Traded Jake Stringer [traded to Essendon]

[Barry Roundhouse]

The melts between the Carlton deal and the Schache deal on our board were glorious.

And yes, I was definitely involved.

Made the best of a bad situation, that's for sure.

I didn't think Schache was gettable for anything other than a high first.

 

[Capt Hindsight]

In all seriousness i dont think Brian Taylor has helped his career. That package rubbish has to go to the head of any young man, let alone one with Stringers personality (slow maturer).

In all seriousness any Essendon game BT commentates next year will be on mute.

 

[Capt Hindsight]

In the end, no one got screwed over. Bombers got their man, Bulldogs turned the second round picks into a first round pick, and replaced Stringer with Schache. Both teams had solid off-season's and added players that will help each team immensely. All the bitch fighting was for nothing in the end

Thankfully the season of bickering and innuendo is over, time to move to the mock drafts

I can't wait for every poster to say how happy they are that some no name kid 'slipped' to their later pick and suggest they rated them as a top pick. Especially Essendon and Hawthorn supporters with opening picks in the 40s.

That ride was amazing. It was like a 2 week game day thread.

 

[Alfred E Neuman]

Works on multiple levels.

No complaints if he self services. Only an issue if second and third parties get involved.

Wonder what our chances are of getting him to take the cloth for the next decade or do.

 

[Andronicus]

Win/win trade, happy days.

Guessing you claimed a few break ups were mutual too huh?

 

[Alfred E Neuman]

I’m hoping Fantasia provides some forward pressure because Jakey is more of a hands on hips guy. Tippa probably covers that for you blokes anyway.

Nah, haven't you heard? We're turning him into a defensive and offensive midfield beast over a brutal summer. Like waving a wand.

We are all aware of the holding hips situation and have made him commit to therapy to fix that.

I am quite suspicious of these Essendon ‘wands’ you speak of. I take 2 ‘wands’ before every gym session.

 

[Arctic fox]

not an issue for our home games...which we attend in person, right?

I like BT, and the combo of Hooker, Tippa, Raz and Package will be excellent.
Don't forget Saad.
Do we have any Calder Cannons players too?

Bristle... Hooktipparazpackdan.

Does your mother have to tell you everything?

 

[Acinath]

This will be horrible. Essendon fans already horribly overrate their players, and now they have the king of overrated on their list.

All our players are awesome
Stringer is the best ever

Umm.......good one.

Come on, if we're going to go down that track at least be honest with yourself. Everyone knows 2016 was a gift from head office.

Premiership player for the RFC. Pretty happy with Bach, at least he showed up for finals this year, unlike anyone in red and black.

The club didn't want to lose Houli also had a falling out with Knights.

James Hird tried to get him stay when he was appointed as coach but it was too late Houli was already on the way out to Richmond.

Wow. Bazinga

 

[Golden_6]

Oh it's going to hurt watching him in another jumper. Will be one I'll be following extremely closely next year. I'm worried that he's eventually going to mature and become a top 20-30 player but at the same time could easily fade into obscurity.

Was hard seeing Ryder and Hibberd in Port and Melbourne jumpers but you get over it.
