LOL - I wonder what you really think of Mark Stevens - you know, that guy who gave so much pleasant commentary on the Dangerfield deal.

And Jon Ralph who would give us complement after complement when we were trading Dangerfield.
Is that the Mark Stevens and Jon Ralph who said Geelong wouldn't trade? And I can't believe you brought up Ralph, he is known as an idiot up there with Rucci and Bonehead.

Ralph makes this face like he's concentrating really hard to stop his eyebrows from falling off his face when he talks.

Charles is contracted and I doubt he'd want to leave Adelaide and Eddie. Can't see it happening - and I'll be really really pissed if it does. Yet to be convinced that Gibbs is the right 'fit' for us - and certainly not at the expense of Charles.

So we only like them who are nice to the crows?
You just don't get it do you?

After reading my posts for a few years now do you honestly believe I think the club doesn't deserve to be criticised when it's warranted?

As I do on here when I think someone's is full of shit I let them know, it's the same with journos having crappy opinions. It has nothing do with if they are criticising the club, its whether they are talking shit or not.

Cameron was prepared to die trying against Sydney in the semi final. Those players you never let go. Coupled with the fact he is a massive X factor.

He will get to a stage in his career where he only needs 15 or so disposals to turn a game on its head.
Yep. Even contemplating trading Charles is absolute nuts. At the risk of overstating it, he's not a 'fit' to Carlton anyway.

Newcastle, Colorado Rockies.
His complete lack of right side is a liability that's enough to make him "expendable" IMO.
Posts like this and how some have seen the idea of trading in Gibbs makes me wonder if our supporters hate the idea of someone who isn't a butcher of the ball.

Dangerfield + pick 50 was worth picks 9, 28 + Gore.

Gibbs worth pick 13 plus a player like Mackay, CEY or Lyons.
Don't think so, Patrick was in the top 5 players in the league, 3 years younger and now the best player in the league.
Imo danger we got unders and gibbs for 13 plus a player would be overs.
Gibbs worth no more than 13 but as he is contracted yes, we may have to add something.

He does get it 100% but takes a contrary view in an attempt to start a fight. If you'd agreed with Bone he'd have said it was a stupid article. With respect, I'm surprised more people haven't caught on yet! Hahaha

And that's my point, when their opinions changes and it become a positive - that 'full of shitness' goes away

Someone is full of shit or they are not. Just like on this board, if someone is full of shit - they are full of shit 100% of the top.

And yes, I maybe full of shit to you but I really don't care.

+1

If you want a fit, tbh Lyons is the perfect fit. They are too stupid and arrogant to see this. Mackay and CEY are definitely not. But Lyons would be a solid player for them.

They are blinded by not seeing what will happen in 4-5 years time when Lyons will be at his peak. A solid B class player.

I don't know about that pick 13 and Charlie cameron is gathering a s%t load of momentum.
The longer we make you guys wait the more likely it will happen and the more you guys will give up.
SOS can be stubborn .
It's not gaining any momentum, charlie is not victorian, he would have no interest in playing in victoria.

The AFC can wait, they dont have any other trades to worry about, and if it doesn't go through they aren't left with a bitter player on their list. Carlton need this deal to get done sooner rather than later so they can try deal with GWS to keep their pick 5.
