      Careful about raiding Collingwood !!! - Eddy said he would declare "war" on Freo if they went near Cloke (apparently Freo are said to have offered him $1m py - stating that with the salary cap relief that would give, Collingwood would target every 22 & 23 yo player on there list.

        Eddie Maguire is an arrogant bully with too much money and power.

          Eddie Mcguire talks so much s***. He thinks hes gonna declare war does he? So your gonna declare war on which of our players Mr. Mcguire? Fairly sure you can't just trade players magically, give players more money magically, and take players off teams magically. What an insipid arrogant fool he has made himself since his fat head exploded when collingscum won the grand final.

            He was an insipid arrogant fool (among other things) well before they won the flag.

            Maybe worse, in many ways. His failure as Ch9 boss probably helped pull his head in a little, but it's well and truly reared back out now.

              My favourite piece of TV footage (after Leo's mark) is of a young Plugger throwing his crutch at Eddie when he was a cub reporter.

                Picking the right one needs to be based on more than talent. Talented - all four. No Dickhead? Wants to come to Sydney? No brainer - Ben Reid!

                  If it was going to happen Ben Reid would be the player I would pick - who and what we give up would be the tougher question - given we rarely do well with our first round picks that would be a no brainer - might well be two picks as I don't think we have a player that realistically we would want to give up that would improve their list - so hopefully picks will do

                    Trading Rhys back now he has a beard might work. They might not recognise him.

                    Probably second round pick would do for Reid. Remind them of Wolly trade . I mean Jolly.

                      I don't remember that one Plugger v Eddie) so curiosity has struck. Do you know if there is an upload of it on Youtube?

                      As much as Leaping's moment is magical and arguably of the highest value, I still can't go past Nick Davis's 4th two games prior as my fave.

                        Good question - I'm not sure where it can be found, and Eddie has probably had it removed wherever possible.

                        The footage was of a very young Plugger at St Kilda. He was being hassled by reporters while he was on crutches (coming out of hospital/clinic/club room?) and he ended up throwing it at the most irritating one - a young Eddie Maguire.

                        Man, I hope it can be uncovered!

                          Check 1.51 minutes in. Is this it? Or did he throw crutches regularly?

                              Pretty sure this was one of them. I seem to remember a still shot from another angle outside as well that actually showed Eddie. Maybe it is my memory playing tricks, but it was definitely from this incident and it was Eddie who was being thrown at.

                                My recollection is that Eddie was a target too. Surely he didn't do it twice?
