Traded Jake Stringer [traded to Essendon]

[boncer34]

source?

Funny how the narrative's been "GEELONG OFFERED PICK 20 YOU'RE NOT THE ONLY ONE" and now its we're the only ones to offer him a contract.

Geelong offered a trade up for a bloke that they didn't offer a contract to?

 

[boncer34]

Do you believe Devon Smith is worth pick 11 as a player?

No.

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

Absolutely.

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.

sounds like the Dodo is in the house along with Clayton. Saad deal is about to drop. Time waits for no man

What's the likely trade?

What's the likely trade?

One of the second round picks probably.

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

future second is what's mooted

 

[nickh32]

What's the likely trade?

Future second as suns have a fair few picks this year already.

It appears either the Bombers or Bulldogs blink or Jake is staying.


No arbitration has been requested.

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

Gamble responsibly.. or in your case not at all.

I wonder if anyone has told Jake that.

 

[Nomad12]

No.

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.

EFC fans continue to be highly confident based on Bomber media propaganda.

History does repeat.

Amusing.

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

Good picks still have currency even if they won't be used. Thy just get traded for future picks. So it never makes sense to view them as "we wouldn't be using it anyway".
