No Oppo Supporters Re-signing Tex, Danger and Sloane *** Crows Only ***

[AFC979810]

Would anyone really want him? He's a serviceable midfielder now. Not going to win you games off his own boot. A good, sound player. Interesting to see if he holds out for any offers. Will clubs make a play for him?

That cannot be a serious question?

 

[Wood_Duck]

So we'll lose Dangerfield just before FA gets overhauled in terms of a club's right to trade contracted players but after they do away with free agency compensation!

Father and son will get abolished just in time for us too.

 

[Pugsley]

There is no doubting that.

Sorry. I didn't realise you knew everything. Yes it is a serious question. Rebut it if you wish.

Bacon8, work your magic...

By my count, there's only 10 SA boys (excluding those at Port) who are contracted beyond 2016. (of 112 players/822)

Lycett, Hurn, Dunstan, Vince, Viney, Puopolo, Griffen, Greenwood, B.Grundy, Gibbs.

So, if they aren't listed here, they are OOC by end of 2016.

First round pick, club champion 2010, second in 2013 midfielder who averages just under a goal a game.

To say he would be as highly sort as Danger would be a joke but coming on 28 with three good years left he'd be a very handy FA

Mick Malthouse has said he is a big fan of Dougy and would happily have him at carlton.

Thing is with Dougy he is very replaceable.. Danger isnt.. well not for years.

No need to apologise. I can't rebut a question, but I can answer the question very easily.

Yes. Plenty of other teams would want Richard Douglas. He would start for every single team in the AFL.

Define 'very replaceable'. We are a much better side with Richard Douglas in it.

 

[Pugsley]

This is just silly.

This is just silly.

I read it as "Dougy has a replace-a-ball"

 

[Pugsley]

I got a friend, the poor bloke, lost a testicle due to having testicular cancer. They replaced it with a plastic ball basically.

We started a running joke white ball, corner pocket. When we told his wife she was a fan.

Watch the video.

There's a wonderful "hard-hitting question" by Browny (as stated by the host) to Petrenko about his 2nd chance with the Bombres.

I like the way it is framed on the AFL website:


It's made to look like Dangerfield said the quote, when actually it was Douglas

 

[Legz]

Dangerfield will have the option to exercise unrestricted free agency at the end of 2015, and many believe he will return to his native Victoria, where he has been strongly linked to Geelong.

Stopped reading right there.

If a journalist can't get the simple info right, then I don't trust them to actually know anything of value.

Most of them don't.

This reminds me of a snooker joke about pink, red and brown. That should be enough to remind those who know it for a giggle without upsetting those who don't

Googling gave me some solid chuckles. Note to those at work: best to wait until you're home.

 

[AFC979810]

Bigfella deliberately didn't post the joke.

Ha ha ha. Please tell me someone didn't post the joke! I just googled it and was constantly looking over my shoulder.

 

[GROTTO]

Bigfella deliberately didn't post the joke.

Its all innuendo and I have deleted anything that a kid under 13 could work out. At work its hard for people to check out the joke on google.

EDIT - Allefgib is free to delete the post. I never heard of it before and its not something you should google at work.

 

[GROTTO]

Danoz just told you not to do that!

This article is on the AFL site, its not just here in SA that has incompetent/lazy/useless journalists.
