Snip! Keep the smut talk off the forum.



Can someone give me a hint about the smut talk? I am never involved in snips anymore. I miss the smut

Japanese pastimes and an Australian icon. It was an historical and cultural hotpot of discovery.

Eff me are we doomed to keep recruiting duds into this KPF role; Kingsley, Miller, Edwards.

We know he has a strong mark and an accurate set shot.

What is his work ethic like? Chasing?

Really like this move.
Will be a substantial (& cheap) upgrade on some other mooted 3rd forward options like McGuane, Post and O'Hanlon.
Worth the punt IMO.
hooray someone else who thinks that.

hes a medium sized forward why we compare him to the likes of post mcguane riewoldt i dont know.

can see the kings nahas whites really having to work hard and do well just to get a game. isnt this where we need to get build some depth in areas we lack in.and yes we lack in other areas.

b/ morris 185/84 - chaplin 195/100 - grimes 193/87 grimes is quick hes a good kick his size says yes be third man up but run and carry.
hb/ batchelor 188/78 - rance 194/93 -  conca 185/78 good kick hard runner. this backline compared to some is still small.

c/ deledio 188/88 - martin 187/86 - grigg 190/84
r/ maric 200/99 - tuck 189/92 - cotchin 185/83

hf/  s edwards  182/78 - b griffiths 200/100   yes people hes a kpf. - c knights 184/87 part of midfield rotations probably swapping here with martin.
f/   a edwards 184/90 - j riewoldt 195/93 -  t vickery 200/95 ruckman forward.

int/ foley - ellis - pick 9 jake stringer 191/91 mid/for - newman/helbig/houli/nahas/jackson

Just hope it's Pick 74 we give North Nelbourne.

No doubt Edwards is better than McGuane, Miller for that position.

McGuane was good defensively so you would hope Edwards is too.

2013 - 29
2014 - 30
2015 - 31

Probably get three years in Edwards, how many goals? you would hope over 100 in three years and that would be a success!

we will have at least 22 or more players on the list aged 22 or under how many do people want. we can wait and take edwards in the psd or we can f/a him. seems they dont want use pick 74 so we will just offer that.

im actually filthy on them i was hoping we could gain a pick around 45 or in the 20s. i was hoping to use pick 74 on a mature need well i suppose they have but thats not what i had in mind.
i dont have a problem taking older players who basically cost nothing and they actually are an improvement on players we have.
why does peoples common sense go out the window when it comes to richmond and trades. edwards does both.

bloody hell tuck 31,  newman 30,  king 29,  and foley 27  are our older players. you would think we had no kids and a list full of oldies the way some are carrying on.  we are not in the wallace yrs where we traded away early picks for older players to go with the myriad of older players we already had.

edwaqrds at 29 next yr would give us 2 or 3 yrs. he would definately play and offer us something and value add our list. who here can categorically say pick 74 or whatever it is we give up will do anything. .my money is on pick 74 never playing a game if we actually use it on a kid.

Player Review: Aaron Edwards

Edwards started out the year on fire with 11 goals in the first three games. He continued his impressive accuracy with only one behind in that time and provided a good foil for Drew Petrie.

However as the team's form dipped, so did Edwards’. Possibly due to reduced midfield supply, he was unable to get as much of the football and kicked just six goals in the next six games.

Unluckily for him, the forward line hit its straps after his demotion in Round 10, meaning the veteran didn't play another game for the year after the heavy loss to Hawthorn. He was still impressive at VFL level for North Ballarat.

Both papers saying the deal is a swap of Aaron Edwards for our pick 74.

------------------------------

Richmond is expected to secure North forward Aaron Edwards today. It is believed the clubs have struck an agreement to send Edwards to Tigerland for Richmond's pick No.74.

http://www.heraldsun.com.au/afl/department-of-trades/gysberts-pedersen-swap-on-cards/story-fn69a32t-1226503452396

Richmond will today finalise a trade for North forward Aaron Edwards with the two clubs all but agreed on a trade that will be for a late pick - probably Richmond's pick No. 74.

The Tigers view the recruitment of Edwards as an ideal back-up to support forwards Jack Riewoldt and Tyrone Vickery.

Edwards has been squeezed for a spot at North, which has shown a preference for playing Robbie Tarrant and Lachie Hansen alongside their premier tall forward Drew Petrie, and they also have young forward Aaron Black on the list.

The Tigers opened up a spot on their list, and some money, by trading ruckman Angus Graham to Adelaide, receiving pick 40 for Graham and their own pick No. 50.

I agree with claw. I hated it whenever he played against us so for me that's a good sign and he can kick. For pick 74....I'm happy with that.  :thumbsup
