I still think either one of Redman or Parish will leave Essendon as well.

Someone should email them to make sure they know, just in case they think he barracked for another team as a kid and that’s why they haven’t tried to trade for him.
Money is strongly on Redman - Parish seems a cert. to stay.

It's not one player though, it's like quarter of our list out of contract. We've run out of players to pay

Geelong's salary cap is not the main point for me, they simply haven't got the draft assets required to satisfy the Dogs if they decided to move Smith on (esp as he is still contracted for another year)
Hawks, Saints and possibly Essendon are in much stronger positions to trade for Smith (I don't think Carlton, Collingwood or North Melbourne would be interested tbh)
Not sure about the Dees, doesn't sound like he is the type of personality that would gel with Goodwin tbh

Our first will be decent this year, and a club might forecast our first next year will be decent as well..
Regardless of that this is a humanitarian issue and the Dogs need to do the right thing.
Sam Power will do what’s best for the club and if that is holding Bailey Smith to his contract for another year then so be it.

Lol
Geelong were not very 'humanitarian' when Tim Kelly wanted to go back home to WA the first time around.
Geelong didn’t seem to care about Tim Kelly human rights many years ago

If this peanut went to Collingwood, I'd HAVE to change clubs.
Buckley was bad enough.
Buckley was bad enough.
Gold Coast R1 ... would be perfect up there.
Absolutely ..100% agree. Contracted he is not going anywhere unless Bulldogs see its in their best interest.
Which means they probably will want 2 r1 picks or something way over the odds.
Whatever Bailey Smith is going through I hope he is really ok
No one wants to see a player who is struggling with the demands of afl fall over but it is a business too. Every club has to treat the players well yet they also have to think of them as assets. Its a professional sport and clubs have limited control on players now. A contract is one.

Mitch Duncans still got his contract thats been backended for 10 years to be paid out though? If Geelong fans comments are anything to go buy Duncan must be owed atleast 4.5 mill next year
