Recommitted Rowan Marshall [OOC 2027] - Requested Trade to Geelong, didn't get done

[billings2paddy]

yes and the $1.7m/year ruckman you fought so hard for will just sit in the forward line dropping marks or putting knees into Kings back

don't quote this post when TDK takes mark of the year or kicks 50 goals a ruckman though

my heart cannot take it

Cry harder

Mate you've made it an absolute certainty now. Thank you!

he was a handy VFL player for a couple of years there, provided good mentorship to Hudson "THE BIG SHOW" O'Keefe

Will be interesting to see if he can stand up in a bad team, can't wait for Reidy to drop 60 hitouts on him

Reidy will be solid in the vfl

We've been giving him human growth hormone since he got to the blues, he will be over 240cm by season start

Wrong thread mate
You need to go on the tdk and jsos threads to air your grievances

 

[VDS66]

he's not an animal you can't just force him into a circus ring and make him juggle

If we wanted to do that, we'd trade him to Carlton. He'd thrive under Ringmaster Vossy.

Pick 9 would get it done.

Get your people to talk to our people...

"Barring a HUGE late move!!" = "Barring a steak knives change that's being deliberately held off for the 7pm drama...."

If I didn't know any better I'd think all these highly paid player and list managers were totally incompetent at their jobs since almost nobody of note has been traded yet. Petracca, Curnow, Merrett, Simpkin, Oliver, Ah Chee and Marshall are amazingly all still 'in limbo'. Of course, not all of them are being traded (and maybe Marshall's one of those not being traded) but most of them will be. The whole trade period is completely staged by the AFL now for television though.

 

[MisterMarcus]

I could see that happening.

Do you know if that's been discussed by Geelong as an option?

Most Cats fans say we'd be happy with that, and it probably ends up being the deal.

A compromise between Pick 19 (us) and F1 (your) offers.

And I imagine this has been agreed but is being held over for the drama this evening.

 

[projectv]

Why are we expected to field a revised offer?

 

[Tasmanian saint]

Like what? Which trades in particular? (An out of contract Smith off an ACL for a first rounder was a touch unders at the time but worse in hindsight)

Interested to hear which trades you think Geelong were pricks on.

I thought you got Cameron for a very good deal it sounded like you paid a bit on paper but you really didn’t when looking at the time probably the best key forward in the comp your first rounders were later picks and and you got second round picks back is was unders for me , and you just tried to do the same thing Charlie

Maybe. I think we're holding out for you guys to give us your F1.

Expect once Curnow to the Swans ends up happening then Marshall will get done soon after.

MackAttack doesn't go to work until 7pm deadline day. Give him time.

Correct. The clubs were notified last week by the AFL and told to hold off on deals until late Wednesday. Specifically, deals that were not finalised by Friday were to be held off.

This is stage managed to within an inch of its life. The AFL (as usual) is treating us all as idiots of the highest order.

This plays into radio and TV coverage that the AFL then uses when it negotiates broadcast rights. All about the dollars!

Sorry, should've said 7:21pm deadline day. Sleep well, MackAttack.

Ceglar & Ollie don't really count. King Mack waits until 7:29:25 to get the real stuff done

 

[Bostonian]

Not sure about that. I think we are serious about keeping him unless you guys pony up.

They only do sheep and cattle farms. Not pony farms.

 

[Interdimensional Bigfoot]

I'm happy to pay overs, we really need a ruck. Just get it done please.

 

[CatToTheFuture]

We will just have him play ruck

TDK in the 2s already?

 

[FreeAgent1]

This is in doubt now surely

 

[CatToTheFuture]

I'm sure they have internally but not to saints. They'll drop it 5 minutes to deadline

Why doesn’t Mackie just pay up?

Even just giving them the future first is fine im sure

Is it 5 minutes to deadline?
