Lol **** to sum up what I just sent to Doggy.

All the leaks floating around the industry have come from player managers themselves, not from the Doggies and not from Power, we're actually air-tight in that department. Power has been busy for the last few months meeting with alot of player managers (As is his job) - word around the club (from someone who works there every day) is we're into another unnamed KPD and more moves will be happening that haven't hit the media as of yet.

Sit tight, as I've been told.

Dunkley all but gone as well, known within the playing group now.
 
Zaine’s probably a nice bloke but he’s never exactly come back from a break looking jacked. Nothing abnormal about a player overdoing it on Mad Monday but to do it when you’ve had a poor season and you’re out of contract (and it looks way too early in the day)…

Even when playing you can see he’s from the Brian Lake school of training. He’s got a bit of skin fold for the forward to grab .

Watch Zaine go and have the biggest pre-season ever and come back looking like Chris Hemsworth
 
I like Dunks, we won't easily replace him despite our plethora of mids, but getting Port's first would be a good outcome for us as well. It's been well discussed but seems a much better option than him nominating Brisbane. We'd have 2x 2022 firsts plus any future picks to throw around, or just draft a couple of potential guns to time up with Baz, Naughts, Marra, Darcy etc.

Suspect though, from everything that's been posted, that Power is looking to turn the Dunkley return + what we already have into win-now pieces.

In a way I hope he does nominate Port and we just get that done. He's a good player and contributes a lot to our midfield but we absolutely must re-balance our list and this is probably the only way to properly do it. The team hit a wall this year and if we don't get bold it'll just happen again next year.

Worst comes to worst, we end up with 2 first round picks and we use them to load up on the next gen.

I’m fairly confident that Brisbane is where he is headed.
 
Jack Henry is 194-195, I’m confident he can hold down chb and he genuinely intercepts.

Ollie is the hard one. I would trial him as a intercept defender. If he improved his work rate and pressure I’d play him as a high half forward.
No Jack Henry isn't very good, we don't need tall forwards and as for defence Geelong's system works not the players as much
 
Oliver Henry has been playing back with Moore & Howe. He seems to go alright there. The Henry brothers would be a decent back cover.

Always plays forward, both at AFL and VFL level.

Jack plays defense for Geelong, with odd stints forward when they need him.

Really disappointing we are taking about trades we should be playing this weekend vs Pies

41 points up and to lose to Freo is just disappointing and makes alarm bells ring
 
Oliver played back a few games to cover I think either Howe or Murphy.

Don’t think so, certainly not in any of the games I saw. Stats have shots on goal and marks inside 50 in nearly every game this season and has only had two rebound 50s all season.
 
Imagine the player we've been talking to is Harris Andrews. It'd make the Brisbane request fun.
