Welcome to the Tigers Oleg Markov

Agree but except for Ellis most of that speed was spent in the vfl for the others. We have definitely lost depth and will hurt more if higgins leaves too. But think Markov trade was fine overall for me.
Oleg is an interesting addition to GCS.
First. Closing speed. Is Oleg by far the quickest closer in the AFL? Didn't they clock him at 39.5kmh or something?
Off the mark. Acceleration. 2.87 for 20m at combine. Oleg Markov is the quickest player in the game.
GCS implying they need to get quicker? Oleg Markov makes sense.
Oleg was not a junior footballer. Didn't play much. (See the likeness to Balta at times?) Freak athlete who hasn't learned to use the gifts. To be fair Markov was showing in late 2020 that he had at least begun. And he was successful.
And having established himself in the 18 he was summarily dumped for Iron Balls, who proved the decision probably right.
Mr Damien Hardwick made the choice. Broad over Markov. I think based on strategy. Defence above attack.
And here we are. Oleg is gone.
And RFC will trade Oleg to the club that bids for him. We're all about player welfare.
And we won't snivel about how Oleg Markov owes us something. We gave him short shrift for strategic reasons. We're accountable for that. (We have a premiership to account for.)
He may not be able to change lanes on a football ground but he sure can off it.

Oleg Markov missed the perfect beau (RFC 1s). When courted by a mediocre suitor Oleg did the smart thing.
And wed the deluded buffoon.
For just a chance at happiness and a life of his own.
RFC just lost its best ever nickname. We lost Anna Karenina.

Well said ToOts this has been my argument against Oleg, he just doesn't win the footy enough for a half back.
HBF's are amongst the biggest possession winners in the game, he needs to impact the game more than a few good looking runs up the ground.
I wish hm the best and hope he does well.
It was a future 3rd rounder too. Seems to be a strong belief around recruiting circles at the moment that future picks are going to be worth a bit more than this year's picks.
A fair trade I'd have thought.
Very fond of Markov but Just love "iron balls."Oleg is an interesting addition to GCS.

Remember when he came off with his finger perpendicular at the joint... LAUGHING. One very tough hombre.
I reckon there is a reasonable chance that Oleg will turn into a valuable player for Gold Coast.
But he wasn't a regular for us so a 3rd round pick seems reasonable.
What gets me more is the ridiculous compensation some get - pick 7 for Daniher? Yeah, he can be good . . . if he ever gets on the ground.

Has big potential to hurt the Lions if he can't stay on the park.
