One of my favourite threads each year, it can be between any clubs but it needs to be dumb. And it's started early, some sports website I came across (www.sportingnews.com) has a 'damn obvious', 'very sane' & 'very, very real possibility' trade of Michael Hurley for Tom Boyd. Losing Tom Boyd removes a 'headache' for the dogs and allows Roughead to develop as a roving ruckman...

Looking through the other stories i found this from last night's match report:
By Jack Fitzgerald
Published on Aug. 6, 2016
After Easton Wood's set shot fell into North Melbourne hands, a late Ayce Cordy hit on marker Trent Dumont enraged North Melbourne defenders, who flocked from all angles to rough up the Bulldogs ruckman.

Did Ayce jump the fence and thump Dumont?They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them. -

Nice of him to be our hitman considering he was playing against Footscray today.[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]Comment

The second hitter theory? Dumonts head goes back and to left, back and to the left, but Zaine was to the side. Back and to left. So there must have been a second hitter, coming from isle 35.

Sportingnews essentially provides a summation of the day's posting on Big Footy; the writing never goes any further than a topic sentence, and is never justified beyond "the word around the place is".- I'm a visionary - Only here to confirm my biases -Comment

Re: Dumbest Trade Rumours 2016
The byline says Jack Fitzpatrick but given he is a listed player at Hawthorn it might be a false name.
Damien Barrett rang and said Tom Boyd was there too in a rage about something somebody said about his contract and may have been the mystery hitter. And that none of it would have happened if everyone wasn't so distracted by how much Tom Boyd gets payed.They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.Comment

Nathan Brown reported this on 3AW last night too.

Re: Dumbest Trade Rumours 2016
Blame Tom boyds contract for everything seems to be the fall back, all the injuries we have and the reason the urinal was broken are all tied to the size of his contract.Bring back the biffComment
