Think Pluggs has the s***s up after his and Bigmarts love child got traded. The footy club did not rate their opinions either..

No the premiership team did. The team that has also got Gibson, Lake, Burgoyne and Gunston in the last few years. And yes Im upset Ben has gone because I rated him but unlike some I hope pick 18 and savage end up better for us than McEvoy would have.

I'm not sure that is perfect logic. Just because they did some good trades doesn't mean they don't make mistakes. Big Mac is at least going to get on the park something they don't seem to be able to find in ruck men. I had started to lose patience with the big guy towards the end. His only really strong position was as a chop out across half back but he was immobile and slow if he didn't mark the ball.

The Hawks might be able to reinvent his game but we weren't getting good value from him in 2013. They are mortgaging the future on another reload but at least he is still young enough to improve dramatically. Hope he steps up because he seems a good guy.

Maybe we would of been thought of the same way in 2009, if not for straight kicking...
Dawson, Gardiner, King, Schneider, Dempster, Gram, Ray & even Milne...
It happens with more teams than you think....

Its just as much logic as someone saying ive got the s***s because a love child got traded. matter of fact its much more logical. And who said they dont make mistakes. I pointed out that the premiership side rates him. It is very logical.

He was our number one ruckman in every game we played this year. Fact. You obviously have no idea between opinion and fact. I shouldnt have a go at you though because you really dont get it. By the way who are our champions we have gotten rid of? Wrong opinion. Now that is a strange thing to say. I think its time for bed. You have to get up for school tomorrow.
Haha stop shaking old man it's okay.. Get used to it players are going to leave more often.. Welcome to 2013

Stop shaking old man. What the hell does that even mean? Im sure you havent got a clue. As for your second statement that means even less in context to the discussion. Bed time little fella. Who are our champions we are getting rid of? We only have 2 in our side and they are both there next year.

I don't know whats the obsession with getting rid of Dal for a 20ish pick? That's a terrible idea.

Fisher for Bruce seems ok, and probably a trade of a pick/downgrade I guess, unless we put in another player?

I saw on the news our Pick 23 will be exchanged for Hawthorns Pick 20, not sure what's that about?

I've forgotten more about the game then you know and you continually show me that with the dribble you constantly post. You don't even remember half the crap you write.. You get worked up when someone challenges you.. Loser

Personally I've always rated Fisher as a better player than Dal Santo. He's been a favourite for years.
I can switch off the emotion and see the logic though

Bizarre.
So giles and macca are pretty much the same.
So after a few swings and roundabouts we lose macca and fisher and get giles savage and bruce and a better draft pick.
So we still keep pick 3 and 18 ?
Am i missing something ?

Out : Macca fisher pick 21
In: Bruce Savage Giles pick 18

If Pelchen pulls that off he truly is a genius.

What made you suggest pick 17? Just your personal opinion? Cos personally I don't love it.

Would prefer to rookie a ruckman and put him in a glass case to smash in case of emergency to be honest.

I could throw a blanket over picks 8-20, therefore, lets take them to the draft unless we are upgrading, or unless someone crazy good comes up in discussion, of which, I haven't seen us linked to yet.

Imagine Aish/Kelly, Acres and Dumont - or Sheed, what if Crouch slid? Maybe the Pelch WAS after 4 first rounders this year after all :wink:

Can we get Bruce in the PSD and keep our picks?

Can't see why we'd do a number on GWS to be honest, we have a decent history with them and they will never deal with us when they decide one of Boyd or Patton has to be traded in 2015 :wink:

I hope not. We are setting ourselves up for the future and not next year.

We sacrificed Ben for a long terms rebuild. Basically swapping Ben for Giles would be going sideways, and not upwards in the future.
