    If you're not bringing in Volkman you're doing it wrong.

    His name literally translates to "people man".

    People is multiple persons which means he will score multiples of what other persons score.

    You gotta know the system to beat it.

    It is a shame that logic didn't fly with Trent

    That was "peoples" not "people" - The word peoples is specifically used as the plural of people in its sense as a collective singular noun referring to a nation, or tribe, or other community.

    I like to imagine The Trent Peoples would be a nomadic rural community of men all called Trent.

    Imagine a caravan consisting of Trent Barrett, Trent Merrin, Trent Hodkinson and every other Trent you know.
    It would be a disaster full of VK commodores, tickets to Download festival and meth.

    Someone from the Trent Peoples called Trent Peoples was sadly never going to score well.

    Was on the fence about him, that's enough to sway me. Taaffe to Volkman, lock it in.

    He would, in fact, be the archetypal average representative from the Trent Peoples, you need have to scour the rest of the elusive Trent People for an outstanding Trent.

    I am a poster who posts a lot. clown Idea

    Loled at this.

    Agree, I can be seen as a group think of 1 with a strong opinion and many posts when challenged on that opinion.

    Every one of my boneheaded decisions/non decisions this year have been the sole responsibility of the bonehead making them.

    I would love to blame groupthink but they have definitely been my own work. Maybe each mundane option just gets dissected and disemboweled at great length and breadth on the forum (generally by a few posters, but that's fine) so that it seems like everyone is making the same moves.

    What actually happens is most people tune out, shit post and subsequently forget about it until 7.45pm Thursday which leads to a WTF trade....or is that just my mate (as in 'asking for a').

    That's why shitposting is important, it prevents the scourge of groupthink (which may or may not exist).

    Amen.

    Good to know I'm not the only one into some cans today.


    Anyway @Aardvark I'm sorry but you're mistaken. Trent is a relative neologism being a probable portmanteau from the Welsh 'tros' (over) and 'hynt' (way) leading to a literal meaning of 'trespasser'. Tresspasser Peoples should definitionally be unwelcome in your team.

    But @filthridden one should also be cautious of players eponymous to Hitler's everyman car - cute Beetle visage of both notwithstanding

    He strikes me as the kind of guy that ends up at Warriors.

    Expect that there are clubs that would love to pick him up ahead of the deadline.

    Could even be a buy, depending on where he ends up and minutes he gets in their rotation. Really cheap at $471k for guy who averaged 55 two seasons ago.

    Article does mention WT have been approached for brown to return to the club.

    Will be a few clubs after him no doubt

    Those Beetles go all day....indicative of a reliable engine and subsequent success perhaps?

    I, for one, would extend a warm welcome to some of the Trespasser People infiltrating my team, a few of the permanent residents need a little shake up.

    Billy Magoulias has been released from his contract in UK and on his way back to Australia. Will be interesting to see if he lands a contract somewhere.
