Versatile Andrejs Everitt almost certain to change clubs

Who was keen on Setanta?

There was talk of a swap last year, involving Ray.

We had precisely zero interest in Setanta, take that as gospel.

I don't read BF.

I know a deal for Setanta & a swap for Ray was rejected by the club, but i thought they still had interest.

Who told you this cos its rubbish?
Every year Carlton throws up Setanta's name as trade bait. Not once have we wanted to deal for him. He is a dud.

He wouldn't get a game in their backline.

He'd get a game ahead of Raph Clarke.

If Melbourne's interest is true, let's to try to get Aaron Davey with a mix of picks (if the cap can be stretched, or another player moved on to make room). The HUN reports he is non-committal about re-joining Melbourne. That would get me a little happier about Everitt going...

Ernie and SS stole my thunder.

I thought we were interested, yet couldn't agree to a trade.

I could be wrong.

Setanta O'hAilpin at the Western Bulldogs hoping for a straight swap for Farren Ray, but a friendly connection had the final say.

Once the Bulldogs rejected the Blues' offer for Ray, St Kilda and its football manager Matthew Drain took the front running.

There is no mention of us ever being interested. We refused the trade, so how did you come to the conclusion that we were interested?

CARLTON'S Irish experiment with the O'hAilpin brothers could be over.

Setanta and younger brother Aisake appear to be on the market after day one of trade week, with the Western Bulldogs and Port Adelaide showing interest in 25-year-old Setanta.

If we were interested, the deal would have been done. There are some people "in the know" on this forum. If I were a betting man, I would go by their version over Mark Robinson's especially where Bulldogs players are involved.

Again JH40, there are some very good people on this forum who are very well connected and informed. It's a matter of belief systems. I don't beleive the newspapers, I beleive many of the people on this forum who have shown a track record of having the good oil. There's an old saying about having two ears and one mouth, so use them in that proportion. This is true for WOOF. If you work out who has reliable and ongoing info, listen, don't talk. You will then be surprised just how informed you might just be.

Thinking about it more, and if those reports are true.
I would rather get rid of Everitt, and not have someone at the club who doesn't want to be there.

The question is why has the relationship fractured so soon after re-signing. I am not filled with confidence that Rocket handles our developing players well.

Or possibly the developing players think they are a walk up start every week time must be served when you are on a strong and ageing list. His time will come he just needs to be patient and honest with himself!
