Trade Talk 2019: who should we beat our chest like an ape about now?

Although it’s very exciting that we are now a destination club, it does make draft night extremely boring!

He’s just teasing. It’s not like he said no.

Apologies if this has been posted previously. Adrian speaking prior to yesterday’s Shiel announcement, speaking about the clubs direction, our approach this trade period, and how he feels about our list.

Said some interesting things about last years trade period too.

Well he isn’t going to be critical of the list that he put together!

Did you just overlook where I said 4 good years, or you think all players over 30 play well and are worth their contract value?

Yes, to all that. And also add that those clubs were using sports supplements to bulk up, improve performance, etc (as acknowledged by glowing media reports at the time). For their success, we paid the price.

There was also Treloar, Cognilio, Mitchell, Yeo, Docharty, and Adams.

I think once we finish the Shiel deal we are done

So what have I missed today?
Does Jack Martin play for Essendon yet?

Dodoro says we will have a quiet trade period but there are a few have identified to have a look at.

Bang. Lands biggest trade name.

I don’t believe we are done yet. Will be trying to turn water into wine via lesser picks/players & that future 1st.

Harts. Dea. Leuey. Colyer… maybe Lav.

Dodoro “We are pretty determined to get some good outcomes

You are reading too much into what was said.

Of course we identified a few. You need options. We landed our top priority. Bar an unexpected bargain, we are done.
