Trade

[Tigerbob]

What would you guys give up for Matthew Richardson?

Honestly you would only get him or Ray Hall out of our big men, no chance on Otto, so what would you honestly give up for him?

 

[gerling]

Matt McCarthy, James Rahilly, Brent Grgic, Dan Foster, David Clarke and Mark Thompson.

 

[Unwritten_Law]

Not enough for Richmond to be interested in the deal.

 

[Fall Out Boy]

What he said.

 

[BigCat1]

Richo: Pick 18-20 (2nd rd) + one of Monica, Playfair, Finnin,Rahilly, Clarke

Hall: 4th round + one of the above players

Ottens: Pick 3-4 (1st Rd)+ Bartel or Milburn + one from the above group.

I know you said no Ottens but he would be the one we would desperately want. He can play forward and pinch hit in the ruck. He can take a contested mark and he is a great kick at goal. We would also have the 500K plus required to sign him.

 

[Falconer02]

2nd round and graham for Richo

 

[Seb]

Nothing.

HAHA

I'd give then nothing more then Dash and a 4th round pick, but we all know they'd reject that in a second.

 

[Baldy#9]

Nothing, you can keep him thanks. I'd rather have Grgic and Clarke in the side.

Yep, we wouldn't be prepared to give up enough for Richmond to be interested in the deal in the first place.

Richo for Milburn + 2nd Rounder is probably about fair.

I still rate Richo - I think he'd be the same of 'game-breaker' Geelong needs.

But is his lethargy the sort of thing Mark Thompson can iron out?

When i suggested such, i had a 3rd rounder in mind. Regardless, it won't happen given our 2nd and 3rd picks will be taken by father-son selections.

Spot on. We desperately need a guy who can win a game off his own boot.

No, definitely not.

We've got a stack of players with similar problems to Richo. Thompson hasn't been able to work those guys out.

Peter Street could be worth a 2nd round or 3rd round draft pick to the right club.

VFL Clubs don't have draft picks?

I've seen ruck divisions in the VFL that put St.Kilda's to shame.

The Clarke brothers at Frankston are a class above your lot.

 

[Big Red]

Geez, can you imagine how ****ed off Richo would get with our mid-fielders delivering the ball to him!!

Uh-huh

If we go for a ruckman, we'll go for a Cox or Brogan.

See, i can do those too.

Ask for those two, and you'll get laughed at.

Doubt it.

As #2 ruckman at each club, I'm sure they have their price.

Even a Jeff White wouldn't be too bad.

I'm sure we'll go for a ruckman, certainly one better than Street anyway.

Why change the habits of a lifetime?

The roll of hack ruckman St.Kilda have traded for is ever growing. Knobel, Capuano. Who's next?

Richo would get pretty annoyed, but I don't think we'd stuff around with the ball nearly as much as we do now if we had one or two quality forward options to kick the ball to, so it's hard to judge how we'd play. At the moment, our midfielders have no confidence in the key forwards whatsoever, and therefore try to hold possession by kicking short and stuffing around with handballs.

Cheap shot from a Geelong supporter.

We've already traded for Brooks, why should we trade for more?

Not at all.

There are plenty of clubs that i probably shouldn't rip on, yours certainly isn't one of them.

Our history, for all it's problems, ****s all over yours.

When you've won 1 flag, and have been cellar dwellers for 20 odd years, you need to bend over and take the crap like a good little boy.

Hahahaha.

Well I might as well get stuck into Geelong for everything, but I have slightly more dignity than that

Living in the past. I really, really couldn't give a **** about the past, mostly because I wasn't around to see it.

I only care about the future - I can't change the past.

Didn't know you were that way inclined, but hey, I'm not surprised.

We've won a flag and played in a Grand Final more recently than you have, but as I said, I'm not living in the past

Can't change the future either, by the looks of it (both clubs).

Only indulge when it's St. Kilda supporters. They know the drill, which makes it much easier (and looser).

Oh oh, i've gone too far.

Ah, you must be proud.

One day you might have a strikerate up there with Halley's Comet.
