interested in the cat perspective on this one. i know its too early to tell but who do you reckon will be the winner out of geel, rich and the dees in the great ottens caper during trade week. i know very little about maloney but there seems to be a few down at the cattery that are not happy about him leaving. i think you guys might have made a boo-boo going so hard for rottens.

Okay.
Ottens > Ben Holland
"2 weeks" Foster > Ben Holland
Jeff Smith > Ben Holland


BTW,its MOLONEY,not Maloney.
Bloody thickheads that can't get a simple name right.
 
Geelong Needed To Fill Their Weekest Link, The Forward Line. To This We Had To Sacrifice A Young Up And Comer To Win The Flag. We Got Rid Of Moloney And Filled The Forward Line Malfunction. ;)

:D

We traded our 4th or 5th choice young midfielder and got a 24yo 202cm bloke with great hands and a superb kick.

Safe to say our club is happy.

Ling,Kelly,Bartel,Corey,Ablett and then it probably would've been Tweek [only refering to 24 yo or under ].

I'd say we can survive that deal.
 
It's shaping up as a win-win. Moloney, good player as he is, was always just that little bit further behind at Geelong, probably only because he was drafted at least a year after everyone else mentioned already.

Ottens, if he plays anyway near his potential, and with good delivery, why shouldn't he, will be fill a gap that needed filling. So geelong has got of someone who is excess for a type of a player who we lacked.

Melbourne would be more than happy to get a young ready-made midfielder who would step straight into the starting 22, as opposed to a draft pick who may or may not make it.

Of course, if injuries occur, and that's more likely to happen to Ottens, than Moloney, then it skews things, but you that's the risk you need to take.

I was moreso thinking of guys a year below Ling (seem to think he's older than he is).
I'd have ranked them (in terms of value to the club):

Ablett
Bartel
Kelly
Corey
Tenace
Moloney

If you think I am happy about Holland then you are very much mistaken. He is the most useless piece of deadwood that has ever taken the footy field. Yeah we blew it big time on that one. don't sob if you get ripped off with ottens by the tiges as well. Him and the tree stump both learnt their afl footy at the same club. Oh btw if i'm a thickhead then you can't comprehend what your reading as I did state that I didn't know much about MALONEY.LOL. :p

The why ask the question?

i know very little about maloney but there seems to be a few down at the cattery that are not happy about him leaving. i think you guys might have made a boo-boo going so hard for rottens.

If you know so little about Beemer, then how can you say we've stuffed up giving him up and going after Ottens?

For the record, I am ecstatic about getting Brad and 2005 can't come quick enough. I haven't felt this much anticipation about a season in years.

Koula was a top 15 pick by Port Adelaide who have proven their art in the draft. I believe he will have gained alot of confidence from this year, after this coming pre-season, watch out! :D
