To tell the truth I didn't know that page existed.
I think that was a Steve Daley special, from back in the day.
177th Senior AFL Match - Round 4, 2009 - Sydney vs Carlton, SCG. This is obviously out of date. I suppose I'll update it once I could be bothered sitting down with the fixture and working it out.... Des' Weblog
Same old Roosey Palaver. Pulled out last year's pre trade week press release from the bottom drawer and put a slightly different spin on it. Reading between the lines it says to me "buggered if I know what to do, our midfield is shizen and there aint any good midfielders around. I will go in with my fingers and toes crossed and hope that we can pull a wabbit out of the hat".
The only bit that had any relevance to me was the bit about freshening up the blue collar midfield. I respectively say, Goodes aside, "what midfield Paul" or was that what you were alluding to. Bird to be picked up with Round 3 pick sounds like he has already been pencilled into Jude's spot. What in the hell is he going to do with all those T-Shirts. The Espanade at St Kilda on a Sundy morning sounds good.
As anyone seen what was written on the bigfooty Carlton board suggesting that Adam Bentick will be traded to the Swans and apparently, it's already a done deal? Apparently, he'll be traded in a straight swap for a Swans player. They didn't name the source, so I'm highly sceptical at this moment.
To be truthful, I don't know much about Adam Bentick.
Sam Power of the Western Bulldogs is available. Outside running midfielder. Tallish and takes a good grab. 24 years of age. Has had some high possession games this season against strong midfields- 26 possessions against Geelong, 21 against the Saints. Possible swap for Vogels or Grundy? Fairly painless trade. I'll save someone the trouble - and of course Bevo (tough defender just what Rockets looking for)

I've said it before (last year, in fact): the Dogs seem to have about 20 players all of the same type (runners who can mark and kick a bit, but are never going to hold down a key position or win too many contested balls). They desperately need players of pretty much any other description. We are in more or less the reverse position. They seem like an ideal club for us to trade with.
Agreed. They could use players like J Bolton, Ablett, Grundy, Vogels, Bevan.
We could do with half their midfield!
Captain Logic is not steering this tugboat.

In fact Jude B. and the Bullies are a good fit. They are very soft in the inside midfield apart from Westie. We in fact may be able to snag two runners for Jude - Power and McMahon. Rocket drafted Jude and always gave him big wraps.

There is only one problem with Sam Power, he is no good.
