You like that though, I get it.
Here’s the thing... 15 players have been linked to the Saints so far this off-season. They’re not all coming to us... most wont. That click bait BS posts consist of anything and everything people make up in an attempt to generate interest but its overwhelming BS.
Like articles in the Herald Sun footy pages... designed to make idiots part with their money so that they can feel special and be in the know when in fact they’re just peddling garbage.
A huge number of forumites here are fed up with this style of posting because we see it for what it is... it’s not real discussion. It’s a waste of time.
You obviously like it. You believe it. The majority are educated and see AFL trade news, the Scum, and the Facebook pages for what they are.

Re: Sam Gray from Port
I don't follow AFL trade news, never bought the Herald Sun, never joined Facebook. Read the Age online a bit, at least till the click limit is reached. Watch games live or on TV/online, but no pre game and turn off when the final siren goes. Even have the sound off at times, depending on the commentators. I can form my own opinions without all that verbal garbage. Big Footy? - tried it, too much rubbish and hard to keep track of.skeptic wrote: ↑Wed 04 Sep 2019 9:51pmI just post opinions... don’t need to post fake news to pretend to be something I’m not.

I find SS is a good one stop shop, gives all the news/rumours/fake news re the Saints, and certain posters are very informative re news/rumours, fake or not. I can believe it or ignore it, and whether it has already been in the media or not is irrelevant to me. The posts we are talking about generate a lot of interesting discussion anyway.
SS - the one stop shop - you should try it, and minimise your spam intake to one outlet only.

What trades could St Kilda make?
You can lock Bradley Hill in at the Saints. Unsure what for given St Kilda don’t have lots of draft picks to play with. It might go late.
Am told Sam Gray is a very good chance to get to the Saints. Hill yes, Paddy Ryder probably. Adam Tomlinson is a long-time target for the Saints and Zak Jones’ future is in limbo at the Swans too.

At least with this nic he is reducing his dwell time between Fox sport, the Roar, facebook etc tweets/ posts and when he posts his scoops on here

People don’t like tripe on the forum because it detracts from genuine football discussion. The challenge is that the behaviour is designed primarily to wind up and antagonise forumites... sentiments of which have been expressed by a large number of forumites here.
In that context this behaviour is trolling further evidence by the denials and feigns of ignorance from the forumite in question.
The reality is that the former forumite Ted has a very disruptive presence on this forum and most (IMO) have really enjoyed the respite from that BS.
This place has been very settled over the last month when that person was banned.
Personally, and I don’t think I’m alone here... it would be a shame to have to endure that tripe, carry on and conflict again

As he visited 3 clubs including the Saints this week, this is hardly a surprise that we are still looking at him.
