This comment will probably get laughed off but is it an option that we shelve our plans to lure a big name this year and have a massive crack at Tex Walker next year when he becomes a free agent. I have heard a few things about him being a bit unhappy with how Adelaide has handled a few things! If we were able to pull that off it would be incredible!!!!
He just did a newspaper interview recently, where he stated that he did not like the Free Agency process. Also he hoped that he would not lose his mate Dangerfield to FA. He talked about loyalty to a club as well. So I can't see him leaving the Crows anytime soon.

Beams is a free agent this year? OTL.
BULLSHIT!!!
I want to believe he's a free agent right now!!!!
And I am unanimous in that.

Essendon Playing Hardball on Ryder.
"ESSENDON remains defiant and says it will not trade Patrick Ryder for a lesser pick or player, potentially forcing the star ruckman to the courts to break his contract."

By the time this goes through the court system, 6 months? Maybe Ryder will have served the possible suspension? Then he comes to us for free.

bahahaha Ollie Wines or Pearce Hanley for Ryder! bahahahahahhaa
Even if we needed a ruck that wouldn't be worth it.

They're always going to come out and say that. By not saying that, it immediately reduces the bargaining power they have (as limited as it may be); the fact he's still under contract.

Haven't Essendon spent enough time in court this year?

While I do agree with that, I wouldn't be surprised if they actually meant that considering the "all or nothing" mentality of the current Essendon administration. It's also worth taking into consideration that Ryder has "apparently" said that he wants to see Essendon compensated. That good will might disappear if Essendon are seen to be overly obstructive in responding to trade offers.

Connors to throw Essendon under the bus.....can see Paddy taking a plea
Wouldn't be surprised with that at all, it'd be consistent with everything else they seem to be doing at the moment.
Historically Essendon haven't been the easiest to trade with either, though that might change with Kerr involved. Whatever does happen, it will set an interesting precedent.
Went over to the Port board to post this image regarding the Dons' desire for Wines or Hanley.
While over there discovered that there's a "Dylan8" and a "The Flying Doormat"
I got out of there quick smart.

Nek Minut a James South appears in a Power jumper
That would merit a low-opacity face of mine superimposed over a compass with the needle facing south.

My God that was the perfect pic for this situation!
Reads like a story that was made fabricated to sell copies of the Hun. The stuff about Hanley and Wines is likely also made up. Why do some of you read these stories and think the views expressed in them represent Essendon's stance?

Because your club is trustworthy and I assumed anything Essendon related must be true. #nocheatershere

Dude have you been reading the rubbish on the Essendon trade thread. Would not surprise me if Jay Clark uses the rubbish suggestion by Essendon fans as sources in his articles.
