I mean…gives us three first round picks for you know who…

That was before the Stringer/Lav contract discussion wasn’t it though?

are you forgetting about dual captain RISH

Excuse me wim, speak up for the people in the back, are you suggesting a M E G A T R A D E?

I guess it means, Saints approached the Merrett camp and they didn’t say ā€œā– ā– ā– ā–  offā€ like the Cripps and Bontempelli camp did?

I do love a MULTIBALL, but no.
This is just Zerrett to St Kilda for two first rounds.
Three first rounds to WC for the messiah.

Tom Morris: ā€œI’m not saying that Merrett is going to St Kilda. I’m also not not saying it either. I’m just saying that there is a scenario where Merrett isn’t playing at Essendon next year. There is also a scenario where he is. Still a lot to play out. Watch this space. More at 6:00.ā€

Usually this can mean something else. i.e Zac’s manager is seeking a payrise for his client. If Essendon are going to the draft with a list refresh then Zac wants more money to hang around.

The comment of ā€˜he isn’t on a million at Essendon’ was interesting

So he’s having a bet each way lols

Just go away Tom

Then when Tassie come in, we trade all our picks to St Kilda for Merrett during our window.

Why would anyone in 29+ who cares about winning finals and playing a premiership want to stay at Essendon if they had options elsewhere?

Can’t see Merritt leaving though - that would be a bad look for Essendons marketing and that is all we care about these days.

BREAKING NEWS:

I am making an audacious play to bed Sydney Sweeney. More at 6:00pm.

He may be turning 29. But he has another 3 years before his form drops and will play every one of those games.

It would be funny if Merrett left because Laverde and Stringer have been told to explore options but don’t get any bites and end up staying. We lose Merrett but keep Stringer and Lav. Actually that’s not funny at all but watch it happen.
