Why would Essendon match an offer to a player who doesnt want to be at the club? Essendon needs a clear out of those making decisions and Dodoro too It's all a ploy to get a better return. If they don't match, they will get pick 20 based on Brisbane's contract offer which is reported to be $650 000 a year for 5 years. If they match it, Brisbane will have to do a trade instead of getting him for nothing. If they add some more coin to the contract, Essendon can end up with pick 7. Sydney dodged a bullet by not getting him last year for pick 9 and and what would be pick 3 this year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In reality Daniher is only worth around pick 20 or a late 1st rounder given his injury cloud. SYdney kept Papley, who has now committed to going through next year, and we have a our early draft pick If Essendon match and can't do a trade, and Dodoro has history in asking for unreasonable overs, then Essendon is stuck with a player who doesnt want to be there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely you appeal the Long suspension to give him a sneaky chance. I thought it was worth a week but surprised the MRO had the minerals to suspend him. Yep some huge outs for us. Marshall will have to go back the ruck and we loose that spare roaming tall forward. With Jake going home that Brings Battle back in and he's a real handy developing player. Apart from Geary our whole backline is 20 and under and coming along very nicely. Not expecting a win Friday but proud of how the team has developed under rats and the talent coming through under Rats. Our window is starting to open and the next couple of years looking bright. Saints the new Melbourne based go to team. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah maybe Might just be he didn't have the adequate coaching support around him this year with staffing cuts, or he isn't up to the BIG JOB. based on past performance at lower levels and younger newbies i reckon he has something to give.

Covid has stuffed up training and it's hard to implement a new match plan. Been a real challenging year for even the most experienced coaches. Like you said, he didn't have a good support staff either. In hindsight, the stress on Shaw was visible in his last couple of press conferences, where he just looked shattered.

Only speculating but i wonder if there was a fallout over some of the delisted players and having Brown and Higgins on the trade table. I'm actually pretty happy he may not be there,saw some pretty ordinary coaching this year from him. Think the take over year was a flash in the pan. Tigers and Pies for me this week.

Well it does happen doesnt it, Goodwin flies after Roos retires only to stutter a few years later, Look if i was Shaw and they cut the guts out of the team and im not wanting it id toss it in, any fool would see what your coaching record is going to look like in 2 or 3 ys time as there about to sack you.... Anyway Fj you shouldnt be so hard on Shaw like you have assitants too who all got the bullet so that says something, they call the shots during a game too, anway where is this news he is in hospital...nothing in any of the Melbourne press... To me this sounds like a board power play in motion, very very much simlar to the early 000 over the road at the G, a very powerful GM shooting everyone down around him to make himself unsackable calling the shots and coach under him, then with a weak board pretty much does as he pleases with cutting the guts out of the team.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeeh, but forcing a trade will only work if the opposite party is willing to meet the demand. Brisbane could equally say "forget it" and Essendon is left in a 5 year contract with a player who doesn't want to be there. Clubs don't generally match the contract offers because there is heavy risk involved Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
