Re: Pick 3 in the draft
End of 1st round is about the right compensation for Battle. Battle worth the same as McKay.. Also, we will offer him more than what we would offer Gresham... we wont let Battle leave unless he is getting paid a lot. Basically, I doubt we let him leave unless we get Band 1... Gresham, we really did...

Re: The Eagles
Development. Another topic I guess but Owens, Windhager and Philipou gone backwards 100mph this year. Alarm bells I would have thought. If they do not work, then it’s nearly curtains for the club with Tassie coming in and hoarding all the picks. Low and behold we’d find ourselves on the bottom agai...

Re: Crab watch
Worse than Tambling over Franklin/Roughead? I would say equally as bad or worse. The reason it may be worse is because Petracca was universally believed to be the standout No. 1 pick and had been the entire draft year. Entering the draft period, Franklin was considered a high pick but not universal...

Re: Saints-Zebras affiliation revamped
I think it is a good move that could help all parties. Juniors overlooked in the draft have an incentive to choose Sandy as a VFL club, Sandy get more talent in the door, Saints get a closer look at potential talent and how they may blossom or struggle in the club environment. 💯 You could only disl...

Re: Dylan Shiel
The key point to me is that Shiel has negative trade value. He is a cap dump trade like Bowes. It has nothing to do with the player and everything to do with salary cap. well there are some reports that Essendon would actually pay Shiel salary if he moved to St Kilda... or at least some if it So, I...

Re: Dylan Shiel
We hold all the leverage given we can match any offer they make to Gresham. If they then make a big enough offer that we don't match we then hold the leverage as they will be looking to offload Shiels salary. Anything that reads like a massive Essendon win simply isn't going to happen and is likely...

Re: Brodie McLaughlin linked to Saints
Looks similar to Sharman...
But also looks like
1. they dont think Camniti is ready
2. are not confident that Membrey will be back
3. have a different role in mind for Owens, rather than 3rd tall forard

Re: Gresham
Do we think other clubs are stupid? Bombers getting Gresham for no draft capital, and then getting Shiel off their books and picking up a mid-latish pick for good measure Why would they be stupid to do that? Shiel is 31 next season and they have a bunch of midfielders who they want to play, e.g. Ho...

Re: Gresham
People saying no to this deal do not seem to understand it... If approved by the AFL and agreed by Essendon, then the deal is St. kilda: Out: Gresham, Pick 50 In: Pick 13, Shiel Essendon: Out: Shiel and his high salary In: Gresham + pick 50 The pick 13 is created by free agency. So it looks to me li...

If Acres put in that performance for us last week, replacing Caminiti in the side. we would have won. He was influential in Carlton´s win, he just keeps running up and down the ground But the worst part is that we are supposedly going to trade in James Jordon, who had a similar psuedo midfielder rol...

Re: Gettable
It's still early, Dockers saying they want 12 is no surprise and they won't expect to get that. In effect it's just saying that Pick 25 isn't good enough and we need to trade up to get the trade done. Everyone in the AFL including the Dockers knows that Henry is not worth pick 12 and that they will...

Anyone else think we went in against Brisbane with too many talls? The game changed when a running player, Byrnes, came on for Battle. We had Cordy Wilkie, Battle down back, with Hayes, Membrey Sharman as the tall forwards. But we also have Owens and the Pou who are hybrid forwards who compete in th...

Re: Hayes v sharman
I think went in to this game with 1 tall too many. When Byrnes came on, a hard running midfielder, the game changed. We were outnumbered around the ball in the first half.. We have 2 hybrid tall mid/3rd tall forwards who compete in the air in Owens and the Pou. Having Sharman + Hayes+Membreyas well ...

Re: Ross out, clark in who subs
Would personally replace Ross with Paton for the Brisbane game.
Charlie Cameron is their most dangerous forward. Paton will keep him to 2 goals or less. Without Paton, he may get off the chain like Breust did a couple weeks ago,.
Move Windy up the ground to cover Ross
