Traded Jaeger O'Meara [traded to Hawthorn for pick 10 and GWS's 2017 2nd rd pick]

[halfback dasher]

Seriously, I mean you can't possibly believe that, I assume your trolling but it's just wow

Don't think people have woken up to the AFL rule changes .....

For all parties its better to wait to the season is over. You dont poop the bed then sleep in it as its awkward until you leave. You wait till the morning and poop the bed and then do a runner. If he came out and said he is going to EFC for nothing then he would get smashed in the media, GC would be in to him, social media backlash, the AFL start moving goal posts. EFC have been into JOM since he was 16. They wanted him then and have always had a soft spot for him. Now theplanets align and he comes to where he should have been since the mini draft.

If he was going to Essendon he'd have nominated them by now as they're not playing finals.

The fact Cochrane has suggested that he knows who the club is, but is keeping it to himself, suggests it's a finals side and he's been advised to keep it in house in the interests of getting a fair trade from the nominated club.

Or it could be a club like Collingwood or Melbourne, who have no trade currency at all. Hence the outburst from GCS, knowing they are going to get reamed.

I dont have any confirmation on him and his preferences but I can read those I know that might have some knowledge and if this kid doesnt end up at EFC, well then..... I feel like betting a few slabs that he does end up at EFC. Only thing is no one pays up with wagers like this.

You think a guy with knee concerns would like running about on Etihad every weekend?

Another upcoming trade period, another bunch of threads full of Essendon fans acting with shock that there is a perception they are shit to trade with. Magic.

LOLNORF

While I like what I'm hearing I will continue to temper my expectations. I'm just happy we're in the mix.

Ummmmmmm........

Hodge, Gibson and Burgoyne have all re-signed for 2017
All 3 have taken pay cuts
Hodge the most
Then Burgoyne
Then Gibson

Hodge has taken a 50% pay reduction from his current contract

LITE N EASY

A reminder that targeting a poster's club with trolling over their trading or drafting history is against the D&T board rules.

Feel free to familiarize yourself with the full set here.

BUT DODORO IS HARD TO DEAL WITH

I swear according to AFL fans, Hawthorn field 22 average players every week who only good because they play in a good team.

The kid will play in a tutu for unencumbered funds into his bank account of choice.

Sounds like you think O'Meara is only interested in coin.

If that was the case he'd have stayed a Sun.

BAN YOURSELF

BAN YOURSELF

In my alone time?

I wouldve thought 6-8 weeks ago a perfect fit for North but the wheels have fallen off.

No doubt Carlton, Saint, North, Hawks and Dons can all afford him most teams could find a way to make 600k a year available for him if medicals come back good.

I wouldnt have thought Carlton would be in a position to run the risk on tradeing away such a high pick potentialy for a guy whos career is hanging by a string.

Saints, dons and hawks would appear the 3 but blues may well take that risk aswell

He would have to be able to run to do that

Gresham has been better than Francis this year. Every club would've taken Billings over Bont, but granted Bont is a superstar, yet I'd still put that down to the dogs great drafting taking a punt rather than our incompetence. Mccartin over Petracca will be justified. And a fair few clubs took players over Merrett, lets hang every club for taking players over Parker and Hannebery shall we??

Scroll through his twitter you'll find him saying he rated gresham higher.

DID YOU SEE FRANCIS" FIRST GAME?

When I heard Jaeger was available early in the year I wasnt even interested. Im more excited that this represents a little win for EFC and thats a nice change. The fact Hurley and the rest of the lads have signed on now shows that they all bought into what EFC have planned going forward. The same thing a long them lines would have been conveyed to JOM a month back.

It means a lot to the AFL to have Essendon up near the top.

Nothing a couple of titanium knee replacements won't fix.

Not a chance in hell

Nope. Never happen! Best case would be pick 1 for your 4 or whatever your next pick is and Jaeger.
