If it involves the 12 Essendon can say what they like but they can't do anything because Essendon has no bargaining position.Agree, but deals aren't "done".
I'm sure Essendon would have something to say about "done" deals
The only thing that may stop players using the termination clause is if the AFL pay them under the table not to. The AFL would not deem it a good look and would do what it could to avoid it happening so back door deals would be done. The AFL has done it before and will do it again, that is how they operate, anything to make it look good.
