Yes this would not be a wise move. Basically we are holding all the aces atm, we do this we have completely wasted a decent hand. He's not going anywhere, unless we say so therefore we just keep cool and play the straight bat until 1.) Essendon give up and go away or 2.) Godfather trade.

This is a real test for the club we need to use it as a template for going forward, or we could really regret it considering the young talent we have on our list.
