Yeah it's deadest stupid. Say what you want behind closed doors, publicly say thanks for your service and we will work with other clubs to get the best outcome.
Agree our club should of taken the Essendon route, say nothing, admit nothing

It was poor form from Cochrene but it has been blown out of proportion too.

Yep everything seems to be pointing in their direction. Cochrane said he 'had a fair idea' where Jaeger wants to go. So based on his tirade and the threat of the PSD, you would assume it's not Essendon.

Despite their dominance, I doubt Hawthorn's cap is bursting. Their high paid stars are mostly over 30. Brad Hill looks to be leaving, which should net a decent pick in return. So they'll have the Hill pick, a 2016 first rounder & a 2017 first rounder to enter into negotiations.

Could be way off the mark though. Maybe he is going to Essendon and Cochrane is just a goose.
Doesn't sound like he is the full quid

What are the Hawks prepared to offer? Im guessing either this years or next years first and that would be it leave it or take it. Maybe allow Whitecross to move without the need to use FA ontop means Good Coast probably dont have to pay him as much

Admittedly I don't know much about him, but the guy is the President of an AFL club and has held a number of high profile positions at other organisations.
I would assume he is well & truly the full quid and then some, in comparison to your average Joe.

But perhaps you are right.

In all likelihood, he is undecided and keeping his options open and will go to the club with the best sales pitch. Kevin Durant in the NBA is a perfect example of players wanting their ego stroked and being wined and dined by clubs. Worsfold and McKenna had coffee with him three weeks ago, and Worsfold has been in contact since. Would love to have him at Essendon (assuming health is OK), but can see Hawthorn taking a risk with him as he could extend their window if fully fit.

I can assure you that none of those things necessarily mean the bloke is more intelligent than the next person.

Plus a first rounder? But you can't trade a first rounder this year?
Degoey and a 1st rounder?

Omeara isn't worth that.

In fact Degoeys 2nd year compares pretty favourably with Omeara's (without the extra years AFL training JoM had) but comes without the injury risk.

Imo a Degoey for JoM would be a straight swap and pretty stupid for Pies to do UNLESS Degoey says he wants out. It is moving sideways rather then a list improvement with Omeara's injury cloud.

But if he isn't on the table then yeah we have no 1st round pick unless we trade into it.

You couldn't help yourself could you. Comparing JOM with the weakest basketballer!! I felt the knife again!

Jordan probably wouldn't wanna leave Vic though?

No I absolutely understand that & hence my "perhaps you are right" sign off as well as my previous post saying "maybe Cochrane is just a goose"
I was more just trying to say that Cochrane knows how the system works and therefore there's probably more to his comments than meets the eye.

I rate Prestia very highly and sad to lose him but at least he said he wanted the Suns compensated adequately, if Jaeger chooses Essendon i can see just go through to the PSD..Because that's the kind of dog he is!

I know right, imagine having the gall to expect a club "adequately" try and fix injuries sustained whilst playing for the club.

Poor old Gold Coast, who never poached a player that another club had invested a great deal into themselves...
