The only difference with what the Roos did was he admitted it was tanking which is against the rules. Like I said at the time, before that there was nothing wrong with it, and there is nothing wrong now with Jacko not picking Ottens, Shabby not picking Carr, D9 trading Tarrant, or me dropping/trading Lonie - although I probably won't drop him because I know he scores even if I do hope he gets run over by a truck.

Re the rest, I have noticed a bit of dodgyness between D9/Jacko and Max/Libba in the past but I've seen similar things in every comp I've been in and they haven't all been cheating, so I'm not sure there's any in this comp either.

Just on tanking, can I ask why a team within a shot of the finals tank??

Dodgyness between Magpies and Cats
Trade history since Jacko has been coach;

Headland for Tarrant. Perhaps Cats will win, but I thought Tarrant was on his way down bigtime. Headland is a high pick in his draft.

Brent Hall for Tristan Cartledge, I wanted a Bomber and Cats wanted a Pie. Both duds who will probably fail to make anyone happy.

Fosdike for Selwood, Magpies wanted to get the brothers together, thought Selwood was a good prospect as a young kid, Cats thought Fosdike was a safe player.

Lee for Lynch, make Magpies look a bit silly now, but Lynch was getting nothing, and I thought he would blow out not thin up. I was wrong, Cats win. Lee was a young up and comer, but I traded him again for Laidlaw who I found a bette prospect for a midfielder.

Lloyd, Haynes for Tivendale and C.Jones, since I am a personal friend of Tivendale I wanted him, Cats were after a fullforward at the time but wasn't going to get Lloyd as a straight swap. I hate Lloyd but I'm not that silly, had to have a sweetener, so Jones was thrown in. Haynes was just a throw away Cat that Jacko thought may come good, having one eye and all. Lloyd eventually got Jacko Ling, which because of Lloyds injury has been a win for everyone except whoever got Lloyd.

Makepiece for Holland, Makepiece was getting regular 100's back in 2004 season, and Holland was coming up. Holland since has improved, Makepiece fallen away. I have since traded Holland for who I thought was a budding gun CHF in Hanson, I maybe wrong on current form, but I'll stick this one out.

No dodgyness, I can't see any obvious one way trades.

I know your not accusing Russian, just thought I would go through them.

Please explain in regards to Dawk/Swans.

We have never traded.

Libba always makes final decision about any trade or his team every week.
I was not happy with him picking up Davis, but it was what he wanted.

I do help him when it comes to picking up players from the Free agents list, because players who have not played in the AFL he would know nothing about. I do not know much either, just what I learn form Bigfooty.
I do not think anyone would object to that.

If I could remember I would, but I can't. I just remember seeing something that looked strange from one of you, and whatever it was somehow affected the other team. Probably was nothing and if I hadn't known you were related I would've just thought it was strange like many decisions in these games
