Andrew Gaff - RFA

[Revie]

No farking way!!

I haven’t heard anything regarding Essendon putting an offer in front of Gaff.

We are after Setterfield and Shiel.

This is just ■■■■■■■ confusing!

[Deckham]

Um ok. Not sure how relevant it is then for the Gaff thread! More an argument not to take Gaff if you really want Rozee.

Ants:

Well…that’s my point. Something to consider. I rate him that highly.

Read this stuff for a bit of fun, but don’t take any of it too seriously.

7 years? Some of you lot are completely bonkers.

I know right? In 7 years time, he’ll be coming off his third Brownlow and fifth premiership. We don’t want him walking out the door for nothing. Offer Gaff 8 years!

Ha! That’s the spirit, beautiful!

You can’t do that. Draft/trade tampering.

Only according to the rules.

From Twitter … EFC supporters aren’t the only ones losing their collective minds!

“Hard to tell with all these rumours but a Hawks fan just posted he saw them sitting down at a café on Glenferrie Road…

The nearest club to Glenferrie Street is North Melbourne…

Our last pick 8 goes allright.

I’m very reluctant to give it away just becuase trades.

[SAAD2QUICK]

Essendon have a 6 year deal infront of Andrew, and I can almost guarantee he will be at EFC next season.

This is what I believe will happen.

West Coast dont match
P17 or so as Comp

Essendon trade guelfi + 8 for 17 and x 2nd rounder… yes we go backwards but it’s so they don’t match.
8 goes elsewhere as part of a package for Kelly or whoever else they are chasing.

[Wanderlust]

I still don’t understand how Essendon could be this involved in getting Gaff and not one media outlet has mentioned it.

Why the secrecy?

[SAAD2QUICK]

When does the media get it right this early?

[Speedy_Gonzales]

You can’t do a trade where the value is clearly not balanced.

Only way clubs have sometimes got around this is via future picks included (as their value is unknown) but even so it can’t be so blatant.

[SAAD2QUICK]

Could be a future first then, but that could definitely eventuate.

[HirdMentality]

I wouldn’t necessarily worry about future cap pressures; Hurley, Hooker, Heppell, Zaharakis and Bellchambers are likely in their max contracts now and will likely be on reducing contracts from here on.

We’ve also drafted and built a team of kids who have leaderships qualities and value on field success, the type of guys who willing take unders to keep a group together.

[All_Things_Essendon]

Another person who signed up 16 hours ago declaring with almost certainty that Gaff is coming to Essendon and “conveniently” throws in Guelfi as the sweetener. I say conveniently because that the very scenario that’s being talked about today

How can you say it’s clearly not balanced. Who’s to say the value of Guelfi?
