Traded Jake Stringer [traded to Essendon]

Turbo made me laugh out loud. ******* perfect!

Lance Uppercut Sledges Pty Ltd. Licensing fee is reasonable.

If that deal is legit, it must include West Coasts 2018 1st for either the dogs 2nd or 3rd.

Is it possible that deal is actually a win all round? The only team I think might be a bit iffy are the Eagles, but it sounds like they're pretty set on wanting some 2nd rounders this year.

Possibly.. We may want them to pick up Kelly and Ryan before Freo get their mits on them.

West Australian kids?

Wait until the deal is done, little fella. Go and buy a Women's Day, there will be more truth in that than the shit some of these so called journalists come out with.

Peter, it is below the station of a club CEO to post on bigfooty.

And Brayshaw at 9.

 

[DapperDon]

Who needs WCE, Essendon and Dogs should just trade 9+Stringer for 25+30.

Cut out the middle man, Win Win

 

[Kaiser Powser]

And Brayshaw at 9.

This is what I am thinking.

If the player that WCE want will be available at 9 but not 13, it is extra incentive.

 

[Geary Is GOAT]

Seriously astounds me how many people were and are arguing that Stringer might just stay at the dogs in 2018.
Nothing. But. Talk. He has been absolutely gone the moment the bulldogs announced it. The dogs saying they might hold onto him was nothing but talk to try and have some cards in their favor. You'd have to be blind as a bat not to see that.

 

[AcuteWhistle]

Good stuff by jmac to save face here.

Throw a bunch of picks up in the air to make it look like something has happened.

I thought the Hawthorne trading last year was textbook nuts & we may shortly have a worthy companion.

Just keeping in touch with the average footy fan, buddy. I will go now and count my money.

Him saying “unlikely” and “I’m not going back” at the airport put a full stop.

If it’s 9+25+30 for 13 and next year’s first, that seems like a reasonable deal, especially if WC have identified who they want at those picks.

It says a swap of 2018 picks. So WCE will probably get a 2018 2nd or 3rd also.

 

[The_Reaper]

Yeah. Especially if West Coast believe that the guy we want will be around at 9 but not 13 and the Dogs believe that who they want at 9 might still be around at 13.

Fantastic deal for us. Could easily end up being a top 5 or 6 pick next year. Can't see why WCE would agree.

Blind as a bat or just a Doggies supporter.

The fact he needed to say "I'm not going back" for some to finally believe that is incredible.

Gets Whacked by Beveridge, gets whacked by Murphy, then everything comes out and people still thought he was staying? Straight up some people need to develop a bit of nuance.

Look there certainly were plenty of dogs supporters drinking the bath water but when its your player and your club thats to be expected a bit. but it wasn't just them. Couple of media personalities kept saying it and even early days in this thread other supporters saying he might stay. Can't believe how much of it i read.

If I had to guess, I’d say they have their eye on a couple of West Australian kids at 25 and 30 that probably won’t be there at their next pick and also what The_Reaper said above about pick 9.

Given your situation with West’s kids next year, would 9+25 and 30 for 13 and next year’s second be palatable ?

What's more incredible is that some still don't believe it after that.

****ing lol

The best part is that Dodo is sitting around twiddling his thumbs while the Dogs and Eagles bash it out while we land Stringer for two second round picks.. Magical

Doesn't really help. The idea would be to get a pick higher than Rhylees nomination pick and get him with our second. Hard to guess, but I would say he would go 10-15 from what I know.

 

[Red Black and Blue]

All in all it looks like both sides will be happy. We haven't given up too much and the Doggies are doing well to turn it their way. A lot of stress for nothing.
