Official 2012 Trade Period Discussion (#2)

[Freddy Bassett]

Breaking news for Cats and North Melbourne fans

Despite media reports that Lachie Hansen is keen to stay at Arden Street, I have just spotted him coming out of Skilled Stadium.

Just saying what I saw boys, wouldn't be saying it if I didn't see him coming out of there.

Cheers

Hamish Mcintosh, Jared Rivers and now Lachie Hanson... What are the Cats thinking?

 

[Mr Mojo Risin]

It's a shame, this post had so much potential.

You are aware intelligence doesn't preclude stupidity?

What an intelligent post.

 

[reincarnated]

Let it go, Essendon....

Before A.Holes starts opening up, I just meant for some reason it's not been put through as a confirmed trade yet. Though Geelong have jumped the gun and had a press conf. (I am going off the trade tracker). It is just an observation...

Hamish Mcintosh, Jared Rivers and now Lachie Hanson... What are the Cats thinking?

They're thinking flag in 2013, clearly ...

 

[The mail man]

Can someone tell me if pederson is contracted for next year?

 

[markm106]

Can someone tell me if pederson is contracted for next year?

Yeah pretty sure contacted for one more year.

contracted for one more year.

 

[longdaveyjetta]

Well Dawes has played his last, that anyone can say with confidence.

Chris Newman springs to mind...

 

[longdaveyjetta]

The billion and one saying we will get him since he went to Geelong?

Show me these posts since the Geelong trade, on our board or anywhere, that say we'll still get him.

It's sad as you come across relatively intelligent. However when it comes to Essendon you are so blind that if Jennifer Hawkins wearing an Essendon top came up to you and offered you sex with no strings attached, you wouldn't be able to see past the Essendon top to know what was being offered.

The chance to Don an Essendon Jumper and run around pretending you are Hirdy or Joe Daniher...

I like the way UTG is still in denial with his Essendon love/hate issues...

 

[Falchoon]

should fit right in then

 

[Jab]

Well played, sir

....uncontracted Port Adelaide youngster Ben Jacobs intends to nominate North Melbourne as his club of choice. Jacobs, a Victorian, has had interest from St Kilda and Essendon, but is expected to tell the club that he would like to be traded to Arden Street.

​

​

SYDNEY forward Jesse White has flown to Adelaide for a medical screening....
After some initial reluctance the Crows decided to take a closer look at White, the Swans' 24-year-old forward whose senior opportunities have been restricted to just a handful of games in the past two seasons.
Industry expectation is that White would likely be packaged with the Swans' first round pick, currently No. 22, should the trade eventuate.

​

 

[King_Tredrea]

White and 22 would be a massive win for the Crows. They'd be getting a player that's Spuds equal AND a nice pick.

 

[Jab]

Yeah, you're right. Port should have tried to get in on that deal and cut the Crows out and show 'em who's boss. They should have offered Sydney Boak, Ebert, Butcher and their first round pick for Jesse White and pick 22. The Crows have robbed Sydney.

/sarcasm

It seems the entire footy world is blind to how ordinary Tippett is. Given the same opportunities, White won't be any worse. They are both equally mediocre.

Another >100 post poster shows up in the trading period with startling revelations.

 

[year of the cat]

Yeh, he's probably no more reliable than someone who has wracked up 4058 posts in 2 months.

 

[Sugar Wolf]

If I was blind I doubt I would notice the Essendon top

Back on topic.

Dons need a ruckman, yeah?

We dont actually need a Ruckman at the moment, especially if David Hille signs back on. What we need to do is consider drafting one for the future. It is disapointing we lost Josh Jenkins to Adelaide as he will become a solid player one day.

From what I know about it, Essendon let him go to Adelaide for next to nothing in order for him to get more immediate game time

All he said was that he saw him at Etihad, is there any need to reply in a condescending manner?

You mean like how they have a source with said that Caddy was going to North, and if you question said source then you are an idiot ???

 

[pantskyle]

Tippett is hugely over rated but is still worth a first rounder.

 

[UpTheGuts]

That's what 22 is...

 

[coryne]

That's what 22 is...

22 + White is less than what Melbourne paid for Dawes, and you are ripping into Melbourne for being bent over by Collingwood .............

I'll get to that.
Dawes was contracted, whereas Tippett is not.
And I think the Crows can afford to take a hit...
Adelaide has been unlucky. Dees just dumb
