Trade Dunkley

[Jeanette54]

Just heard on the AFL site that we are starting to weaken on the Dunkley trade, and that it will probably get done..

Stay strong doggies. We have absolutely no reason to go soft, and gift the Bombers anything.

Yep, my gut feel is that we will accept pick 7 only.

Cleary and (Riley) Beveridge Bornadog. They were also discussing whether any player was worth two first round picks.

But that's just those two flogs spitballing, there's no indication from the club that we're weakening?

Dead silence. Haven't heard from Power. With every passing minute I'm thinking more and more that he stays.

I think unless Essendon resolves their trade deadlocks tomorrow, there is a very good chance Dunkley stays.
If Dodoro's trades all fall through, I think his time at the Bombers is over.

That is what I love about Power - the Iceman

Quite simply if the injectors want Dunkley they have until end of business tomorrow to present to Sam Power what they are prepared to offer to prize him out of a two year comittment. If that doesn't satisfy our decision makers then Essendon should be told to bugger off as we have other business to attend to. Apparently they are yet to formally present an offer as to what they are willing to part with which is par for the course with these arse clowns who make a play for everyone and drag everything out until the last minute. Pay up or piss off would be my ultimatum to the Dodo.

Mitcha, I agree that we shouldn't get in their spoiling and delaying tactics. Put a timeframe on them and then close up shop if they can't meet it

What does your 'gut feel' say? Does he stay a dog or does the deal get done?

[Doc26]

It feels as though Essendon / Dodoro want to claim Trade Week for their own, and placing too many Clubs like ours at their disposal.

The number of deals that they're trying to manipulate, due largely to their sinking ship, is stalling progress for too many.

I want the narrative to shift that sees us putting the heat on them in this regard.

As GVGjr mentions above " Put a timeframe on them and then close up shop if they can't meet it ", and allow us to move on.

Who even is that? Kind of looks like some hybrid Cal Twoomey / Jason Akermanis

Do not give us junk for Dunk.

Stare him down Sammy.

Spot on! We should have given them a deadline and told Dunkley the ball is in their court to make it work.

One thing about the bombers - they are fantastic at manipulating the media stories. Whether journos are their supporters or just desperate for clicks.

For mine, I’m happy with treloar on a contract which sees Collingwood pay at least 33% of his contract for the duration of his contract if the stars line up but I also want a first round pick next year.
