No way! If JOM is fit, he's as good as Bont, Cripps, Heeney etc on exposed form.What did they promise him? When was that made?
If GCS refuse every offer then that isnt Hawthorn's fault - given pretty much everyone thinks GCS are demanding too much.
That's not ahead of pick 1 in the PSD
His exposed form is half a game in the NEAFL and then going in for a another knee clean up.No way! If JOM is fit, he's as good as Bont, Cripps, Heeney etc on exposed form.
since you guys are chasing him and offering him big bucks on a long contract, you think he's fit. Therefore he is worth the asking price.

North Melbourne gave up those two picks, along with Ryan Bastinac and a 2016's pick 51 for picks 17 and 26.
So assuming 15 and 17 basically cancel out, NM gave up Ryan Bastinac and got pick 26 and Jed Anderson, using your logic. Not a bad effort.
But the points! No, the points are a somewhat handy shorthand. The extra picks are the real value, and ignoring them is just being blindly ignoring how trades work.
So you just want to ignore the parts of the trade that make your arguement dumb?
I didn't say anything about points.
I said north got a 2nd round pick and a 3rd pick upgrade as well as anderson.
Steak knives would be if it was just the pick upgrade.
A 2nd round pick is not a steak knife.
That's a steak
Yes it is. National Draft occurs before the PSD.
Essendon have made an offer to Gold Coast.
we said that with Caddy. apparently we were unreasonable and hard to deal withIt's probably why the AFL is getting involved as a mediator, logically the way they're acting is mind boggling
Not their problem. If your players don't want to go to GC, find a club they are willing to go to and get a good trade there.
I'm sure some clubs would have paid good trade value for a player like Shiels, or someone would have given you a suitable pick for Breust. It didn't have to be GC. Or don't take Tom Mitchell and you could have given them two first rounders.
No-one forced you to get Tom Mitchell as well. But you got greedy, and now somehow it's GC fault because you can't afford both?
I'm not bitter about Tom, players move, that's fine. But Hawks seem to think you can have everyone, even if you can't afford them.
If he goes to psd Draft he may put as much as 1.5 mill on his head for next year.
which I now believe we have after Mitchell,Lewis and Hill leaving no one else can pay that and use 10 on best young player we can get risky strategy but I can't see a trade being done under the circumstances at the moment.
unless there is a change of mind
We have no players who want to go to GC and they want a lot more than 10.
Can see this ending in a nil all draw unfortunately
If the system was like that I'd agree with you sadly it's not a trade without consent system so hawthorn has the right to pay him what is a reasonable priceConsidering what Essendon are willing to pay, are they? Does that not set a market value?
You have 1.5mio after getting Vickery and T Mitchell? Lol. How much were S Mitchell and Lewis on? A mill each?If he goes to psd Draft he may put as much as 1.5 mill on his head for next year.

Well that's just , like, your opinion man.Complete rubbish.
No way in hell anyone would offer the same for JOM as those 3.
Essendon would use pick 1 on any of those. Never even consider using it on JOM.
At least be sensible and say Whitfield... given his unknowns.
The mediation process had no powers of arbitration though.Mediation is not something you pass, it is just a third party trying to reach a deal with both. You might be thinking of arbitration.
He's our Bont, you may feel differently if the offer was for himOutside looking in, GC expecting too much for JOM
Oh yeh if GC has the nuts to do that then I'd rather it be a system like that. But under this paradigm where players demand to go places Hawthorns in a very respectable and fair ballpark and GC is carrying on a bitIf another club in the same city is offering more in terms of return for the Suns, why shouldn't they be able to trade him there? He has no right to request where he should go, hasn't reached free agency...

Nah Bont played really well this year and last. JOM couldn't get on the park.He's our Bont, you may feel differently if the offer was for him
