No it’s always........RUSEV DAY!!!!!So is today actually Shiel day?
No way- Fevola an absolute talent, once in a generation player who unfortunately had off field issues. PP would have been burnt down if that had happened
same, same
His on field issues of petulance, giving 50 metres away is why trading him , would have been smart move.No way- Fevola an absolute talent, once in a generation player who unfortunately had off field issues. PP would have been burnt down if that had happened
For those who are adamant of keeping pick 1. If you could go back in time to the Judd deal, would you keep Kennedy or Pick 1 (Krueze)?
So what, needed to go to get deal done. He was a problem child. Ideal time to trade. Missed the boat there and lost Kennedy. Greg Swann...idiot...
Not if you saw him break his ankle bad. Looked to me like he was never going to make it back in 2018. Horrid injuryWasn't Scully close to making a return this year?
Too bad. That is what the deal should have been. When push come to shove they would have taken it. We were stupid under Swann to do they way we did it. Trading Kennedy then would be like trading Harry McKay now as steak knifes in a deal to get Shiel. dumb!!!Eagles really wanted kennedy, not so much fevola.
Ha! I immediately thought he meant Brendan too.Phew
It could work something like this..For Mcgovern trade one of our second rounders along with trading one of mature ages to Adelaide.
Future 1st and this year's other second rounder for Shiel and Setterfield. Pick Walsh with pick one.. Thoughts?

He was and then some complications arose from infection.Wasn't Scully close to making a return this year?
3 years maybe. Not that good when we need to be bringing in guys that hopefully will be part of a premiership side going forward. I dont believe he is what we requireHe's reportedly on $500k...pay packets really not that bad.
If I could go back in time I would have kept pick 1 and selected Dangerfield.For those who are adamant of keeping pick 1. If you could go back in time to the Judd deal, would you keep Kennedy or Pick 1 (Krueze)?
and it is this type of thinking that had us lose Kennedy after putting two years into his development. Dumb. Fevola was A grade talent, but he had on field flaws, that were bad for team culture. You had the but around the wrong way....Fev had flaws, but he was A grade talent. Judd wanted him here.
We could get serterfield for a pick approx 20.I’ll confess, I don’t understand this point of view. How is it trading our future away if the trade includes a gun kid in about the same age bracket as Walsh? In terms of our future we’ve really added like for like.
Then we add Shiel and Scully who are both in an age bracket we desperately need. Shiel is quality, would be the second best player in our team instantly and the best mid in a lot of teams. Plus, it’s not like he’s 28-29, he has at least 5 years of quality football.
So even if we don’t win a flag with Shiel, it’s not like we have added quality youth this year. The rebuild continues. Not to mention the fact that we’re still looking at s top 5 pick next year.
It was Judd +46 for Kennedy + pick 4 +20 so your comparison isn’t quite rightFor those who are adamant of keeping pick 1. If you could go back in time to the Judd deal, would you keep Kennedy or Pick 1 (Krueze)?
Pretty sure, the rumour was GWS offered Shiel, Setterfield and Scully for pick 1 this year, no rumour that SOS would entertain the offer....
Correct, Judd stated he was looking forward to having a player like Fev to kick to.When we made our pitch to Shiel yesterday, don’t you think a fair part of it would have been around giving him the chance to play with Cripps, Charlie, and Docherty? It was the same with the Judd trade and giving him the chance to play with Fev. Not only that, but my understanding has always been that Judd declared he wasn’t interested if we didn’t have Fev.
Put it the other way. What do you think our chances of Shiel would be if we told him that the only way we could trade for him would be by way of jettisoning Cripps or Curnow? A graders want to play with A grade talent. Fev had flaws, but he was A grade talent. Judd wanted him here.
