Really happy with this, welcome Jack.

 

[Bunnie]

Cool bananas.

 

[EagleShore]

Sharrod has some competition.

He's actually quite adorable. Happy to pick him up

 

[boondy]

Gonna miss Reddo but you guys have got yourself a reliable midfielder for the next 7-10 years

I think we gave you a more than fair deal this time for bending you over in the yeo deal

Consider it (For this supporter at least) water under the bridge now!

 

[dispute]

Welcome aboard Redden.

I reckon give him number 10.

Better not be on the trampoline.

 

[Carbine Chaos]

Happy with this, I think the GF was proof that we need another strong body in the middle and Redden will do us nicely while Waterman develops/when Priddis retires. Welcome Jack!!!

Sure wouldn't mistake him for Tom Swift.

Can someone do a shop of Reddo in the wings?

Not quite what you're after, but pretty close:

Not quite as good as my Wellingham photoshop from a couple years ago:

Well they did get Lewis Taylor out of it, not a bad player either, though he did slide a bit. We could've given them pick 31, and potentially had both Yeo and Taylor. But who knows we may still have picked Karps anyway...

 

[JEagle]

Yay

Cya Masten

Neither Jetta nor Redden is going to force Masto out of our 22. Reactionary postings on this board as always.

I'm very interested to hear the circumstances of the Redden trade, given that he presumably has no links to WA other than Yeo.

Did we sound him out initially, or did he come to us?

It's a fairly unique coup for the club because we've seldom attracted interstate players and seem to rarely target contracted players.

BOND 007 anything you're able to say?

Anyway, really like this trade. Should give us a good succession plan to Priddis, as well as some more size in the midfield.
It's a crude way of looking at it, but adding Redden's contested ball winning and tackling pressure to the 22 should help offset Jetta's deficiencies in that area (assuming we pick him up).

Maybe it is a combination of things. Yeo in his ear, wanting success, seeing Yeo develop and Wellers perform. It could also be the fact we are an obviously tight knit group and he may not like Brisbanes culture.

It doesn't even make sense.
Redden must be seen as a direct competitor to Hutchings and a replacement for Selwood.
Jetta will likely push Rosa out.

 

[Suma Magic]

Perfect replacement for Stenglein.

 

[Stereophonic]

Perfect replacement for Stenglein.

Stinga

Perfect replacement for Stenglein.

He will "inJackt" some much needed grunt into our engine room.

 

[Here2tellyouwhy]

Welcome Jack Redden.

Loving the clubs new trading direction. Grab the real quality first, allow some unpolished silverware to leave and dismiss rubbish like Sydney's dream trades and Jetta.

 

[YippeeYiYeo]

do people here think Masten is a better player than Rosa?

I can understand the why. What I'm asking about is the how.

 

[2006_Eagles]

Brilliant
