At this point surely we give up on saad as Essendon are difficult to deal with and throw the kitchen sink at Melbourne for Oliver

Offer pick 8 & 2021 future first for Oliver - adds class to the midfield and takes the pressure off Cripps each week

Offer lions 3rd pick for Alex witherden - perfect replacement for simo and uses the footy well from HB

Jon Ralph:

The Demons are keen to add to their midfield rather than dilute it and have rebuffed all interest in Clayton Oliver and Angus Brayshaw, also re-signing Jack Viney and ex-captain Nathan Jones.


Rebuffed all interest... Have they rebuffed all offers?
 
If the Saad deal does drag out and require mediation, surely that means it’s gone so late that it’s f***** Dodo’s plans with one or both of Dunkley and Caldwell.

Given their restrictions on trading/using 1sts, this might get very difficult to achieve otherwise. Caldwell maybe gets done for a F2 (and something?) if GWS cave, but it’s hard to see the Dunkley one getting through.

That’d be pretty funny. Dodo forcing it to mediation because he’s a stubborn prick who wants to have a big win every deal, then misses out on his own targets due to the deadline, even though possibly having the assets to make those trades after the conclusion of the period.

KohPhi seems as though Blueballs38 is after your title.
I suggest head over to the Thunderdome for a gif off.
 
Still shocked that no journo has run with the Oliver mail if it's true.
Melbourne won't entertain it if it's leaked. All parties going to great lengths to ensure this doesn't happen.

In fact even if a suitable deal can be reached, don't be surprised should we still see Oliver pull on a Melbourne guernsey and run out with his former teammates next year, as we anticipate this should safeguard against the media getting wind of it.

If I was an oppo club, in addition to all the very good and sensible reasons which exist for not picking up a player you haven’t spoken to, conducted a medical with etc... there’d be a big part of me that’happy to bypass Saad and let him through to Carlton just to stick it to Dodo.

There wouldn’t be many clubs not being held up in getting their own business done thanks to his intransigence. Some collective action might be in order. In fact I wouldn’t be surprised if there isn’t ongoing communication between certain clubs around holding the line on deals.

FWIW I think the deal gets done, but it’s unbelievable the competition grinds to halt because of one club.
Saad needs to be across what we’re doing
Would be fantastic to see dildo explain to his minders why saad walked for free and the others fell over due to his constant uncooperative dealing eventually clubs will join secretly to screw his nostrils if they ha don’t already
Go Austin u Beauty don’t flinch

But it’s already been leaked....otherwise we wouldn’t be discussing it :drunk:
 
Latest info:
Waiting on Ess to budge (which they will) and accept our offer of pick 8 and a future 3rd
Future 2nd back our way to be used for Fogarty.
Williams Saad Fogarty. Club happy to walk away Thursday night with that
Oliver 2021
Wht's with this rating of Fogarty. He has played like 10 games in 3 years. Surely a future 3rd or even a fourth gets it done. Not sure why hed be worth anything more than 2MPeter who just went for a fourth rounder.
 
im spending way too much time thinking about what Kemp will become. What do we have here? a bont? some strange Peter Dean / Wayne Johnston hybrid? we have no exposed form - just excitement, and it does impact on the way you think about the trade period, much more than the crowd who have underwhelmed thus far - Dow, LOB, Stocker, Cunningham, BamBam
Yeah I put a call out a couple of weeks ago about why all the excitement about Kemp. A guy that’s played zero games. But got no response. Why all the excitement ?
