My record keeping is terrible. I believe the Gosh Darndest folder is stored between the photos of vegetables that look like rude bits folder and the instruction manual for tha datsun 180B.Is that before or after my Gosh Darndest folder?
no one is taking vb. At 29 with no form he is not worth anything. Martin would be worth more.

Doesn't add up does it.
That's what I thought, doesn't really make sense that he would ask to come to Carlton/Melb/Collingwood. Fingers crossed, as I think he would be a fantastic addition and see him as a similar player to Gaff at this stage of his career.

Pardon the intrusion, but just noticed this thread had gotten active again so I thought I'd share my thoughts compared to the ones that were echoed a year ago. To be honest, most sensible Lions supporters saw this coming once he had postponed contract negotiations, not once, not twice but 3 times. One was last year till the end of last season, the next was to the end of the pre-season, and the most recent one was at the end of the year. Generally, it doesn't take a genius to work it out.
According to Rockliff here, Round 16 is here and we haven't heard anything from him, or his client. Presumanly, the prick Pickering has been trying to gather some interest in Victoria, throwing in names like Carlton and Collingwood to drive the contract offer from the Lions/Crows up.
I've met James, and he's a polite lad, very respectful and nice enough to speak to all his fans and supporters. As I understand it, he is waiting till the end of the season to weigh up his options. In the likelihood of happening, these are the scenarios I see playing out.
Scenario 1: Traded to a Victorian club. He wants the attention and glory of playing for a 'big' club. Being 19-20, I would think the attraction factor of ladies would be much higher in Victoria than Queensland where some people still think Brown and Black are playing. 50%
Scenario 2: Traded to Adelaide. If he was to be traded to any club, I'd hope it's to yours. The lure of coming home, would be a fairy tale coming true. And to be honest, you've lost your fair share of players over the few years, and maybe Dangerfield this year to Geelong or whoever. 45%
Scenario 3: Stay at Lions. IMO, highly highl unlikely unless something extraordinary happens like he finds his future wife, gets married and has a kid and is unwilling to move a young family. It happens ya'know?
Leppa comes out and says this to add some new tension/confusion onto the situation.
I'd presume that after the GH5, the Lions will probably grow some balls during trade week and do something about this, but what they will do, I have no idea. It's getting to the business end of the season, and the drama around this will get more interesting. If I've said anything wrong, feel free to correct me, and I'd be interested to know your thoughts on possbile trade scenarios.
I can.
Yes it does, when they've played him he's been very ordinary. I hope we're chasing someone else.
