Would you do it?
For me, without a doubt.

No friggin' way! Absolutely ZERO! I couldn't care less if Didak was the Judd of the competition! 
(I wish that Dal had his skills though) It's the principal of the matter for me

i'm not sure what good a outside player who averages about 70% possession efficiency is good for?
Way way overrated and actually cannot remember the last time he put 2 games together?
Dal Santo is a non need to the list, and Didak would be automatically into our best 5 players.
And i'm sure the he's been sick argument will coem up, but was he any better than this before he was sick? No, i do not think so.
I hate the argument that "One player wil effect our culture."
Change is good..
Barry Hall had change and he is our a premiership player and is one of the premier forwards.
Martin Pike @ the Lions was an important player for the 3-peat.
Don't get me wrong, I Like Dal probably one of my favourite players and he is not the oly reason we are losing, but we simply don't need him, no longer important to our team.
Don't take this as a Dal bashing thread...which i'm sure it will be interpreted as.

After all the effort to try and weed out the garbage and change the culture of the club and we'd invite WHO to come in??? I really would be mega p!ssed if the club even remotely thought about it! In fact I'd go to the extent where they could forget having a membership signed up from me whilst ever he stunk out our club!

didak has not even technically broken the law...
he didnt drive a car pissed, he again wasn't driving when he was with the killer and despite being a stupid thing to do i am sure he wouldnt have done it should he know the consequences.
we picked up gardiner whos track record is much worse.

FFS Didak was on the piss 6 days before a crucial game. That is why he should not be picked up!!fonz_#15 wrote:didak has not even technically broken the law...

He is bad news and his attitude stinks, the arrogant prick.

if it is a form slump, i can tolerate it but with dal it is attitude. he has been bad for a lot longer than a few games this season.marksnsparks wrote:I'll admit he's had some quiet games this season but you don't trade someone just because of a form slump.
He's a champ and he'll be back. You don't get to play as many consecutive games as he did by being a s*** player.

I'm sorry, but i don't see why people would not do this, the only reason i can think of is because Didak is in the news a bit?
But - look at Barry Hall, look at Plugger look at Martin Pike.
Change is good..
f*** even look a MG.
When people know they are on their last chance, they improve.
If Dal Santo got injured, he would not make our midfield any worse. I mean, we would not miss him.
Simple as that, he adds nothing to our team anymore, with no genuine tag on saturday night he stunk up the joint.
3 touches to half time..
And then in the last quarter he decides to try, dive on to balls and work.
Simply not enough to do this, and i'm not sure if Dal Santo's influence is any better than what Didaks would be. Didak will give you an honest performance every week and will give you all he has to give, every week.
For an outside player Dal Santo is not
I would do one of those lists for Didak but im afraid that in every single area he outweighs Dal Santo.
Without thinking twice, i would do this trade.

- Quick Enough
Doesn't kick enough goals
Doesn't use the ball well enough (His Disposal Efficiency is below the AFL Average.

39 games into his form slump and it doesn't look like stopping any time soon.
