1st rounders aren’t paid for VFL players unfortunately for Essendon.
Having said that, if the Bombers are prepared to cough up their 1st rounder for Bytel then maybe we can all get our biros out 🤔
 
Yeah I didn't expect Pick 9. Obviously a first rounder would be a starting point if the question was asked though. I certainly wouldn't respond to suggestion of a 3rd round pick. The bulk of the development work is done. He'll be ready for consistent AFL time next year I think, and I'd actually prefer we kept him; he and Draper will make an awesome 1-2 punch and Wright wouldn't have to ruck.

Anyway, responses here make it seem like a 2nd rounder is probably more appropriate from your end. If Bryan wants out, of course I hope Dodoro squeezes a first out of you. A late first would be great.
I'd imagine that if Dodoro was demanding a first for him then a deal just wouldn't get done and we'd all move on
 
Weak call.
Enjoyed his information but bloke shut up shop as soon as he was challenged in any capacity. Imagine being cut up about strangers anonymously challenging you on an Internet forum about on a game.

Equally people took his information as gospel and then cut up rough when it didn’t materialise.

You sound Dodoro, a first for Bryant, look it is ok to talk trades, you have not been trolling so welcome, but a first? Yeah nah. You can have whatever we get for Ben Long

Still gets good info but has taken it to PM. In his words (in effect) 'too many w***ers on the forum'. If that fits you well that's for you to decide, I have never had an issue with you.

You’d be lucky to get an end of second round selection.
Investing 2 years of development into someone doesn’t add to their worth when they haven’t proven their ability.

He has proven he can play at the level reasonably well. He'll be champing at the bit for an opportunity now. Just needs a consistent run at it.

Because it didn’t materialise doesn’t make it wrong.

Things change. It’s hardly ever a straight line call if you are making it from so far out.

Sharing something among supporters and with a good track record makes it unfair to go after them and challenge them.

Achieves nothing. Makes people walk away from here. If you have an issue ignore the person and carry on with your life. They aren’t directly calling you out
 
$850k for two years, to get a potential gun for the next 15 years at pick 7....

I would do that EVERY SINGLE YEAR!!

Imagine buying an extra pick 7 every year for just $1.7mil on the books. You'd eventually get to the point of having too many stars to buy more pick 7s!

As many have said, seems like a no-brainer. We must be in some trouble if losing Hanners, Ryder, Geary, Kent, Long, and possibly some of Hill, Clark and Bytel.... and yet we can't buy pick 7? Spells trouble. Hopefully not another coach trying to save his own arse with a quick fix instead of bringing in quality early picks.

The mind boggles. There must be some criminally overpaid players in our list.


It sounds like the Cats are going to spread it over 4 years so make it evened out to $650k pa or something.

I hope we aren't into any of your players because your list management team seems to be the worst in the AFL to deal with and I'd rather Dodoro not get the air time.
 



Teams interested without pick 7.

It would have to be a low point in a player's career to be the steak knives in a pick downgrade.
 
This stuff with Newbold and Hawthorn just gets murkier and murkier which makes Clarko North Fagan Bris all look a bit sad and clouded in uncertainty.

Hard to do deals with this hanging around makes Saints more attractive like Steve Bradbury..all others fall and we remain.

From the Essendon board:

Yeah, I can imagine. Skinny ruck with zero profile - not exactly the sexiest suggestion!

Maybe an upgrade of 22 to 9 with some late picks to help with our bids. But that’s only if Bryan is desperate to leave. He’ll definitely get opportunities at the saints, Ryder retired, Marshall seemingly injured regularly and Hayse has an ACL.

Some serious delusion going on. They really think we would piss away pick nine like that.

If you disagree with the suggestion I made, that’s cool. But I’d prefer not to be quoted on your board with such a pejorative tone. It’s not really a fair fight.
