Recruiting Trade & Free Agency VII

[Lore]

We can't trade our first without bringing another first in.

Don’t feed the troll people

Don’t feed the troll people

but they'll go hungry....that's quite cruel

 

[jordanl]

Yes let’s trade Heppell .... dear god haha
If we lost Daniher I would trade pick 5 and a 2nd round for Tex walker and bring in josh Jenkins. There is no way they can’t get back to their 2017 form and already have synergy between them. Texs leadership would be handy too

 

[blitzer]

Outside of all the Daniher stuff - it would be nice if we brought in a good backup ruck option.

I don't want any of Adelaide's bad juju in our club.

 

[Fin ice Smuggler]

How about 3 way trade
Swans give up pick 5 and mills get Daniher
Dees give up Oliver but get their man they bid on in Mills
Essendon gets Oliver and pick 5?

Oh the dreams....

 

[Call Me Cake]

OUT: Daniher
IN: Lamb HSP with cheese & garlic/bbq sauce

So, boring day with trading. Can't believe Dodo failed his Google searching so badly that he would confuse King Phillip, Prince Andrew, Ben King and Andrew Phillips. Utter moron. Get it right, Dodo.

Maybe saw too many other posts calling BZT Margaret. Urgh.

The swans would realise the only chance they have of getting daniher is two picks in the top 10, they are waiting on 9 for papely and it gives them more cap space to put joe on a buddy style deal.

Pick 5 and 9 anyone would be happy with, especially when joe hasnt been on the park for 2 years hardly.

As i stated heppell is not in your best mids, and he is behind, redman, saad, mckenna and gleeson as running backs. The hawks gave up hodge, mitchell and lewis and thats working out ok.

The suns would love heppells leadership and they would still get two top 10 picks.

I reckon jenkins output would be the equal to daniher and he can ruck.

Bonar is cherry ripe for pick 30 and adds a bit of grunt to the run and carry that makes essendon when on song as a neutral supporter the best team to watch, with mckenna, saad, shiel, mcgrath, parish, tippa and orazio so different too everyone else

Perfect, you just get over to the swans, suns and crows boards and make it happen. I'll time you.

Phillips and Cutler will be in the red n black take it to the bank

i dont know why i'm excited by this, but i am.

 

[Keystone agony]

i dont know why i'm excited by this, but i am.

I'm happy enough

Fill 2 holes and id assume we're giving away SFA for both. No lose situation only upside

Phillips was solid as a sole ruck

Cutler was excellent in 2018 before being written off before the season even started in 2019 by Fagan

 

[ghostdog]

i dont know why i'm excited by this, but i am.

I hope I'm impressed. Feels like we're picking up a couple of fringe dwellers. Reflective of our currency though, so probably can't complain.

At least it's looking like Joey JoeJoe stays.

Must be an inside mid somewhere.

Interesting article. Talk to insiders on the world of trading. Interesting comments by a CEO...

“The buyer has to blink,” he said. “If you are selling you should never blink.”


"Meanwhile, Daniher wants to go to Sydney and I’m watching on going ‘bloody hell, good luck with that!’ It’s just going to be difficult.”

Bolded bit interests me. We did exactly that to get Shiel last year. GWS didn't blink. We did. St Kilda and West Coast both blinked for Hill and Kelly respectively.

Sydney will have to blink to get Daniher.

I'm guessing outside Essendon, the other difficult clubs are Carlton, Fremantle, Gold Coast and Adelaide.

 

[yodellinhank]

So a little birdy told me that you’ve offered our key forward 1.2m a year over five... I’m kinda interested to hear your thoughts about how it could get done?

We offer you a fake merger, and then we just take him.

No don’t do that because all of their 37 members will get angry

Of all people to fall for the deliberate and contrived trolling of trade radio, it had to be a roos fan. Trust.

Then they name their B&F the Barker-Brown trophy after he captains us to a flag?

Trade Wrap: Arch-rivals set to break 16-year trade deadlock

Andrew Phillips is keen for greater opportunities at Essendon, while a Crows forward's future remains up in the air

Where the **** did that 16 years go? Feels like yesterday

 

[Keystone agony]

If we lost Joe. Aswell as picking up Jenkins for scraps what would people think of picking up Mason Wood aswell.

I know he plays for the hated North Melbourne and a bit of a whipping boy

Avg 1.7 goals a game in 2018. Still only 26

Wonder if he can kick 40 goals for us and get him for a pick 33?

The problem with Jenkins and Wood is neither can stand under a long ball so that'd be the reason against it as McKernan would have to play aswell

No way you'd waste pick 33 on Wood. We already have a very similiar player in Laverde. Should still be some decent prospects in the draft at 33 as well.

GWS swap pick 12 and 18 with StKilda for pick 6 - As i pointed out last week the draft points index is only a guide and the common good is often greater as evidenced by the GWS trade.

 

[yaco55]

5 & 25 is well under. And I believe EFC have flat out refused that.

A player will need to be involved to get the trade done for sure.

Go through the history of trading and not many get better than 5 and 25 - Treloar is the exception and Collingwood over-paid big time - I wouldn't complain about 5 and 25.

Wills is a poor man's Myers - And most were happy to see him go.
