A.F.L. Thread II

[benchmark00]

Devastating if Aaron Edwards goes to Richmond. One of my favourites.

 

[Jono]

Awesome, feel like we need more tatts in our team.

 

[Jono]

North and Blues were very interested in Rodan, but Melb got him.

Neeld a fan of recycling it seems.

 

[benchmark00]

Ridonculous.

Melbs either offered him considerably more money than any of the others, or they offered him a gauranteed starting spot.

 

[Jono]

Chalk up another Samoan tattoo to Tigerland

 

[superkingdave]

Pedo off to play with the kids at the Demons.

At least some action for us on the last day

 

[Jono]

That's an interesting trade. Both have potential.

Did Pedersen specifically want out?

 

[SirBloody Idiot]

Neeld is crazy.

 

[Jono]

Neeld must seriously not rate Gysberts if firstly, he couldn't break into MELBOURNE's midfield throughout the year. And then he trades him.

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

**** I hate being a Demons fan. I can't even get close to making myself care about footy at this point.

 

[benchmark00]

Pederson is better than Gysberts. You've done better out of that deal.

 

[Jono]

Basically Melbourne traded Brock McClean for Pederson.

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

I wasn't referring specifically to the Gysberts trade, just to the whole last two season in general. We've been treading water for something close to five seasons. It's ridiculous.

 

[vic_orthdox]

I think it's a good thing, you've still invested in some quality youth whilst getting rid of all the guys on the list who don't work hard enough; and bringing in some guys who have either been involved in successful clubs or worked their **** off to get where they are. And David Rodan.

Yeh think he requested a trade, he was gunning it all year in the VFL but didn't get much of a look in, has Petrie, Hansen and Tarrant ahead of him with Black, Daw and Curran looking to go past him.

Played his best football at AFL level as third tall/relief ruck, plays his best football in the VFL as a tall rover. Think he will be a decent player for the Dees.

That's all well and good except that's the second time we've "cleaned out" in the last five years, we always draft like **** and no free agents will ever sign with us. Scully left after two years ffs. wtf is the point, we'll be rebuilding again in two seasons with a different coach.

 

[Jono]

So apparently Aaron Edwards has been caught drunk in a public place and is already being fined by Richmond.

So good

 

[Spikey]

3 days at richmond and he's already turned to heavy drinking

 

[uvelocity]

they should just ban him from playing finals
