Latest news and rumours:

• Tom Barrass officially requests trade to Hawthorn
  • Duffield: Eagles want two first round picks - "It may have to be in this year’s draft rather than a future pick."
  • Morris: Josh Battle is set to join Barrass at Hawthorn in 2025 - Ralph: Unclear if Hawks will pay enough for Band 1

• Kysaiah Pickett interested in a trade
  • "Club and management are confident they can work through his concerns"
  • Daniels: Pickett’s preference is Fremantle. Fremantle are keen, but Bolton the priority. Getting both “not impossible”. West Coast “an option if things get complicated.”

• Jai Culley, Coen Livingstone, Loch Rawlinson in line for one-year deals (The West)
  
  
• Liam Baker and Shai Bolton

What a night for a Rory Lobb/Tim English hater like myself.

Absolutely no thanks on that one. Save the cash, spend some on Ainsworth, break records for Warner, pay Harley, save it and bank interest for all I care. Any option is better than market value salary for FA Tim English.

English's price has plummeted this year.
Six weeks ago there was talk of him getting $900 000 a year.
If he gets offered anywhere near that, the Dogs should let him go.

Don't get me started on the Lobster.
He actually had the balls to say he wanted out 2 weeks ago.
He thinks work ethic is a trotter at Gloucester Park.
Lazy as ****.

The Dogs should get rid of him for a salary dump.

 

[Free Agent]

I think if we are trying to get Curtin it should be a teens pick due to the fact he hasn't shown anything in his first year so value has decreased from when he was drafted. There's a slight red flag that he can't break through into the best 22 therefore we can't be trading for his value of last year's draft.

For trading he isn't a top 10 pick at all anymore.

If we obtain a pick 15/16 then that would be all we should offer now. Adelaide can't expect anything more on a player that hasn't done anything at AFL level.The suggestion of pick 8 is laughable now. He's value has decreased. Why isn't Adelaide playing him.

Work Ethic going around in the sixth would win more taps than him and has a less rude head.

Starting to get really worried that he hasn't re-signed

Do not want. Hopefully Flynn smashes it in the 2nd half of the year and the club realises what a misuse of cap space it would be

 

[Dom sheed pocket]

Got it. He is a gun kept out of the team by two defenders who are both over 32 years. Makes sense.

He’ll likely debut next week.

If he was on our list, he’d be first considered for role of 3rd tall.

Athletic, reads the play, good ball use.

Still a scrawny kid and needs to put on the kegs to improve his 1v1 defending, but he has all the tools.

You expose yourself with your lackadaisical view of him.

Waste of time discussing it, crows won't let him go this year after trading up for him

Rather use our 2nd pick on the Bus

No more than you expose youself with your very high opinion of him.

By the way, what is my view?

 

[Get_The_Gaff]

So Tyler Welsh kicks 3 vs the Allies, kick 8 in the Colts on the weekend yet has dropped out of the top 25? Crows would be licking their lips.

He is a tweener so he was always going to slide . If he had of put on a couple of cms to get to genuine KPP height I think he would have stayed up the order

 

[Get_The_Gaff]

I think Burgeil asks for a trade at seasons end . Just doesn't look happy or interested at the beagles .

Reminds so much of Oscar Allen. Crows are lucky. Wouldn't be surprised if he grows to 197cm as Oscar Allen did post draft day

Hopefully he does ask for a trade. Getting anything for him would be a bonus

Why would anyone give us anything for him though? And who would want him?
He's been too injured to show whether he's AFL quality, he's far more likely to get a game with us once he gets a good run at it

 

[Dylan82]

He'll go much higher. Goalkickers always do.

Bit of a lazy list from the HS in that article - just 7 non-Vics, with 4 of those tied to clubs via academy or father/son, Bo Allan falling just short of making it 5.

 

[Elite Pete]

Richmond apparently very keen in his draft year. Baker for Burgiel and our 2nd

 

[AsterixTheGaul]

Buss 17K 10H 10M for VFL dogs. Was under siege most of the time as the only tall back, got pushed off the ball a bit but reading of the play and distribution was pretty good.

How is Croft going? Both Croft and Busslinger are KPDers taken in first round in consecutive years.

There might be a greater acceptance if Buss is restless

 

[Westend]

We can get him on the cheap tuggs

Croft has been good. I’ve really only seen him playing as a forward. Has a crack at every contest and looks to have a huge tank. Been good for him playing in a strong team so there’s supply. If they are going to persist with Naughton as a forward I can’t possibly see how Naughton, JUH, Darcy and Croft all fit into the forward line especially when there’s English floating forward too. If Buss does head west they’ll almost certainly swing Croft into defence.

 

[Tugga27]

Don't really want him TBH Westie.
Bulldogs will probably offer him around $800 000.

 

[Yippy Yi Yeo]

Agreed, much better use of resources anyway

 

[Yippy Yi Yeo]

Rather keep burgiel and they can just take our 2nd

 

[Westend]

I still have the feeling he wants to come back....and will be with us next year

if we can get him cheaper the better

Someone on our board that gets good info said you guys have pulled out completely on the Tim English interest
