Certified Legendary Thread Future of James Aish, for a limited time only! (trolling opposition supporters automatic day off)

[captainrich]

I wouldn't be surprised if his initial intention was to take off at the expiry of his contract. Now over time(alot) he's gradually come round that this is not such a bad place. Imo it'll be a 3 year contract in front of him, so a big decision for him. That's my take on it anyway.You don't necessarily have to fall in love with your club straight away.
Buuuuuut, I'm certainly over this waiting.(for him to tell us he's leaving)

Apparently the decision will be made Fridya

Agreed.

I like Aish view:
1. didn't clear the locker - yay
2. didn't confirm he wants to leave yet - yay
3. Season's over and still has not said anything about preferred club - yay
4. Took the training plan with him and showed up for exit interview - yay and bloody yay

I don't like Aish view:
1. Delayed contract for 12 months - D'oh
2. Kept deliberating for too long - D'oh
3. Rumours about floating a 1 year deal - D'ohhhhh
4. Wants go Melbourne and play for FIGJAM - Ewwwwww ******* campaigner.

Keep twisting and turning between these points

Duffman is thrusting in the direction of the problem!!

Not sure if anyone has posted as yet but on the radio this morning Rddie seemed like he new Aish was leaving Brisbane. I think he is gone unless he genuinely can't make up his mind.

I think Reddie was just being his usual self - no clue, but rocking the boat.

I just listened to it and he did seem a little smug but that is Eddie. If you listen to the convo just before it he is saying "trelor will find his way to collingwood" and in the next sentence he is saying that the saints will need to offer something pretty good to get Freeman. He is always a smug person!! We will find out by tomorrow i guess!

Do you have a link to the interview by any chance?

 

[cheekyLionsFan]

what did he say exactly in the interview (regarding aish)?

It wasn't an interview, just the morning crew talking about draft week. It was between 7:30am & 7:45am if I recall. Haven't looked to see if you can listen to specific segments of shows that have aired.

 

[captainrich]

imagine if Aishs plan all along was to get to Carlton and they steal him via pick 1 in PSD

17.25 mins in is where the Aish comment is.
Just listen to the minute or so before hand and you will understand what sort of mood he is in!!

 

[cheekyLionsFan]

Just listened to it. Not reading a lot into that. Eddie being a tool as usual

So some people on the board actually listen to Eddie. Why would you do that???

So they will recognise a dick when they hear one.

Didn't the smug campaigner also say Beams wouldn't leave?

 

[Hollow Knight]

I think I kinda want to see him go just to see how we go about the trade. I am not 100 sure Leigh's "he won't be traded under any circumstance" threat will play out, but we are definitely gearing up to play hard ball. It's clear that Swann and Leigh see it as some sort of line in the sand moment.

It's not our problem if Collingwood trade all their tuck shop money for Treloar. The onus is on them to get the deal done or we will be well within our rights to send him to the draft. Collingwood are generally pretty reasonable in that regard, but it's hard to work out what would satisfy us. Schwab seemed to suggest the other day that we are all about the draft picks. Whatever they get for Freeman would be the starting point, but it would take a bit more.

 

[bungalow_bill]

Yes - despite some of the feral fans - Collingwood are usually fair traders. If he goes there we could get their 2016 first rounder which I'd be ok with.

We could, but I doubt it.

 

[BangyBangy]

We could, but I doubt it.

Does anyone know what happens with Collingwoods ability to trade future picks if they also get a future pick in for one of their players going out this year? Hypothetically would they be able to trade a future pick they get of the Saints, plus either their own first or second round pick in 2016? Are there restrictions on how many future picks you can receive or only on how many you can trade out for one year.

 

[bungalow_bill]

Trading another clubs future pick - never considered that but you'd think it wouldn't be allowed. It's complex enough as it is

I would have thought it was definitely possible

 

[The Flying Belgian]

Unless we send a second rounder back to them to help pay for Treloar.

Just thinking out loud.

Yeah, for us to get value from that trade we'd basically be gambling on us rising a little up the ladder and the Pies stagnating or dropping.

I presume you mean us sending next year's second rounder back, not this year's?

Depends on what GWS want. If it were this year, it may not be our existing 2nd, but another we were gaining. Again, I haven't crunched any numbers. Just floating it as a possibility.

 

[Toffee Lion]

Am I the only one thinking this is unprofessional?

Worry about your own players.
