Eagles turned Dockers

[thebaxters]

...and I don't mean Keyser

Was reminded that we drafted a player who was previously on the Eagles list; one Spider Burton.

Any other cross-city transfers or was this a statistical outlier, an anomaly the likes of which will never be seen again? Has a Docker ever ended up an Eagle?

 

[Borry]

David Hynes, Tony Godden, Scott Watters, Daniel Metropolis.

The only Dockers that I remember turning up as an Eagle are Trent Carroll and Greg Harding.

Eagles that have turned Dockers include Scott Waters and Daniel Metropolis.

[Reveler]

loads of crabs, I suppose thats why they go sideways

 

[Borry]

Scott Watters and Burton were the only two that were somewhat good.

On the other hand the only Dockers turned Eagles that I know of were dead set hacks, at both clubs.

 

[stylor]

Schofield?

 

[Borry]

Schofield?

Yes, Eagles player before going to Port.

If this thread isn't proof that we should never ever trade with the eagles again then I don't know what is.

Oi!!

Dream on, I'd be the best damn recruit you'd ever get.

OT, Wirrpanda and Phil Matera are but two players we have acquired thanks to our dealings with you lot.

 

[estibador]

Don't try to make it sound like we traded Wirra to you.

There's too many nuff nuffs on bigfooty who'll read that and add him to Lloyd on the list of players that we mythically traded away.

As for Steggles, I'm glad we avoided ever having that whinging little twat on our list. Plus who would've been been Roger's bitch then?

 

[Keys]

I knew I should have put the qualification that Wirra wasn't a trade as such, but a compensation pick for you guys taking Godden off our hands.

You traded Lloyd away

Hahahaha you fools.

Cousins will be pulling on the purple jumper in 09......First phase of his retirement plan.

Guns, both of them.

Actually, Carroll filled a role as a sacrificial body in defense while Hunter and Glass weren't mature enough, and Harding was as much a hack as he was at Freo. I don't know why we traded him for Metro. It was as much a lose/lose trade in the end as I've seen.

Hynes and Metropolis are probably the only guys that gave us valuable service before you ruined them.

lol... we ruined them??? They were hacks before we got them.

metropolis was hot and cold. mostly cold.

He was at the end of his career and past it when we got him

 

[The Night Shift]

I would be happy to take Shannon Hurn of their hands if they don't want him at the blue & yella peril........

 

[hoogs]

I know Hynes very well from playing with him and Mark Zanotti in the SWFL for Margaret River. To say we runied him is a complete joke that he would be dissapointed to hear. He had injuries and was getting too old. Read up on it a little first.

 

[bigkev bleeds purple]

There was one guy we took off their hands who could play a bit... one Dale Kickett.

 

[SS_Fury]

didnt know he was ever ours?

I'm sure it's a chapter of his life the great man is very embarrassed by so let us never speak of it again.

He would've still smacked out Read even if he remained there....
Anyways.. he is still one of my all time favourite Docker players..
