Past 43. Will Setterfield - Traded to Essendon*

[BlueSuede]

It's sad but something we need to get used to over the next few seasons, improvement of the team and squad means fringe players will leave for opportunities - the tables are turning

This is pretty much it. All the best to setters - can't blame him for looking elsewhere, as he seriously looked on the outer for us for two years now.

I think we will see such things in the future. I hope we bargain a little harder though

So disappointing.

Can't help but feel like the whole Setterfield experience has been a waste of time which started off so promisingly.

Whilst Setters is probably more culpable, Teague absolutely did him no favours.

 

[Sinjin Smith]

All aspects of this is so disappointing for me. Had so much hope in his potential when we first got him, I was really excited. I still think we need him for depth and to lose him................for a packet of chips.....................to the scum......................very deflating.

not sure we saw the best of him but we're stacked where he likes to play. can't rarely play him, or in the wrong spot when he does then expect him to hang around. be interesting to see how he goes, probably rack up lots of footy at essendon.

At the end of the day it was like Setters was a delisted free agent, nothing gained from the trade just our mob losing some depth from our list.

 

[Premiership Quarter]

Gave him up for free 4th for a 4th

 

[BlueGum]

Thanks Will. All the best. Hope you get the responsibility you are after.

 

[TENACIOUS]

Will who?

 

[Ash05]

Another trade with Essendon that Essendon have easily won

 

[goreds]

Will who?

 

[Kernafides]

Hope the injury curse is kind to our mids... minimal depth

 

[Aphrodite]

Will who?

Charming!

Sarcasm I hope...?

 

[Mentallo]

Lets hope * continue to play him on the Wing.

 

[Ash05]

Sarcasm I hope...?

Nope.

Should have just delisted him

 

[FilthyRon]

I think this is fine. Got rid of a pick and a player we don't need for a pick we might be able to play around with next year or not. No biggy.

 

[TENACIOUS]

Charming!

I know, I know...
Just can't support any * player...

Vossy wasn't wrong saying "some people will not like what's happening this trade period" first Stocker now Setterfield let's hope Austin and Co know what they are doing?

All the best Will but I hope you don't play too well when we play you.

There’s easily about 600k in wages shifted to best 22 players….

'Won'? Yeah, real high stakes that one.
I think we improve our pick and we get him off our books, with Will getting a new contract. A reasonable outcome for all.

Put Setters in the rear view mirror
Let's get serious over the next few days and get some more top 30 picks

I think draft night is much more likely (and prudent).
