Haven’t heard to much about josh kelly? Is he one that’s still in play, or that horse bolted?

From what I heard a month ago, and still hearing strongly I think he might have ruled out Dunkley early

 

[jj1978]

I think Collingwood would not be too concerned if JDG heads off due to money. Unlike * they're handling this sensibly, they've got a price and an offer to him that they think is fair. They've looked after him through some situations and if he wants to head off after all that then he's not one they want in the club. And moving him off fixes up some of their salary cap woes in one quick fix.

It's a win win for them, either they keep a quite talented rascal on their list for less than market value or they free up cap space and get good compensation in a trade.

 

[The Greek Freak]

Would love Dunkley, and if they were keen to let him go should be a pretty easy transaction for both sides. Austin connection helps.
Should be as simple as 7, 27 to the Dogs for Dunkley and 12. Values Dunkley at 16 which is about right, gives dogs nearly 1100 needed points to match Ugle-Hagan bid. And then flick Essendon 12 for Saad which I'd say they'd take.

Thank heavens for that. Didn't want him anyhow, money hungry, too much baggage and inconsistency.

This!

It’s understood the player himself was open to the possibility of exploring a switch to Princes Park, but the Blues have been busy elsewhere in the trade space under the guidance of list management boss Nick Austin and national recruiting manager Mick Agresta.

Incorrect plural of Latin words piss me off eg formulas instead of formulae, forums instead of fora, stadiums instead of stadia, consortiums instead of consortia. Also those who, when referring to a singular, use the plural eg data instead of datum, criteria instead of criterion.

I clicked like with my computer mice...

I had a chuckle at that

I’m hoping that’s our Neale trade and the club is playing it super close to their chests. To me that’s the obvious one which no one is talking about and would make each party happy.

The statement is made far too often at this time of the year, by far too many.

 

[BuxbaumBixby]

With all the latest trade goss, it sounds like the only player still possibly on the midfielder radar is Wines. And I don't see him moving. So I think we should start to get comfy with the idea of Saad and Williams being the only gets this offseason.

In a post match earlier in the season - Wines gave Voss major credit for Port's approach and attitude. Sounded to me like there was a solid bond between the two. So here's a dream scenario - get Voss as Senior Assistant, and Wines aswell.

Make it so.

 

[The Blue Weirdo]

Ok, if we are into Dunkley I propose this trade:

Carlton - Pick 7, 27 and 45
Bulldogs - Dunkley, Pick 13

I cbf trying to work out the points difference but it should help them immensely to cover the bid for JUH. Surprised me but the dogs don’t have a second this year

My only reticence to doing this is we only have pick 13 for Saad and that’s too much to give for him. Maybe the campaigners can throw in 41 as well....still makes me sick though

Or 27 and our future 1st. for Dunkley. Then split this year 7 for Saad?

The 24-year-old forward now has three traditional Victorian powerhouses fighting over his signature.

That will remedy their culture problem.

 

[Matty411]

Today I wonder two things...

1. If the JDG thing has Dustin Martin vibes around it from a number of years back. Was out the door, but noone wanted him at that price so returned to the club with his tail between his legs and a smaller contract.
2. If Barbazza and a few bluemourers are pulling back a little to douse the hype i.e. our interest is getting too much publicity. I don't believe we're out of the Oliver or Dunkley race just yet - there are still weeks until it all kicks off.

Tom Browne

 

[fishncripps]

Probably because he only kicked 5 goals from 16 games this year?

Don't see that as a massive problem, he contributes enough in score involvements/other areas and GWS' forward line was dysfunctional at the best of times this year. He's only 21 and we wouldn't have to sell the farm like we would others.
He is also a genuine small forward and not one we have to try and manufacture like fisher/cunners.

 

[ferrisb]

its going to be a long off season.

Still more enjoyable the long on-seasons....

 

[StandByyourMan]

It seems improbable now that we will not recruit another a grade player, or at least break our wrists doing so.

 

[agro]

Dows name popping up from other clubs.

Teague doesn’t rate Dow, will be traded, we’ll probably take a third rounder at this stage.

I don’t agree - but this what I’ve heard.

 

[StandByyourMan]

JDG was fake news from the get go. Never any interest in him.
