What did we get for Jamie Cripps? Or did we just have to gift him over? Watching his DT and SC soaring along makes you think that was another bad year for us. We didn't know about his problems, and it was better he went home. But no wonder we are so far back with busts like that. EEK...Luke Parker at 40 that year.

Old ground I know. But will take a few drafts for us to get where some of the developing sides are at the moment. And nailing the picks.

We got Murdoch and Saunders for him.

 

[Verdun66]

Ok, that's not too bad. Had forgotten. Both soldiers at the moment. Murdoch a chance to be above average. Hope his injuries are short term. Saunders a goer, but not really quality.

We are above Geelong on the ladder!

The trade was:

Cripps & pick 45 for picks 40 & 43

So we basically swapped Cripps for a pick that got us Murdoch & upgraded another pick by 2 spots

Not that great TBH

god people are talking like cripps is a gun. i'd personally pick half of the Subiaco Lions before I picked him

Thats a big call Defacto.
He is hardly going to be a champ, but he aint that bad. He'd be in our best 22 ATM

He's a quick outside type that makes good decisions and executes them well. We would love him in our team. Was just given a three year contract. He's doing well for himself.

Some people see horse shit.
Some people see fertilizer.

In a season of damning statistics its nice to have some positive stats about 4 players who should all be a big part of our next finals push.

Malceski out for 2 weeks
Swallow out for 8-10 weeks
Day out for 4-6 weeks

Not looking good at all at Gold Coast Suns..

Given the train wreck that they are fast becoming, surely their uncontracted players may want out?

Charlie Dixon & Rory Thompson - Welcome to StKilda in 2016

There's our forward/ruck & KPD sorted for the next 8 years... And just hit the draft for mids

First thing I've genuinely laughed at on the footy show in years with the old man suit.

Don't watch it but had it on last night in the background.

Absolute gold IMO. Gotta hand it to Crawf.

Can't wait to see Joey getting owned.

Apparently he didn't take it that well, should be funny to watch

 

[God Save Max King]

I'd have great respect for any Lions supporter who wishes Aish good luck if he leaves. I certainly wouldn't do the same in that position.

 

[joop]

I can't believe we lost to Carlton by 40 points

Rahul good comment. Like to think I would be gracious that if he didn't want to be with us, but know the reality is I would add him to the Plugger, Hall, Ball, Lyon etc shit list.

 

[Mowman]

Cripps doing well again looks like a player

 

[joop]

Thank god we trade for Jacksch & Whiley, look so far out of their depth. (Kids,time,blah blah)

Bit of a difference if a player has been there for ten years and given you many seasons of watching pleasure ( Plugger).
But id be super pissed off if i was a Brissy supporter and Aish walked out.
I think if you get a draft pick in the top 10 they should automatically have to sign for 3 yrs.

 

[CALL ME SNAKE]

F#*@K!!!!!!!!
I keep bloody forgetting to put footy tips in for fri night

I agree.

Whiley has pretty shit disposal.
