would I derail this thread if I suggested we could swap clint jones for picks 2,3, 11 and 74?

But what if the mods grab it and put it in the draft and wacky list speculation thread.

I had a dog named chester, My wife named it after the Nanny's dog on TV. Fran Drescher was in Saturday Night Fever. They never play any of the Bee Gee's Beatles covers from the soundrack of Sargent Peppers Lonely Heats club band even though it was huge at the time.

I concur with my whatchamacallit Jenkins.

Can we get like, footy 10s or something to be played in the off-season?

IRB Sevens series kicked off last weekend, great time on the Gold Coast. Watched the Melbourne Club Sevens last week, and watching the Melbourne International sevens this weekend. I even came around to the NRL nines last year, albeit it's sevens poor cousin.

Love to see how it would go.

This will go down in history as the worst trade since Barrot / Stewart!

Who's barrot and Stewart?

Love the sevens.

I went and saw 2 days when the commonwealth games were in Melbourne.
The short format is terrific for that sort of event. A whole series and finals in 3 days.

The thing about 7s over normal rugby is that the game play itself is much faster than other forms of rugby.
With footy it would be just some bastardised form of the game. Though I guess flooding would be out of the question so there might be more one on one contests. hmmm

In the history of VFL/ALF trades, (on paper) the Barrott trade is probably the worst one of all time. We swapped the number one footballer in the country (whilst in his prime) for a guy who ended up playing about six games for us then requesting a trade to Carlton.

(For those around during that time and are aware of the rumours floating around, maybe our hands were tied to some extent.)

The trade that killed me as a kid was giving Russell Greene to the Hawks for Mark Scott.
Scott was a handy fwd for a couple of yrs before dropping off badly.
Greene 3 flags, Hawks B&F ( in a super strong side) VFL MVP & Vic Capt.

 

[#gosaintas]

wasn't there a girl behind that trade? An unsavoury incident?
