the lols I'm going to have if jake comes out and reaffirms his want to play for st kilda with all the posts in the other thread.

And on the other hand, if he goes to hawthorn we've still got 5, which is too much to give up.

It's odd that it's being played out so publicly when hawthorn are involved though. Think they'd want it quiet to limit our ability to react
 
TWR saying its our fault we didn't just do 5 even tho all week they have said he sent worth it :drunk:

It's enough to turn someone to smoking, drinking and gambling :cry: #atleastwecanstillbelikejake
Lots to play out mate. Let's sit tight. We are trying to sort this out with those that matter
 
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.
Well to be fair my calling him a campaigner was conditional upon him accepting an offer from the Hawks, and I stand by that call.
 
Barrett being an utter knobfiddler about this on TR right now. Saying that we should have done a deal with another club to sort out pick 5 and satisfy him. What the **** does he think we've been doing this time?!

The mind boggles. They just want everything played out in the media. We've NEVER dealt that way. From the first minute of the trade period it was OBVIOUS that we do not make comments to the press.
 
As if Carlisle hadnt spoken to hawks earlier in year when he was shopping.

He knows how much they will pay him
He knows if he goes there he might grab a premiership.

He made his choice and this will not change his decision.
If not made up by the bombers propaganda department like everything else so far,
It may push his trade value into the 5 region, but still if ameet doesn't want to pay, he goes PSD.
 
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.

We see things very differently. Rather than match Hawks trade value, I think we need to trump them with an outlandish monetary offer that Carlisle can't say not to. It is the only leverage we have, and we should use it.

If we are offering well overs from a money perspective PSD is what we need to do. Screw the Bombers...
 
Let's not pretend we wouldn't be disappointed if we miss out IF we had sorted the appropriate trade. (Ie pick 13) However, this process will tell the world exactly the quality of the bombers people and club -- 1/JC nominates us, 2/we work at seeking an appropriate trade, 3/bombers push for pick 5 as is their right,4/ they don't wait for us to sort an appropriate trade (something other than pick 5, cos let's face it the entire world knows that's overs) over the remaining weeks and offload him in the meantime ---then it will be a low move and not reflective of a healthy culture and we are better off without dealing with those types of people.

That's the thing though, so many media shills saying pick 5 is reasonable that the general football public begins to accept it as fact.

Well I don't think the club will do that. Matter of fact I'm certain. Like nearly every year I think the PSD will be for unknowns and will hardly be used. And if we offer outlandish money to Carlisle I will be pissed off.
 
The Hawks said they have projected contracts that tie there hands in the draft period last week, they expected to be small players or not involved in the trade period. They were taking their picks to the draft- I think it was their president on with KB last week. Either something major has changed like they are trading out a name or this is a BS rumour generated by Essendon.

If he goes to hawthorn then so be it.... weird re JC as if 3 days later he turns his back on us with another 7 trade days left... also surely hawthorn have cash if suckling hale and lake have retired.... no biggie. Deal wasnt meant to be.

Total knobfiddler.

So a professional club like Hawthorn comes up with a big offer for someone like Carlisle ONLY because we couldn't satisfy Essendon in the first few days of Trade Week(ish)?

We were never going to jump in with pick 5 and IMO, if the Hawks are really pouncing they were always going to pounce before any deal was signed off.
 
OCTOBER 15, 2.08pm: UPDATE - CARLISLE COULD MOVE TODAYThe Hawks' bold bid to snatch Jake Carlisle from the Saints' clutches could be finalised as early as today, if Carlisle and Jed Anderson sign off on it.

JC... let's hope that you're a man of your word.

People will be disappointed naturally if we miss out on him. However after Carlisle himself saying that he wants to come to us and play in 2016 essendon cant do shit unless he does a backflip on his word. I can understand were essendon are coming from wanting to do the best deal for themselves and not give a shit were he ends up. But its up to Carlisle now himself to say nope im going to the saints with the pick they offer you or ill go into the psd and they will put a massive offer that no-one will touch.
