Your heart would sink if?

MIcky being traded won't happen. He signed that 4 year year contract not long ago. But I'd be shattered if Schnieder, Goodes, or Barry were traded.

Well I think you all know you'd be picking up little shattered pieces of me if Tadhg left! You don't invest so much time being a groupie to not feel the pain in the event of a departure - I went through it all with Shannon Grant oh so many years ago!

Other than that, Barry, either of the Adams, either Bolton or Maxfield would upset me the most. But I tend to be rather upset when ANY of the guys leave for whatever reason so I'm getting used to it after 10 years

I don't like this thread at all..emotive purposes.

Anyone apart from Nicks, Warfe and Scott Stevens I would be sad.

But what can you do..this is the way footy has evolved. Move on and hope the player we traded for will shine even brighter than who he replaced.

I was sad when Stafford was traded but in a way we got Barry Hall so the healing process was quicker.

It's still sad to see a long serving swan in other colours besides Red and White.

Everyone wants to trade.....Why???? It may strenthgen our list for 2 years but everyone is forgetting the youth policy that effectively rules us out of any serious trading. The only player coming to Sydney over 27 in the next few years would be Lynchy who is great mates with Roosy, that will never happen though.
All our work will be in the draft periods as Roosy has full faith in our list and only wants to add to it

Who says you have to trade a 21yr old for a 30 year old for instance?

A trade may strenghten us for 10 years - who knows? and if it does only strengthen it for 2, but delivers a premiership, that is good to...(Ala John Barnes, Essendon).

If you have as much faith in Roosy as you seem to, have faith in whatever decision he makes at trade time!

The only player would be a bit upset about would be Tadgh - only because our club is the only reason why he plays AFL, so I would hate him shining for another club.

Generally I don't get attached enough to care if they are traded - if you play for us I like you, if you don't, meh whatever lol.

Historically though, I would say Kelly and Cressa would have hurt me if they had been traded.

Goodes. I'd be furious with the club if they traded him. It took me ages to get over them trading Greg Williams many years ago.

I, too, would be upset if Tadhg left. He's my favourite player, and I think he'd make an incredible captain: he's a talented footballer, he's always giving directives during the game, he's very media friendly and he's awfully eloquent.

I knew he was popular, but had no idea he was quite this popular.

Enough of my treatise on Tadhg.

Goodnight,
Erin

Ditto

Trade-wise probably Mick or O'Keefe. The latter has really found his feet his year and I still think he has room to develop further. Would hate to see him reach his potential at another club.
