It would be so glorious after all this crap if he walked to the PSD. I don't think I would ever get off the Essendon board.

Say hello to them from me!

General consensus on the Essendon board you mean.

Couldn't care less what Essendon supporters feel is fair. They have no concept of fairness after defending a systematic cheating regime.

I look forward to Ess trading away those picks so that JC can see that Dodoro has absolutely no intention of meeting his wishes in a FAIR trade.

Well if a deal cannot be struck. It will head to mediation and I think that's where we will find out what the industry think is fair.
Still think it's common sense to offer a fair deal (win, win) like the good clubs do, instead of holding out for PSD where at least 2 clubs who are in desperate need for quality talls and have cap space would take him
 
5 for Carlisle, 23 and 25.

Carlisle has said St Kilda or bust per his manager. Hawks out of the picture now I rekon!

Alistair Clarkson has said he believes the deal will be done to St Kilda.
Iv got an Essendon mate whose convinced himself that he's going to the Hawks, when i mentioned that Clarko doesn't even think that he goes "Well how would he know, he's guessing like the rest of us"

I love it. Ameet has a background in corporate law. I reckon at heart he's looking for a win/win, but if someone messes with him, he goes them. That's what's happened here. He's given Dodoro every chance to be reasonable. Now he's just going to do him over in the only way the bloke appears to understand.
 
I'm not sure this is possible... my understanding is if you nominate for the PSD you understand you can be picked up by anyone?
It may be the case as it hasn't been tested. However the consequences of drafting someone that has just left your club in that fashion would be interesting. I would find it enthralling to watch, but it's probably not a good way to attract other players to your club.

this! spot on

Me too. Was banned days ago.

It seems you are not even allowed to reference the drug saga in any capacity or it is an instant ban. After seeing them carry on about what young player would ever come to the Saints if this is how we do business, I politely asked them if a young man and their family would be more concerned about us not parting with pick 5 for Carlisle or a systematic doping program that potentially endangers their health and well being.

Let's just say it was not that well received.
 
I see a Ryder type scenario- final offer (whatever it is) accepted on Thursday afternoon.
 
Carlton
Brisbane
Gold Coast
Essendon

Brisbane wont go for him and neither will Gold coast as he wants to remain in victoria
Carlton is the big issue

Carlton won't take him if he goes, the club will need to have brass balls encased in titanium to take a player against his will and pay for the privilege and Carlton are not this club despite how many people want them to be, Essendon will not pull the trigger because that will be monumentally stupid on their behalf given how Carlisle would have exited the club (ie "this club is @#$^ed, can't wait to get out etc", and if he leaves to the PSD it'd be a further dent to Essendon) Carlisle goes to the PSD he is 100% ours.

It won't come to this, though, in all likelihood. We'll hopefully improve a little bit (ie Essendon would want to keep 23 off load 25, it may be reversed instead) but it will depend on how much Essendon are going to crash from this week, rather heavily or just a flesh wound and they'll brush it off no probs. Just from looking at it, looks about 60/40 headed to mediation atm.

Oh now it's about fair fair is it? Hysterical.

I dearly hope your idiotic recruiting manager holds his ground & lets it go to mediation.
 
Not sure how anyone could see that the proposed deal is fair in any way. Especially if there is a general consensus that 2 second rounders could be traded for a 1st round pick around 8-15?
Of course it isn't fair, but Dodoro has thrown 'fair' out of the window by demanding #5 goes to Essendon. Well, now Ameet has called him.

How much do you want pick 5 Bombers?

Oh, and the best part.... "we have Jake and his management’s support for our proposal which we all believe is fair and reasonable and would achieve a satisfactory outcome for all involved.”
