Recommitted Bailey Smith [OOC 2024]

[Strapping Young Lad]

And then you woke up

Dogs have it in front of them at the moment.

How much do they want Watson, and can they keep Bailey next year?

 

[Euku]

It will be 4 + F1 for 5 + Smith

That is a really really bad deal that we will never do Bulldogs fans have been laughing at this as a joke

 

[Euku]

Next year we would ask for your first and more

You're kidding yourself.

Your current first was already rejected now you think a 1 pick upgrade and a lower first rounder will be enough

Lol

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

Lol

I’m not kidding myself.

Dogs have an offer in front of them. They might not get a better one in 12 months time.

Watson is there for the taking…everyone knows Dogs are keen on him, but how keen are they?

 

[Mr Meeseeks]

Your F1 is gonna be late, you guys were very good at the end of the season when winning couldnt move your finishing position. Top 8 pick for mine for next year

So, Smith for a 10+? No thanks. Hes worth a high first rounder or a couple late ones and we all know it

He sure is, no argument here.

Top 8 prediction is very generous though, we would need Smith to help get there!

 

[Doggy]

I’m not kidding myself.

We'd probably get him anyway without your shit 1 pick upgrade

Presumably not keen enough to sell Smith for massive unders.......

Didn’t an OOC Adam Cerra go for pick 6?

Even if we can’t keep him, why would we gamble on your team next year? Give us pick 5 in a straight swap and we can talk.

You must think we’re playing finals next year, good to see you’re on board.

I'm not even taking 5 no way

 

[Bald]

I'm not even taking 5 no way

Nor am I. But I’d be more inclined to take it over a future first and a one pick upgrade.

 

[Caligo]

I don't understand why people are calling him a goal kicker. Hasn't he kicked 10 goals in total in the last two years?

 

[Euku]

Go away hawks just go away

 

[Outback Footy]

It will be 4 + F1 for 5 + Smith

Id say no thanks to that

 

[smish]

That is a really really bad deal that we will never do Bulldogs fans have been laughing at this as a joke

Can probably say goodbye to Watson then

 

[Caligo]

Go away hawks just go away

Yes please. I want nothing to do with this until he is out of contract.

 

[TylerDurden]

We'll take Wiz at 4. Nothing surer.

 

[Golden_6]

We'll take Wiz at 4. Nothing surer.

Just on this, has it ever occurred to anything that maybe Watson isn't the player they're actually targeting? It would pretty silly to let all clubs know the exact player they want and trade a bunch of high end picks, especially when it's a very real chance that particular player could be picked up earlier.

Power usually keeps things closer to his chest in this department. Maybe they are equally comfortable with all the talents around that pick (Curtin, Durrsma, Watson & McKercher) and might be putting out a bit of info to see if it ruffles any of the teams above them.

Hopefully not keen enough to take that garbage offer

 

[Euku]

Take Watson then plenty of really good players to choose from at 6, hawks fans sound delusional and desperate

 

[Cudi]

We'll take Wiz at 4. Nothing surer.

And we will take McKercher or Sanders as we need young mids, we don't rate so far ahead of anyone else.

We didn't trade up specifically for Watson.

Yep. The last time I felt really confident about how the draft would fall was 2020 when everyone was saying:
Adelaide-Thilthorpe
NM-McDonald
Sydney-DGB
Hawthorn-Phillips
And in the end only one of those was right.

Very hard to guess (Twomey tends to do it well though).

We need Wiz more than anyone.

Totally agree - rumours of who players want in the draft this far out are always based on one person saying it and then everyone else repeating it until it's fact. I imagine we like a number of players up the top, Watson being one of them. Same with Hawthorn and Durrsma.
