Stringer Trade Worth

[ledge]

Re: Stringer Trade Worth

We should only trade him if he really doesn't want to be at the club. We shouldn't just take anything.
StKilda stuck with Carlisle and it's worked OK, there might be something we can learn from that

I think it's Stringer that's got to learn not the club.
And that's the big question do we think he can and does he think he can or want to ?

Re: Stringer Trade Worth

Being late for appointments/ training would be enough.
Happens quite a bit with other clubs even going back to the 70s.

There are a few other clauses as well but I think we have explored this enough.

Re: Stringer Trade Worth

I think they mean about her parents being cool with it. I'd be cool with it so long as Jake was cool with me whacking him with a broomstick 5 or 6 times beforehand.(I wouldn't be cool with it)

Yeah the 'It's OK for you to sleep with our 17 year old daughter because you played a poor-mediocre part in a premiership for the football club we like. And we won't worry about how this might affect your pregnant wife and young child." part of it is what I hope is wrong

Carlisle is a good example.

Problem is if we sack Stringer for being late to appointments etc. then we have to be able to point to all the other steps in the disciplinary ladder like official warnings and written demands which I'm betting don't exist anywhere in written form. Then the next time any other player misses an appointment or is late for training the club will have solicitors letters asking when that player can expect to be sacked and if he isn't going to be sacked then why was my client sacked?

That's what I'd do anyway.

We've all got a bit to learn from this.

I'd be willing to bet that it has been documented. We're not just talking about being late for one or two training runs here.

I was talking about him being banned not sacked.

I hope you are right. I must admit I am thinking of what the club would have been like ten years ago and it's grown a bit since then.

Same effect I would think. A half decent lawyer would argue that was just sophistry and I'd reckon the beak would agree.

Ok call it suspended then.
Has not fulfilled his contractual obligations

So long as his misdemeanours have been documented and he has had all his rights explained and adhered to through any disciplinary processes we can call it what we want. The footy club have a HR department (it must have, it has 100+ employees) I hope it's fingerprints are all over this.

It's pretty obvious they have been for two years, a bloke with that much talent you would have tried everything to get him right, help and assist as his ex says he doesn't want to see it.

Re: Stringer Trade Worth

Feel very sorry for the young woman but looks like she is coming out the other side now after going public.

On the other hand it seems that Jake has not even reached the "end of the beginning" as he is in denial.
Disaster - but we will get through it. He is only one player.
Don't know if he can stay at the Club. What a mess.

Re: Stringer Trade Worth

Let's be honest, Jake even though he was down in our premiership year still played a big part in it.

The outcome needs to be the same from the trade. We're not going to get 2015 stringer value, but if we can get 2016 stringers value then we will have done well.

A late first rounder will get the job done. Stringer is cooked. It's going to take a lot of patience to get him sorted out.

I'd suggest his demons will be with him a long time, chances are he could never be truly gone from him.

I hope he gets better, likewise I hope Abby and the kids can come through too.

Nice to see some measured and considered discussion about the situation. The crap being spoken on BigFooty.com is nauseating!

That wouldn't have happened back in the day when it had great moderators. Up until about ten years ago I reckon it was.

I wonder what happened to those guys?

Last I heard they'd joined ISIS in Syria.
