If he was going to Essendon he'd have nominated them by now as they're not playing finals.

The fact Cochrane has suggested that he knows who the club is, but is keeping it to himself, suggests it's a finals side and he's been advised to keep it in house in the interests of getting a fair trade from the nominated club.

Pick number 1 for O'Meara.. would you do it?
If he didn't just miss two seasons of football with injury then I would have. Unfortunately, I really don't want him that badly and I wouldn't be giving up any more than a meager salary and perhaps pick #19 to bring him to the club. And no, I doubt he'll get to us through the PSD. With the amount of risk Jaeger carries right now, I'd feel more comfortable using #1 in the draft.

We will use pick 1 in the draft on Clugga or Brodie depending on who ya talk too but only if Jaeger is coming to EFC. Nothing better than marketing JOM and Pick #1 as recruits on the membership flyers.

Well then essendon can gtfo then. What else you gonna offer??

'Oh youre a d.ckhead we'll just take him in the psd'

Ok mate.
Wouldn't stress, doubt O'Meara will end up at Essendon. We don't have any currency which we're prepared to offer.
The psd is just absolutely never gonna happen. Ever. Surely you know that
Wouldn't say absolutely never, but highly unlikely sure.

Just like it didn't happen with Kurt Tippett.

You can bury your head in the sand all you like, but it doesn't mean you've answered the question. If he nominates Essendon, how are you going to get anything better than pick 19 for example. You have nothing to negotiate with. Nothing. You hold zero chips. We would hold all.

When I heard Jaeger was available early in the year I wasnt even interested. Im more excited that this represents a little win for EFC and thats a nice change. The fact Hurley and the rest of the lads have signed on now shows that they all bought into what EFC have planned going forward. The same thing a long them lines would have been conveyed to JOM a month back.

It means a lot to the AFL to have Essendon up near the top.
Hurley and "the lads" signed on because they all bought in to what Essendon planned in 2011. #sobrave

You think you hold all the chips, gloating over the opposition team and then bang, Hawthorn come in with 2 first round picks that they got for the likes of Jed flipping Anderson and you're rooted.
