    Hypothetically;

    Is this just Essendon being asshats, deflecting and also trying to destabilise us, Irrespective of if they want him or not.

    Why don’t we get into Ridley and do exactly the same thing?

    So why do we let him go? I still don’t understand why we would or why anyone thinks we have to.

    I suspect Essendon is using their media connections to talk it up. Lets wait to hear from Stevo

    Exactly. We don’t have to. We’ll have to receive an unbelievable, too good to be true, offer to let him go. He has TWO years to go on his deal. It’s not like the bombers can just wait out a year. They’ll go after someone else in that time. We have all the cards.

    Don’t contracts mean anything? Or is saying you want to go enough to break them?

    I find this so condescending, I don't know why.

    We don't and we won't. People are speculating because the media is.

    We’re seriously so piss weak in these situations and always have been so he probably goes if he wants to because we’re just so nice and seem more concerned with making sure that Essendon are a good side than we are with our own fortunes. I can’t think of one time that we’ve gone into a trade negotiation and come out ahead.

    The starting point would have to be AMT and Essendon 2021 1st pick. (Which would probably be in the top 5-6)
    I will never see #16 the same!!

    I’m still annoyed with Callan Ward going all those years ago and the opinion that this was modern football and he had to go because the money was irresistible

    They could offer deals like these to any clubs. Honestly I’m a little offended they’ve gone after us. Feels like they think they can pick on us small pickings

    Why are we being critical of the club over speculation? The facts are that we signed a good player to a long term deal, he's been promoted to a VC and leadership role and one of his best mates is the captain of the club.
