EFC Trade Bait 07'

[bossco]

Again with the personal insults. He's in SA.
I'm in Vic, you're struggling.

Stuggling? Clutching at straws maybe?
The whole point that you make is that you love talking about you club. Where do you get your info? Let the people know. Don't talk rubbish about the club. Don't kneel at the feet of the bolts and pevs of this world. You would be like a giggling schoolgirl when you are down at windy hill.

 

[bossco]

I suspect he means Longy is quiet respected around here. That doesn't mean he people have to agree with his opinions, and i'm sure there are some who do disagree with him at times.

How can anyone respect a grown man who pushes the disabled people out of the way to get a much loved personalised autograph from Bolts after training? We all know the type

 

[Longy413]

You already said I don't have inside info, so what does it matter?

Where have I praised Bolts and Pev, unless it's been deserved?
From the start of the pre-season I didn't have either in my best 22.

And where have I spoken rubbish about the club?

And again with the personal insults, you can't help yourself can you?

I think your just going a little overboard now. If you dislike, disagree...what ever else Longys opinion, ignore them...simple, problem solved

You still pretend like you are in the know

Fair point, finally some common sense.

And where have I spoken rubbish about the club?

Most of your posts

And again with the personal insults, you can't help yourself can you?

True. I'm like Rocky outside the pub in Rocky 5. But you are no Tommy Gunn

This is becoming a real street fight. Fought in the gutters. Who wants to see Long and Bossco go head to head?

 

[Longy413]

Are you going to prove it or are you just going to throw around unjustified slander?

 

[bossco]

Are you going to prove it or are you just going to throw around unjustified slander?

What am i proving? don't make me laugh.

 

[Longy413]

That I've spoken rubbish. No problem with making you laugh, thought I'd return the favour.

 

[bossco]

Your arrogance is getting the better of you. If this slander is unjustified why am i not the first?

 

[Longy413]

Are you not?

Or are you counting the thread from last week that lasted all of about 10 minutes until the individual was banned?

And I came to terms with my arrogance a long time ago. You don't succeed without it.

Just relax, go to bed and cuddle your missus. Or in reality say goodnight to mum and dad and go to bed under your single essendon quilt surrounded by your posters of bolts, cockatoo-collins and micky symons

 

[Longy413]

Fantastic.

 

[Nuts4Bolts]

What about a Michael Prior poster? Do you think anyone would still have one of them?

Movie quote, nice. If we were in primary school i may think of you as "playlunch cool." Not cool enough to hang around at lunch-time, but bareable at recess.

Wow, that's quite an imagination you have there sport. Autism is a bitch, don't let it get you down though.

Where do you get your info? Let the people know. Don't talk rubbish about the club.

opinion


• noun 1 a view or judgement not necessarily based on fact or knowledge.

He doesn't have "info." He has the above, an opinion, like the rest of us. We come to this place to air said opinions and argue our point via rebuttal and other forms of debate. If you can't understand this concept, you're at the wrong website.

Opinions are great but its the sycophants like you that keep our mediocre players thinking they are better than they are

Wow, a complex word and you managed to use it in context. Pity it doesn't quite fit the criteria of your subject matter. Better luck next time.

Why I'm even bothering here I have no idea but.

Wow, turning it into a personal attack, real mature mate. Grow up.

most random post of the month... that due for a 'lol' response?

So is it just me or does WC have the gayest club song in the comp?

Any more personal attacks mate and i'll give you the arse. Its hard enough to deal with opposition trolls without having to put up with rubbish from our own .

I don't mind it.

I dont think a great deal of you realise how strong this draft will be. If your talking about trading next year, fair enough but who know because they may get worse. You have got to bit the bullet and cut your ties or persist.
Take these things in.
1. If we happen to finish in the bottom 3, we may get Bryce Gibbs or even Joel Selwood. They will be quality players and many judges rate them both easily ahead of Mark Murphy, and we know how well he's going.
2. If we finish last, we may be able to persuade a quality player to the club regardless. Security of knowing we are going to have 1st pick, and being a proud club with a rich history, we could get a class player. Who that may be, we are yet to know.

Personally, I cant wait til the 2008 draft. A 15 year old down at Essendon Grammar will be a star in Addam Maric, who has strong hands, kicks it a mile and is almost a Hird clone in his style of play(Being a HF Flanker/Onballer).
Prehaps we can persuade him to keep under the radar and pick him up

I've played against him and he's very good. On the weekend he played for Calder Under 18s which is a huge effort for a 15-16 year old but he also managed 4 goals out of a forward pocket.

 

[Shane Hird]

JJ,Johnno,McVeigh,bolton,pev,5 players that could be offered to other clubs in return for a gun on-baller 23-24 old(In the style of an Embley or Bartel)players that are in their top10 but are not at the top of their clubs salary tree yet.Of course they would have to be out of contract and looking for bigger money than their own club offered.

Trading mj or jj would kill me as a supporter because i love these guys,but this is footy now.These two have lost pace and don't Kick enough goals, but they are still good players.worth something now-worth bugger all in two or three years.Bolton lacks "vision" around the ground. He seems to panic a bit when he gets the ball and is only effective when his confidence is up.He gets beat'in every time he plays on a star forward.maybe he needs a new club,new start.

Pev is a gem.He reminds me of some of my U7 AusKick players.Desperation,guts,the will to do anything to get the ball.But,its just not good enough at this level.He hasn't got the top level ball skills to really drill it into a forward's hands.

McVeigh has been great for this club.He struggled for about 4 years to cement his place in the side and he is a deadly kick for goal,good in defence.Exactly why he is worth $ now.Why take a risk and keep these older players and hope they play well and get us to the finals next year.I'd hate to be part of the EFC board at seasons end deciding who should stay and who will go.Its hard for us Essendon supporters to think of trading good players because we don't do it a lot, but we are in a postion where some tuff decisions have to be made.

Hardwick was the last gun player we traded,we didnt want to,but someone had to make room for the kids coming up.Welsh is having a slow start this year,but he will be right in time.He is a very hard nut,and history shows u need the nuts in the back line to win flags.NathanLM will develop into a top line running back flanker i feel.
We really need someone to anchor down c/half back and play there week after week.
The 2000 glory days were 6years ago.time to re-shuffle the decks and gamble on the new generation of young dons.I'm guttered about our progress this year but i'm excited about what lays around the corner at Bomberland......now if we could just get 2more years out of hirdy.................[/QUOTE]


One of my first threads posted...I was wrong JJ,MJ and McVeigh..sorry guys

Pev and Bolts are another story though.......

Paddy at CHB...problem solved
