[quote="collie dog"]How on earth can Geelong or Hawthorn be favoured to have signed James Frawley?
Obviously we've missed out if media reports are on the mark.""
This is your question.We missed no point. |

The problem breadcrawl is you and your kind take us
"perceptive fellow" too seriously.
Lighten up and take criticism with a pinch of salt.
It is all part of the great tapestry of life.
Accept criticism and we will accept you.
Simple really.
Otherwise it is back to stooge camp for you.

Did you think I was being serious?
Oh.
That's embarrassing.
Sorry.
P.S. I have no 'kind'. I have my opinion and others have theirs. Sometimes our opinions align and there are some posters who I might find myself agreeing with more often than not, but there's no one I always agree with. There isn't even anyone I always disagree with, though that is a closer call. It is interesting that most of the less optimistic want to make a diametric argument out of it.
Just then, I was being serious

even if you accepted that frawley was a star (which i dont), and even if he was worth big bucks (which he isnt), why would you get him in the middle of a rebuild - it doesnt align to our strategy or timeframe. Or do people have such short memories that they expect us to be Top 4 next year?
We wont make finals until 2016 at earliest , so getting frawley wouldnt make sense for him or us

So you're expecting us to play as bad, or worse next year then? even without the injuries (it couldn't be possible to have it like it's been 4 years in a row... could it??)??

Bare in mind you are dealing with a poster who found himself getting irate and personal with HAL, that's even after being told that HAL was a spambot.  |

(apologies for poor formatting of reply)
gut feel is we wont play finals next year. can't see more than 1 team dropping out and i think suns, eagles and crows all better placed than us. also i dont believe injuries cost us the brisbane or west coast or hawks games, or the bulldogs and so on. also predict blues will break their recent duck against us

Frawley is trying to do a Dawes - getting overs for his ability!
I hope it is not the Pies that bite!... but isn't this all just spin and speculation from the spin-dog and his pocket holder?

Reported that Frawley wants to go to Hawthorn, now and that a free agency offer will be made. This is probably good for Collingwood, not least because the Hawks had reportedly dropped out over salary cap constraints, so - putting 2 and 2 together - it probably means the salary on offer is less likely to justify pick 3 compensation. That might also, of course, affect Melbourne's decision about whether to match the offer etc.

| Well, it's an interesting question but I don't think we have anywhere near enough data to answer it, or even to speculate intelligently. It depends not only on their present position but the salary cap movement for next year and the various contract positions/retirements at Hawthorn etc over the next 12 months. |
