Journalists: Bulldogs were just posturing Marty Pask: the bulldogs were really respectful and handled themselves well

I agree with the general sentiment that Harmes and Kennedy for Macrae and Daniel feels like a bit of deck chair shuffling. However, Harmes was absolutely humming before he got injured this year. I can see both being quite solid 20th and 21st best players on a premiership team

Surely with some of the big willy statements about how the cats would get Smith in the draft could be nullified by us saying “we’ll just get a pick higher than you and take him”

I’m fine with future garbage pick for Macrae. The salary relief is beneficial and we flat out need to move on from both he and Caleb. Our list is rapidly approach a cliff with ground ball players age wise and opening up salary is a quick way for us to address that. Love both those boys but we...

On this “water under the bridge” thing- My world has been rocked. I use it in both the way threenewpadlocks says it should be used and the way Mackie used it. I checked with my wife and she too uses it in both ways. I am always talking about future plans with friends and say “but there’s...

Duh. Buddy probably wasn’t stoked to be in the middle of losing a grand final and getting taunted even if it is by a mate. But he moved on and didn’t cry about it like Hoks Media tonight

Didn’t hodge kiss his opponent in the middle of a grand final? And his opponent laughed it off cos he’s not a little b*tch

Haha Gothard what a ripper. I wish him well

Absolutely stoked. Can be a gun from day one. Improves our team from day one. We’ve added a lot of hardness this off season. Really strong off season

Yes!! Sanders is who I wanted. Got a great forward line of the future on our list but gotta address the approaching midfield cliff. This bloke could carry a big load from the get go! Bloody love it! Best 22 tomorrow!

A win for Smiley Boy!

Sadly I’m not confident in smiley boy’s intel. Scrolled back to August 30 and their posting says : Hale, Mcqualter for coaches. Henry to Essendon. Lobb gone. Hope they’re right here though. Love Sanders!

I would LOVE Sanders

I like the Danny Boyd podcast with Tom Boyd and Danny Mcginlay but their trade period wrap up episode is an absolute flop. Makes you wonder if any of them actually watch football

I didn’t think he was a liability in his different role. We were just missing prime Macrae in his old role. So yeh agree. I’d say one of Libba and Harmes has to be in each stoppage next year. And if one is injured then West has to step up.

Not bad. Macrae almost couldn’t play midfield this year. Maybe was carrying something. Maybe he was cooked. Wouldn’t mind seeing west edge him out and having Macrae sub it

We need to play a deeper rotation quite simply. And probably only play 2 of Treloar, Macrae and Daniel / use one as sub

I think West does need to get given a spot in the midfield rotation. However, I have no issue with his role being a combination of forward and mid. He is excellent bringing the ball to ground and winning one on one body to body contests when he plays forward. Decent pressure considering his pace...

Actually stoked with the Harmes pickup. My Melbourne mate says he actually is pretty versatile, can even play back. But basically I’m stoked because it felt like going into next year we were one midfield injury away from dead. Especially if that injury is libba. Harmes is an afl quality player...

Excellent point! Not a good look

You’d say for us to do this deal the risk of a bid coming for Croft before our first was definitely considerable. It makes it our pick 10 (Croft) and then we’d have 17. In such a scenario I’d happily pair 17 with F1 for a top end player in this draft

I’d take harmes because we are soft and can’t tackle and he is not as soft and can tackle better than most of our players

Naughton and Jamarra are the two most important of the “big 4” leaving. Can see why the club see English as the next one but I don’t like over investing in rucks and would go Baz instead. Hard to see us keeping all 4 though.

Agree it was good to hear and the club could have its issues with him. But that would feed this all character no talent list bleed we’ve had since 2018

The pending disintegration of the Bailey Smith relationship is so upsetting to me. In such a short period of time our age profile has shat itself. This guy is a supreme talent and as a club you just have to be better at managing relationships with talented people. Losing dunkley and him within a...

Didn’t we try that with Jakey and he and his manager flipped their nut and did a “we’re not fired, you’re fired” thing?

If we took the ultimate risk and did those 3 firsts for pick 4(6) and got Watson this would be our team (I would hope) Ed Jones Cleary/Buss Dale JOD JJ Williams Libba Poulter Cody Lobb West Watson Naughton JUH English Bont Baz Treloar Scott Daniel Gallagher Sub: Macrae I truly think Macrae...

Congratulations gang!! Great team. Unbelievable late game execution defensively throughout the finals and well enough coached team to kick enough goals to win each final. Loved watching Bobby’s party today. My fav was the chase down on Starc. A champion team I’ve admired all year! Enjoy it

Apparently KP players don’t play roles 😂 good chat mate Even global warming is because of bad coaching at the dogs

Lobb, Keath, Bruce and Jones have all been area of need recruits so your point is a bit meh. Just so happens they’re all old recruits. Treloar was a semi salary dump we’re now about to pay for Boyd wasn’t best 22 at his club and only was for us for about 6 weeks. Risked everything for that...
