Aker Update

[ant555]

Hopefully this can be a straight swap between the 2 so we don't have big deals holding up the smaller ones like we have in the past 2 years.

Doesnt look good with Brisbane saying that nothing is finalised and probably wont be until the last day of trading.

I think the Bullies are going to rue the day they tempted Aker. They need bigger blokes and should be looking at snaring someone with their Rd 1 pick.

Dont they realise they wont win the prem without one.

Sam Power and a 2nd round pick would be the deal that's needed to get Aker to the Bulldogs.

Unless someone offers better , Bulldogs 2nd rounder will be pick 28 ?? , when push comes to shove Bombers might offer 2nd rounder + Dempsey , Aints might offer 1st rounder + Voss to try and get flag , Demons might offer 2nd rounder + Miller .

Doubtful any of the interstaters will make an offer but I can't see Bulldogs being able to get a deal done on their terms and definitely not with their first offer.

All academic if Aker says no to the trade. If Aker says Bulldogs or nowhere, then Brisbane have to pay him to sit in the stands next year.

People need to get it out of the heads that Essendon would offer Dempsey, we would not.

Are you out of your mind?

It will be a straight swap, Aker for Power.

We won't be giving up draft picks.

No chance they will go for a straight swap and if they did they would be the ones selling their souls, Sam Power isn't in the same league as Aka and i know ur gonna say the age factor but it still wouldn't b a fair swap for Brissy, i think u will have to part with ur 2nd round pick aswell.

You think Aker wants to sit in the stands next year? The guy is a natural born competitor, his career is on the line here too. He cant afford to get cute here.

Plus remember who we are talking about , he changes his mind every second day .

Other clubs are not going to make an offer to Aker without speaking to his management and you can bet his manager isn't telling them its a done deal with the Dogs .

For the supporters who state Aker is worth only a second or third round pick , have you any idea , you will be supprting that club in 3/4 years so want to see draft picks turn into players . However Coaches, Presidents and club CEO's who don't win on the field don't last 3/4 years .

As I have stated previously the bidding has only just begun .
