Collingwood dodged a bullet here.

It's not like other clubs were going to offer anything more than a second rounder. The offer wasn't the reason they held him to his contract. It's because they couldn't get a replacement small forwardWants to move for 'family reasons' yet only wanted to go to the Bombers. Good stuff by GWS holding him to his contract.

Or you could just give a bit more to satisfy GWS to trade the guy you went out of your to get?At least now nobody can criticise Dodoro. They never wanted to trade him regardless of the club involved.
They didn't want another pick, they wanted a ready made small forward for their premiership tilt.Or you could just give a bit more to satisfy GWS to trade the guy you went out of your to get?
Yeah but the idea that the deal wasn't done because he only nominated Essendon is ridiculous when no one would have given more than a second rounder.Well that's only true to an extent. If you'd offered Parish they probably would have reconsidered their position.
They’re not specifically asking for an Essendon small forward in return. They just won’t let him go until they have secured a good enough small from somewhere. Which they’ve been given nowhere near enough time to do.Okay... I'm not sure if this is worth clarifying but let's give it a shot...
What I was saying was that, from the perspective of the club trying to trade Bobby Hill in, why would you go ahead with the deal, if the opposition club is demanding a player of the same calibre in the same role you're recruiting for (Hill)?
I mean it's clear that GWS is in their premiership window and won't settle for anything worse than an above average small forward to replace Hill right?
First of all, Bobby Hill reached out to us as confirmed by his manager.Or you could just give a bit more to satisfy GWS to trade the guy you went out of your to get?

He never was going to move when his management only had him going to the Bombers. Guarantee the deal gets done if there is a bidding war from Vic clubs on him. Not blaming Essendon either, it is dumb from Hill and his management.
This. His management of, or advice to, his clients has been poor. He should receive some type of reprimand against his accreditation.The one common denominator with pear shaped player negotiations with clubs is manager Colin Young. He’s a very ordinary conveyance.
Maybe they just don't want to trade him for anything less than a ridiculous offer?
Even the Victofootball pundits have suggested the Essendon offer is fair, not sure how the foamers will cope.
I think the problem is letting GWS know on Friday last week rather than nominating Essendon. Letting them know early gives them time to find a replacement given Greene is suspended for the first 5 weeks. His management certainly screwed that up.He never was going to move when his management only had him going to the Bombers.

Tough spot for Bobby, he wants be in Victoria to support his family. Won’t surprise me if he sits out of footy for a year and there are no winners from this…
