Trade Requested Bailey Smith

Remove this Banner Ad

Either Dogs accept the deal (it’s not even a bad deal, this draft is deep)

If the deal you’re referring to is Cats first + f2 for Smith, no doubt Dogs knock that back and send him to the draft. It’s impossible to swallow such a terrible deal for our club sending one of our key assets to a premiership competitor. Also his manager is the same as JUH’s so if we accept peanuts it sets a precedent.

No doubt a deal will be done and we won’t get his full value, but Cats f+f1 have to be involved or the more likely scenario of Cats trading up to satisfy Power.

He wants to come play for the team he’s old man played for

So those two are lying?

He lives in Tourqay with his siblings and loves to surf, not to mention most of his mates play for the Cats
Why would he give that up to move to Carlton?

Carlton fans tried pushing it the other day and both Edmund and Twomey answered it on SEN this week.
Edmund said it’s rubbish and Twomey flat out said no.

The reason he’s not playing has nothing to do with form, he’s best 22 when fit and healthy.

Believe it or not having to drive an hour to work is pretty common practice. Blake Acres lives down in Geelong but plays for Carlton without issue, SDK could still head off for a surf after work whether he lives in Geelong or Melbourne.

SDK for Baz would be about right in terms of trade value pre knee. Think the Dogs would have to chuck in a sweetener to get a deal over the line involving those two though.

Did you read what I said, Twomey and Edmund said it’s not happening.
That’s a pretty good sign that it’s not happening.

This thread is about Baz. Let’s not sidetrack it.

You'd turn down what you would consider 80c in the dollar, and instead lose him for absolutely nothing?

Makes enormous sense to me

Yeah but TK was twice the player Bailey is. It's not a comparison. The equivalent is a first and second
Geelong set the standard for what the bulldogs can expect to receive for Bailey Smith via the Tim Kelly trade. Two first rounders and two second rounders, now the bulldogs just need to ensure Geelong pays up.

It's the principle + collateral damage

Why should the Bulldogs let Geelong pull down their pants in front of a national audience ?
They'd be better served by either

a) making Geelong pay what the Bulldogs want

or

b) miss out altogether and Bailey can join the party atmosphere that is Punt Road Oval!!!!!

Geelong obviously have an interest in him otherwise they would not be trying to court him over. So instead of trying to get a player for the price of a Dominoes pizza. They should pay a steeper price (granted I do think $30 pizzas are a bit rich :p).

This has been said 100 times.
If an uncontracted dunkley was worth 2 picks in the 20s only there is there zero chance an uncontracted smith off an acl is getting pick 20ish this year and a possible top 10 pick next year. Zero.

Its certain that the cats will offer our 2024 r1 and a future 2nd. And certain that the dogs will ask for more steak knives.
The question is what the steak knives will be.
But it wont be a future 1st.

I must have missed all the times clubs do this and send players to the ND then.

Exactly. It comes down to tonight with how the trade will look. If Cats lose, they can probably get the trade done with one first and a couple seconds by trading up the draft board for pick 12-14.

If they win, their f1 is almost a guarantee to be involved as their first will be above pick 20 after academies, essentially making it a second round pick.

Fair point. His dad, Terry De Koning, actually played for the Bulldogs...

After this comment, I'm beginning to think you may not be the level headed, highly intelligent and incredibly on the ball List Manager you seem think you are :cool:
