I don't know why that is the case. The quality of our opposition (like hawthorn snagging O'Rourke and Frawley) is directly related to our support of Collingwood. Even more so when its a mitch Clarke who we coveted, or a Paddy ryder, where a possible rort is being proposed. Its a bit strange how you define "about Collingwood". Its funny that you don't complain about the "laugh at Carlscum" thread, or the 3 million Mick Malthouse and Daisy Thomas threads. afterall, once they leave the pies, how could it possibly be "about Collingwood".The Seedsmeister wrote:Draft/Trade talk about players who are not leaving or coming to Collingwood don't belong in GD, not matter how you try spinning it.
I go to GD to read about General (Collingwood) stuff, not to read about players from other teams or non-collingwood related AFL issues.
Sick of having to visit different boards all day

I think that's a great idea. The need for a D&T forum seems pretty clear for me, but I think it's good to let the membership vote on its future.WhyPhilWhy? wrote:Many years ago, the prevailing opinion was that General Discussion was always flooded with trade specific threads at this time of year,

No matter what we do, one side will be unhappy. I will suggest to the mods team that we run a poll after the trade period finishes.

Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down.
