Desperado, why don't you come to your senses?
You been out mendin' Arden St fences for so long now
Oh, you're a tryhard one
I know that you got your reasons
These things that are pleasin' you
Can hurt you somehow

Don't you chase the king of diamonds, Norf
He'll reject you if he's able
You know that joker Brad Scott is all you can bet

Now it seems to me, some fine things
Have been laid upon your table
But you only want the ones that you can't get

Desperado, oh, your list ain't gettin' any younger
Your pain and your hunger, they're drivin' you home
And freedom, oh freedom well, that's just some people talkin'
Your prison is sitting in an empty stadium all alone

Don't your feet get cold in the winter time?
The sky won't snow and the sun won't shine
It's hard to tell the night time from the day
You're losin' all your highs and lows
Ain't it funny how the feeling goes away?

Desperado, why don't you come to your senses?
Come down from your fences, open that Tassie gate
It may be rainin', but there's no rainbow above you
You better let somebody relocate you (let somebody relocate you)
You better let somebody relocate you before it's too late
All you touch and all you see is all your life will ever be - Pink Floyd

Tiger Jacob Townsend would fit into North’s forward structure well with the retirement of Jarrod Waite and is reportedly looking for a bigger opportunity for consistent AFL time.

The Tigers are reported to be hunting Adelaide injured midfielder Brad Crouch and GWS Tom Scully but both are being denied by their clubs.

Scott Lycett off to Port Adelaide.

West Coast get a compensation pick at the end of the first round which currently sits at No.20.

Dylan Shiel is in Melbourne choosing between four clubs - Carlton, Essendon, Hawthorn and St Kilda.

Matthew Lloyd reckons Dom Tyson will end up at Gold Coast.

Tyson been offered big coin apparently but not keen on leaving Melbourne.

I’d say if we could offer something not too far below what GC are offering we could trump them.

All the media going with Shiel to Essendon.


GWS star Dylan Shiel has nominated Essendon as his club of choice, Jon Anderson in the Herald-Sun reports.

Oh goody, another offseason of the media fawning over Essendon and having them flag favourites once again :sleep.

Mind you hearing Andy Maher's voice crack as the news came through that Shiel wasn't going to Carlton was funny lol.

Everybody questioning our salary cap but not Essendon's after bringing in Stringer, Saad & Greene last year on top of paying Heppell, Daniher, Hooker, Hurley &  Merret and now getting Shiel and still trying to get Jack Martin.... :shh

And then claiming that he's not really a top tier midfielder and Carlton would have given up too much if they got him.

Hopefully nobody does question for a while and then they get caught out and it screws them over as bad as Carlton.

A potential cheap back-up ruck option?

Payout fees outside the salary cap due to the drugs saga.
Allowed top up players before they draft them due to the drugs saga.
Got a number one draft pick for their trouble due to the drugs saga.

But Bomber supporters still try to play the hard done by victim :nopity.
