Mega Thread Trade and List Management discussion

...the Dogs would consider a trade for a key back or ruckman but would be extremely selective about their needs.

“We are open minded but we will be very selective. We won’t be doing anything for the sake of it.”

You know you like this.

Oh, for the good old days when the dogs were linked to every palooka over 190cm that had even dared to look sideways at a key position on their way back to the bench.

 

[go you pups]

Grigg is no good. Next please

Perfect fit for Carlton or St Kilda

He's not that bad imo, knows how to find the pill, just too many of his types at Adelaide.

Would grant have been on around the 300k mark? Suckling is probs costing us 50-80k a year more than Grant would have. What a steal! never mind the fact we keep our picks.

The first three mins of the dogs vs melbourne game at etihad is prefect example of how we will use Suckling

Dawson Simpson, who is an unrestricted free agent, is also a chance to join Greater Western Sydney in support of Shane Mumford.

Meanwhile, the Blues will trade out Chris Yarran to Richmond and Lachie Henderson to Geelong, and are understood to have put Levi Casboult on the trade table as new coach Brendon Bolton begins his time at the club.

Casboult has been linked to the Brisbane Lions as they seek a key forward, with the Lions also set to grab strong-bodied midfielder Tom Bell, who is returning to Brisbane for family reasons.
GREATER Western Sydney looks set for a busy trade period with Carlton continuing to eye off contracted tall Adam Tomlinson.

Given Carlton are seemingly targeting every GWS player, the AFL should just link the two clubs.

They could be called the Greater Western Sydney Blues.

Appropriate really.

The AFL’s investigation into information sharing between the Talia brothers continues to run, jeopardising a trade for Dogs defender Michael Talia.

Sydney showed interest in him halfway through the year but no trade has progressed given the AFL’s investigation.

**** you Talia you dickbiscuit!

We'll be lucky to have lube offered with our 6th rounder for him.

Nahas is 176cm but he can play taller maybe?

 

[VitalDread]

his leap can be match with any key forward

 

[Dogs Rule]

Strap a pair of stilts on him and he could be anything.

No VFL/SANFL/WAFL players. We don't need depth. Players must be consistent AFL players.

Not a fan of Picken, Morris or Boyd?

MATTHEW Suckling will officially become a Western Bulldog on Monday after a year-long scouting mission from his former assistant coach Luke Beveridge.

By far the best line in the article. Good to see we're going for the best we can get and not going to just throw away picks for mediocre players!

Are you a fan of Mark Austin, Lucas Markovic and Ed Barlow? I'm not sure we want to list the hundreds who don't make it against the half dozen who do. Doesn't seem sensible...

Thanks. I always get very hard when I read the name Butcher on this thread. Needs more Mason Shaw.

All jokes aside. If Dalrymple likes a bloke playing vfl or sanfl I'd back him over any shortsighted hard and fast rule.

 

[VitalDread]

Wouldn't be surprised if we picked up a young VFL ruckman in the rookie draft

It'd be more JMac doing the VFL stuff, Dally concentrates more on the children.

I'd imagine it'd be done in tandem.

I have seen JMac at a Casey game this year

I have seen JMac at a Casey game this year

[VitalDread]

Casey vs Bombers
Only spotted him for about 5 mins then he left
