He certainly played the end of the season like someone who was wanting out.

I thought Jackson was quite upset because he wanted Selwood with that pick.

Correct-o.  Jackson very much wanted Selwood but Terry and Greg, in their wisdom decision Jackson couldn't be able to use that pick because they wanted McMahon and duly threw pick 19 away.  :banghead

But isn't Jackson the one some want to sack because he is to blame for every poor recruiting decision in the past 5 years?   ::)

who said every decision???

its not entirely his fault but some of the decisions made since his arrival in 2005 has been nothing short of disgraceful.

Maybe those fools Miller and Wallace had the final say but if he is employed to source talent he has a funny way of showing it.

lets see which duds he picks up this year

giddy up.

Gibson is a pretty boy wannabee who thinks he is better than what he is.

Loser.

Hows the Hawks form?

stuffin idiots running scared because they didnt make the finals now they are trying to buy their way back in.

Hawks will be back bigger and better next year so don't kid yourself, Gibson at only 25 years old would slot very well into their side as he would into ours!!

keep dreaming about players from other clubs.

26 by the time the season starts. No worries what a great fit he is.

Id prefer to create and spend money to develop rather than recruit hacks and rejects. Gibson is one of those. Karma will bite him as it did one N.Brown

I'm not sure if Gibson is quite a hack but you have hit the nail on the head.  Spend more and more money on the footy department.  Keep drafting Kids Kids Kids.  :thumbsup

Lovett wants out of Essendon (Australian)
« Reply #68 on: September 10, 2009, 02:42:49 AM »
Greg Denham in today's Australian

ESSENDON midfielder Andrew Lovett wants a fresh start at another club one year after he went tantalisingly close to resurrecting his career with Geelong.

Lovett is out of contract at Windy Hill and is understood to be keen to be traded, with West Coast, Sydney, Hawthorn and Fremantle showing interest.

Lovett, 27, wants a three-year contract elsewhere after playing in 22 of the Bombers' 23 games in 2009.



Ruckman Mark Seaby is certain to join Sydney, but so far specific details between the Eagles and the Swans have not been worked out.

Other Eagles players who are looking at options elsewhere include Mark Nicoski and Matt Spangher. The out-of-contract pair are managed by Colin Young.

It is understood several clubs, including St Kilda, have sounded out Spanger's management about a move.

On Nicoski's future, Nisbett said: "It depends on what offers we get and what he wants to do."

He's the only Dyson I can think of.

I'd rather the vaccuum cleaner of the same name on my list than him.

could we not have shown some balls and asked for a 2nd rounder and stuck to it till trade week.

I mean who does trade deals a month before trade week.

stuff that is pathetic i reckon from the club.

raines is crap we all know that but they DONT think so why wouldn't we play games with them in order to get a higher pick.

Denham on SEN says that St. Kilda is still interested in McMahon and will talk to him after the finals.  :pray

Could the football gods be this kind. Surely not! We havent had this much luck in a long time, if the Saints take McMahon for a 2nd rounder- considering we coughed up a pick inside 20 and there 2nd round will be mid 30s- then it would be a fantastic bonus.

I know we've been burned trading player for player before but have a crack at Jarryn Geary?


Otherwise no other Sainter appeals to me and we should go for a pick.

Their 2nd rounder will be very late. Seeing as we'll probably have to pay some of his wage, it'd be fair.

*sigh* trade pick 19 in a strong draft for this dud, then get pick 30 odd in a weak draft.... I hope these trading/drafting mistakes are over.
