Sanders and Gallagher go past him next year at the dogs. Maybe gold coast for Rosas as he'd help Rowell

I still think the dogs could get petracca and he might end up in that deal too

Haven't you heard Rosas is going to North?

 

[Bald]

I doubt there's a single person involved in AFL list management that would take any notice whatsoever of Bevo's selections. The bloke is a laughing stock.

Hi Kane how are you?

 

[Del28562]

Haven't you heard Rosas is going to North?

I'd say 7-8 clubs will be keen

 

[jimmytigs]

guess we will hear something about macrae daniel & any others over the next couple of days,unless maybe they are set on joining one of the remaining 6 clubs

Their VFL team is still playing finals.

 

[The Worpedo]

Pies bound

 

[Testekill]

I think he can still play in the starting centre square lineup somewhere but he's just gotten pushed out and is too slow to play outside.

I can see North, Saints and Magpies as the main teams who will have interest.

 

[freoforever94]

 

[Bulldogs85]

 

[Giant Pete]

Pies I reckon.

 

[Golden_6]

Pies bound

This is actually a pretty solid fit and might be a good call. Mitchell looks cooked so might be able to slot straight into that role as an inside distributor.

He'll actually be very good in this role but we simply don't have the ability to allow him to do it.

 

[Skipper_]

Sam Draper was a prophet.

 

[T2B_]

How slow is he? We love slow mids.

 

[beside the seaside]

Hope we're in the picture.

 

[cdcanman]

If the Pies can afford him, or the Dogs are willing to eat enough of his contract, then they are a reasonable fit. His lack of pace isn’t ideal for them either, but they are so shallow in there that it would be worth a gamble.
North would be the other fit from their point of view, not sure Macrae would want to go that route but I can’t imagine North won’t at least kick the tires

 

[bulldogs201616]

Be lucky to get a 2nd round pick this hurts.

 

[BEEG]

This was a lock, look at how he has been used for 2 seasons.

 

[Bulldogs85]

Hope we're in the picture.

Sam Edmund has linked you guys to Macrae

 

[Shade]

Be lucky to get a 2nd round pick this hurts.

He has 3 years left on an expensive contract.

You would be lucky to get a 3rd for him.

 

[Petrie4PM]

to north please

 

[Bulldogs85]

Someone on our board said it’s not big of a contract as some people think

Why should the dogs eat any of his contract ?

He wants to leave
Doggies will just get a rubbish pick in the 3rd round for a 30 year old
His new club takes him as is

North bound imo

 

[Daka]

I don't think he is a huge loss for the Dogs anymore, he is a depth player at best.
I was thinking game has passed Macrae by.

 

[Bald]

It’s not hugely expensive. Around 700k which is around 200k over the average wage.

Pricy but not an anchor by any means.

 

[GetDimmaBack]

Has been a great servant, 249 games, 3 times AA, premiership player. Sad to see him go.

Would really suit the Saints,
I think.

Deserves to play out his career in the midfield, not as a flanker or sub.
