Why would he mention PSD if he is very confident?


In Springfield, they're eating the dogs. The people that came in, they're eating the cats. They’re eating – they are eating the pets of the people that live there.

I'm hearing reports Longer's manager Connors is saying he will be a Saint and for pick 25 !
Anyone else hear this on radio ?

Couldnt possibly play on the wing. What happens when he is an onballer which most wingmen are these days for most of the game? not good enough below his knees.
He has fantastic straight line pace but I haven't seen any evidence of the agility required to play wing / mid.
He is a forward / ruck and at the moment he is still getting by on potential.
Time will tell.
Wouldn't be as quick as Daingerfield

Not discussed. Sounded as if it would happen.

Looks like Brisbane are still playing hardball with Longer (like GWS are with Bruce) - now they have 2 days to complete about five trades.

(Gubby) Allan says they have put a "very good" offer to Josh Bruce and they want him to stay...

Surely now the shaw deal is done and brisbane have had another door slam shut on getting a polec deal done... we will throw pick 25 in as a 3 way swap and billy is ours?


I bought a shirt from Target once.
It had a hard tag on it too.

I know how Dal feels.

okay...withdraw the offer and then see if the swans are interested in swapping pick 41for everitt who s probably a better player anyway...and he's a saints supporter....

Why would we want Everitt? Where would he play? Let me guess HBF.

i'm serious about trying to get everitt...he was a first round draft pick for the dogs in 2006....11th overall....at 194cm and 91ks he is a mobile tall...capable of playing chf/chb.....as he has done for sydney in a number of games this year......played 50 games before settling down this year as a rgular sweeper across the backline towards the end of the season with near bog's on several occasions....24 years of age ..coming into his prime....

No not really. He's a dog who doesn't really talk much sense.



Whereas the one I'm thinking of is made of plasticine and stars in short quirky British TV shows :wink:

No doubt Andrejs Everitt can play - and at 194cm, with 20 games under his belt in the past season, he's quite appealing if we could snag him with a later pick.

As Ross Lyon would say, he's done his footballing apprenticeship. Then again, he also said that about Dean Polo :oops:


Clueless and mediocre petty tyrant.

Where does he play? He isnt a KPP. he is just another HBF. We need mids.

So the one you're thinking of is basically a wax model of this thing!
