Trade talk - from August 2024

Do ya reckon we need to rebuild it?

Lol Darling even purple flog is questioning the acquisition of him

Prorbably but wont be happeing anytime soon

And Parker by the sounds of it

North won 3 games with a 63.5% this year where are the wins going to come from to leap frog us?

I give them a win against us but who else

Why not?
There is a very real chance we go backwards in a big way next year.

Next year is another reset. Go to the draft. It runs deep.

Not from what Durham said in his post season review. said after the Brisbane game the players stayed out on the ground,looked at each other saying they dont want this feeling anymore of missing out on playing finals

They ran Collingwood, Dees, and Dogs very closely. They were also good for large periods against other decent teams.

The tides not far from turning with them

I’ll see it when I belive it I expect them to be crap again

Every year we hear this from the players only for them to turn up their toes when it matters. Nothing more than waffle

True but we shall see

We attended the Hawks vs Dogs final though, we mean business now. I think we may be back.

They did the same thing last season too Nino; it’s all words. Talk is cheap…blaming the board, the Hangar, the saga etc. I’ve heard it all!! This is a footy department/ playing group problem to solve and it involves implementing actions and living by the standards you set. We are held back by the fragility of the collective minds in those areas and talking about getting better and playing finals won’t make it a reality sadly.

Larkey kicked 71 and often had 2 or more defenders on him. Darling only has to draw a big defender away from Larkey. He is a decoy only

Fkg concur, I’m happy to sit this trade/FA period out as far as bringing in players.

But I too am hoping we trade off a few players (there are a couple with value that we have in surplus) for draft picks and get some new talent in, and do a proper rebuild, then next year play Bryan/Caddy/Roberts/Tsatas/ElHawli/Reid/Hayes/Kako when fit from round 1.
