Jake's going to America huh?

Maybe clarko might turn up in his hotel lobby?

Bombers fans better not get too comfortable yet, very open to getting dodo'd here by a number of clubs.

Jake's only nominated essendon because they are the only ones to have actually offered him a contract.
.for now.

If the doggies had half a brain they'd be ignoring essendon and calling every other vic club
source?

of course its better cause its all your going to get.

surely dogs supporters will be demanding some heads roll at the WO. this has been amateur hour of epic proportions.
Agree questions need to be asked as this has been a mess, but to end with picks 9, 25, 26 and 30 is better than 9, 11, 46 and 80. I'm of the opinion we'll be using 4 picks.

I think it's clear you're planning to use more than two, despite some comments in here - otherwise you would have had no qualms palming off your second rounder in the Pick 11 deal

Why would arbitration be required? We don't have anything else to give other then what is on the table.

Unless you want Colyer or Howlett
Future first.

IF they dogs were desperate to get rid of Jake, they would have asked for arbitration to get the future first on the table.

My bet, either the future first IS on the table or Jake is staying.

Both your guesses would be incorrect then

No.

Do I believe he's worth pick 11 + 45/50ish if 2 2nd rounders come with him?

Absolutely.
Its frustraing people leaving out key assets in trades and just focusing on pick 11 hey.


Im not even 100% dogs would accept bombers pick 11 package today, as has been said before its not that much better than their supposed offer now.

Then he stays at the Dogs from your point of view. Essendon haven't once indicated they will trade next years first.

Why a future first can be on the table? There is no reason for it not to be. It's what the dogs would want from the trade.
Two second round picks are useless for the dogs this year. They have limited list spots and won't use them.

Because Essendon has steadfastly and publicly refused to put it on the table.
