Ralph seems to think Essendon will get 13 or 19 and Gresham and we will get Shiel. Doesn’t break any of the AFLs rules. Essendon paying Gresh 750k is reasonable with new CBA in his view.


Wow what a great deal. Where do we sign up. SOS might have a short tenure at this rate. Trying to outdo Pelican in the stupidity olympics.

So now it's Gresham and pick 13 for Shiel?! That's horrendous if true.
No it would be Gresham for Shiel and 13 (Gresham Compo)

We give them Gresh and enough of his salary to ensure we get Band 1 when added to what they pay him

They give us Shiel and we get 13 as compo..still keeping 12.
 
The suggestion makes no sense. There is just no world in which Shiel is worth a first rounder. Would not happen.


SOS and Gubby love him because they got him at GWS and want to buy up old mistakes and redeem them?
 
I believe he’s suggesting we’re taking on another seniorish player bundled with a pick? I could be wrong.

I’m in full nuff mode so keep it coming.
I’m suggesting it’s very early and they are exploring such a possibility.

I’m not giving a commitment

If that came to pass all you could do is laugh
It is so non sensical that it would have to be completely rigged.
What is the point. We get Sheil? Lulz, the only logical reason us taking Sheil is so WE get pick 13 and he is a token trade.
Otherwise we might as well take the end of first round.
We don't need Sheil, that is the whole point.

There is different variations to this deal - if it happens.

We end up with pick 8 in one
 
Who wrote that article? Did he they aquire a brain injury over the weekend or something?

Why dont we just ship off Sinclaire for a future 2nd from collingwood while were at it.

I know trade season is always full of dumb suggestions but that is so incredibly favoured towards Essendon not even Gold Coast would do it.

Ralphy's obviously on a Mad Monday bender and probably on this third or forth bong as we speak. :drunk:

Shiel can play and if he cost nothing he's good enough player to take best 22 spot but he is a walking injury and has done FA since being at the Dons. He's worth what ever Billings is worth as an actual player IMO. Which is basically nearly a delisted free agent. He's such a gamble that you'd want to take on his wage only and get him free.
 
We have no walk in backup for Steele, and Shiel is at least an experienced senior midfielder and could easily do what Gresh 2023 has been doing but probably better.

Pick 8 and pick 12? Why don't we say we will do it get 12 and 13 and say, second thoughts Sheil is a 31 y.o soft as butter injury bust, sorry.

Isn’t the idea that we take Shiel and his remaining salary, approx $800k for next season, which then would essentially be absorbed by their Gresham contract and not eating into their existing reported $2M deal of cap they have.

Wouldn’t that be why Essendon do it?

More than happy to pay Shiel the one year of salary he’s owed if we get the compo pick that’s reported.

If he comes across, his additional years won’t be on that same salary he’s on now with us. Think he gets his full $800k year one than probably $450-500 each of the next two years.

We may even front load a bunch of it into next season as well.

Exactly People are misunderstanding. WE get 13 and Shiel , they get Gresham and part of his salary paid by us. In effect we are paying for his compo pick to be Band 1. Essendon DO NOT get a pick from us. Gresh is a FA remember

Is it that we give them both our firsts (Gresham and natural FRD pick) for 8 and we take Shiel off their books to pay Gresham more? I'd rather have the 2 first round picks.

Yes for nothing, look I would even give them pick 31, but 13? Someone is having a laugh
