MEGATRADE
I tried to game the system…with GC’s points getting knocked out first…then WB’s…then Hawthorn’s…Port move up the order slightly, so they can say to Geelong “we tried our best to assemble an offer for Ratugolea”…
ESSENDON
BEFORE = 31 + 52 + BZT + MASSIMO
AFTER = 33 + Duursma
PORT
BEFORE = 25 + 41 + 49 + Duursma
AFTER = 24 + 41 + BZT + Sweet
No, it’s a player. As I said very cryptic and I was just trying to read the tea leaves, but it may be a case of someone on the sauce last night trying to stir up our group.
would anyone trade Shiel for Billings as a straight swap?
both 2 year deals, both surplus at clubs in position.
would probably rate shiel higher. maybe saints add some mayo.
maybe media could just release his as a potential trade to create some more stories before the trade period is wrapped up. Purely speculation but might generate some clicks.
No. Shiel isn’t best-22 at Essendon, but I’d be happy to have him see out his contract at this point and earn his place.
I think we do need small forwards, but we need some small players who play with high intensity, and add constant pressure on the opposition’s defensive line. Billings could be a handy luxury player for a club who has this already in spades and just needs a quality finisher.
