Free Agent # 6: Joe Daniher (part 1)

[TheGreatBarryB]

What’s he waiting for then? Tell the club. Very odd.

 

[the PILL]

Tom brown quickly becoming the new purple

He's actually worse than purple in a sense that he just blatantly makes shit up. Purple squeezes, bends, twists tiny facts about for maximum impact but ol Squissy Jowls Brown seems to fabricate a lot of stuff in the hope he jags something...

 

[Matthew_Lloyd]

Ehh whatever. If he doesn't want to be here, then trade him and get good compensation. No point keeping him around if he wants to go to Sydney.

 

[HirdsTheWord]

What’s he waiting for then? Tell the club. Very odd.

Doing more harm to himself by waiting I reckon....needs to just say what he wants

 

[ILikeCheese]

Probably just waiting for the Crichton to be over with, then bombs away!
This will set us back years

 

[vast]

I wonder just how much Sydney are offering.

 

[vast]

Our last Joey highlight?

 

[yodellinhank]

He's running, so that's good news.

 

[Andronicus]

We really need to stop stressing about players being uncontracted at the end of the year.

Doesn't seem to mean much whether they are contracted or not.

 

[Westlo]

Sydney - We're only going to give you a third round pick because there's no guarentee he'll ever get back to what he was, is a massive risk for us
Dodo - okay..... what contract are you going to give him?
Sydney - 7 years, a million per year.
Sydney - Anyway we're taking the risk so take the 3rd round pick and stop being hard to deal with
Sydney - hello? hello?

Media - Essendon being hard to deal with yet again.

 

[MiguelM]

Got a feeling we will play hardball. Lot of water to go under the bridge yet.

Syd may get cold feet if the asking price is too high, I mean he has hardly been on the park for 2 years.

Lloyd and Caro both saying that sources close to Joe are saying he will be at Sydney next year.

They said he is unhappy with the medical team and the amount of coaches he has had while at the bombers. Is he annoyed with the succession plan? Didnt bother him when he got big money last time though lol

Lloyd added that we wont let him go for less than 2 top 10 picks this year.

2 top 10's. Llyody putting in some early groundwork for negotiations.

Well the way he put it suggested that we were more than happy to keep him for next year if we dont get that. Which is what I hope the club does.

 

[eDPS]

Lloyd’s take

 

[citizen-erased]

While this is probably true, I'll believe it when it comes from a more reputable source.

Tom Browne's other big "news" today was North's alleged offer to Tom Papley being 800-900K per.

Tom Papley's dad then got on twitter to call it "made up bulls**t journalism"....

View attachment 752666

see the failure here is he didn't get his good mates to go "sources close"

lacks legitimacy without that.

Yeah i agree we should keep him and back ourselves to get him on the park. The club would be well aware this is most likely our best option as well. If he has a good year he may decide to stay after all. If he wants to go as free agent and we choose not to match next year then we get pick 12ish anyway via compo. Really easy one for dodo.

 

[Old Stuckup]

Joe and 30 for Pick 5 and 8 (from North via Papley). If they say no we keep him for a year and back ourselves to get him right. Worst comes to worse we get say Pick 10 back for him.

 

[Bjchan13]

Lloyd’s take

Nice one Llyody, love your work

 

[Arctic fox]

JD not happy with Medical Team? Doesn't make sense. We know what the medical problem is, its up to the strength and conditioning mob with physios and performance team to fix the medical problem. Maybe he was referring to J.Crow before he was let go.

 

[gdaytiger2001]

Surely this opens up a nice little stash in our salary cap. Finally something to excited about for the offseason.

Imagine if that is another Parish and Francis...

 

[Bunk Moreland]

Brown - Daniher - Tipungwuti
Stringer - McKernan - Fantasia

I just knew it was never going to happen. It was destined never to happen.

 

[Jobe Watson]

You reckon? An entire summer to dwell on the fact that we'll probably be heading in to season 2020 with McKernan and Mitch ****ing Brown as our two best tall forwards...

 

[justlookingaround]

We’re a bit ****ed here hey
