Adrian looked as flat as a tack after the deal. Publicly admitted defeat to Jason McCartney.....yes that's right Jason McCartney.
I fear we may have reached peak Dodo.
It was terrible to see the mighty so humbled.
I left my jacket out on the porch tonight as a mark of respect for his services to entertainment over 14 years.
Bit like O'Rourke eh? Btw, has he awoken yet..?
I think one of the interesting things to emerge from the trade period was the movement of the elite talent Lynch, Shiel and May. At one stage over the last 20 odd months, all 3 of these were locks to go to the Hawks (mind you that’s based your self appointed ITKs). All three ended up rejecting the Hawks due to finding better lists and the perceived higher probability of future success elsewhere. It seems that even Scully's first choice was the Bombers. Maybe the chat with Clarko followed by looking at the trophy cabinet may not cut it anymore? The loss of Russell and how you go rehabilitating Scully and managing O’Meara’s on going issues could go either way.It was what Dodora promised to outbid the competition
So is pick 18 & burton (former 1st rounder) for a bloke who hasn’t had a kick for 2 years...
But those Hawks ITK BS artists still won’t believe that the Hawks was his third choice.
It’s about his value, he has elite parts to his game but far more deficits. Maybe you guys can turn him around
Anyway Dons Sheil is a good get congratulations but **** me dodo doesn’t help your rep sometimes![]()

Thanks for your prayers. Hopefully you guys can avoid the spoon as well. Not that I don't enjoy Carlton finishing dead last all the time, but I do feel sorry for the #1 picks you ruin.#prayforbombersfinalswin
If Shiel is worth 2 1st rounders Kelly is worth 10. Dodo has stuffed it for everyone.
Effectively not a great point you’re making - if you’re making one at allSo Hawks apparently pull out of the Shiel race because they weren’t willing to give up two firsts, yet effectively give up two first (pick 15 + Burton) for Wingard![]()
We will beat you again in 2019

Sooner or later he’ll crumble under the burden/ just like poor old Weitering.So Essendon lose when we pick up a gun player and Carlton win when they pick up a 4th tall forward? Well I guess when you set the bar so low, you're bound to stumble over it. I just hope that someone has told McGovern that he may actually have to play on someone taller than 185 cm when he plays at Carlton.
The Hawks could have picked Colyer as a half forward flanker for a future 4th rounder.Jeez if Hawks fans think 2 firsts for an elite mid and a second is overpaying I shudder to imagine what they think about giving up a first, second and gun kid for a decent half forward flanker.
GW should probably stay indoors the next few days.
You must have been very impressed- made Barrett look like a lunch boy.Literally just heard Shiel speak for the first time on ch9.
We are in different placesI don't think it matters whether they were wrong or Shiel changed his mind late, as I think both clubs would be very happy with how things turned out. Shiel would have been good for us, but he's a slightly better match for you, as we already have two very capable inside mids, but are lacking in class in our midfield rotation depth, and Wingard will help with that. We also need to replace Rioli and soon Poppy, so while Shiel would have been nice, and also helped with midfield class, Wingard ticks a few more boxes in our must-haves than Shiel would have. Shiel also ticks more must-have boxes for you guys than Wingard would have, so both sets of fans should be happy with the outcome irrespective of how it came about. There is no way we could have got Wingard if we paid the price you guys did. I don't think it is overs for Shiel - looks about par for a player of his quality. We probably paid slightly overs for Wingard, but only if Burton returns to his 2017 form. Based on 2018, it was probably about right, but too early to properly assess Burton's long term value.
