Speculation Riley Garcia

[The Nostradamus]

He's played a fair bit of half forward at AFL level, but with the occasional CBA as well (pretty sure he's had more than Macrae this year)
He's tough , quick and loves to tackle. His kicking can be a touch 'loopy' but that's no difference to Macrae. A lot of Bulldog fans really want to keep him.
Port very interested apparently

Sounds like what we need and as mentioned we are apparently keen

Wouldn’t mind looping him in to a potential Caleb Daniel deal

Garcia not wanting to jeopardise his role in the GF sprint by announcing a trade request yet.
Hope he stays, but can understand him moving on if he does

Kennedy and Garcia are extraordinarily different players. Kennedy is quite a bit better imo but they play nothing like one another.

They’re not alike at all lol

 

[THE_GUN]

Should go to the Eagles as he is from perth
also has more of a chance to get a long career there than the doggies
but 2 year deal not really going to turn his head and make him move clubs

whats his value ? pick #50+ ?

 

[SweatOnMySkin]

Probably a 3rd rounder or something, which I think will end up a bargain as I rate Garcia. But hard to expect more when we dont use him

 

[The Inbetweener]

Probably a pick in the 40s. Thats what we got for Lipinski when he left while being on the fringe of the 22.

Lipinski was a better player at the same time

Think he will stay

From a footballing perspective, it doesn’t make a heap of sense for him to leave. Macrae & Smith are moving on in his exact position & Libba & Treloar are in their final years for a possible move to the midfield in the next couple of years.

Will he be a 22 regular next year though? Probably not.

Makes sense if it’s Eagles. At Port he’s probably further back than he is now so that would be strange

Should come to the Eagles for a 3rd rounder. Could end up adding Baker, Graham, Garcia and Robertson to help with our midfield for 2025.

Yep at that stage he needs to be playing AFL week in and out. Best chance is with the Eagles and probably the most $$ as well. Not everyone wants to go back home though.
