SEN Rumour

[AndSmithMustScore]

Just stated on SEN by one of the hosts that Essendon are after Nick Stevens.

Probably garbage but time will tell.

 

[jj1978]

He misses campo?

 

[Funkalicous]

Lol. I'd rather see their midfield struggle.

Sorry Bombers. You'll get no help from us.

Pick 18 or 20 and they can have him.

 

[SurreyBlue]

Won't happen but if pick2 where on the table I might reconsider.

Irish ... you must think big son.

 

[douls]

Pick 18 or 20 and they can have him.

i dont think so

 

[Jeremias]

Pick 18 or 20 and they can have him.

Too cheap, and besides, I want their pick 20 in a deal with Thornton, because pick 6 from the Hawks won't be happening.

 

[deluxeman]

Pick 18 or 20 and they can have him.

Nope not enough for STevens, that pick is too speculative. Initially, I would have traded him for a pick in the Top 15 but now thinking about it, it would have to be in the Top 10 at least.

We're going to have quite a few draft picks anyway so no point stocking up and trading him when his value is at the lowest it has been in quite some time.

I'd rather wait till the end of next year as others have mentioned and then consider our options depending on his form, desire to play and development of our young midfielders.

 

[Pafloyul]

Good enough for mine (just) but probably only if Thornton stays.

 

[mcphee_is_a_gun]

please god no.

 

[Bluebear]

Get rid of JJ and Draft NS?

You guys are funny.

I heard the rumour too. It came from a coffee shop owner at the dome who said he over heard a conversation. I wouldn't loose sleep over the it. Mybe an essendon supporter in for a stir.

Why not do a three-way with both Hawthorn and Essendon:

Carlton get: Pick 6
Hawthorn get: Thornton, Pick 18, 20
Essendon get: Stevens

I realise it won't happen as Hawthorn will no doubt keep their first round pick, but I could use it to ring SEN and start a rumour myself.

Am I reading this right! You wanna give up 2 players and 2 picks for pick 6. Your a little generous for mine. Take out pick 18 at the least.

Essendon - Stevens
Carlton - #2

Otherwise no deal!

Pick 18 and pick 20 are both Essendon's. Carlton would be giving Thornton and Stevens. However, I still wouldn't take it.

 

[BahrBlue25]

Essendon - Stevens

This would be the only option I would go for but Geez, I'm pretty keen to keep Stevens, I rate him, I know he doesn't dominate like when he was at port Adelaide but opposition teams know, stop Stevens, stop the midfield, except now Murph of course, and hopefully Gibbs, and Simmo starting to dominate, nah, keep Stevo.

 

[OZBomb]

I'd do Stevens and Pick 19 for Pick 2.

If you get Gibbs and one of Hansen, Gumbleton and Leuenberger you're really establishing a base of superstars for the future. If you're fair dinkum about 'rebuilding' you'd want that deal done. For mine Scotland is more than capable of stepping into the role Stevens currently plays.

 

[irish_setanta]

Theres no way Essendon will give up pick 2, remember 12 months ago they wouldnt give us a 2nd round pick for campo. Thats why i suggested picks 18 or 20.

They didn't have to give up anything because he was out of contract and knew that no-one else wanted him.

That swap is the most realistic and I would take it

Yep.

No chance of that happening. Zero. Zitch. Nada.

 

[murphster]

If like they are saying that Tarrant is going to be traded for Pick 8 then Stevens must be worth pick 2 and 18 going by that scale.
