See Western Bulldog champion, be it Mathew Boyd has yet to resign.Has been a prolific stats getter over many seasons especially contested stats, is hard and tough and still has another 2 years in him , one would think. With his experience, he would be one to recruit if at all possible.
Boyd is a champion, definite A grade midfielder. And the Doggies would trade for someone like Gorringe in a heart beat, they are screaming out for a young key fwd/ruck. But Boyd is 32, that's like 70 in footy years?
Now Ryan Griffen... 28yo in his prime, make it happen Stuyd!

Boyd yet to be given another deal if you could pick him up for next to nothing big win for you guys clearance machine not the best kick but he would feed it out to you're better users
Corkie,
corkie,
yes he is 32, but has had no major injuries in his long career. He has played 19 games this season and averaged 26 plus touches a game, in a side that has only won 7 games this season.!! IMO, he wud be a good recruit for us......whether he wud be available , well that's another issue. May well want to play out his days at the Bulldogs.Then again, the Bulldogs might not resign him as they go with youth policies. They delisted Daniel Cross with this policy, and look what happened here. Cross went to Melbourne and has been a solid contributer . Fact is. the Bulldogs could of done with Cross for another season or two, but they let him go prematurely imo.Thus that's why I say Boyd wud be a good get.

Trade period is something i'm not much of an expert on
If we WERE to get a Malceski or Frawley when is the earliest/latest we would know about it?

Day after the Grand Final earliest it would be confirmed that they are going anywhere.

To be honest, I don't think we need any of the players available through Free Agency. I don't think at this stage any of Frawley, Higgins and Malceski have become any more 'likely'. They're all just 'a bit likely'.
As I mentioned, players in these spots I don't think we're lacking. I think we should be throwing the money at someone like Minson. Just a main ruckman to give presence in the middle and has a heap of experience. Or a Bellchambers.
Nicholls, Smith and Gorringe could all be good. But none of them (outside of Smith in his first year) have strung together more than a third of a season together at a time. That to me is an immediate concern, and something that should be fixed.
The count down at the start of the game was showing pics of people leaving the club, Auld, Bock,Murphy and K. Interestingly I didn't see Warnock on there, is he staying another year?

I'm hearing he is staying but not really from anyone solid.
I guess a lot would depend on what happens with trades/FA's
I know he struggled to get a game this year but we could do worse than to hold on to him for another year as a back up for May and Rory

At worst,he provides an experienced head in our NEAFL team. At best provides valuable depth for our seniors. He gets my vote to stay if we dont get much experience in the off season
You get the impression he's well liked around the club too..the boys really get around him out on the ground

In a team that is screaming for experience and looking to trade or draft VFL players in, getting rid of someone like Warnock seems an incorrect move.

Would'nt hurt keeping him on another year , not sure what Matty would want though , not sure if a 31yo would be all that keen to just hang around for the odd game.
Agrre.No-one thinks he'll ever be AA, but I don't think you'll find anyone much better at the job he does in other comps

Apparently Ryder wants to be traded to Brisbane.
He's exactly the sort we should be chasing if the rumours are true.

I'd be making sure any playing coming from Essendon takes the 6 months that's apparently on offer before signing them.

Our main ruck. Or at least share duties to relieve the burden off our other young rucks.
