Don't bother trying to argue anything to do with Toumpas with Picket, you will not convince him, Toumpas being the best player in the comp wouldn't convince him

I see that as a good sign, I think early planning for potentially losing him was part of him being forward, now he's back so they may be more confident

Unfortunately very serious, hopefully he stays around It seems he and roosy are emotionally invested in getting us where we belong

No chance imo, I reckon they'd need to stay where they are for another couple of years before they would be given one

the only real chance in my opinion is that Sydney need to release the pressure on the salary cap a bit and see those two as non essential going forward Mitchell and Bird that is.

Which top 8 side would any of those blokes get a game in Saty? read my comment. I also stated they either wouldn't get a game in a top 8 side at the moment, or they won't be on the list next year anyway, I find it hard to believe either Clark or Westrupp will be on the list next year I have seen Harmes play some okay games, attacks the ball well, but as I said right now he probably isn't in our best 22 let alone the best 22 of a better side and Hunt is a raw talent, love his pace but again, wouldn't get a look in at a top 8 side.

Mitchell was super impressive last year at AFL level, I reckon he'd be a fantastic get, if they wanted a first rounder I would probably be hoping for steak knives as well though, Pick 4 for Mitchell and Bird? Rohan? Membery? 2nd Rounder?

1. Evans 2. Tapscott 3. Blease 4. Spencer 5. Fitzpatrick 6. Barry 7. westrupp 8. Hunt 9. King 10. Harmes 11. Byrnes 12. Clisby 13. Mckenzie 14. Strauss 15. Nicholson 16. Terlich 17. Clark so that's 17 players I legitimately don't see being part of our next finals push, they won't all be gone at years end and you can never write off Roosys ability to improve players but right now, they wouldn't get a look in in top 8 sides, or won't be on our list next year anyway

Seriously getting over Mark Robinson, he is nearly reaching Damien Barrett levels now

there will be 17 clubs lining up at the doors of AFL house if the Swans even make an offer for Chip, I reckon he's a Hawk or a Docker in 2015 either way

While I agree I think they will believe they are at least 4 years off, the potential to set up a forward combo of Wright and McCartin would be very tempting, i'd also say Petracca might be seriously considered, he might be too good to pass up, despite the talls

I reckon the Saints would kill to land mcCartin and Wright, maybe we can line up a trade for Jack Steven?

Unfortunately the anti ageing stuff must not have worked on little, he still looks like a bitter old dried up apricot

I even heard one of the drugs treats cancer, maybe we should reward them?

Pretty sure PJ's contract is up at the end of the year, wouldn't be surprised if the AFL tries to convince him to go in and rescue Essendon once ASADA finish cleanng out every drug tainted element of their club.

The thing is they will have no interest in our first rounder either, they are already getting Heeney cheap as chips

I thought the same thing, two dogs shots, hard to predict what the MRP will come up with, it seems they guess

Roos has Pederson playing like a 150 game AFL player, the man is a miracle worker.

Oh wow, that's depressing..

I would like to take my slice of the humble pie and admit I was totally wrong in considering Bomber Thompson a possibility for the job, there is no way in the world we should let him any where near our club.

Essendon fc goes to court Essendon fc fails in court Essendon fc receives punishment Players are issued with infraction notices Players sue Essendon football club for damages Hird tries to sue Essendon fc for some reason Tasmania rejoices as it enters the AFL as the Tasmanian Bombers with Mark Neeld at the helm, Mathew Primus as senior assistant and Shannon Byrnes captain

Agree BB, and the public opinion is even beginning to swing back a little against them now, the media had painted ASADA as a bad guy but now most are realising that it's just bad for football

I believe he signed a two year deal and is out of contract at the end of next year, much like Danger if they believe they are going to lose him anyway because we have made an offer too good to refuse, they might just consider a good trade deal

Patrick Dangerfield - 1.2 million a year for 6 years, offer pick 3 and Jimmy Toumpas for the trade, if the crows feel they will lose him anyway this is far better than the compo they would get. Dion Prestia - 700k a year for 4 years and trade pick 4 Craig Bird - Genunine role player, offer our second rounder grab young Stretch with our third rounder upgrade Jetta and Georgiou after that everything will be coming up MFC

He is North through and through, his dad scouts talent from north east Vic for the club, would be a huge effort even getting him to talk to us.
