List Mgmt. 2015 Trade, Draft, Rookie Draft and FA Megathread

[SaintsSeptember]

We aren't going to get him in the PSD especially if the Hawks are now showing interest. We will deal. There is a week left. I will be worried in 6 days and 23 hours.

This is wrong.
The Hawks would have no chance at getting him in the pre-season draft with the contract he would be asking for.

 

[Barrels]

"From 2016 onwards I will be at the St Kilda footy club.

I'm obviously very excited about the decision and it's been a lengthy process since we finished the season. I couldn't be happier.

Richo was there in my first year at Essendon, Rohan Welsh, who is the defensive coach at St Kilda was my Vic Metro coach in 2009.

But also just how young they are the exciting football they've played this year.

I've just turned 24 so hopefully I can finish my career there and show the young kids how to develop as well"

If he went back on those words, I can't see why any club would want him.

Bloody good point. The bolded opening is about as strongly-worded as is possible.

Be a politician-esque backflip if he did.

 

[Sir Skid]

I'd rather this doesn't change our approach to Carlisle; if we lose him, then look to split 5 into two first rounders with the intention of snaring Mathieson and a KPD like Collins (or maybe bid on Hipwood)

Agree with this if Carlisle goes to Hawks.
Happier with that outcome than to give a drug infested cult club pick 5.

 

[Winmar2Lockett]

So is Clarko actually on the phone to Carlisle, or is that a lie too?

Now's the time for that pic of Dildoro on the phone pretending to be Clarko...

 

[mysainters]

Bloody good point. The bolded opening is about as strongly-worded as is possible.

Be a politician-esque backflip if he did.

He did reportedly run off field yelling profanities about the club he still played for.

I'd expect anything to be honest.

 

[Dr Spaceman]

Might be in strife... I'm abit shocked to be honest. Lots to play out but wow

It's enough to turn someone to smoking, drinking and gambling #atleastwecanstillbelikejake

 

[sauce_head]

Don't know why people are worried in all honesty.. Carlisle has nominated us. He will play for st kilda next season

Not to mention paying overs for him does not help us. If he's too expensive we are out. Simple.

 

[Strahany]

Bloody good point. The bolded opening is about as strongly-worded as is possible.

Be a politician-esque backflip if he did.

Maybe this is confirmation that Hawthorn are moving to the Junction Oval?!

 

[Winmar2Lockett]

You would hope that Ameet & our team would have been prepared for this & numerous other possibilities in the process of making JC a St Kilda player.

They're damn good operators & if they have been blindsided then it's very disappointing.

 

[TheLastEmperor]

I don't buy it. Typical Ess, media just loving it

 

[plugger66]

This is wrong.
The Hawks would have no chance at getting him in the pre-season draft with the contract he would be asking for.

I agree but them being interested means the Bombers wont let it get to the PSD. The only way it could possibly happen is if Carlisle completely rejects them and I doubt that will happen but even if it does the Saints and Bombers will trade.

 

[gringo2011]

Rumoured trade is;

Essendon lose Carlisle and gain Hawthorns first and Norths first.
Hawthorn lose Anderson and their first for Carlisle.
North give up their first for Anderson.

I must be missing something with Jed Anderson. He's a good VFL footballer with potential but are you serious North would give up their first pick. They are idiots.

 

[Baker_for_PM]

I think this might be a good thing, whatever decision he makes we find out what kind of man he is.

 

[Barrels]

"Oh... Heeeeyyy....."

 

[Choomah]

in other news jake melksham is officially a demon ahahahaha

 

[Munga]

It's a win either way. He either stands by his word and comes to the Saints, or the Hawks get a two timing, untrustworthy lowlife.

 

[crasha301]

ONCE AGAIN WHERE THE EFF IS HIS MANAGER?

Come out and say something! ....anything!

 

[Tristan34]

It would be funny if Carlise said to Essendon thayt he wants St Kilda and thats it, so get it done..The way they have treated him he could give them a smiles, showing his middle finger while walking out the door.

 

[dewah07]

I don't buy it. Typical Ess, media just loving it

billings for jake
anderson for 15
we get all the picks

What do they care if he fills a need?

This x 10000, a young man with some questions over his character, doubles back after a statement like this, don't want or need him showing our kids how to develop.

If he goes to the Hawks, we get lucky not having him.

 

[Dr Spaceman]

What do they care if he fills a need?

They'll care if he turns them from a happy team to a sooky team

 

[BilboJackins]

I'd still rather pick 5 than Carlisle!

In the end, Jake is the only person that matters. Hawthorn could offer Dildoro free wristies for the rest of his life but unless Jake agrees, it doesn't matter.

Surely we can give him an extra $100k year 1 if push came to shove

 

[Big Carl]

If he changes his mind because the Hawks came a callin', well IMO he wasn't right for us in the first place.

Conversely, if the rumour is true and he stares Clarkson down, then that will be a massive endorsement of his character and of his desire to join our mighty club.

Therefore IMO we can't lose

I agree with this, we could end up the huge winners out of this if Carlisle sticks fat

 

[Keg on legs]

Let's not jump all over jake's character until AFTER he accepts an offer from the Hawks, because as it stand right now he is still coming to us.
