Jesus Christ. Dodo involved in up to 3 trades. AFL had better get an extra couple of mediators on standby.

Well now that he nominated Essendon, Smith for the Brownlow next year

 

[Buzzasto DaSilva]

Essendon will be a significantly better team once trade period is over. Great signs

 

[BOMBERS 4 LIFE!!!!]

Happy with this.

The bloke plays with a bit campaigner too which I like

As I said I think he will suit your game plan very well. How much that figured in his decision I dont know.
It's likely the service to Daniher and your forwards generally will improve a bit.

We need a few campaigners. There was nowhere near enough fight in the Sydney final.

Hows this GWS supporters:
Pick 11 + 3rd for Smith +2nd round?

Trying to see how we can get another 1st round or a bundle to get Stringer..

Haven't seen too much of him so not too sure, whats his forward pressure like? Is he a willing/good tackler?

Defensive pressure is ok and he has the legspeed and the mongrel to defend. I dont think our leaking from the forward 50 this year was his fault. More Stevie J and the talls being a bit disappointing at times. I think his best work is running the ball and hitting up targets.
I've always preferred him up the ground as as a forward leaning outside mid, if that makes sense.
Defending turnovers always part of his role though.

It's gonna be great. Adrian will be working the phone with about 20 journo's and spruikers. Propaganda everywhere. He'll be revelling. Trade Period comes alive.

Hutchy will up his retainer to Adrian.

Well, if all 3 nominate us, he’s going to have to get very creative.

 

[Bic]

One of those players that wherever he ends up the club and supporters will be rapt, but if miss out on him, it's "not a big loss"

Not a big loss.

The result will be the result.

But in the meantime we've got 2 1/2 glorious weeks of AnticsAdrian to enjoy.

 

[Beer n Skittles]

Going to have to redo my ladder prediction. Essendons best 22 is looking very good

 

[AcuteWhistle]

Def wouldnt say no.

Late first at best seems to be the consensus, certainly nothing in the 11 ballpark will be happening without more coming back.

We are looking into Smith's ex's for an article as we speak

Yep. Adrian is Mr October.

Mr September?....not so much

She told me Devon was 5 foot and 9 inches. Those are two measurements.

 

[HumanMeatball]

Essendon haven’t addressed a single issue there team has at all. Stringer and smith aren’t exactly tough grunt mids
