Trade Period: Day One tidbits/SEN reported Otto deal

[Rodgerramjet]

Bloody Miller went to the wrong room 

Probably went to the wrong room on purpose to pee sheedy off

[julzqld]

Does that mean Zantuck will go in the PSD?

[Fwoy3]

so we have:
> Picks 1,4,12,16,20,36,52 <---7 in the first 4 rounds  
> Simmonds  
> Pre-Season Draft Pick 1  
> Zantuck  

so we lost:
> Slotthens  
> Fiona  

[Fwoy3]

And on Bo Nixon...I beleive mid-season there was a story that he would not play AFL football again due to health concerns (concussion from memory) 

[Harry]

Zantuck still has a year to go Harry.

He has to stay.

Good to hear.  

Overall it was an OK result for us.  We should have got more for Ottens, but the Fiora deal made up for this.  We keep pick 20 and have first crack in the PSD.  Hope Salopek doesn't re-sign and we go for him.  Good draft picks in order to rebuild with quaity kids - 1,4,12,16,20,36,52.  Can possibly get 5 all australian u18's.

[Rodgerramjet]

Do you think we can manage a ruckmen out of that or will we give them a miss.

[H Tiger]

Zantack deal failed by 30 seconds b/w us and Dons.

Miller went to the wrong room is the rumour 

Don't you wish they would all get along a bit better, stop trying to prove who has the biggest footballs?

I don't mind keeping Ty.  

Maybe TerryTC will give him a foot in the backside and get him playing?

[Fwoy3]

And on Bo Nixon...I beleive mid-season there was a story that he would not play AFL football again due to health concerns (concussion from memory) 

Actually, it is kidney problems

so we have:
> Picks 1,4,12,16,20,36,52 <---7 in the first 4 rounds  
> Simmonds  
> Pre-Season Draft Pick 1  
> Zantuck  

so we lost:
> Slotthens  
> Fiona  

In effect we gained Simmonds and twofirst round draft picks for Notthens. Fiora is no loss. Well done Miller 

[mightytiges]

Otto in an interview said he would like the Geelong lifestyle and that the GFC looked like a stable club on and off field.

[Rodgerramjet]

P.S and mummy told me to go

[froars]

someone wrote an email to SEN saying the trade period should just go for 3 hours and should be televised - rather than have a week to do deals.  They'd be made to compromise becasue of the short span.  Be great tellie!

[mightytiges]

Otto has done a Buckley. Said he was frustrated losing all the time. Wanted to go to Geelong because he wants to be part of a successful club  . Agreed his form was below par past 2-3 years but when asked about his new contract (is it less than before) he wouldn't give an answer ...hummed and hahed... expect to say it's more than the pay cut offered by us .

[Rodgerramjet]

Where is he I thought he was in thailand?

He was just on SEN.
