Goddard to the Dons....

[_Mike_]

Just reported on Ch7, Essendon has offered Goddard around $750K a year for 4 years. St.Kilda has 3 days to match or better the offer under the restricted free agency.

Will Goddard troll the Saints and go through with it ending up with the Bummers, or will Goddard be held back by the child fiddlers for another 3-4 years of contraversy and shameful pictures of Zac looking and Nick's dick?

 

[Black Flag]

will match. easy.

[Ruddeger07]

Does he get to choose if he'll suffer calf or hamstring injuries next year if he joins the Bummers ?

 

[Murraj1966]

Well either option is better than Failscray where he'd have no chance of success.

 

[PottSie2]

I don't get it, this screams that Essendon are pushing for a Premiership in the next 2 years (let's face it, thats all Goddard has left) by plugging a specific gap, but their record and form line suggest they will remain mid level plodders until another rebuild.

Is this just another membership ploy by their leaders like Hirdy coaching for memberships instead of success ?

Stay on topic flog, if that is possible for you at all

It's a done deal. And he does fill a role for us. And we will win a Premiership REAL soon now. We de-railed this year through injury but the time is coming. 17 is soon.

(Also wait till you see who else we get!)

As opposed to the success-ridden halls of seaford?

Pretty sure you both have the same amount of premierships.

Pretty sure they have a better win/loss ratio in grand finals.

I'm not sure how you figure that, unless you're talking about spoons in which case you're a clear winner.

 

[Ron]

He sure as hell isn't worth 750k. Where will the Bombers play him? He can't play as a midfielder, he has shown that already in his career. His best spot is loose in the backline, but Fletcher, Heppell and Stanton already play the seagull role, so Goddard will have to find a new role.

 

[blured]

thats one expensive seagull

Its hard to work out whos getting trolled.....St Kilda or Essendon

Pretty sure making a Grand Final is better than not

Pretty sure we've beaten them every time since 2008

Pretty sure they haven't made a Grand Final since 1961

Pretty sure you're a flog.

What role does he fill ?

Who else .. hmmm, what other past their prime players looking for a retirement plan are on the market ?

750k. The aints would be mad to pay that. You guys are getting Rick Rolled something chronic.

 

[The Captain]

Saints can't match

How will they be able to afford to resign Kosi?

Get back on topic... Do you thing Goddard will stay or go.. The word is hard on Goddard leaving for Essendon and to keep him, St.Kilda would have to match it or better the offer, but who would they turf in favour of keeping Goddard (salary cap constraints)

 

[emblurr]

I can read between the lines here. Lot of people in fear as they foresee Watson and Goddard carving up their midfield.

they cant afford to pay their salary cap, let alone just remain within it.

 

[JustaBattler]

hahahahahahahah- great news for St Kilda

 

[tasmanlvr]

So long as you don't play us in a Grand Final, you'll be fine.

In the meantime, good move to get Goddard.

 

[Falchoon]

will match. easy.

no chance, hasn't played 750k football for more than 2 years and certainly won't be in 4 years time.

Would like to keep him but you have to be realistic, Essendon are paying for the name.

 

[emblurr]

We know how Essendon playing Melbourne in a grand final ends up..

another oversized plodding midfielder at Essendon doesn't scare us, we're thankful though he didn't end up somewhere like Richmond where his skills would have suited much better.

 

[emblurr]

ooh yeah... i know what your saying another smart midfielder with mad kicking and handball skills.

I heard Hayes borrowed Watson's second heart for the season. Watson didn't need it because his first was so flipping huge!
