I have to say after listening to TR today, not sure if we had overestimated SOS' nous or underestimated it. Hear me out.
Depending on how you look at it, he and Rendell are applying layer after layer to the blindfold on Dodo, and he's getting dangerously close to the cliff.
Dodo must be listening to all this stuff, or reading quotes of it, and thinking "yeah pick 8 is spot on, everyone agrees with me, they'll back down eventually", and I'm sure if he's talking to SOS directly he'd be hearing the same things. They've convinced everyone else of it, so it must be reasonable.
After Rendell admitted today he had just gotten off the phone from * media department if I was Austin I'd be jumping straight on the phone to Dodo.
"Dodo old mate, Nick here, I just heard that we're holding up the trade period for everyone. Geez mate I'm sorry, why didn't you tell me earlier? If this doesn't get sorted soon then you might not have enough time to get all the other deals done, you know, the players that committed to you publicly and the ones you assured you would get to *. In light of that, I've got a new offer for you. Yes we said pick 8 and a 3rd for Saad and your 2nd, but I think we can do better than that for you."
"Now it's 8 for Saad and your second, flat."
"You ****ed us last year Adrian, you held things up till the last minute and stopped a bunch of other deals going through. I'd suggest you run along back to your board and tell them the latest deal and see what they say, cause if it's a no, this year we're going in dry".
Admitting this has cost them any leverage they thought they had, the media seem to think that we are under pressure with all this, but if we aren't doing any further deals other than maybe Fogarty, we've got all the time in the world.
F*** em.
