Testekill posted:You know that he hasn't had an interview with us because we don't want to talk contracts until Beveridge can talk to him right? It's an hour or two out of his day, it's not like he has to travel out to Geelong or interstate. It also seems that the Dogs are unwilling to pay him what he wants. Why would he bother if that's the case and he has other clubs that are willing to? He has what is reported to be a 5 year contract on between $700-800k a year on offer from the Saints plus a deal from Carlton. He's already had interviews with both of them and Quayle has reported today that he's doing more interviews and a medical with the Saints over the next few days. Why didn't the Saints or Carlton have trouble getting an interview with him at the start? Probably because they were willing or able to give an indication that it would be worth his time. Clubs have more than enough information on players to come up with a basic initial offer. They would have done interviews in their draft year, seen them play since then, and would generally have one or more people working in the club that has worked with the player on some level. This whole thing screams that the Dogs can't match the money that Carlisle wants and are hoping to woo him in an interview so that he accepts less money. His manager isn't budging on the money and now the Dogs are whinging about it.

Periphery posted:Yeah, it'd be risky. If they only think he's good to fully run out 50% of the game and they get an injury early they could be in for some trouble. More so with it being a hot day. Picked up the Record for tomorrow, I now know Peter Siddle barracks for the Roos.

Majority of the "experts" on afl.com.au tipping Hawthorn so I'm gonna go ahead and say West Coast will win

The odds have Hawthorn 60% to West Coast 40% (1.60 vs 2.40) which feels about right to me. Emphasis on feel - I haven't touched my statto madness in a few weeks. I should point out that West Coast are closer in to where Hawthorn were at in 2008 (which was about 3.00 or something) and at least some people should be tipping them because of factors like fresher legs, better in the ruck and arguably the forward line, etc.

Periphery posted:If you were offered a job at a place that paid $50/hr and then got interest from an employer to do the same job but they were only willing to offer $20/hr would you bother to have an interview with them? Depends on other factors. Maybe I'm unhappy with my $50/hr job, maybe the other place can offer other things. Clearly these thoughts aren't crossing his mind and he is focused only on the money side of things which should be warning signs for any club that wants to sign him. But I'm not sure why you're so protective over how Carlilse spends 2hrs of his afternoon. It would take less time that it would to play a game of footy. The absolute worst that can happen to him is that he wastes 2hrs and if he isn't prepared to risk that then I'd be worried about offering him anything.

Periphery does support St Kilda, maybe he's afraid that Carlisle may take a lesser deal to play for us.

My hype levels have been vacillating over the GF this year. In previous years I have been excited and fully hyped for the opportunity to head into an expat bar and yell at the TV, confusing the locals and Americans alike. But this year the two hour train trip to the city seems like a chore, Back to Back to Back isn't as fun as it should be. Also I am wary of getting as drunk and boorish as I did last year. I will still be going in to watch the game, (I mean it's the Grand Final, one of onlya few games of football that I get to watch with other people a year). But I don't think it will be as fun as it has been before. And I blame Luke Hodge.

This. I don't see the problem with expecting a basic suggestion of contract length and weight before an interview. I doubt he expects a final offer, just an indication. Especially if he's already received that from other employers. Like sure, not the classiest move in the world, but hardly exceptional.

I have a bunch of Eagle supporting friends since we met at work when the Perth office closed down and they moved to Melbourne years back so there's quite a few of them and they're all absolutely tripping balls excited. I'm a bit excited for them but man I wish my team wasn't such a piece of a poo poo so I could properly enjoy a grand final weekend of excitement now that I'm old enough to appreciate it. Also totally realise that line of thinking applies to multiple clubs. But seeing my friend's excitement up close and that they're going to the game and all really makes me want to experience it. It's also probably this kick rear end weather too. That really helps. Permanent October GF imo.

I can't imagine going 4 years in a row I'd be very over it. But hey it's just another reason to cheer on West Coast

Well, I'm excited to watch the Kick over the Yarra contest but will be without Foxtel so Go West Coast I guess? Would barrack for literally anyone but Hawthorn even though they will most likely win.

Didn't they do that last year? Where it was like "the changing of the guard" But that is worded in a way to make Melbourne fans mass riot.

I assumed you were referring to the lack of Goodes on there but then I noticed that Sewell is on that list. What. Who else is no meant to be there? Also, lol at 'potorcade'.

Beau Waters doesn't get one :/ e: "Hawthorn legend Dermott Brereton has backed Daniel Chick's honesty in the wake of his explosive allegations about West Coast's drug culture during the mid-2000s." Ofcourse he has, the fuckwit. 'Explosive allegations' is loving laughable considering everyone knows about 2006/07 already. Smoke and mirrors to try and get the Eagles off their game or something, I don't know. The timing is obvious. Diet Crack fucked around with this message at 08:04 on Oct 2, 2015 |

I guess endless articles about a 3peat win for a Victorian team is preferable to their business than an Eagles win. Wow I really have become an honorary Eagles supporter! drat Victorian bias! In this case where it's the Hun though I put nothing past that bunch of scum.
