Struck out two years in a row now. Which free agent/s do they chase in 2018? Sloane? Lynch?

Kent Kingsley.

[Mikka84]

Sloane/Kelly 2019

The Pony will either be a crow for life or gone end of this year..

Kelly 2019. Although have a look at the contract expiry's in 2019 at GWS. Incredible amount of stars come out of contract and are RFA in 2019.

GWS have a mountain of work to achieve to keep them all..

Our 2019 Trade and Free Agency Thread is going to be huge!

Our 2019 Trade and Free Agency Thread is going to be huge!

It will go something like we are getting Sloan, Kelly and Gaff and end up with none of them but taking Tippet and Tyrone Vickery in the delisted free agency window. All the conjecture will take 900 pages of ITK speculation, and a roller coaster emotions along the way, but we will all pretend to be happy with how it all turned out anyway. Then we will argue about the next wave of draftees that weren't the ones anyone wanted but we will love them anyway. I've been doing this a long time, never gets boring. Little glimmers of hope are like fools-gold to a prospector and you keep coming back for more.

2 of the "big 3" free agents this year are at Clubs closer to a flag than us. The other chose to stay on the other side of the country.

Also when that statement was made we didnt know the AFL were about to jag up the TPP by 20%, thus making it much easier to re-sign players.

As happens soooo often with us, the planets just didnt align.

Your spot on there saint66au......but the law of averages say the planets will align for us at some point of time........we just don't know when they will.

But look out when they do !!!!!!

We are like that interstellar comet discovered in the last few weeks ... always on a trajectory that will never align with the only star that matters.

Sensational graphics there Fijian.....I felt like I was watching a Star Trek episode when I laid eyes on the graphic.

 

[Saint Watto]

We're like the Robinson Family in "Lost in Space"...where's Alpha Centauri ?????

Hope is always dashed....lol.

 

[George]

Really positive last few pages, love the optimism.

Now I know what he was talking about. I knew the name but couldn't work out why.

I was very young at the time, but i knew enough about space to know Alpha was the closest star to earth. So i really couldn't figure how they got lost on the way.

There aren't too many trees blocking the view in space either. They must have been idiots. They built a giant robot vacuum cleaner but couldn't make an auto pilot set up.

He had a great name... Robot. Should have called him Dyson.

Anyone else remember the episode where the robot got drunk? And how did he climb stairs.

Yes we'd be like that episode where they return to Earth but it's 1966

Exactly how the Dalek’s invasion plan was foiled: stairs.......

Sounds quite plausible that something with a barrel for a gut could ingest alcohol. I don't know if I ever actually watched it, but have seen clips of it. There was a really campy guy is all I remember. I was more Monkey and Goodies era.

I watched enough episodes to know they were idiots.
