Trade Requested Bailey Smith [reportedly headed to Geelong]

[Strapping Young Lad]

If he comes he comes but I’d rather we get Battle and release Weddle into the midfield. He can IMO do what Smith can do but will be better.

It’s not an either/or.

Battle is an UFA.

I love Weddle and wish we drafted him instead of Busslinger, and get that underrating Bailey is practically a sport for some Hawks supporters at this point, but… this is a particularly laughable take based on all available evidence.

I’m not under rating him at all. I just think Weddle will be better in the midfield and hopefully we put him there soon. Just my opinion

A sex offender? maybe nuffy or muppet or something would be more appropriate!

10/10, great effort.

Heard reports Pies have shown interest. Personally think it's a huge risk. Some players never recover their pace after an ACL, and without that, he's just an average mid with a sub-par kick. For the money and trade capital he'd command, I'd prefer that we bow out.

You’re about 7-8 weeks behind my man.

It’s down to three - cats / hawks / staying.

It was decided a long time ago let's be honest.

Smith made his decision months ago.

+1

I'd take Weddle over Smith.

Correct - Geelong.

 

[Kobe Gryant]

Correct - Geelong.

We keep going the way we're going and you'll get a pretty good return out of this.

Let's say we end up with pick 7, and get band 1 compo for Stengle.

Straight swap pick 8 for Smith?

 

[hawkman]

Correct - Geelong.

Smith will be the main midfield man in Geelong which may be the major interest for him.

I do wonder though how Geelong have looked the last 7 weeks may see players lose interest in Geelong as they don't look a consistent top 4/8 team going forward

 

[TylerDurden]

Correct - Geelong.

Good luck to him on that one.

Fair and reasonable I’d say - we might need to send something back.

So which one is it?

Done to cats?
or Down to three?

Really fluid apparently

My mail from March was Geelong leading the way. But the media seem to have those three options with no more Collingwood. Is there a problem with what I’ve said?

If the Cats and Hawks could kindly both finish in the 11-13 range and render Bailey’s decision immaterial from the Dogs perspective that’d be just great.

Real bet each way areas

Bailey hasn’t chosen

I’ve given my mail multiple times on here.. go back and check it.
My main point was that Collingwood are out.

Don’t particularly want smith

Everyone has mail
Wether it should be in the spam folder is up for debate
Time will tell
Bailey hasn’t picked and isn’t close to

No probs - all the best with your mail.

It's almost july.
I'd be surprised if he hadn't decided already. These things generally are done in advance -- even if it's not officially.

If i were geelong, i know smith is only 23 turning 24 i think, i would take as many picks in draft right now before tassie come in.

Hawks and pies for me, wouldng be surprised if pies got him
