yes and i feel didak is consistently better than dal santo, or at the very least more interested.Spinner wrote:No way.....
I love how posters talk about consistency issues in relation to Dal Santo.....But not in the same breathe as Didak.
Do we actually watch other games of football regularly?

Didak is exactly the type of player we need for mine and is just stupid more than anything.
However I wouldn't give up Dal for him, lazy as he seems he is one of about three blokes (one of whom is retiring) on our entire list who can reliably hit a target by foot. Would consider a trade for Joey perhaps..

didak, flashy forward who plays a couple of quarters a year.
a slightly improved version of Milne
Dal Santo = capable of being a dominant midfielder, atm currently playing as 20 plus possession a game, 3 tackle per game very good midfielder.
Dal Santo is so far ahead of Didak that im sure collingwood would throw in a draft pick as well to be rid of Didak and get a quality midfielder.

Bewaire krime, da krimson bolt is comeing to yure nayborhood to smach krime
SHUT UP KRIME!
SHUT UP KRIME!
Dan, keep an eye on the Pies B&F and see if you come to the same conclusion, he has had plenty of time in the midfeild this year and been more than a CAPABLE Dal Santo
People are in love with our players and I understand that but you need to get results and this playing lists results are far from what is acceptable.
People have a go because you want to see a good result for the club, I cant see why we would want to hold onto Dal Santo, Didak is a better option can play forward and go into the midfield if needed.
How many times have we said I wish our midfeild would kick more goals and here is a player that has ALL what we need.
Been dropped for being an idiot SO WHAT, the bloke got caught in a car with his pissed mate, not really a reason to hang the bloke, and the Pies are that shyte at handling there players that they feel they are better off lying about it
and before anyone says anything about Didaks record we have certain players on our list with past history before they got to us and we all jump up and down when we get them so why a change of heart when it comes to Didak, the bloke is a gun footballer lets not kid ourselves on that one.
Dal Santo would not be missed at our club if we traded him, the bloke got dropped this year as a warning but people forgett to mention that, and now even the coach has to come up with excuses to cover his arse for playing him
In a heart beat I would do it, we need a change and I think it will happen so Dal is one I would love to trade to see what we could get in return and if Didak was at the right price and we could IMPROVE our list by trading then definatley YES if not then wew keep Dal and go another direction.
The coach says there are untradable players and everyone gets the heart strings out and says good one Ross, I say that if a coach says they are untradable he is thinking about them already, a bit like the board supports the coach with a knife in the hand ready to go.
Make the hard calls Ross and get this list going again, I would rather finish last next year than become the new Richmond happy with 9th position topping up on false dreams year in year out.

The very thought of trading Dal for Didak is just another case of FFD (Fantasy Football Delusion)
No objective assessment of the strengths and weaknesses of our list would conclude that we would need to gain another crumbing forward and lose a creative midfielder!!
Sure, Didak spends part of most games in the midfielder. This does not mean that he comes within cooee of being able to play the role commanded by Dal when Dal is fit and in form.
And Milne is going ok ATM IMO. Didak is better, but not hugely so. But I suspect he would take up a fair bit more roon in our salary cap
Of course, on top of this,
Didak is unstable and liable to embarass the club regularly (although perhaps no more so than some of our on-field efforts lately)
But I would guess that Didak has scored far more points this year than Dal in various fantasy leagues. And I suspect that this is only thing that matters for some posters on here!!

This "character" bulls#@t gives me the irrits - so you'd keep Dal because his character is supposedly better than Didaks?Behind Play wrote:We all know what Dal can do, we all know what type of person he is. Yes dids is a very good footballer, however at this stage he doesn't tick the second box. Therefore it would be much easier if the club could reignite Dal's passion.
Would u seriously prefer a team of useless show-pony footballers who are supposedly of outstanding "character" or a team of ratbags who actually put in on the footy field?
I know what i'd chose.
For all this crap about their bad culture vs our good culture - they come out on Saturday night, bad culture and all, and make out little choir boys look like passionless flogs.
Some journalist (probably Sheahan) sold this culture crap to the public some time ago and it's bloody embarrassing - i don't need my team to be role models for me - I need them to win friggin games and look like it means something to them.
Didak any day of the week - Dal Santo - Mr. Stupid Footy Show Hat - You're Kidding Me???
PS: If someone can explain to me how going out on the piss 6 nights before a big game is any worse than putting your hand up to play when you are supposedly "sick" I'd really appreciate it. Good on ya Mr. Team man!!
PPS: Was the silly hat actually a medicated silly hat prescribed by his doctor to help with his "tonsilitis"? - It must have been!

That's right trade Dal Santo, we don't need players who can actually hit a target, do we
Great message that sends to several players, including Dal Santo, who stayed for less money, to try and forge a strong team
Poor effort only listing Dal Santo's negatives, and Didaks good points
Go figure

Never would I do that trade

Be careful some might tear up at the thought of being honest, some on here love the Nicky Dal, others have had a gutful of him, I for one am sick and tired of paying my money every year to watch a few blokes go through the motions.The Linton Street Flash wrote:This "character" bulls#@t gives me the irrits - so you'd keep Dal because his character is supposedly better than Didaks?Behind Play wrote:We all know what Dal can do, we all know what type of person he is.

Get rid of Dal while we can before its to late, you dont trade KKP of Kossies ilk and Milney well we have been there and done that we are stuck with him.
Dals performance over the last 2 seasons is about 50% down on what we expect so give me a reason to keep him and I will shut up about it.
We wont miss him at all going on what he is giving us at the minute, make that giving us in general.
I will take a flashy forward that can kick goals over a flashy midfielder that cant get his hands on the pill, cough-cough bloody tonsills

I wouldnt trade the contents of the sweage tanks at Moorabbin for Allan Didak.
He would be cultural cancer and Premership suicide if we recruited that selfish, arrogant piss head to St Kilda.
I would not buy a membership or piece of merchandise that he appears on for the time he is at the club if we recruited him.
BANG BANG

Funny that, because that is how I feel at the moment about some of our great players after performances like last Saturday night and 2 weeks before that when for the first time in a few seasons we have had the chance to put the club in a PERFECT position for a crack at some September actionHurricane wrote:

Yet we still think we are good enough and some players performances like Dals, Milnes and Kossies is good enough.

Why do you think it is going get any better? we are talking seasons on end not just a few games in a row, Give someone else a crack because what we are getting from our group is just crap and cant be justified with excuses from anyone

Didak's stats this year...
402 disposals @ 22.33 a game
102 marks @ 5.67 a game
38 tackles @ 2.11 a game
24 goals (15 points) @ 1.33 a game
Coupled with this he has a rare ability to find teammates from the most difficult positions, has brilliant vision, and can push into the midfield. Purely on footballing terms, you'd have to consider the trade.
Slightly improved version of Milne? Hmm....

Once in a decade player. And people want to trade him.
Doesnt cause any greif on field and thats the problem, who gives a stuff what he does off field, christ he could play dress ups on TV for all I care as long as he is killing it out on the ground, oh hang on theres the problem he is playing dressups and then getting the coach to makeup bullshyte excuses for him when he cant get more than 3 touches in a half of football against a side that has MANY star players missing.St DAC wrote:. Dal is a fine (albeit different styled) player, and causes no off field grief.
Get rid of him, he has had plenty of time to show us what he can do, the thing is we want more time than 4 QTRS a year

I am getting quite a chuckle reading this thread actually.
Oooh Didak's a pisshead, he's a cancer blah blah blah (btw the term 'cancer' should NOT be used when talking about football clubs)
Want to talk about pissheads?
Steve Johnson anyone?
Think he may have won a Norm Smith last year and is the most creative forward in the league.
Geelong didn't want a bar of him at the start of last year. But their "culture" down there and the way they handled him spoke volumes about how players with a bad past can turn it around.
I heard Jimmy Bartel come out and say that Geelong would be keen on Didak at the end of the year if he was tradeable.
If such a dominant team like Geelong is keen, then that says maybe their culture is strong enough to handle someone like Didak. The way people on this forum bang on about our "culture" shouldn't have an issue with it, should they?
Still if we don't want to take a chance then that's fine. We'll just keep embracing our "heroes" who are more than happy to take their pay-cheques and keep producing mediocre performances.
