Jesse Christ

Who said anything about passing on him, it was just observed that he doesn't have to go hell for leather at the combine. Some of you need to calm down, especially you Dazzle

What the [censored] did I just watch? Holly [censored] way this guys embarrassing. How much to buy his silence?

Yeah nah no game of bluff I believe we're genuily shopping 2 around for a player and a slight downgrade, I think we're more keen on Brayshaw by the sounds of it anyway. Something about drafting petracca scares me. Can't quite put my finger on it

Pick 2 and our second rounder for 6 and Stringer.

And both scenarios end in us getting screwed. It's the Melbourne way lol

Yeah that's a cool story but we've already nominated him, now we just have to bid. Very big chance that can be with our third round pick, but because he decided to be Ironman at the combine a club might actually consider taking him somewhere before our second.

I'm willing to take him with our second round pick but why are we showing off how good he is and tempting clubs into making us do that. We're taking him.. Who is he trying to impress with his combine heroics?

You don't knock back a guy that can give Chapman the don't argue because of one mark. Kid is a gun!

In a heartbeat

I don't think the dream is to win a flag with a once struggling club who overcame adversity etc, I think the dream is to just win a flag. Ask Lake how a cheap premiership feels. He'll probably say pretty damn good!

Pick 1 for Cameron?

I'd rather see him flip the bird to the draft camp and smoke cones out the back so everyone passes on him and we get him with pick 200. But that's just me

Seriously WTF is he doing? We're taking you, son, stop raising your value!

Deal 2 or 3 for this, it won't matter cos they're only doing it for a KPF, so essentially they're dealing Dalhaus and pick 6 for a power forward that they desperately need. I'd expect Melbourne to do this if the shoe was on the other foot

Why is Stretch Jnr there? Why are we advertising him? Of course Brayshaw has to be injured. FFS

Already do, he was taken before Zaha if memory serves.

Nope. The title alone makes me feel like vomiting. He's in for a shock when he plays us and faces the most ferocious display of supporter backlash he's ever encountered

I don't want him to shut up, the more he fights the worse this gets for Essendon, and every year this is in the news is a year the druggies won't accomplish anything in this competition. Then there's the rebuild from the fallout. The best thing is that even if this all finished today, the Drugs have gone from top 4 hopefuls and contenders to also runs and they've lost their window with Jab at least and we are probably in a better position for a flag in the next 5 years than they are- and that's saying something lol More salty Essendrug tears please.

Nice touch with the banner, it should stay like that until next year. Like the idea of calling the members wing flowers wing.

I would like to see us have a crack at Greenwood now- surely he's gone if they're spending cash on spuds in FA

For a player they don't want? Good luck with that. I will be [censored] if we have to pay more for him than what we get for Mitch.

That's the AFL for you though. It's dog eat dog. Maybe one day we'll take off the muzzle and bite back. Not holding my breath though.

Pies won't make it that easy. I'm going to the bombers charged and redacted thread for a little pick me up, always does the trick!

[censored] pick 33 Melbourne SEND HIM TO THE DRAFT on principal. Getting sick of this lay down roll over oussy club!

No one should have their compo diluted if they lose a FA and bring in another-that's the part that makes FA unfair to "feeder " clubs, it flies in the face of fairness and sets up a market that is only for the strong to benefit from. Abolish that and FA is sorted. The AFL should have something set up where teams that are in the bottom 8 for x amount of years get an bigger salary cap then the more successful teams above them. Instead of calling it COLA allowance we can call it a crapa allowance.
