counts for everything. Our history shows we are a stable club that is amongst it most of the time. We aren't in a 'premiership window' as people call it, but I'm not buying this BS that we are on the verge of being a rabble and finishing bottom 4 etc, that's just hilarious thinking.

We will be very competitive in 2016 and onwards.

you know history goes back before 2006?

 

[catman2006]

We have been solid last 25 years.....

No one here gives a crap. It adds nothing to the discussion of Patrick Dangerfield being traded to your club.
