I can't decide whether St Kilda and Essendon bring out the best or worst in one another during off-season. No doubt we'll see each other again next year - I hope the roles are reversed and we target one of your young blokes instead :p

Can't wait to play you next year. Go get Steele!
 
Will we get anybody? Lol
Nope, those are the only two who had the potential to be traded this year.

Anybody heard of Roberton or Membrey before we picked them up?

Who picked Freeman?

Always surprises. Long way to go.

Pump your brakes

Its no fun when Essendon target players, they have absolutely NO ability.
 
I'm more disappointed about Marchbank to be honest, purely because I thought we were a more realistic chance of getting him and he could be the perfect replacement for one of Fisher/Dempster.


He was always going to nominate Carlton and Laverde was always going to stay. I also think Dangerfield will win the MVP this year and Steven will win our B&F.

Unlike the Bummers , our recruiting department doesn't leak like a sieve.
 
no because you are wrong. provide the quotes to prove it otherwise
lol, just lol.

But what the hell

Now, I tend to believe you a lot more often than not - you do like to cause some angst around the place (which reminds me of someone I see daily in the mirror), but you don't straight out bullshit - and I would imagine you'd probably extend the same courtesy to me. But my understanding (with absolutely no reason to doubt) is that O'Meara has been in discussions with EFC for the last 12 months as well. And I would bet my left nut he would have had them with at least 1 or 2 other clubs as well.

So you're essentially right: he's turned down a million dollar offering knowing exactly where he's going to end up alright. At one of probably 2, 3 or 4 clubs in Melbourne.

So, at the end of all of this, he may well choose Hawthorn. They are a great club who've no doubt made a great pitch. And at which point no doubt I'll get the s******ing hordes telling me how wrong I was blah blah blah - ignoring the fact I've always stated that I believe it to be a very real and live possibility.
 
So after all that bollocks he signed for the same money???
Couldve done that a week ago and the team he is staying at wouldve known where they stood and couldve looked towards the rest of the draft /trade period

Lol

And we would still be on about page 100 on this thread, look at the amount of time we wasted on that little shmit Lav..Lav...Lavatory, home with the Bummers is where he belongs. :huh:

In all seriousness we probably dodged a bullet with Marchbank.

GWS rate him high so we can probably get Steele for 2017 second round roundabouts and we should take #10 into the draft

If we can get Steele for that it would be a... well, steal...
Our 2017 2nd rounder likely to be a bit on the late side of the draft ;)

Whatever do you mean? Essendon traded in 2011-2015:
  • Bird
  • Cooney
  • Giles
  • Chapman
  • Aylett
  • Edwards
  • Luenberger*
  • Gwilt*
  • Goddard*
Not quite Collingwood level bad ... but its close

Can't believe we continue to discuss anything with the Bombers. Much more pain that it's worth frankly. Clearly Laverde's manager was just using the Saints time to pump Laverde's payments. No integrity. Move on and deal with clubs/managers that can be trusted or just go to the draft.
