Took about 1 minute to confirm. I knew from just scrolling past because I saw no Carlton players in the featured comments and given I follow a lot of Carlton players they ordinarly would be the featured comment as they are mutual follows. There weren't any, so I spent 1 minute scrolling through to confirm.

and it was shown by others that you weren’t correct, it was shown multiple players liked it.

Re-read that you stated no comments, I don’t see it as an issue

Bit of a weird situation re Stocker.
Unless we could get decent value for him, I don't see the point in trading him to Hawks (unless Teague & Austin really don't rate him).
Seems like he was heavily a Bolts/SOS favourite.
He just gives me bad vibes from what I see of him on Instagram. Wouldn't be opposed to trading, we wouldn't really know what we've lost if he goes.
Only downside is the media. They would hammer us if he left.

On another note, here's hoping Crouch signs with Port. Would put Wines very much back in the picture.


Have seen nothing of the sort on his Insta.
 
Stocker will 'fit in' once he gets his opportunity to play seniors and cements his spot. There's no better way to bond with your team mates than putting your body on the line and basking in the victory in the rooms afterwards. He's played 4-5 senior games under Bolton and we were belted in most of them.. not good for individual or team morale.

maybe, either way a i reckon a few wins will help him settle.

I played a lot of team sports growing up, we were successful but i never gelled with most of my teammates. It's not always a big deal though, i loved playing and we won a lot.

You don't have to be liked, or like your teammates to enjoy a game.

Yes all of this, earn respect on the field, a few high fives in appreciation, a bear hug or 2, give him a nick name (not malicious) to suit his personality and he should be off and running.

In regards to Cripps taking him under his wing from a footy sense yes, from a mind set sense no. we should have qualified people in the club to handle ha Sh$t, not ex footballers or fitness gurus.

Not claiming this is the case with Stocker nor am i a expert in this field. In sales when building a team, many times the more arrogant, out there, staff of mine were really the opposite in reality. some times arrogance was just a security blanket to cover their insecurities. In instances like this a sarcastic snicker, an eyeball roll, or some form of isolation can have detrimental effects.

I found acknowledging their strengths, by stroking their ego and them give them guidance in regards to how they can enhance their self proclaimed greatness. nothing changes team perception as hard core results.

It's a different think to like a post than to comment on it. I'm not here to draw assumptions or try and put anything out there about Stocker, but the effort it takes to comment is far greater than the effort taken to like a post and there is some distinction that can be made there.

I think that's a tedious perspective, the distinction is negligible.
 
Probably don't even have to do that. He can specify any terms in his contract.

Nothing stopping him from requesting a reserved parking space right outside the front door of Ikon Park.

There's only one club who can satisfy that arrangement.

thylacine60 has this written into his membership package each year.

Didn’t you also say we were into JDG?

It's not difficult to imagine a situation where the client manager gets in touch with the club, asking whether they're willing to talk.
It's then not difficult to imagine the club saying; "Sure, let's have a chat"

That in no means then suggests that the club is/was actually interested in the player.
 
I have it from 2 seperate Bulldogs insiders (second hand- but reliable) that both Hunter and Bailey Smith have been told to explore their options after incidents in the hub post finals. Not sure if it's related to throwing Caleb Daniel into the pool??

Hard to believe with Smith, he's a gun.
Heard this one but still find it extremely hard to believe, especially with Smith. Would have to have been incredibly bad to turf him.
