I'd hardly be able to contain myself if we got Parker, but if I were the swans, we'd need to offer up two first rounders plus a decent player before we'd even start talking...
If we knew we were even a slight chance of getting Parker,There was no way we would have given up that future 2nd rnd pick(2016) which means we can't use the 2016 1st rnd pick which we would need for Parker.

Which is what i was getting at, there is no realistic scenario were we can get him, unless we trade out one of our big five. Which would be utterly pointless.

Don't click it!!!!
That's one thread that you don't go near.
Lunatic asylum stuff where people think they are recruiters and it's real.
It's like a virtual reality over there, where the footy players all have different names that I don't know and the Rioli's have different first names.

Thought you guys were meant to be a good team. Yarran is the bloke you get as the last piece of the puzzle, he won't win his own ball, but when he's got it there's no one better, his a first class downhill skier and they are very useful and damaging in the right environment.

We've been poor for a while so you won't see his worth, but if you guys think you are ready to compete and have a good enough list to compensate for his defincientcies then you'll be rewarded by his offensive line breaking.

We have already dealt with 4 clubs this offseason, I don't think we are the ones being unreasonable.
demanding 12 is unreasonable. everyone knows it. Even Chris Pelham said on radio this morning it was. We have gone out of our way to get you guys 19. take it and be happy you're getting rid of a bloke who doesn't want to be there and you're getting a pick under 20.

What about poor Brisbane - they are getting shafted on Aish - 2 x 2nd round picks for a top young kid. But they'll have to do it cause he doesn't want to be there.

Perhaps this is why the clubs were discussing future picks yesterday. If we get Carlton's 2016 second round pick then we should be allowed to use are 2016 1st round selection
