Re: Retirements, Trades, Delistings and the Rookie list

Ok, enough of the "poor is me" attitude. We can only control the controllables.
Who do we pick with 5 & 6? Toumpas and Gartlett? Is Menzel worth the risk at 6?

Well said Desi.

Quite simply we didn't suck enough to get Martin.
That 's the system we're in.Obviously GC and Clayton had a thing for young Jack and hence why we offered two picks.Be interesting if Melbourne are competing withGC at the top end that Clayton looks clever. Surprised he blinked to be honest

We should offload Lake secure Brown and maybe get 3 1st round picks! I think he is worth 2nd round at best and we could get Hawthorns first round pick for Lake.

Thoughts ?

I don't rate Brown at all.......but that's just me.

Okay...I'll HTFU

Not sure about Menzel. Massive risk and could end up like the current day Cooney. I'd prefer we went a little safer.

Not interested in going safe look at J Selwood if Menzel is the best I say do it !!!!!

Agree on Brown. He can't get on the park either

I feel better with the "poor is me" attitude .... especially after the crap that has been dished ourt way by the AFL.

Seeing the dream run that Melbourne has had today, it makes me even shittier that they received 2 compensation picks for Scully when we only received 1 compensation pick for Ward who was GWS capatain and won their B&F.

Re: Retirements, Trades, Delistings and the Rookie list

If there's speculation that we are interested in Dawes for our second rounder (#27?), I wonder if his old coach might be interested in him too?

Carlton could get Lake and Dawes for their pick 11:

We pay a chunk of Lake's wage and give our pick #27.

Pick #27 ontraded to the Pies for Dawes.

Carlton get Lake and Dawes.

We get pick #11.

Thoughts?

Imagine being an Adelaide supporter. They've been pretty well shafted by the new clubs and free agency.

Still haven't learnt all the FA rules, so after 5pm today Minson is essentially ours next year unless he goes in the PSD?

I can't imagine myself being a cross between a Conehead and Cyclops.
