Traded Adam Saad [traded to Carlton with #48 and #78 for #8 and #87]

[Blue Pride]

Because football clubs aren't children. They're professional sporting organisations -I can't imagine something like that going down well with the rest of the competition (Regardless of who was doing it).
Sure, if a team wants more than you're willing to pay there are other options, but using the exact pick you refused to trade? Madness.
Also would not believe a word that Sam Edmund says.

Fwiw no I don't think he's worth 8 in a straight swap, and would be more than happy giving back 48 (I'd expect us to have to give back a 2nd).

That’s ok, I wouldn’t expect it to happen like that either. There needs to be give and take from both sides.

I suspect Dodoro is a bit of a showman and has a quiet laugh when he asks for the ludicrous, the problem is when people start to believe it.

 

[Brutalitops]

Sam Edmund saying Carlton have offered pick 8 for Saad & pick 48 and Dodoro has said no. Lulz.

Ive been against it but its time to end negotiations and start preparing for the draft. Rather not indulge the lunatic's flights of fancy any further.

Based on the made up word of a sports "journalist"
I genuinely worry for some of you.

Blues ^ is what you're dealing with. You know what needs to be done.

Let's hope Adelaide take Caldwell in that case! Run the risk of the PSD, accept the consequences.

 

[EssendonPride]

How do you know its made up? Saad wouldnt be the first halfback flanker Dodoro has walked to the draft

Have you not listened to the other crap Edmund was spouting at the same time? It doesn't make any sense. They know exactly what the masses like to hear, and you guys treat it as gospel. Absolutely eat it up.
Dodoro comes out yesterday and says talks are going well with GWS, now all of a sudden we're walking him to the PSD as well. Any sane person knows he'd never last to us in the PSD. It's make-believe.

I didn't say either of those statements.

I simply asked if you want to bet on it happening. If the answer is no that's fine.

or if essendon play hard ball, we can have saad nominate for the main draft and we take him with pick 8 and essendon get nothing

Serious questions for blues fans, how long can you pay 105% of the cap for? Is it 3 years? Assuming you have been 95% for last 3 years?

 

[BlueDay]

Wanna bet?

I would love nothing more than Essendon using pick 7 in the ND to spite Carlton. Effectively seeing Daniher gone and Saad returned against his will, returning you nothing. We use pick eight on a great kid and we are done.

[windows1]

Haha Dodoro must read BF and feels 'challenged' by Blues supporters that a straight swap of 8 for Saad wont happen.. he's a cheeky f***er.. lol

He is just a really poor list manager with a poor record. His teams never win finals. Ever. And won’t for years ahead. He’s a scourge on your club.

But you go ahead keep on calling him cheeky.

wanna bet ur side is bottom 4 next year? cause im happy to. Wanna bet dodo gets the arse? cause im happy to. Wanna bet that you dont get dunkley? cause im happy to. If you wanna act like a tosser happy to be one right back

I think we'll be bottom 4, I've been asking for Dodoro to go for quite awhile now and I'm sceptical on Dunkley because we don't have the assets required.

Was there a point to your rant?

 

[tombomb]

Is this all media spin? On what planet is Saad worth pick 8? Surely Carlton aren't this dumb?

Apart from him being contracted till 2024. Good luck.

Whatever you save from TPP in any given year expires at the third year.

 

[numbat06]

Considering he's uncontracted and Essendon got him off GC for a pick in the late 20s I don't think they should be asking for the kitchen sink.

 

[boncer34]

So your happy to bet Carlton get him through the draft like you stated they would earlier?
