He is destined for the Navy Blue

Can't believe I actually know who this is now.

 

[Bletch]

Surely we want a pick under 30 somehow? Austin wants another pick this year of he can get it.

You'd think so.

We don't need to lose him. Top-10 in B&F for a finalist. Contracted.

You'd think so but don't know how Bulldogs achieve that.

Maybe get Richmond involved?
F2 for Richmond's pick 24 and then on-trade 24?

 

[Coops93]

If the club falls apart due to losing Owies and Kennedy, we haven't built anything much to begin with.

Agreed. Not sure why everyone is so concerned. The "You don't know what these guys mean the club" kind of mentality, well across the past 2 yrs when we're supposed to be in premiership contention we've really only had 10 great weeks of footy. 2023 season we were basically saying sack Voss for half a season, then went on a great run. This year was very patchy.

If these 2 are so crucial to the culture of a "premiership contender" from 2 yrs of patchy form then we bigger issues. I'd suggest they're great guys who were well liked, but I'd be surprised if either were really a barometer for the club off-field, or indeed on field. Kennedy in particular is a fan favourite, but I don't think he's ever been hugely important either way to our success on field. I liked him too, but he's a 18-22 level player and always was with us.

Pick 44 is useless to us

Can it be packaged with Carroll to get something ahead of the Ben Camporeale nomination?

 

[The Bighouse]

John Noble in a Mega-Trade

 

[bmaurizio]

yup we need shot at a KPD and there should be a few available early to mid twenties

 

[Banga19]

Mentaly preparing myself to lose Kenendy for bugegr all. Feel like we're trying to clear list spots more than getting anything meaningful in return. Hope I'm wrong.

Maybe get in on the Smith trade to help grease the wheels

 

[gbatman]

Soapy V would Kennedy get us Riley Garcia?

 

[Aphrodite]

Tom Morris

Staying put isn’t he (3yrs)?

 

[Stamos]

Soapy V would Kennedy get us Riley Garcia?

He just signed a 3 year contract with the Dogs

 

[GoBlues!]

I hate this one. Played every game, more than capable on baller and half forward. Best clubman. This will hurt the club.

Yeah lets hang onto Fantasia for another year instead.

Best clubman and popular player, will probably leave a bad taste with team mates.

No doubt Clarko will come calling.

I haven't heard. We were keen but I think it was knocked on the head early

 

[jj1978]

Kennedy isn't leaving because those 3 are signed.
Maybe you could argue that Owies is leaving because of the Durdin contract.

But if right now I had to choose 1 of Durdin or Owies to keep, as long as he passes the medical with his shoulders, I'm picking Durds. He's way more dynamic. Has upside.

I know it's easy to want to forget Fantasia.

 

[Monty1978]

Yeh. I hate it as well. I keep going back to 2-3 year extensions for Durdin Cottrell Young before their deals were done. Just nuts

It has cost us players like Kennedy who is much better player, and IMO that is a massive mistake

Owies yes Kennedy no …. Kennedy wants midfield time… was not gonna get it ahead of the slower types

 

[Stamos]

Filth sold their future

 

[Bfevola]

So what’s changed in this so called mega deal from yesterday? Nothing i can see.

Haha Port, you just didnt play tough enough with your arch enemy.

Collingwood always get what they want.

Hope it blows up in their faces.

 

[Opium]

We are making the tough decisions to become better. Good clubs do this

If it was about just keeping good people both would stay. Tough business

We need to get games into Binns, Moir, Lord, Wilson next season. We need to make some tough decisions. I wonder if we keep Carroll now?
