Will we fold and take a cr@p deal like 8 and Hurley and then say “we had to move Josh on he wanted to leave blah blah blah?”

Think he means Roos pick 11. No way Pies give away Stephenson and a pick in the 8-14 range for pick 11.

Carlton are idiots, didn’t SOS leave? Pick 8 for an out of contract running defender who is hardly irreplaceable.....

People can hang shit on them, but Dodo does get the trades done (based on what they aim for)

Big unders I reckon. Ports future second will be in the 30s, they could've pushed for more especially since he's contracted another year. Sydney's spine is shocking

Grundy was a genuine gun ruckman by the age of 22.
English is still getting beaten every week at 23. Not just beaten either, absolutely smashed. He's not even competitive in the ruck contests against career crabs like Rhys Stanley.
By the way, as much as I'm ragging on recruiting an old fart like Martin, I actually don't doubt our recruiting for the most part. I think they've done a great job for several years and have built a fine list.
Beveridge on the other hand...

They weren’t willing to give him a long term deal. Port offered three years with a fourth year being met by a games played trigger apparently.

I don't get why we weren't in the discussions with Alir Alir he seems like the perfect player for Bevo

He's shocking one on one, so I can understand not wanting to grab him as a defender. Ordinarily I would agree with you, and he does seem the type Bevo likes, but I don't think our side would improve with Aliir purely because of the types we already have. He'll be good at Port
I must be out of step with the modern game and the importance of line breakers ( with less than elite disposal imo) but pick 8 for a hbf ???????????

Curious, why we showed no interest in Aliir Aliir? He can fill the KPD position we're after and can help ruck as well, right? two birds one stone
Too obvious. We like to get creative.

8 for Saad and peanuts is terrible from the Blues.

Listening the the port head of footy this morning, he was pretty clear that they’d had enough of Essendon and were just going to pull the trigger on the aliir deal.
He also confirmed they don’t have any current players they’re moving out, so the picks they have now is all they’ve got to offer the bombers.
Fun times
