Opposition supporters coming to troll , you have been warned

Mate if punching on with them is development then sign him up

Usually its get punched by them.

Steele for a 2027 3rd. Essentially nothing just get the captain and his salary off of the books.

I know they're not the same player but it seems a bit strange to go after Macrae and move on Steele when I'd expect Steele to be the better player over next last two years. Only one of them is beloved by your fans and a captain though.

Kind of Crazy to think that Steele was at one time considered level in Value to Bont by the general AFL World.

In the end, Steele plateaued and Bont kept getting better.

 

[JohnnySteel]

Damn, Tigers grabbed Patrick Retschko. Thought he was really stiff to get delisted by Geelong, Has a lot of talent.

 

[Pencil case]

Cannot believe Essendon are gonna keep Merrett. Talk about ego getting the better of you.

It’s in our best interest that Merrett stays

 

[who_let_the_dogs_out]

He's under contract. Good on them.
I don't want to see the Hawks get better either.

Keeps them in the conversation for Butters now though. Not great.

 

[0utsider]

Baffling by the Dees when they already have Viney. Gave him an extra year too.

They just lost 2 of their 3 best mids, they had to bring someone in to help Viney while their developing players find their feet.

They know they’re not competing, he’ll be good for development.

How so? Hawthorn smashing their draft hand for a 30 year old seems to be more beneficial for us when it comes to the Butters chase next year.

 

[Philthy1]

This actually makes me angrier than anything JUH has posted. Shows how both of these pricks take no responsibility for their actions and somehow blame the dogs for their wrongdoings. Jesus ****ing christ. Pathetic.

It’s over. Draw a line under it and move on.

 

[Ash1337]

Dees still have time to move May.

 

[Bulldog Brent]

Buku trade live or dead?

 

[Selim]

Buku trade live or dead?

i think it will depend on curnow getting done early or not

 

[Pencil case]

Buku trade live or dead?

Waiting for the Curnow trade to go through for pick 31 to be available

 

[Marsy]

Trade Radio has gone on too long.

In the Buku trade, Curnow needs to happen first, Dogs want 31 and Dogs will send a future third back to Gold Coast (?)

No I didn't make any of that up.

 

[Selim]

13 mins to go i doubt we are using that pick 31 to get May lol

 

[Ash1337]

13 mins to go i doubt we are using that pick 31 to get May lol

Only if May comes with a future 1st.

 

[Struggle]

Zac Jones must be pulling his hair out stressing about this trade being left so late

I’d say we’ve dodged a bullet but that would just make Jamarra run straight back into the nightclub he just left.

 

[cherrypie]

Essendon wanting 4 1sts and a 2nd for Zach Merrett is insane lmao, what level of delusion is that club under

 

[Optimistic Dog]

Out of May, Frost and Jones. U think i would take Jones. Hope we give him a rookie contract for next season.

 

[W W Biscuit]

I've tuned into Trade Radio for the first time this year. What a circus.

 

[Marsy]

I guess asking for 4 1st round picks is one way to say no.

 

[weltschmerz]

Don't mind seeing a club insist on holding a contracted player to contract.

 

[Selim]

Don't mind seeing a club insist on holding a contracted player to contract.

the Merrett situation seems very cooked tho ngl

 

[The Inbetweener]

Don't mind seeing a club insist on holding a contracted player to contract.

I would have done the deal for 3 1sts personally but get what you are saying
