Henry will use one or even maybe two later ones. He also said they will try and get up the order which would require packaging a couple up.

Look I agree with you, just not sure why we are doing the dogs an unrequired favour with 55

Just on this, doing the opposite of the Dodo and actually building relationships with others for future benefit, since realistically if you're cannibalising at that stage, who cares about a delay if it puts you in better view for a future offer?

So on something like that where both sides are like "yeah maybe a late 2nd/3rd?" you wriggle to future potential.

If it's Essendon and Freo to a lesser extent though, you just let them drive, have a coffee, do other things and wait for them to recognise what day of the week it is as it's speaking to wall time, so why bother building that relationship?
 
Paperwork lodged in the final minutes for a FA. Dodo wouldn’t have it any other way. Absolute peanut.
The thing about narcissism is that they want to be the centre of a drama, psychologists call it :supply", they really don't care what the drama is, they just want to harvest the emotional reaction that they are creating.

Like clockwork every year - Essendon hold up trades by Dodoro grandstanding.

I don't know how Bombers supporters imagine that it serves them either -It's not like they get the trades done.
It's all about Dildo and whatever Freudian catastrophe occurred in his youth.

Not sure can keep Gresh and have Dow and Henry without compromising out draft hand more than the Club would like, given their consistent claims we are "going to the draft"

Club can spout all it likes "Gresh has a great relationship with RTB" but I think it would prefer to have a better relationship with 2 x first round picks.

Are you still dreaming about pick 13 ?
 
This dildo campaigner is ******* our whole trade period.
No I think we’ve xxxxxx our whole trade period. This might be the most st Kilda trade period ever, it‘s mind boggling what goes on at this club. We talk down the players we want to trade to the point where they have little value then act surprised when other clubs don’t offer us overs for players we don’t want.

The thought of paying over for Henry who I’m not even interested in fills me with dread, if we must have him at least get him cheap. So let’s just wait and see who stares down who, if I was a betting man my money would be on us blinking first.

Would love to make bespoke furniture with the leather, bones and sinew of Dodoro. I’m thinking matching dining chairs.


That would really finish off the dungeon room.
 
I doubt Richmond trading away one extra play was what got the 3 flags though.


Yeah our issue is that we failed to draft quality players at anything like the industry standard for a really long time. You can trade out spare players if you have too many good one. If you can't even put together a best 22 that is competitive it's hard to unload anything without falling backwards.
 
Because I am bored at work and nothing is happening, I thought I would have a crack at a move script. Its called:
Adrian Dodoro – The movie (Feedback welcome)

(Joe Daniher) “Hello Jade. Welcome to the bi-annual meeting of the Essendon trade request survivors club. I am the captain. You can either sit over with Josh Dunkley and Nate Caddy in the big bodied mids corner, or with Bobby Hill and Orazio Fantasia in the small forwards club”

(Jade Gresham) “Thanks Joe. I feel most comfortable with Raz and Bobby as I also don’t tackle”

(Joe Daniher) “Great. We will get started as soon as Paddy Ryder arrives”

Stuart Crameri looks up from the snack bar with a handful of an unknown substance

(Stuart Crameri) “I want to sponsor Zaine Duursma as a provisional member too”

(Joe Daniher) “Do we have a second”

(Dylan Shiel) “I second that. He can join me and Jade in the ‘first-rounder that looked good for a while but never really achieved much’ society”

There is a knock at the door and Bredon Goddard enters

(Brendon Goddard) “Im looking for Jade Gresham

(Joe Daniher) “How many times do I have to tell you that you cant come in. Now go sit outside next to Ben McKay and wait for us to finish”

(Brendan Goddard) “I don’t want to. Its boring out there and Stringer keeps hitting on the 16yo receptionist”

(Joe Daniher) “Relax, thats Jakes girlfriend not the receptionist. Anyway, Goldy will be by after he is done bonking the real receptionist to sing a song he wrote. Its called ‘I will never play finals again’”

(Brendon Goddard) “Oooo if its as good as ‘7000 days’ then I cant wait”

(Joe Daniher) “Just get out Brendan. Now first order of business, Jade’s membership. Where is the paperwork?”

(Dylan Shiel) “Dankys over there in the corner shredding it”

(Joe Daniher) “Perfect. Now lets get started”

Nick Hind raises his hand to ask a question

(Joe Daniher) “Who the f**k are you?”

(Nick Hind) “Im the guy Adrian got to replace Adam Saad running really fast and turning the ball over at half back all the time”

(Joe Daniher) “You are Conner McKenna?”

(Nick Hind) “Nah he f**ked off back to Ireland and took a year off as it was easier than asking for a trade”

(Jade Gresham) “That idea sounds really appealing about now”

(Nick Hind) “Hey didn’t we play together at the saints”

(Jade Gresham) “Who the f**k are you?”

The footy media landscape needs a big clean out. There are too many idiots who have mates and buddies inside the industry.

The days of fierce independent and informed analysis, when it comes to football journalism, is almost dead. Alf Brown, Ron Carter, Scot Palmer, Patrick Smith, Peter MacFarlane, Mike Sheahan, Rob Astbury, Emma Quayle (in recent times). Great journalists.

With the exception of Jake Niall, Tony Jones and Greg Baum there are very few left. Blokes like Tom Morris are fair dinkum lightweights. They break the odd story but their analysis is woeful and they are conflicted with various friendship and alliances.

Then we get to the next level down again. People Jay Clark. Vassals for vested interests, like that Dodoro dictated article about walking Gresham to the PSD. It’s embarrassing.
Add Martin Flanagan to the list of great journos of the very recent past, although his focus was more n the humanist side of the sport.

Very different breed of footy journalist nowadays, they just want human twitter feeds now, only newsbreakers no room for any newsmakers, anyone semi-literate will do, even the sub editors can't be bothered correcting embarrassing typos because they've conceded that most of the footy public don't notice or care. In the age of social media where most content comes from people who vaguely hear their native language but rarely read it, what is one to expect?
 
Some positive news re Tim Membrey from an ITK Tony74 on SS -

"The word is he wants to be back and playing."
