List changes and trade bait

[goods78]

It would be more painful watching a Swans premiership win from the stands wearing a CARLTON jumper.

I reckon his manager would have a similarly worded email from at least a dozen clubs.

This is almost like the tail wagging the dog. Endless media speculation has forced Carlton into looking at him. I hope to God he stays. I reckon he'll be an automatic into our best XXII next year if he's injury free.

I love him as a player and hope he stays, but I still think that Horse has him behind our current crop of gun inside mids.

Let's just wait till seasons end on this one.

Unless he wants to go, and the Swans are offered a trade too good to refuse, he won't be going anywhere.

He's one win and one injury away from a GF berth and a possible premiership medallion.

Oh no Conor, Matt80 will be devestated by that news - we need him in full voice to help get us over the line tonight!

Speaking of which, whats happened to Matt80? Haven't noticed any posts from him in a while, has he packed up his bat and ball and gone home?

A number of players to the Bombers - looks like they may be a few short, their case (and Essendon's) have been dismissed.

[Conor_Dillon]

Essendon have just been absolutely pasted at court! And they have to pay ASADA's legal fees....hate to know how much $$ this is costing them.

SHHHHH. It's like Beetlejuice, you can't say it too many times or there will be trouble

Maybe the moderators could shed some light?

I noticed that too. Hasn't slowed this thread down mind you.

Reports have surfaced today that another key Swan has been seen having discussions at Visy Park. Although no one from either party is willing to confirm anything, it is understood that Matt80 has been negotiating a move with the moderators of Talking Carlton, the Carlton supporters? online forum.

A source at Talking Carlton confirmed the Blues? interest in Matt80. ?We?re certainly willing to take on someone of his calibre? said the unnamed source. ?We have followed his progress on RWO with interest, and he has put up some remarkable numbers with his posts this year. We cannot understand why he has not been accepted into the inner sanctum at RWO following his performance this year?.

The famously reclusive moderators of RWO were unable to be contacted today. It is rumoured that with the impending sale of RWO to a Silicon Valley giant, RWO will be flushed with cash and able to hang onto all of its stars. However this doesn?t seem to have stopped Talking Carlton from making their audacious bid for Matt80.

?You?ve seen how our season went this year? said the source. ?We need all the help we can get, and people with Matt80?s passion and way with words don?t come along very often. We?ve made a bid ? now we?re just playing the waiting game.?

He has had a little holiday.
Should be back very soon.

We needed a break from all the complaints.


PS: If/When we win tonight I plan to close this thread temporarily till after the GF.
We need to focus on the positives next week, not the rumours

[ernie koala]

Thank you Scott....He sighs blissfully.

[Go Swannies]

Yah (on the temporary closure, not the ban towards which I'm guided by me betters).

"SYDNEY?S star-studded forward line could force goalkicker Tim Membrey to find a new home after postponing a decision on his future.

The 188cm forward remains unsigned for next year and is attracting rival interest after a strong second season in Sydney?s reserves."
