Amazing what happens when he is not tired playing midfield minutes.

Yep. Much rather a low disposal high impact game like today giving us some X factor up forward than a few bursts in the middle. If we need more midfield grunt bring setterfield in etc

Hope it is only a one year deal but I reckon he gets two.

You don't get to coast with one year deals, ideal for Essendon
Did like his game on the weekend

1 year deal or walk.
gap between his best and worst is far too large.

They went sitters but should have kicked at least 2 of them.

I feel like he would have signed on already if he was staying? To me this is just done and dusted almost
Stringer to Carlton on a 2 year deal on lowish money. Stringers number 1 strength is when he gets the 3rd small defender and can go body to body with him. A situation he gets every single week at Carlton. He gets the perfect playing situation for himself and Carlton get a best 22 player for free

On form, he deserves at least 2 years. 40 goal forward/ mids are hard to come by.
But personally I hope he gets poached from Essendon so it actually starts a proper rebuild. Stringer is pretty hard to replace and we ain’t finishing higher without him.
I’d personally look to trade Langford parish 2mp too and hit the draft hard.

You can't kick goals when you're unconscious.
Dear god please no.
How does Carlton get him for free?
He isnt a free agent.
A trade is needed.
I could see him going to North. They need help for Larkey. Comden is the 200cm target and Stringer the third tall forward.
Norths are still not attractive for top player trades. But I bet they could land Stinger.
Problem is he is a good player but lacks professionalism getting and staying fit. That isnt a great role model around a young developing squad. Would need to be a rock sokid commitment from him to get fit with contract clauses covering what happens if he slacks off and takes the p!ss and the money.

Not worth a 5th rounder draft pick. Essendon should just payout his contract

Think too many buy the media hype of this guy being this and that . If you ignore his visual appearance and look at stats he would be wanted by half a dozen clubs
When he gets the right match up he can certainly play
But it's too few and far between now and his body language sometimes isn't great.
Fair comparison

Body language is a media word. Means nothing in real life. What matters is stats and performance
He kicked 40 goals this year. If you can get a 40 goal per year forward who can also contribute small bursts in the midfield, you should be all over that if you are a contender or wanting to be
More about sulking, not putting in for the team
Ask Essendon supporters how they saw his game for them last week.
On the midfield, wholly agree. I remember one game v Geelong last year they put him through the midfield for small periods of play and he was extremely effective
He may not have the tank to play that role any more

He scored 40 goals, he put in for the team. Someone’s facial expressions isn’t that important to their worth in my opinion
Perhaps your team should put their hand up and grab him
Be well received I'm sure by Eagles fans

We have too many forwards
Fremantle on the other hand should be all over this one.
