I think if you read between the lines carlton want Gibbs but are undecided about him leaving in 2-3 years and wanting to go home.. plus the fact that Gibbs can offer more straight away rather than Leunberger who will take 4-5 years to develope..

After yesterdays article i dont think there will be much doubt about him staying in Vic if drafted.

But he could get to carlton and get home sick and want to leave, he's only a kid so its only natural... and that's what carlton are scared of i think..

The same could be said for anyone,if they take their so called second choice ,Leunberger, they could have the same problem given he is from WA.
The argument that they would take a WA kid over a SA kid because they are worries that one would get homesick doesnt hold water.

Didn't even think about Leunberger being from WA...
so who do you think will go pick 1 & 2 (not who you hope)

Gibbs will go 1 and Hanson or Gumbleton 2
 
Just heard Adrian Dorodo on SEN and by the sounds of things we have a player already in mind (say 85%) and it looks like it might be Leunberger, he also thinks Gibbs will go to Carlton
 
I hope not. We dont need another ruckman at Essendon, we want a KPP and classy midfielder (and about 17 James Hirds :D ). That is all we really need short term, apart from injury free years to all key players.

In this thread Murray seems to think you guys are taking either Hansen or Gumbleton, I can't comment as I didn't hear the interview, but it's weird that there are two completley contrasting views derived from the same interview :confused:

i didnt hear any of it but my mate heard the interview and said he thought the same thing that he sounded like it was out of hansen and gumby but that people were calling up saying by the sounds of what AD said it looks like were getting burger,so who has any clue really.
 
Who do you think Essendon will pick?

Can't pretend I know any sources, we've been linked with pretty much everyone.

Leuenberger, Selwood, Hansen and Gumbleton would all have some chance, personally I'd go Hansen, thats just my opinion.

Apparently Joel Perry from North Melbourne has been delisted. We should take him in PSD and get rid of Henneman straight away. He would fill a key position for us down back.

No offence but if the Kangaroos delisted him do you really think he'd be able to fill a spot for Essendon? :confused: i spose anyone would be an upgrade over Henneman tho... Perhaps u should try and woo Luke Livingston in? :p
Pick up Hanson then you'll have him and Fletcher as your KPP :thumbsu:
