Looks like it's not all roses down at Tullamarine. Massive loss for Bombres.

Nice to see SA benefit. They have lost their fair share wanting to head back to Vic. Agree it is a really big loss to Bombres. No doubt Dodoro will ask for 3 first round picks or two too 10’s or something equally ridiculous.

Giggles.

Port the preferred option. They have a history too given the Ryder trade was sent to arbitration.

Port have taken a few from Essendon. Wanganeen, Hardwick, Monfries, Ryder... They're a good feeder club.

He's contracted for another year - think we'll see Dodo dig in here. Probably rightly so.

If I was them I'd target Butters from Port.

Essendon's Orazio Fantasia linked to move back to SA but manager says it won't happen

Essendon speedster Orazio Fantasia is going nowhere, according to his manager Anthony McConville.

Fantasia, 23, was linked to a move to Port Adelaide as part of a shock trade.

But McConville, from Mac’s Sports, told the Herald Sun Fantasia was not exploring a trade.

The South Australian signed a contract last August, tying him to Essendon until 2021.

“He is going nowhere,” McConville said.

“He is happy where he is and he has just signed a contract.”

Port Adelaide declined to enter into any public speculation surrounding the swirling rumours that Fantasia was looking to move home.Port issued a quick “no comment” when asked about the Fantasia rumour that started on Wednesday at lunchtime.

It was reported that Fantasia — the 23-year-old small forward who’s kicked 105 goals in his 69 games for the Bombers — had made his desire known to the club that recruited him in 2013.

Haha, I didn’t see your comment at first because I didn’t make it past the first post.

As soon as I read Fantasia wanted out I hightailed it over to Bomberblitz!

There is a quiet little bid out to see who Else will compete

We should help with the cause as we have a habit of being under bidder, no harm done And quietly get preference for a 2nd round pick with some sort of 3 way deal


Essendon won’t be playing in any GF in fan-ta-si-a career

R14 7w 7 L even if they win 5 , the may finish 9 .... perfect


The bottom sides are pretty much establsihed in where they may finish .. well bottom 3 at least
GCS , gws retirement village , great pretenders melb
And logjam St Kilda/ hawks/ north or even us
Just a matter who wants to outbid or counter

Plllease go to Carlton , oraz

Why would he go anywhere but SA if he leaves Essendon? He's contacted for another 2 years, surely he either demands a go home trade or he stays?

Also 12 wins will be enough for finals this year, 11 might even be enough and it is mathematically possible for 10 wins to make it given the evenness in the middle part of the ladder.
