essendon wanted chad wingard. dream on. port would never do that. even though port are getting a good player in ryder you wouldn't give up chad.

Port can play hard ball hope they do

 

I don't get the "I want out cos you breached your duty of care to me" but which is then follow by "I want the best deal possible for the Bummers" bit.

I'm obviously totally blinded by my hatred for them but if it was me I'd be getting out and doing it via the breach of care clause.


hope Paddy uses the clause to get the f out of there and leave them with no compensation

Injected with drugs by Essendon, who can not tell him what they were

Thats criminal, and every player their should walk and leave Essendope with nothing

They said Ryder for Shiel and Jacksch

oh my god...

 

Interesting that Ryder at first said he was unhappy with Bombers and wanted to go to Brisbane, to be close to his partner's family. He is on a contract. I am aware of the get out clause.

Now though, he is wanting to go further away from his partner's family, to a Premiership chance and probably for more money.

Wonder if Bomber fans see him as many on here see MC.

I'm sure they would but at least he does have a legitimate reason for getting out of the club.

I doubt more money.

This likely ties up Ports first pick and is good news for our hopes if landing Billy in the third round.

Good point.

yes, excellent point.

(although, in saying that, i'd prefer bombers continue with their 'wingard or wines' route and ryder uses the clause to walk for free just to screw the peptides!)

What if proposed Port trades ark up with concerns over player welfare at Essendon?

cant be news to them surely !!!

Mitch Clarke was heading west when we stepped in and secured his transfer to Melbourne from Brisbane.

While acknowledging Clarke didn't work out, might a chat to Ryder with pick three to Essendon work for all parties concerned if Patrick could be encouraged to consider Melbourne?

Ryder with Garlett and Kennedy- Harris might produce a little magic and the addition of Dawes, Hogan, Watts, Howe and Kent all together might form the basis of a forward line our mids would be happy to kick quickly to.

McCartin is a nice forward but not a long term game winner.

This leaves pick two for a nice mid being one of Brayshaw or Petracca.

Comments?

No.

I do not ever want to deal with Essendon. And this trade period just shows why.


No.

Too much baggage, maybe in the PSD pick 2.

No.

I'm fairly sure the dees wouldn't ask you to undertake the negotiations dazzler .

Three is way to high. I would be happy to give them a full set of steak knives (Blease, Tappy etc etc) and some late picks though as they are going to need players soon enough. The EFC NQRs
