Speculation Jake Stringer - Trigger for 1 year with Essendon, exploring options

[Colonial]

Only because weve not offered him what he wanted

Before the offer he desperately wanted to stay

ok

If Shiel or Stone are not involved then I would say so.

If Shiel involved?

If Shiel involved?

We are also keen on Shiel … another pick in the 50s

That would be a successful trade period.

I agree with the earlier Bombers poster that Jake wouldn't look at GWS if he was extended to 2 years at Essendon. But it might just be that a change of cities and getting out of the limelight and media focus might do him some good.

I am not a huge fan of him, but pragmatically if he can add a new dimension to our forward line, then the trade might just be a win all round.

So pick 56 gets this done?

Is he contracted or does Stringer have the right to turn down his trigger?

If he’s uncontracted I can’t see it being more than that f

Reminds me of Steve Johnson's first year at GWS. Having to prove himself and getting on thinner ice gave him a bit of a shot in the arm IMO

If Kingsley thinks he make this work, happy to roll the dice. Let's face it Jake's list of coaches doesn't appear to have too many hard bastards in it. Macartney Bulldogs era= basket case, Rutten Bombers era= basketcase. It may be what he needs.

What does he need though? His output is better than half the league.

Says something then that it is still said he hasn’t reached his potential.

I think I speak for most bombers fans, Jake has been fun to watch the past 7 years but as a club we need to finally set standards on and off the field and Jake leaves with all of our goodwill and blessings, even for a token pick.

GWS are about as inoffensive of a rival club you can ask for to be trading with so will be a lot of fun watching Jake at GWS next year and I hope he thrives and the Giants get that first premiership.

So long my sweet Package, i'll miss you

 

[Bunk Moreland]

I’d want pick 37… perhaps Stringer and Sheil for 37

 

[Donflicted]

Since we dont make September GWS is always my finals team and most of there fans are also good to chat footy with

Lets hope this can help you guys tilt at a flag

all the best package
