Essendon's Talls

[Dazb86]

Pick 21 for both?

Pick 21 for both?

We'd want something better.

Pick 21 + Dahlhaus for Jetta + Gumbleton + Pick 34?

 

[Wild Bill]

Right, let's open this up, apparently Jetta wants out and we know Gumby is in demand.

What would clubs offer up?

After picks or players? If players what hole would you like to fill? Defensive small forward?

Need a FP that's better than Kommer, and another fast midfielder

 

[raffrox]

Where do I sign?

OK so maybe we are a bit desperate for KPF's...

 

[Zach Package]

If those two can net us one quality player then great, but a pick and player deal is probably more likely.

As eth said, we need a forward pocket and someone with a bit of dash.

I'd also add in mature aged depth ruckman and another young inside midfielder if they are on the market.

Say we were trading with fremantle, I'd be after Sheridan and Hannath, whether or not they're attainable is another matter

I can't see us giving up a young player firmly entrenched in our best 22.

Fair enough, but he's the type we need

Sounds like jetta. :s

 

[Two Planks]

The talls who miss out on selection in the finals are likely to leave. When push comes to shove the dons will pick Fletcher, Hurley, Ryder, Daniher, Crameri and Carlisle. That will leave Hooker, Bellchambers, Gumbleton and Pears fighting for maybe 1 spot. There is no way these players will stay at Essendon for less money AND less opportunity.

My tips are :

Hooker to stay at Bombers
Bellchambers to Collingwood for Kyle Martin and pick 15ish
Gumbleton and Jetta to Bulldogs for Shaun Higgins and Pick 21ish
Pears to West Coast / Mitch Brown to St Kilda / Nick Dal Santo to bombers

We'll definitely pick Hooker. That much I can garuantee.

This year I can't see Daniher playing in a final unless we cop injuries

Almost certain to be his final year this year

 

[Kunna17]

Sheridan + 1st Round + 2nd Round for Gumby + Hurley?

 

[HirdyLannister]

Sheridan + 1st Round + 2nd Round for Gumby + Hurley?

Lol you want us to destroy our forward line?

 

[eth-dog]

Sheridan + 1st Round + 2nd Round for Gumby + Hurley?

lol no

 

[Kunna17]

sorry, thought 1st + 2nd round for him not far off considering Sheridan for Gumby is a win for you guys already, how about Sheridan + 1st Round for Gumby + Crameri?

Giving up young key position players for average draft picks as a rule is bad policy

ok, same offer but gumby and pears seeems to good for you, do you have any goof shut down defenders?? (small ones, hard at it types). Sheridan for Gumby obviously to good for you so what would you say pears is worth? Maybe a comprimise could be made on him as he is less proven than the others.
Would you guys like suban maybe, Suban for Gumby would work??

Gumby and Hardingam maybe? Subans handy, not sure where he'd fit in though.

I'd like very much to keep pears. a spot will most likely open up next year with Fletcher moving on

 

[eth-dog]

Gumby and Jetta for Sheridan and ?. Win-win

 

[cotter101]

I'd be interested what it would cost Brisbane on the trade table to pick up Crameri. A third tall would help our forward line that extra bit if we can't get pick from GWS(Boyd) who won't dominate straight up anyway.

Polec + Pick ~10 for Crameri and pick ~15 would do it

 

[larson]

No. Why would we ever consider getting rid of our best forward.. I know the trade sounds good, but there would be no way we would do it, we NEED Crameri, he is quite easily our best forward.

 

[Wild Bill]

lol no

I find it amusing that Hurley is untouchable. Disappointing is an under statement. If you get a great offer he should be tradable. He is not the player we thought he was going to be.

 

[Bombers41]

Pick 21 for both?

I would take that, gumby & Jetta for pick 21. Seems fair.

And wild bill would have to be a Great deal for Hurley can't see a team doing it (after as you said, less than expected year) plus we just wouldn't want to, can't see it happening!
