2 questions from NeXus Nick
Would you be happy with the following.....
1. Dal was traded for pick 20?
2. Joey was traded for pick 25?
3. Our pick 3 and pick 25 (for Joey), was traded to GWS for pick 1 which we then use to pick Boyd?

Do you get footy at all. How does pick 3 and pick 25 get you pick one? The good thing with what you say though is we lose 2 mids and pick up a forward who wouldnt see the ball get down to him.

Re: 2 questions from NeXus Nick
The reality is we actually really did trade Dal for pick 25 in the real world - do you all think Pelchen is a troll then?
This was a worse deal than Nick was suggesting (pick 20) yet everyone attacked Nick.
So Joey for 25 is also not outrageous (based on the NDS trade)
I dont agree with the final one - I would never trade 3 & 25 for a pick 1 but it is also not completely outrageous and seems a valid viewpoint if you rated pick 1 incredibly highly.
Nick has been unfairly treated here.

Re: 2 questions from NeXus Nick
I agree Con, this thread is perfectly fine in isolation… but as I pointed out CityWest earlier lied about not knowing who NexusNick is… then magically channels this poster?Con Gorozidis wrote:Nick has been unfairly treated here.
People don't like being continually baited or deceived, this person has damaged their own reputation by lying and posting repeatedly provocative posts… to the point where no-one will take them seriously, even when they offer a reasonable scenario.
At the same time, I don't think we need abusive responses… a straight bat or through to the keeper might be the easiest thing to do?

If CityWest had not been tarnished with lies and innuendo, then the context changes and thus an opinion on motive COULD change.

Re: 2 questions from NeXus Nick
Well obviously it’s my opinion and just as obvious as the different, but none the less base motives of a couple on here.
Not lies and innuendo.
Plenty of others agree, but I will take Dragit’s advice.

That's three questions.

Re: 2 questions from NeXus Nick
BFUSA has gone into bat for Citywest.
"Unfairly maligned; does not bait; AFAIK, no multiple aliases."
The use of "Nexus Nick" in the heading is nothing less than a
"Look at me!" to get people to read the post.
Knowing the probable effect on people who know the NN name,
could be inferred as baiting, to generate a response.
There is no suggestion from me, that she has an account in the name of NN.
But quoting the name of NN demonstrates a knowledge of the infamous reputation.
Some of the replies are restrained, to the credit of those posters.
IMHO, the OP wanted to generate some controversy.
Like the Jack Viney decision, interpretation of the rules could go either way.

Re: 2 questions from NeXus Nick
So he/she knows how to get a reaction from the crowd.
He is controversial.
He is provocative.
He elicits a response.
He is divisive.
Sounds like he should be writing for Rolling Stone Magazine (or the Herald Sun)

Re: 2 questions from NeXus Nick
We also got Delaney for pick 77 (or something that), which was only going to happen if we released Dal as a free agent. Given we weren't going to use that pick it was really Delaney and 25 for Dal.Con Gorozidis wrote:The reality is we actually really did trade Dal for pick 25 in the real world - do you all think Pelchen is a troll then?

Anyway I am just trying to say Nick or Helen or whatever whoever he/she is is not really that offensive.
I have seen far more offensive things said on here.

It's true -when I thought he/she was a troll I always thought they won't really any worse than the regulars on here. It's more of a turf war where you don't want people from other clubs deliberately stirring up trouble.

Re: 2 questions from NeXus Nick
true.
subjective = political = favourites & non faves
... it can be no other way,
unless a (all of) community based decision making
process equalises (reduces) the biases.

Re: 2 questions from NeXus Nick
Do you think that GWS would have accepted Joey and 20 for pick 1? Assuming they did, do you think we would have used it on Boyd?
I'm not sure they would have but gee Boyd is exactly what the Saints need. Hopefully there is someone in this years draft as good (maybe H. Goddard)?
