@hasumpstuffedup @cleary_mitch @7NewsMelbourne @7NewsAdelaide @7AFL And if it wasn't said? Just a happy little accident?

@buggerlugs___ @butters_jon @EddieNap395 @KostaMastro If he leaves, I think the reduction in negotiating power and the value return will be minimal.

They could have traded the picks forward but other clubs didn't value 2025 R1 the same as other years and we'd still be in the same situation of using them to draft an academy player.

[spektor @spektaur]

@buggerlugs___ @butters_jon @EddieNap395 @KostaMastro He's a RFA, negotiating position both years is pretty similar. Club spent the preceding 12 months trash talking the 2025 draft. The only additional thing trading last year would have yielded is picks in the 2025 drawer which they didn't want.

[spektor @spektaur]

@butters_jon @EddieNap395 @KostaMastro Butters IS a star. Dougie likely will be. Zemes might. Louis might. Tevita might but also Essendon NGA eligible.

As for the feelings thing, what a weird thing to say.

[spektor @spektaur]

@butters_jon @EddieNap395 @KostaMastro Justifying losing a top 5 or 10 player in the league for picks for academy prospects is diabolical. I understand the change for bid matching but it doesn't make the situation any more palatable.

[spektor @spektaur]

@butters_jon @EddieNap395 @KostaMastro Everyone is trading a top 5-10 player in the competition for that, eh?

[spektor @spektaur]

@butters_jon @EddieNap395 @KostaMastro Clubs manage to get their academy picks without offloading top 5-10 players in the league every year. Don't normalise us losing Butters for players we still would have drafted if he stayed.

@PAFC For the sake of the club, I hope Gather Round is being played at night without lights on. I've signed up for self-defence classes so I can pop my eyes out like grapes so I never have to see this again.

[spektor @spektaur]

@CharlieK_news He's had plenty of practice at redactions.

[spektor @spektaur]

@SpannersReady They offered Norris priority. He didn't want it for fear of a safety car giftng Piastri a cheap pitstop. There was little threat from Leclerc. From the radio discussion it seems the team previously decided a slow pitstop is part of racing and not worthy of intervention.

@CouchySays @WariorFanAkumpo @CalTwomey They helped him develop something.

@simsgazette It's called a motor race, okay? We went car racing.

[spektor @spektaur]

@ln4norris mfw it was Lando's decision to pit Oscar first

[spektor @spektaur]

@landosmile If Lando had rightfully literally been thrown in jail after Singapore, COTA sprint race turn 1 never happens.

[spektor @spektaur]

@hoodieoscar Correct, because it was two collisions.

[spektor @spektaur]

@heart4VER Piastri literally gave a 6 point turnaround to Norris and you idiots are unironically talking about Oscar being gifted the WDC.

[spektor @spektaur]

@RuthVogels17 @ln4norris LNPoor stans

Hard racing without teammate contact before "Papaya rules": 🤬

Reckless racing with teammate contact after "Papaya rules": 😇

If Oscar's overtake in Monza 2024 was so bad, you should be disgusted by Norris' overtake in Singapore 2025.

[spektor @spektaur]

@clovrleafmotors Held accountable but still got those points, hey?

[spektor @spektaur]

@LN4addict @t1mtuffknuckle "skill issue cry about it" meanwhile Oscar never making contact while giving up points for LNPoor and still leading WDC
