Oppo Camp Regular Non Eagles Discussion V2

[Carbine Chaos]

Very shrewd by North, I love it.

If you're going to manipulate the list management system, you have to cop these kind of things sweet.

 

[Rowan18]

You're supposed to do it with duds that no-one else wants. What a farce

 

[kane249]

Cunnington, Anderson and Greenwood to provide the older bigger bodies

Simpkin, Powell, Thomas, Phillips with Horne-Francis added in the young guns

Stephenson to provide some run on the outside

Davies-Uniacke still lurking about if he ever comes good

North are putting together a blueprint for a very good midfield mix IMO

And yet i wouldnt even recognise them if they happened to cross me on the street because...NORF

 

[WCErevival]

Wonder if Gils on the blower to GC right now asking them what the f*** is going on.

 

[Bender_]

Pick 1 to Carlton to compensate for Jones
Pick 2 to GC to compensate for Greenwood
Carlton to pick a spud
GC to trade pick 2 and 5 to Hawthorn for some magic beans

I recon its a salary dump .

GC have so many young mids to run through their for there development

Greenwood coming off an ACL and 29 won't be part of any flag tilt

You have older big bodies in swallow , miller , atkins and fiorini

Then Rowell , Anderson and Holland who they will want to pump games into on the inside

They also have a s**t ton of outside mids

Splitting 3 for 7+15 would give them

Mac andrew and Van rooyen

 

[Chris_6678]

Would have been funnier if he requested to go back to the Wildcats.

 

[squashface]

How are GC allowed to keep being so self destructive yet continue to be given concessions and leg ups?

Fold the useless campaigners

 

[WCErevival]

Greenwood coming off an ACL

He only did his MCL.

 

[Ambrose Burnside]

It could be worse for Gold Coast, they could have lost Brander and Ainsworth and Ah Chee in the one offseason.

 

[Truckosaurus]

[insert Suns player here] won't be part of any flag tilt

Edited for honesty

 

[Truckosaurus]

From the club that brought you trading the first round pick they got for being crap as the sweetener in a deal to get rid of a 23 year old former first round draft pick...

Also the club that backed themselves to be better than us heading into 2018.

You campaigners know what happened next...

 

[FKASC]

Imagine supporting a team that did both of these things in one off season.

 

[MrWoollie]

GC - it's like us delisting Yeo with a promise to pick him up with our pick 65 on the same deal, and then hoping no-one grabs him either before the draft or before pick 65. Someone would take him or sign him. Pretty stupid move GC.

To be honest I was expecting someone to gazump GC in the draft and take him late 2nd or 3rd round. Norf even beat that. Well done them, it's given me a good Monday laugh.

The only question is, do they get a compo pick? For a 30ish year old not in the top 10% of earners, is he worth an end of 1st rounder? Or, because it's Charity Coast, do they get a pick 1 compo because that's what the AFL do?

Yep - not bad.

I think they have majorly stuffed up with their lack of KPP. Given they take years to develop, I could see them rebuilding for another 5 years

No compo picks for delisted free agents.

Aged like milk

 

[ashley12]

I work with a few sports fans who don't follow AFL and it's hard to explain exactly how stupid GC are here in the context of other sports.

"Oh the Bucks just delisted Giannis for a few days for rule purposes despite the fact he has years on his contract... next minute he plays for the Knicks".

 

[Truckosaurus]

If Gold Coast are overpaying their players to keep even the average ones from being poached so hugely that they need to salary dump multiple players at the end of another failure of a season the AFL should just concede defeat and give the licence to Tasmania.

 

[southcoast]

Good on Norfs - if clubs, in this case GC, mismanage list management by manipulating players and their contracts then they deserve to lose that player.

 

[ashley12]

I'd like to think no one would ever fall for the Snake "Wallet Inspector" bit from the Simpsons but I'm sure GC would.

Gold Coast need to be sanctioned for bringing the game into disrepute.
