They sure do.
Still think Carlisle will find his way to Carlton.

But do we really want him ?

Yeah i'm torn to be honest.
Attitude vs ability.

Attitude and consistency and sanctions vs ability.

If Collingwood trade their 2016 first round pick for Aish... the AFL will do everything to make Collingwood finish with the highest pick. Play Hawthorn 8 times. Don't play us. etc.

The Bombers would be certain to receive a first-round pick for Carlisle and depending on the quality of that pick, could ask for a future pick as well as part of the deal.

Don't you do it SOS. If you have to play Jamison, Rowe, Giles, bloody Liam Jones in defence until Weitering is ready then do that and take the losses.

 

[Magruder]

if you're going to get Carlisle you do it in the PSD. No other way does it justify the risk.

Shit attitude, plays 3 good games a year, gives his own players/club a spray............hell that's leadership material at Carlton.

 

[Just Kreuzing]

It was Watson over Darling

Worked out well also.....

 

[Jock]

The Essendon players won't get huge sanctions. They will do some back dating. Carlisle is a good age, hates Essendon. He's perfect for us. Via pre season draft for nothing bending his old club over and long term we will be at the peak oh his powers when we have finally recovered. Hit the go button.

Since when did Henderson relinquish his free agency status.....

Have no real issue if it's through the PSD.

He may seem to have a shit attitude but look where he's been the last 5 years. In that environment it would be pretty tough. His reaction could just be a sense of frustration.

Agree he is perfect from a positional, talent and age profile.

And he ALREADY HATES ESSENDON - There's nothing wrong with his attitude, in fact it's perfect.

 

[bluekidjoe]

Agree, cut him a break.

 

[JamisonRun40]

Gawd the players are like little children. Carlisle says something to a crow player who then goes and blabs it to a team mate who in turn goes and tells Carlisle's team mates. Chinese whispers.

 

[SafeAsMilk]

I don't know about having a schitt attitude. It sounds like he actually gives a crab about winning. Wait till he gets to Carlton.

He does seem like a loose cannon though and maybe that's not the best thing to have around a club during a rebuild. Boy it would be sweet if he went through the PSD to us, though.

What he actually said was "Gee I love this club and Hird is the right man for the job IMO"

 

[Jamie007]

I'm all for getting Carlisle. Everyone on here saying he's had a shit attitude etc etc. Maybe he's the only one at Essendon who is acting the way most of us would and should seeing what they've done to their players. Id be livid with the club for what they've put him through if I was him and wouldn't want to be playing for them either. Id be letting the whole AFL know what I Think of them. Maybe it was his way of making a stand against everything that went on.

 

[Just Kreuzing]

Seem to recall Betts, Garlett and Robinson were playing very ordinary football and were displaying poor attitude until a change of scenery....

Still think Garlett is playing some ordinary football but everyone else in the football world are getting carried away so lets run with it.

This.

I'd be pretty angry with the Bombers if I was an Essendon player.

I'd also be angry with all the bullshit about what a great bloke Sir James is. Christ, we can all see it but the players have had to back him because otherwise they are frozen out.

Remember a poster on another forum saying he knew him and what a great kid he was. Easy to coach and a hard worker.

I think he's going alright. 35 goals in a team that has the least amount of i50s in the comp. 9 more goals than our leading goal kicker.

Not bad for a late round pick upgrade.

If you look at goals only then yeah he is going ok, is still very soft and misses far too many regulation shots on goal and drops a few marks he shouldn't.

Joe the gooses have saved him somewhat.

Carslile just needs a change of scenery. Put him in Navy Blue and watch his attitude change and his output increase.

 

[Wickzki]

Is there any way that we could wait until the WADA trial is over and then add Carlisle like Collingwood did Ben Hudson?

If so then that is the way that I would go about it and we would ultimately pay him his worth that way. If not then I pass.

New coach as well
