What kind of idiocy is that? Which of the deals that were actually made did he hold up?

He slowed down list managers by not letting them know what overall list currency they had. It doesn't require a specific deal for this to be a problem.
So basically you're full of shit because you can't prove it.

It does irritate people. That is well reported. This is the reason Essendon are difficult to deal with.

End of story.
Oh so when you say he held up deals you mean you don't know? As in you guessed? As in you made it up?
 
Hrovat, pick 30 and pick 35 (from Adelaide for Talia).

I personally think pick 11 is fair, but with Carlton holding the first pick in the psd, Essendon just have to get a deal done with the dogs if Carlisle nominates us.

Hrovat would be ideal for the bombers.
 
What do I need to prove? It is all public knowledge. He takes ages to deal and tries to negotiate like a used car salesman. Makes public requests that are obviously not going to be accepted.

This makes it hard for list managers to know what they have at their disposal. Because it isn't clear whether deals will go through until the end of the week.

That is difficult to deal with.

As a result Essendon are difficult to deal with.

Suck it up.

Hope you enjoy Talia and pick 30 (obviously a joke - that is only something Dodoro would demand)

Having seen quite a bit of VFL footy this year I'm nervous about Hrovat. I think he can make it but his size makes it iffy. What does he add that Fantasia, Colyer don't already and Laverde will in the future?

Not sure what else you could offer though.

That you're not full of crap.

"It's public knowledge" is an argument based on laziness and/or not knowing what you're talking about. If he's so hard to deal with, prove it.

As much as I hate Essendon, that is a crap deal for them. Picks 30 and 35 are insignificant in this years draft, and Carlisle has far more currency than Hrovat.
 
Dodoro is getting a lot of attention for a Carlisle thread. Last time I looked this was about which club Carlisle might end up at & not if Dodoro is hard to trade with or not. Everyone in footy Knows Collingwood is the worst club to trade with. They have been forever. They want gold for every departing player & they want to give up peanuts for players they want to get. Perfect example was Beams last year.

Back to Carlisle. It looks like St Kilda are pushing hard to get him. They speak highly of him so pick 5 might be in play as some media experts in the so called know have came out & suggested.

I do think it's about time Carlisle does tell the club of his preferred destination. As I pointed out in a previous post my workmate is best mates with a North Melbourne player who's told him North was Carlisle's preferred destination but both parties walked away unhappy by how the meeting went. Maybe Carlisle is holding off hoping North change their minds but I think it's pretty obvious their loss on the weekend as highlighted a bigger need & as a result has put Carlisle further down their list.
 
He's trying to say that Dodoro holding up deals and demanding ridiculous shit shouldn't bother anyone, by stating that it didn't hold up any deals (although how we could know that this didn't hold up deals ever is beyond me).

We have one demonstrable fact. He holds up deals, asks for ridiculous shit that is insulting to the intelligence of those he deals with, and many people in the industry think he is hard to deal with as a result.

We know this. Anything else is speculation.

Why did he wait on the Crameri deal rather than just accepting what was obviously the right deal in the first place?

If you don't believe me do an analysis of his public statements over the past several years. Utter ******* bullshit, that always ends in him caving.

Lol... it's not "fact". It's just narrative crap that the media lazily pushes out every time and people gobble up. It doesn't flesh out in reality. He gets deals done.

The only "facts" are in the pudding.

Nobody really cares if he's "hard to deal with" personally. Why would we give a shit?

It just gets tiresome is all. It's carbon copy crap every single time. Every one of our trades just sees the tools on the media and online automatically "oh oh oh Essendon are hard to deal with watch them ask for 10 first rounders then we'll say no then he walks to the PSD / takes the club to court and the bombers end yo losing him for nothing lolololololol!!!!"

Every. Single. Time.

And it just doesn't happen. The only proof is in the pudding. The rest is rumour crap. Players want to leave Essendon, they leave, and they go to their club of choice, and in a trade.

It happened with Gumby. It happened with Monfries. It happened with Crameri. It happened with Jenkins. It happened with Ryder. It'll happen with Melksham and guess what, it'll happen with Carlisle.

100 odd pages of this thread and it was Carlton's turn to pull each other off with the "Dodoro is a dick we're getting Carlisle for free!!!"

Yes. We've heard it all before. We have no time for it because we know a deal will get done, we'll get a fair trade on the circumstances, and you know who'll get that done at our end? Dodoro and his team. Excuse us for treating everything that is said between now and then as the horseshit that it is.

My source told me that North have met twice with Carlisle, and made no mention of how the meetings went. I'd assume that North are still in the running.
 
I thought they did well out of the Ryder trade.
we could have done better by not turning around and using the extra pick on Cooney
But ill take Langford. good pickup. Looks like he could be a class, pendlebury-esque midfielder. Clem Smith could have been handy as a small forward in coming years.

Quote from Dodoro at the end re Crameri.

I don't doubt that a fair deal will get done and never have. It'll happen one day before the end. The point I have made from the outset, and throughout, is that he asks for more than a player is worth, rather than going straight to the logical conclusion of the trade and sits on that a while making public statements about wanting more. Trade gets done near the conclusion of the week.

That pisses list managers off as it insults their intelligence and demonstrates that he thinks he can con them. Stupid adversarial thinking, and clubs with good relationships don't do that to each other. Also on the off chance he is serious that time with his demands (although true, he never is) the person dealing won't be sure what picks and players they have at their disposal because of him holding up the trade. That doesn't need to effect any actual trade to be irritating or an impediment to their role, as it prevents forward list planning.

Fair enough, I wasn't talking about what you used the picks on so much as what Port gave you for him. It'll be a long time before anyone pays that much for a ruck again.

blah blah, who cares
got Zach Merrett for Crameri and Langford for Ryder (plus cooney, but whatever)
Pretty happy with his job
 
At the end of the day, I really couldn't care less as an essendon supporter with how difficult our list manager is to deal with during trade time. He's out to get the best for the club. And he's drafted well recently, so even more reason to be happy with him. No skin off my back if supporters don't like the way he goes about it.

People who deal with him care.

If he was reasonable about Crameri he would have accepted what he got - which was a fair deal - immediately and without bluster or complaint.

He didn't because he is hard to deal with. He mouthed off about wanting more. That pisses people in the industry off. That is why he is discussed in the media as hard to deal with.

His behaviour will have ramifications in the Carlisle situation and you will get unders. If you'd have developed good relationships it wouldn't happen.

Fair for the club wanting him.

Crameri was our leading goal scorer, we are now in a position where daniher has no support up forward, so we have to drag 2 AA quality defenders to the forward line to help him out.

If Daniher had some help, we'd be in a much better spot. I'm happy for dodoro to request more for crameri. It's not like he wanted pick 1, he wanted a pick in the late teens.

What we get will be determined with who he nominates, and what that said club can realistically give up for him. Infact, ports list manager and dodoro seemed quite complimentary of each other if you listed to the recent draft podcasts the afl site puts up.

Yep good one. Haven't heard that every. single. year.

Try rereading my previous post.

Its all public knowledge?

Cool so which deal did he hold up?
 
God you are all so thick - he held up the Crameri deal - for which I have provided quotes as evidence.

This in itself is difficult to deal with.

Read subsequent posts by me than that first one.
