Go hard at Zack Merrett. F* the Bombers. Imagine stealing their captain. Windy Hill would implode

No to Hobbs. He's like a Tom Sparrow

clone. Not good enough to play centre bounce so plays HFF poorly.

 

[booshboy]

Agree on Cera, more of the same. Can't kick.

Don't want Perkins, he's been so unbelievably bad this year. Mentally soft player I think.

**** Perkins, came out before the draft and told interstate clubs to not bother picking him.

 

[MarcMaverick]

**** Perkins, came out before the draft and told interstate clubs to not bother picking him.

I'd do the opposite. If the Martian Manhunters drafted me, I'd be booking to the next shuttle out of here from NASA.

 

[A11dAtP0w3R]

**** Perkins, came out before the draft and told interstate clubs to not bother picking him.

Yeah, exactly. Red alert sirens went off right then. ****ing mummy's boy.

re-signed with the Hawks.

Cross him off the list!

 

[dazzledavey36]

Take note Simon

 

[MarcMaverick]

Take note Simon

This is why the Hawks are such a successful team. They are aggressive and smart not like us who are passive and dumb.

 

[Topkent]

Don't think anyone has suggested blowing a top pick on him


Sent from my iPhone using BigFooty.com

He's in Carlton's midfield we ain't getting him for a second rounder either.

This was a Clarko thing when they were at their peak.

He was very known to jump on a plane when opposition players were on their end year overseas trip and just meet with whoever he was targeting.

No coincidence he just got whoever he wanted and it showed.

 

[I Love Lamb]

Perkins is sparrow 2.0 with his 12 disposals a game. Pass for me

 

[Praetorian]

Wouldn't touch any of Essendon's soft C grade midfield/flank brigade with a 10 foot pole. They have a couple of good mids who would be untouchable, the rest are hopeless

 

[TheBoss]

Yeah - Essendon flankers have worked out poorly for us in the past.

Hibberd. Melksham.

Ew! No thanks!

 

[Lord Nev]

"It is believed both Melbourne and Geelong are likely to put forward long-term contracts to Waterman."

"It is believed both Melbourne and Geelong are likely to put forward long-term contracts to Waterman."

The idea of us winning a signing battle against Geelong

 

[Scythe]

Putting a lot of value on half a season of good form in a 100-game career

 

[A11dAtP0w3R]

"if you enjoy contest and defense, slow ugly delivery and not kicking many goals, Melbourne is the place for you prospective forwards"

 

[Praetorian]

Yeah - Essendon flankers have worked out poorly for us in the past.

Hibberd. Melksham.

Ew! No thanks!

The likes of Ben Hobbs and Perkins aren't exactly on the same level as Hibberd and Melksham when we signed them, and I wouldn't think many players on Essendon's current list would come close to that level of quality tbh.

 

[SugarHealey]

Go hard at Zack Merrett. F* the Bombers. Imagine stealing their captain. Windy Hill would implode

We missed that boat a few years back. I wanted us to shift heaven to hell, to get him over.


Has anyone even considered Weitering as a possible, as he's out of contract end of 2025...
Contract Status: UFA at the end of 2025.

He would be a handy player, as Maysie looks at the end coming.

Saints offered him a Godfather deal not that long ago. Not sure if it's still on the table or not. But it was like 1.5 mil a season. Ridiculous money. I know you'd have to play for Saints, but how could you pass that money up?

I guess that when you buy a ready made star of the comp, it works out cheaper than sifting thru 'many options', to try to fill that void.

Trouble is working capital. We also need picks from the draft, for our Midfield holes fast approaching. Our former strength is now becoming our weakness.

We better hope strongly that Adams becomes a tall lock down defender.

Either that Or we need to sell something, to get the working picks.

Mate any forward would crawl over broken glass to play under Simon "We don't need to score to win the game" Goodwin.

Its a pretty sweet gig, you get ~750k - 1m a year to kick 1 goal a game

 

[Grimey Sylvia]

The idea of us winning a signing battle against Geelong

Not huge on Waterman anyway...

But Geelong have likely already earmarked several properties that will magically become available for a rock bottom price - completely seperate and unrelated to his AFL contract of course...
