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

[Saint]

I've been unusually impressed with the restraint of our posters, actually (none more than you, in fact). Almost everyone here has recognised that we'll almost certainly get well below value for Dangerfield and are making contributions and suggestions based around this logical assumption, instead of the "PICK 1 AND 2 OR PSD" nonsense we often see on this board. It's like we're already meeting them half way, with suggestions like Pick 9 and Cockatoo or whatever.

This is why some of the posts by Geelong fans on here have been annoying. We've got just as many clowns as them, but there seems to be a very poor understanding of the 'restricted' part of RFA on one side of debate. It's tough to lose your best player. To then have a very large number of posters basically suggesting we should be happy with the compo pick, and are acting outside the 'spirit of free agency' for wanting to match to negotiate a better deal for a player who is clearly worth significantly more than this, is a little tedious.

I know it doesn't mean much coming from me - a guy who threw out a pretty solid rant last night - but that's how I see it.

I understand why the cats are like this. They had a free agent who was restricted once, called Gary Ablett Junior, they quite liked him and he marched without much to and/or fro, so they think that's how all RFA's work.

The complicating factor in this one is that it's somebody leaving for probably less money (rather than more) so the home club is definitely going to be able to match the offer, which throws a spanner in the FA works.

Please find and send me 3 posts in the last few hours that are 'shit' from this thread.

Or, just get on with the discussion. It's posts like yours that are offtopic and time wasting.

I was never complaining. Over the week i've seen plenty of shit Geelong posts, but as I said, I'm not complaining. Fact, is not complaining. And because I'm not complaining, I have no intention of wasting life going back and searching for shit Geelong posts, which do exist.

Sen reporting Dangerfield for this year's first and next year's second plus player. Apparently Horlin-Smith is that fair?

No. Pick 13 doesn't come into it, under any circumstances.

That's basically saying - Dangerfield becomes an upgrade of pick 13 to pick 9, a upgrade of 4 picks this year and an unknown pick in 2016.

No thanks.

I think he's saying 9 this year and guesstimating 13 next year.

Pretty funny Zac Smith's manager basically saying it would take a miracle for the Cats to be able to conjur up a fair trade when they have to deal for Dangerfield first!

He also said that some of the things in the media haven't been reported correctly.

I assume this would be the part where he's chosen Geelong because he went on to say 3 clubs are interested and it will depend where Leuenberger goes.

That comment makes me think Geelong is leaking all this rubbish to try and scare the crows into thinking no picks will be left.

I thought we were looking for some outside run?

 

[MRB37]

Any chance that we send Geelong's 2nd round pick to GWS for Hampton? Or would we back ourselves in and send our own and hope we do better than Geelong?

I like the NBA system where if you have multiple picks in a round you can stipulate whether the team gets the pick that's worse than your own or the highest one.
