Even if Fagan left, the club looks like it’s in a strong enough position with a strong enough list and culture that it wouldn’t be the end of the world anyway.

Could turn out to be a blessing in disguise depending on who we get in.

Daniher was a free agent, no trade needed

On that subject do we know yet if Dunkley is a free agent?

He isn't. Drafted in 2015.

 

[Mego Red]

Sorry I forgot Motlop, Watts and Rockliff too. My mistake

I thought you were remembering those, which is why you said "real quality"?

 

[Mego Red]

Mate, we played in a grand final last year lol. If we weren’t professional, gee wizz, imagine how we’d go if we WERE professional?

I imagine that's his point.

I think, since 2016, the Bulldogs have underachieved in comparison to the talent on their list.

2017 obviously - 100% underachieved. Got way too comfortable with a premiership.

2018-2019 was almost a small little rebuild for us if you look at the changes we made and how young we were in this period.

2020 was just a weird year in the QLD hub. I barely even count this as a season.

2021 made a grand final.

I think when you break it down, I wouldn’t call it professionalism other than 2017.

People forgot what an age gap we had after rocket eade went for a flag with trades over draft (and when we did draft was a bit poor) that 2017-18 period had to happen even if we knocked out vs the eagles first round.

Doesn't quite make sense. More likely Dunkley is more of money than culture imo.

Dunkley left for family reasons he got an extra year at the Lions too

I think Dunkley looks really nice and I like it that he is good at football.

That sounded pretty creepy to me.

What if he looked like shit but he was good at football?

 

[Hollow Knight]

What if he looked like s**t but he was good at football?

Wasn’t aware that this was the Clayton Oliver thread.

What’s Josh gonna think when he sees the Brissy boys dropping their pants at the pub when Eagle Rock comes on? Unprofessional!

Ahh, please splain?

Unprofessional!

It’s not any worse then what Bulldogs players have done over the years

Weren't Dogs players the worst behaved at the Brownlow?

Because they wore sunglasses?

So much brouhaha over a couple of guys getting sloshed post season. 30 years ago people would have had a chuckle and moved on.

If we can get Bowes and 7 as is being reported in the media this evening as a chance this makes the Dunkley trade much easier.

To be honest I thought it was pretty easy anyway.

Honestly probably true but this way the doggies get an actual top 10 pick which is pretty nice.

I'd be fine with that.

Brisbane wouldn't

 

[conrad_437]

Rayner feels like a boom or bust type scenario. Ceiling is quite high, but could just as easily turn into a forward who occasionally would pop up and rope us all back in to his 'potential'.

Dunkley is a gun mid where the worst you'll get is an A- player. I'd take Rayner for Dunkley because I feel like that's a risk worth taking, but wouldn't want to pay any more. If anything, Dunkley is comprehensively worth more than Rayner.
