    Re: Proactive Poaching

    Who is Jordan Peterson? The only one I know of is a bit of a wanker and I'm pretty sure that we aren't talking about him. He writes about politics and religion.
    They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

      Yep. I'm tipping that's the one.

            Nothing specifically, but if Nicnat takes up JBP’s all-meat diet then he might die while he’s under contract.

              That only makes up for Louis Theroux's man love for us.

                If he goes to the Suns instead of us I'll spew up. Why aren't we in his ear?

                Though the AFEL will probably chip in to make sure it happens.

                    Do you think we would want him for purely off-field, or look to give him a year or Rookie him maybe?

                      Sounds like he's going to GCS. But to the question, off field. He was cooked as a footballer last year.

                        Re: Proactive Poaching

                        Reilly O'Brien is out of contract at Adelaide; I mentioned him as a player we should have targeted last year and he's played some excellent football having been given the chance with Sauce Jacob's injury. He's probably the most "ruckman" of all the ruckmen in the league at doing stuff like missing the ball with his foot or forgetting how to handball or whatever, but he's also a mammoth in ruck contests and the best long-distance runner over 200cm in the comp. Your faith in English as a long-term ruck solution may vary your opinion, but I think we can easily play them both and having O'Brien would make us a far better side right now.

                        Adelaide are good to deal with in the sense that they throw temper tantrums if anyone decides to leave the cult, and I'm also really interested in Keath. Any way we could get them both?

                          Just watching a bit of North vs GWS - should we consider putting a bit of money in front of Sam Durdin? Good age, good size and could potentially help our defensive stocks.

                          Note - this is the first time I have seen him play for a couple of years so I don't really know how he is going, but he is doing a good job today and I haven't heard his name mentioned.

                            Port have dropped Paddy Ryder, which is astonishing and to me indicates that he won’t be re-signing. He’s definitely someone we should strongly consider.

                              His injury struggles and now form might be a concern.

                                Depends on the price i guess. He has had a wretched run with injuries and seems to have fallen off a cliff. I think they have tried to bring him back too quickly out of desperation a few times and I wonder if he is now paying the price.
