Draft Developments:

If you use common sense for a minute, we know that if Adelaide keep pick 8, they'll pick a gun player from over there ie. Monfries, Grundy, Eckermann? and if Carlton keep their pick will draft Deluca's brother.

I didnt suggest this, so I dont need to use common sense, thats just whst the so called experts suggest. So whats to say they wont go at 5,6,10,11?
 
Blues will end up with Ottens by trading their first pick plus StKilda's first pick obtained from trading Whitnall

you agree redford.your the bloody one responsible!

I warned you about this!

;)

How so Bevo-nator ? Is this because of my hatred for the big soft Donut ?

Oh well. I know you are crushed by all of this because you so desparetely wanted him to be captain next year, and on a 8 year contract, but really Bevo.....he's gone my friend....he's gooooooone !

(Well, I hope he is......heh heh heh heh...)
 
I'd like the Carlton deal to come thrrough.... Imagine bagging Lewis at No. 9...Forget about getting a Ruckman, let's get another running gun....
 
Guys you cant build your team in one year,we will get a ruck but i hope they dont give freo pick 20 u still can get good players at 20 and get Simmonds through the psd,who else could we get Pat Bowden is he worth pick 20,our first pick last year was around 20 and Cogs was pick 20 something so lets keep our picks and trade later pick for whoever they are chasing, cant be a big name we dont have the money after Simmonds deal.
 
I don't mind at all if Ottens is gone if it brings benefit to the club Redford.If we get a pick like 16 and a a Lewis I can stomach it.

However because we're losing Ottens we've gone out and promised a guy who's not as good, Simmonds a 5 year contract.Ottens would've probably been happy with a 3 year one.
We have to give out pick 20 for him and recieve pick 16 ,4 spots better.Woopy doo

We use the other pick on a speculative ruckman.

It seems a little illogical to me.
 
What would he be sooking about TF? Didn't they get Carr who they wanted?

Come off it Devo ! Haven't you been following things ? "Stomach it" ??

That weak pr#ck has shown the colours I've always said he's had. He's running out on us after saying he owed us, seeking more money etc. etc. and yet your continuing to support his place at Richmond ? Geez Devo.

Fair dinkum Devo, we can have fun speculating and getting all eager about what we should get in return for him, but quite frankly, the guy is a confirmed pea heart such that in all honesty I'd get rid of him for absolutely nothing.

He's a cancer. Sure, get the best deal possible, but get rid of him no matter what.
 
Oh ok.  Didn't think about him.  I was just thinking they were lucky they've got the player they wanted.
The two trades I know of, Thompson and Carr, seem to have come at a high cost as far as draft picks go.
I hope we get as good for Otto.
 
Yeah he has shown himself to be a bit of a prick I agree and I wont be sorry to see him go after whats he's been doing lately but while we talking about following things I don't suppose you've noticed that we've offered Simminds a 5year contract

Ottens may be a softy but he's alot better player than Simmonds and we've ended up giving him what we said Ottens couldn't have.

Your one of the ones who bleating loudest about Gaspar and his fat long term contract.Well now we've offered another 1 as result of getting rid of Ottens.
 
Clubs are certainly paying over the odds (kanagas, freo duds again!), if it is millers time to shine why can't we?

Hutchy reported Moloney and 16 is on the table and that cats and tiges are meetibg again tonight.

What bunber is moloney and is he any good?
 
why is everyone on here panicking about the ottens deal? i'll tell you one person who must be panicking by now? and that's brad ottens himself. if geelong offer us pick 12 & 16 he must be thinking he's not going to geelong right now.

despite hoping the trade would be done earlier, i now hope miller holds out til 2pm just for fun! but a deal will be done.

Picks 12 & 16 are fine but apparently we have knocked that back.Miller better deliver.

yes good point ian. Otto has said no to kangas and yes only to swans and cats. yet if he goes into PSD could end up anywhere.

hawks or dogs should offer something to RFC for him and tell Otto they'll get him in PSD anyway if he doesn't agree
