Doedee was VERY good prior to the ACLs. Captained the Crows at 23, was headed for a likely AA selection.

Personally, I’m excited at any news suggesting he might be Sydney-bound.
Once Sam Reid is delisted, there will be plenty of space for him to work on his recovery in the rehab room.

Lewis Young should be our kpd target, 202cm 99kg and only 24.
He was brilliant last year for the blues when they had a heap of defenders out injured.
On the outer for some reason, might be gettable.
Kept a close eye on him a few times - I found some of his efforts quite poor. Can't remember which game it was exactly but he had an absolute mare, weak efforts, half arsed attempts at contests he could have affected, and multiple turnovers. I remember thinking what on earth is everyone seeing in this guy. Hard pass.
 
Grundy didn't attend a recent future planning meeting at the dees. Should be one of the first trades done.


It's been a long time since I have been excited about an incoming player from another club. It's not quite up to the level of Buddy excitement, but looking forward to it nonetheless 🥰
 
A fit doedee is better than what McKay has ever shown. But our need for a defender stems from injuries, which this guy is prone to the worst of them all.

Would come down to cost I’d be nervous throwing a first for Doedee but it would depend on the price

Yep agree and Carlton fans don’t rate him either. Was traded from Bulldogs who also didn’t rate him.

He's a RFA. Would assume the contract offered would be to avoid a trade, or if he takes a smaller deal, a 2nd rounder via trade should suffice, or what, the Crows match and risk keeping someone who wants out, unlikely.
 
Doedee is a free agent. What do you mean by throwing a first?

Crows would match any offer I’d literally be shocked if they don’t (optics being their ex captain etc)- we’d have to facilitate a trade.

refer to Ticky's post
  • Signed a new contract this year for 3 years with the Blues.
  • There's not a single media rumour indicating he's unhappy at the Blues or up for a move.
 
Now that we have missed out on McKay we should put our energies into either DGB or Dougal Howard as the KPD.

Dougal Howard has been a solid player at 2 clubs but seems to have fallen out of favour with Ross Lyon. Previously has taken the no.1 oppo forward, so has great experience and is ready now.

DGB seems to split opinion on here but he is the right age profile to be a bookend in defence for our team for next 10yrs, good size (needs to put on some bulk) and a lot of potential. Once he hits 23/24 he will start to deliver on potential. With Hawks going for McKay, this would be a good opportunity to snare him. Will still need a year or two of development.

We should not go after Doedee. Not many KPP’s come back at the same level after 2 ACLs, was a very good player prior to injury but it’s too much of a risk when our other defenders are also prone to injuries.

There are no other KPD on the market or potentially on the market that provide much excitement.

The other alternative is getting Sam Reid fit to train and play in defence if we need back up there. Try again for a top line defender next year.

McCartin and Melican are 1 and 2 KPDs for start of 2024.
 
We wanted DGB in his draft year.

We need a tall defender.

Hawthorn want to trade him.

He’s 21 and still developing.

He could end up a Jake Lever type.

I have absolutely no insight, but a trade would come as no surprise.

Let’s just be thankful North did us a solid taking Phillips lol
