I rate him.

Elliot, Stringer, WHE, Fasolo. Kirby is also up and coming (VFL goal leader) All of them are game changers on their own.

Doesn't solve our key position problems and Reid will most likely have to play KPF again but we will have probably the strongest mid/small forward group in the league.

I'm not entirely sure what's happened over the past 2 seasons, and with reports coming out that he has had a fall out with the dogs, a fresh start may do him good.

I suspect the bulldogs supporters would easily expect a top 10 pick for him given he is contracted?

His 2015 form was so good, one of my favourite players that year. His explosive power from stoppages and goal kicking ability was excellent. I would love him at the bombers.
 
Your point is?

I don't even entertain the notion of Kelly at Carlton so you don't have a point to start with.

Stringer is a good plan B. Your side could do with a dynamic half forward.

Pick 3 - Best available midfielder
Pick 17 (Gibbs) for Stringer
 
He would be a great fit at the crows as a forward that can go through the midfield. Imagine stringer if he is getting the 4th or 5th best defender every week. He would slot straight into cameron's spot if he leaves..forget gibbs...cmon crows make it happen

Absolutely no way he goes interstate with his 2 kids living here.

Also no way we would trade him for unders when he is contracted for next year. We would back ourselves in to change his mind
 
Stringer is 22 or 23, has been an All Australian and numerous times throughout his career has been compared to Ablett senior. A keen Doggies fan has put together a highlights reel of him on YouTube that sums him up pretty well... and that is f@@king incredible. You'd think we'd get something pretty good for him in a trade.
This reminds me of when Nathan Brown left to play finals at Richmond.

And that increases his trade value?

Chris Masten is like Simon Black. Can we please have a first-rounder for him? After all, he's been compared to Simon Black.

I'd go Kelly for our 2017/18 firsts and Stringer for pick 17 (Gibbs)

We would probably get a young Adelaide player on top of the Gibbs for 17
 
Finals start tomorrow, people should be focusing on that , 8 very good teams competing.
Excrement like Barrett have no interest in reporting about anything positive in footy. If Stringer gets traded it wont be for another 5 weeks anyway.
Mark Stevens justs reads Bigfooty.

I'd at least want a top 7 pick for Jake. His current output is not worth that granted but he is talented, contracted and young.

We need to stand firm here, yet the dogs list management aren't often the ones who stand firm in these scenarios.

You're a funny bugger .... in fact i'd go as far as to say you're the village idiot of Big Footy ..
Just keep those laughs coming and one day people might even buy tickets to see you perform live.

What did he say that was wrong? All of those were players recruited to play his role. He's not saying they're better than him, he's saying we have players earmarked for where we could integrate Stringer so yes, that area isn't our priority.

Your reaction is pure overs. Should have saved it for a rainier day.
 
Seems like a decent fit for Carlton, but Kelly should be their first priority (if available).
A trade will be interesting though, clearly the Dogs aren't going to let him go for cheap but his output from the last two years doesn't really warrant a top 10 pick.
If the Dogs trade Stringer it has the potential to make us the biggest players this trade period. We'll get a top 10 pick for him and have a lot of cap room as a result.
 
Pick 21 for Stringer?

Worth a look at least.
Hopefully we get some out of Rockliff, Kelly, Smith and Stringer.

Motlop is sure to be linked to us as well.

I think it's not a look you'd get if you offered 21 for Stringer. More likely Bevo go full Hulk on Brad Scott

It's a tricky one.
As he has shown glimpses of very damaging footy.
However hasn't been very good this year hence dropping value abit.

Do you want any of our players?
Goldy could be a trade but we may need him.
