And what kind of expectation would we get if we hopped on to the Essendon board making broad claims about how we're going to get Ryder? Don't think we'd get a great reception.

Just signed up that gun Laycock so I presume Ryder is available. We should get him :thumbsu:

true, but all i did was come onto your board under the knoweledge that we were going after him, and was wondering what you guys as brisbane supporters would expect in exchange for someone like him.
alls fair when you guys say, you hope he doesnt leaves and wouldnt want to trade him etc.
but i just think it is a little silly that some of you are practically have a big whinge saying, its unfair, essendon are just poaching, they shouldnt do it cos its not fair...
...cos it is part of the game...happens all the time

Who was the last person Brisbane poached?
 
BRSIBANE LIONS coach Leigh Matthews says his club would always be interested in a player of Daniel Kerr's quality.

while its not a trade so to speak, your interested in someone from another club!!!:eek:
thats big no-no apparently?

Fail.

How is that poaching? Kerr is contracted at the Eagles next year.
 
you can still go after him.
and yes shit example,

The reason it was a shit example was because that's all you've got.

Firstly, we didn't make a play for Kerr. Leigh answered a question in response to speculation that Kerr wanted out.

Secondly, if we were trying to coax Kerr to join Brisbane I'm sure West Coast supporters wouldn't be too happy about it.

making a play for a player is not some dog act to be whinged about:thumbsu:

If everyone was on an equal footing I would maybe agree. But for Essendon to campaign against the retention allowance which was designed to stop Melbourne clubs raiding players from Brisbane, only to continue their raid on Brisbane players is hardly endearing.

Essendon haven't broken any rules as such, but at the same time I think Brisbane supporters are entitled to think that it's all fairly lousy.

Imagine the Voss conspiracy theories they would spin;)

firstly, although u didnt make a play for kerr, he said he would b interested. of course nothing happend and its not big, but its jst an example that you have shown some interest (even if little) in a player at another club

secondly i was never arguing that brisbane always 'poaches' people, rather was saying, we are interested in a player and theres no need to whinge and cry about it

I don't know if it is deliberate or not, but you are confusing 'showing interest' and 'poaching'.

He's staying in Brisbane anyway so you can move along. Riska could have been a nice draft bargain for you a few years ago, but you've missed the boat.

Ciao.

we're not going at him because he is from melbourne, its cos knights n o'donnel and the others rate him.

all fair to say u dont want ess. having a crack, but all the "Essendon are a disgraceful club" stuff is just stupid
granted it wasnt you guys that are replying now, but thats the stuff im talking about

Oh yeah, it's just a coincidence he's a local...:rolleyes:
 
Look, it's an argument you can't win.

It's like a bad parent neglecting their kid, till he moves away, then ten years later when he's become something in a new family, coming back and saying "MY BOOOOY!!!, long time no see, why don't you come home? I've got lots of cookies!"
 
sure it helps, but i think we are a little more interested in whether he can play football, rather than his address

Well obviously you aren't going to chase players who you don't rate. But the reason Rischitelli was targeted was so that Essendon could play on the go home factor.

What a load of crap!!!

So because we argued against you receiving ongoing salary cap concessions we are never again allowed to show interest in recruiting one of your players??!!
