No you wouldn't, if O'Meara states he only want to play for the hawks. No other club in there right mind would select a player that does not want to be there.
What's he gonna do? Sit out for a year? Quit the AFL and go work at Woolies?

O'Meara has met with us multiple times, did a medical with us, and we have enough in the cap to give him his 600k a year. Just because you want the 10/10 prom queen doesn't mean you wouldn't settle for the 8/10 cheerleader.

Carlton did with Nick Stevens and he gave them great service.
Jaeger isn't going to sit 2 years out of footy
 
they sent Bennell to Freo for a late second rounder and a 6 pick upgrade from early 2nd to late first.
They have a top 3 kid in Bowes coming in, plus pick 8, likely pick 6, and will snare some good talent in the 2nd round.
they can afford to make a stand.
Ha i bet as a bombers supporter you are hoping they take a stand
 
What sort of magical land do you think mediation is?
They don't have any power to force a trade.
It enables a conduit whereby Cochrane is removed from a process he shouldn't have any influence on the first place, and allows Ashcroft come to a reasonable solution and the reasonable explanation that the eventual deal was helped agreed to with the AFL involvement.
No magic just allows some face saving... or maybe not who knows at this stage.



And herein lies the problem. Pick 10 and a fringe player probably overs? On what planet?
Yes, he has injury concerns. Your medical dept is obviously pretty confident given the money/deal on offer.

Trade will still get done in the end.
On this planet. Which one did you have in mind?
 
Because he had only played more than 7 games in a season once in his 7 years on the list?
Had a much longer history of injuries (also a few years older...). Gumby never showed the signs that Jaegar has.

FWIW we got Orazio Fantasia with the pick Freo gave us, no complaints here.
Yeah so you took a lower pick for a player who has a history of injuries. hmmmm sound familiar?

If the bombers had 600k to offer O'Meara then hibbered would still be there rather than trying to go to the dees.
Add on james Stewart salary can't see it happening
 
Gonna be pretty funny if a trade can't be worked out and O'Meara gets to the hawks in the PSD.
All this talk of other clubs taking him before the hawks is just as amusing especially when no other club has had talks with the gold coast for a trade. If O'Meara goes to the PSD and states he only want to play for the hawks that's where he will end up. It would be the exact same situation with any other club who had a player nominate them as well.

Amusing that you think a club that he did a medical with wouldn't pick him in the PSD.

Even if O'Meara went in the ND he would still get to the hawks.
That scenario leaves the hawks better placed due to the fact they would have to use first round pick this year and next year could potentially trade future 2018 picks.

It would be irresponsible for him not to check out a few clubs, medicos, facilities etc
Turns out the bombers didn't cut the mustard for O'Meara. Otherwise we would be hearing more about potential trades and even his manager leaving open or hinting at the opportunity to play elsewhere next year other than hawks could be a real possibility. But still we keep hearing he only want to play for the hawks.
 
I find a certain irony in Essendon offering to broker a deal while they persist in playing chicken over possibly the simplest trade of 2016.

Yes, cause it's one teams fault in a trade between two parties....

Nick Stevens said the same thing about Collingwood......

Though I think he'll end up at Hawthorn.
 
Well yeah Richmond and Carlton will most likely trade out of the top 10.
making it even more likely he lands at 10 to the Hawks.

North would hand over an old guy and 11 in a heartbeat for pick 8.

Gc would also do it in a heartbeat if it meant forcing the hawks back to finding them a suitable player to go along with pick 10.

I think you will need to admit that the insurance you bought with getting pick 10..
Well it's not exactly bulletproof cover.

Certainly not insurance worth 'selling the farm' over which one hawks fan just described the price tag as
 
If no deal is done, JOM will nominate for the ND with a big price on his head.

Apart from maybe Carlton at pick 5 (assuming it doesn't end up at GWS) I don't see a club with the will and cap space to take him.

That was the PSD where it cost Carlton nothing. If OMeara selects National Draft no way in hell Essendon uses pick 1 on him.

Cochrane has no say in the negotiations, he's just the face of the club.

Presidents have no power? Dont tell Eddie, why, he would go all red face at you and then... well nothing I guess.

What president has power over list management? That's not their job.
