. I think he recently signed a massive contract, but can the Bulldogs continue to play him, JUH, and Darcy in the same forward line?

[Monsterdarlz]

They dont have trade capital, and cant obtain it without trading out some big assets. Need a top 10 pick to even start the conversation

Meant for year I mean *

 

[hawkman]

Can we offer the Lions
jacob koschitzke



Free to good home and we will even cover 75% of his salary

Only 75%?

Plus you may need to add a pick 1 just for someone to take him

 

[THE_GUN]

Only 75%?

Plus you may need to add a pick 1 just for someone to take him

OK we will cover 100% and throw in pick #13 we get from the eagles for Baker

Would be hilarious if they picked up Josh Schache

The home coming, the prince foretold!

 

[Sqotty from office works]

TEEEEEEEEEEEEXXX

 

[Blackhawk42]

They just won't have enough picks to get it done.

Mitch Lewis would not surprise me that much

Best they can offer is a future first.

Wouldn't make any sense considering he's a long shot to play a single game in 2025.

 

[Cmarsh]

TEEEEEEEEEEEEXXX

He's an Adelaide clubman through and through.

 

[jumperfan]

Membrey would be a cheap short-term option, not sure he'd want to leave Victoria though.

 

[Sqotty from office works]

He's an Adelaide clubman through and through.

I was being facetious Ruth.

I was being facetious Ruth.

Couldnt see him being a...Walker...

 

[Cookie]

Brisbane might be in a spot of bother.
Hipwood and Cameron aren't going to get any better. Means the burden is going to fall to an inconsistent Rayner, an second year player Lohmann, and Ah Chee.
Maybe someone in the two's can step up, but there's not much around to import.

 

[rye]

sam darcy will be a brisbane player in 2026.

bookmark it.

 

[crankygeese]

Starcevich, Rayner, Lohmann, Morris, Fletcher, Answerth, Neale, Ashcroft, Bailey are all out of contract in the next 2 seasons, and all of them will attract serious pay rises while being targeted by other clubs.

Daniher's money doesn't come out of the cap next year, because he wasn't medically retired, so unless he waives all of his money next year they'll still be on the hook for it, though I'd imagine he'll accept a partial payout.

They have 1228 DVI points for Ashcroft and Marshall and are going to need somewhere between 2400 and 3000 points. They can probably get another 300-400 points by trading their 1st rounder this year.
Guys like DevRob, Tunstill, Prior will be lucky to get them 400 points combined.
Then they'll need to trade their future 2nd and 3rd at the very least to make up the difference, but probably the future 1st as well considering the change in DVI scaling next year making their future 3rd a lot less valuable.

So they have little no draft capital for the next 2 seasons and not much cap space to work with.

Best case scenario is Morris or some other kids take a step up, and after that the only realistic options are Membrey as a Free Agent or they get Stringer on the cheap if the Bombers are actually keen to get rid of him for next to nothing.

They'll still be good with Lohmann, Bailey, Cameron, Rayner, thrown into the mix, but they'll need to get creative in how they restructure their forward line. Because they won't be able to replace Daniher with anything besides players from the scrap heap.

Elliott Himmelberg would be mad not to go here.

Will join the Suns as a free agent tomorrow

 

[Ash1337]

Will join the Suns as a free agent tomorrow

what a let off if that lions didn't chase him. Hipwoood & Himmelberg would turn the forward line into a key back feasting.
