Clicking Balls

In this episode we go through the trade and free agency freak show that is the AFL trade period. Otherwise known as the time between AFL and Melbourne Cup.Have Freo flooded themselves with valuable little men, which was never their weak point?Have West Coast been higher than an eagle and not given a stuff about trades n stuff?We decide the winner and losers for each trade, unless we forgot, in which case we didn't decide a winner or loser. Have Geelong hired a Wall St shark to conduct their trades, ensuring everyone gets ripped off and nobody quite knows how?Are rural players at a disadvantage by not being able to cite homesickness as a means to get into a premiership club?May as well be a fortune teller, because it's easy to predict your clubs future from the info in this podcast.**Info may not be in actual podcast.

In part 1 of this episode we go into more stories from Brenton's time working in casinos and a few poker stories thrown in for good measure. Since Josh is out of action on daddy duties, we're joined by the Degenerate Duncan. Duncs and Heath used to work together, where his love for poker and gambling was fueled by hearing second hand stories of Brenton's casino days. If we were going to be talking Mahogany Room stories, there is no chance he could be left out.

Only two games on this week, but plenty of action in those....well....one of them, but the off field rumour mill is just starting to hit full boost, so we sort out the proper news from the propaganda.Well, we don't really sort it all out.
