Things feel good again

If we can get Gresham out. That will be phenomenal work. I would be shocked if there’s anyone that would want him on their list though. We would probably have to pay like 80% of his salary, but the extra list spot would be worth it.

About time we had a genuine Mediterranean name on our list as a fringe player

Fiorini is a big upgrade on Gresham and a decent upgrade on Setterfield.

And it addresses our Italian shortfall since Laverde is off to giant pastures

Overall a net positive for the list.

If Essendon did get some one of quality that was young people will just complain how we are not rebuilding so either way they cant win

If not before @BAAKKEERRRR has tipped him into his sulphuric acid filled bathtub then certainly after.

Let me know when we get some quality young players and people do complain

So far it hasn’t happened

This Fiorini for Gresham stuff is like that bloke who had a paperclip and kept trading until he got a house. Fingers crossed a few more trades and we end up with Harley Reid…

Huh?

You think if we got a good, young player folks would say that’s not rebuilding?

What’s your basis for this?

Getting Flanders would have cost a first rounder so yes people would complain

No one will be happy unless we field an under 20’s side

As long as there’s a sax-heavy tune playing I’m ok with this approach.

Who mate?
