His first year from memory wasn't too bad, but we imploded in 2016 and his lack of skill really stood out. But yes work-rate etc was good, but so was that of the star players, who the young kids also had to learn off.He wasn't a great player but he added work-rate & run, his skills weren't great but I still thought he was handy for a couple of years.
Watch this space next year... All I'm saying.
Hopefully some clubs screw Geelong, Smith wouldn’t be interested in coming to us anyhow.No disrespect to you guys, but you are at a low point. Every Bulldogs fan I know would rather Bailey Smith goes to you guys for free, than get screwed unders by Geelong, a potential rival.
He actually would have no choice if we walked him to the PSD and you guys picked him.cannot imagine many players wanting to come across to us right now unfortunately.
That would be a pretty silly thing for the dogs to do thoughHe actually would have no choice if we walked him to the PSD and you guys picked him.
has any of this been explained? what is the actual reason for wanting out..That would be a pretty silly thing for the dogs to do though
Why is bailey wanting out? Seemingly disgruntled for over 3 years
No one really knows, but most guesses would be accurate, that he’s a self obsessed narcissist. Why the heck would we let Geelong walk all over us here? It also says to other players that unless the club who you want to go to is willing to play fair, you better be careful about requesting a trade because we won’t be pushed around.That would be a pretty silly thing for the dogs to do though

I want to get him to 100 games. Good bloodlinesI want to get big sexy another tiger flag
Maurice doesn't kick enough goals, he is strictly defensive forward.
Seth Campbell looks promising but play very high up the ground.
with Bolton going out we are losing 30+ goals. on a bad year for him.
West played 21 games this yearI'd be in the ear of Jai Serong and Ryley West, 2 guys good enough for AFL but just cant get games at the moment.
I'd offer West midfield time to try and bring across and would be happy to offer a pick in the 20's for either.
Agree but we wouldn't be getting him until 2026, so by then we should've hit the draft and got our midfield locked in long term.To recruit a big key forward you need to set your midfield up first to show them they are the missing link.
He has played 36 games for 26 goals.MRJ kicked a goal a game in his last 7 games prior to injury. Mansell a goal a game this year. Thats as part of our lowest scoring and worst team in history. Clarke has also shown he knows where the goals are. With Campbell and a likely elite mid/fwd in the draft Owies is a big fat no from me.

We couldn't get Grimes or Astbury on the park during those years eitherI think some of us don’t realise how the Cotch, Dusty, Riewoldt draft rebuild actually went. They actually started competing in 2013, not 2017. It’s just during their development years they were up and coming stars with mostly spuds around them, a few commendable players don’t get me wrong, but nothing like the experience we still have in the team today.
This next crop we get will have fairly decent and recent premiership players guiding them. This draft could be our Cotch/Dusty draft in one go.
By 2027 if everything works out in the development and health of the list we will be back competing big time.
shhhhhWatch this space next year... All I'm saying.
Strange that he didn't get a gig the other day. He can play.I'd be in the ear of Jai Serong and Ryley West, 2 guys good enough for AFL but just cant get games at the moment.

Sam Edmund wouldn't happen to be a Carlton supporter would he?
No way, I would be helping Carlton out especially after the Yarran trade haha.
He has played 36 games for 26 goals.
Let's not act like he is an offensive weapon there is a role for him but he will never be a 30+ goal kicker.

Dogs did it to Dunkley then made the Grand Final the next year and he won the b&f the year later. He still left but Essendon didn’t get him and we got two more years from him, both he and club were professional about it. Geelong think they can just walk over small clubs, but they can GAGF.
Campbell runs well. Wing is his spot. MRJ actually looks better in the middle. Can't kick over a jam tin and rubbish in front of goal.He’s nearly 50, absolute list clogger.
We have Green, Campbell, Mansell and MRJ who could all kick about as many playing at the feet of Carlton forwards + their aged pension hasn’t kicked in.
He’ll be 30 by the time we are competing for finals unless a miracle happens. Would rather we develop the players we have.
