Port Adelaide’s recruiter Michael Regan has emerged as a frontrunner among the contenders for the vacant Western Bulldogs list and recruiting job

Come the **** on, stop using the app if that’s what you use

Where are people getting the idea that Jamarra will leave? He loves the Bulldogs as a club (for all of the criticism of his social media posting there is still likes/supports of his teammates, supporting the Dogs etc throughout it all), and even that love is not enough motivation to get him to be a professional footballer.

Whatever issues he has, one can only assume it would include less motivation to get up and help contribute to a club he doesn't love and for teammates he doesn't know, and yet we're supposed to believe that other clubs would pay for that?

For better for for worse we have to work through with him because our club is a much better positioned to help him through it than any other.

Based on the fact that we were actively shopping him around last season.

PORT SCOUT IN DOGS' SIGHTS​

PORT Adelaide's Michael Regan has emerged as a frontrunner for the Western Bulldogs' list strategy role.

The Dogs have changed their list and recruiting department in the off-season, with list boss Sam Power being appointed football manager at the club. Power will retain control of contracts and some list management duties in the position.

The Bulldogs were set to elevate Dom Milesito the new position, which takes in being recruiting manager as well as list management, before Milesi quit the Dogs to take on a new position outside of the AFL industry.
Regan, who has been at Port Adelaide for more than a decade, was in the running for West Coast's list boss role last year and is an analytic specialist, having come from a data background.

He has been in Port's recruiting and list team working under list boss Jason Cripps and recruiting manager Geoff Parker.

Regan is among a handful of candidates the Bulldogs have interviewed as they get close to making an appointment on the eve of the under-18 season beginning. – Callum Twomey

Hopefully his analytics were for their drafting and had nothing to do with the contracts they have Esava and Zerl Thatcher

Surely that's us trying to cash in on his value before other teams knew about everything that's since come out?

Few interesting articles out there about this fella. Came second to the WCE candidate. Seems more of a list manager type rather than recruiter.

I'd imagine that would be the list manager who was responsible for that. So it better be Cripps' fault

He only signed a 2 year extension, doesn’t exactly scream commitment to the club.

If it helps land Butters, who cares! *

* not sure how close he is to Butters, but I've heard they have coffee together several times per week*

* I heard it in a dream, but could be true?!*

* it's probably not true*

* I'm going to run with these rumours anyway...

If he were at a Collingwood or a Geelong or a 'big club' you can guarantee the media hacks would go with 'they're a good club, they'll find a way to work it all out with Jamarra'.

At a club like ours, 'well he probably needs a fresh start. He'll probably go to Collingwood.'

So predictable.

The concept of players like JUH and Bailey Smith needing a “fresh start” in their early 20s has always baffled me.

Once you realise it’s bollox and just an excuse to get to a bigger team/more brand exposure it becomes less baffling.

Or their current colleagues are fed up with them.

GREATER Western Sydney has opened talks on a new deal for midfielder Xavier O'Halloran, after his trade bid to get to the Western Bulldogs while under contract last year fell through.

O'Halloran had been offered a four-year deal to move to the Dogs last October, but the Giants held him to his contract and have now begun discussions to extend his agreement at the club beyond 2025.

I’m ok with it. Not a massive list need - let’s target someone else.

He'd be an improvement in the 10-23 range of the list but he never screamed MUST GET to me. If he does fall into our laps then I won't turn him down but I wouldn't like go crazy trying to pursue him.

I reckon Davidson has taken the spot XOH would have been slotted into

No organisation with integrity pays a bloke 900k per year who doesn’t give a f**k about his own performance. If you have any doubts go and watch last years final. Soul destroying to watch live.

He also has missed the 2 training sessions after a going awol for a couple of months and hanging out with bikies.

Don't disagree, but I'm more talking about the media talking about him as a player with value etc.
Your points are talking about a future where he has nil value, and we're not quite there yet.

I know this is too early
But reckon this is the last year of Baker and Coffield on the list

Hardly revelatory VD. I'm sure a few others are on borrowed time as well.

Buku and Poulter too imo

Poulter I would agree

Buku looks like he's taken the next step of confidence and football ability
I reckon he could be a solid lock this year

Buks is solid base salary depth at least.

Poulter less so - once coaching staff struggle to find a position for you, you're on borrowed time.
