More so at those who say pick 5 wont be involved at all.

Unless the bombers have a 3rd party interested in jake who will offer a 1st rd pick why would the saints part with pick 5?

A very, very good question. Just "because", apparently!

Even if another club did it wouldn't necessarily matter if Jake has nominated us and isn't willing to go to that club. Just like last year when GWS apparently offered Essendon pick 4 for Ryder. If he nominates a club, as expected, it won't be an auction.

Ha no it wont

Taking unders for the 3rd year in a row for a key player would not 'work for us'
It will probably have to, unless you prefer losing him for nothing, which is the next most likely option.

If you let someone that has trade value get OOC then you almost always get "unders". It's why it's imperative to ensure you have them all signed up before it gets to that stage.
 
Carlisle has a WADA case hanging over his head and Yarran doesn't.
See earlier point. If WADA was a serious factor clubs wouldn't even entertain the notion.

There are a fair few similarities between them actually. Both have a lot of natural ability and some very attractive physical attributes, and as such they both have high "ceilings", but neither of them have performed consistently well throughout their careers so far (at least 6 seasons each in the system) and especially of late, and both have questionmarks on their attitude/character/mental toughness, etc, that would cause some clubs to not be interested in them.

Carlisle is a "KPP", so he has greater overall value, but as stated, Yarran is contracted, which counteracts that to a degree.

As i said it probably will but ita not something wed be singing and dancing about thats for sure.

I hope like he hell he nominates hawks or stkilda or someone else over Carlton.

Yarran and pick 19 Carlton fans?

Correct - if Carlton recruit him and Carlisle is forced to sit out for two years - Essendon will need to pay his $750k pay packet for two years as loss of potential income.

Yarran is contracted don't have to trade him. The club will try to find him a club but under no obligation to trade him.

Carlisle has walked out.
 
3 WAY TRADE but not really

Ess Lose: Carlisle
Ess Gain: Pick 12 (Rich)

Carl Lose: Yarran and pick 21
Carl Gain: Carlisle and pick 33 (Rich 2nd round)

Rich Lose: Pick 12 and 33
Rich Gain: Yarran and pick 19 (Carlton)

Carlton lose big time - whilst Richmond and Essendon profit - you must think the world that evolve around you is made up of dummies.

Carlton win that by a mile. Richmond are the big losers of that deal.
 
We lose Yarran + pick 21 for Carlisle.

Pick 33 in this draft is useless no need to get it involved because it will be straight out rejected.

Yarran is premium pick
Henderson has Gold Coast lurking in PSD

SO if Geelong really want him they will need to give up something decent.
Gold Coast also want Yarran

Richmond is going to miss out on Yarran guaranteed.

You lose an okay pick and a shit player for a gun and an okay pick.

In what world is that a loss?
 
Calling Yarran a shit player is pitiful in the spirit of discussion actually.
Calling a shit player a shit player is pitiful now?
