Key Off-Season Dates
This is a comprehensive list including dates for draft combines, list lodgements, delisted free agency windows and return to train dates. I had to collate these from three different club websites because the AFL is lazy af and doesn't have it on their website, so thought it might be helpful to share:

Pretty surprising that he's going to Victoria, thought there'd be some mutual interest in WA some where. What sort of compensation do we get for him? A future second? No idea.

Young, skilled, contracted got to be a high F2
Is this his baby on the way thing or a fall out of losing his mate TOJ, do you think?

Is he a similar case to Jordan Clark, young player shows some exciting flashes but hasn't been able to secure a spot in a good team. Going rate for Clark seems to be a pick in the 20s is Bobby worth the same?
 
Which clubs would be interested?
Hawks with the re-set going on, North another with a strong re-set

I am sure the club will do everything to try and keep him but if he does leave it has to be for a best 22 player
 
I don't get why Victoria, unless there's a specific club gotten into his ear?

First rounder according to Cats.

I'd say he had secured a spot in our team this year - IIRC he played all games until he dropped out of the bubble to be with his pregnant GF (which he wouldn't have done in a non-COVID environment).

That said, yeah, late first round early second round would seem to be around the mark.

He has X-factor, just needs to develop that to a consistent level to be really good, so we lose out some on the fact that he's still ''potential'' at this point in his career. You could see Hawks as being into him, unfortunately.

Hawthorn have pick 21 I'd take that

Yes, The only risk is a bid on Fahey eating that up. But, yeah (though it gets pushed back) that would seem OK (although I really don't want to lose him, he's worth more to the team than a pick at this stage).

Yeah he is for sure, I wouldn't be too worried about Fahey from what I've read and heard most people seem to project him being drafted no earlier then 25 and thats probably on the higher end. Would be dissapointing to lose Bobby.
 
The FOX Sports article didn't say which 2 clubs were interested.

Not Geelong, they'll get Stengle. Melbourne, Dogs don't need smalls. Wouldn't think Saints need him, nor Norths - they have adequate stocks of kids. Surely not Pies, nothing to trade - if them, GTFO (at worst, would have to be a future 2nd).

Hawks could do with him, Essendon have been looking for a small, Carlton just released Gibbons so could want him.

Unsure of Richmond, with Rioli moved to back field, wouldn't have thought they needed a small forward, but perhaps after quality?

Hawks would be best due picks they have.

:huh:
 
In terms of trade, would we consider Luke Breust as a straight swap (or near that)? It would be a case of young talent whom Hawks would get 10 years out of, but currently unproven versus a proven talent but at age 30 only has a few years left. Breust would add another small/medium goalkicker to our forward line, but only for a short time.

I'd be less keen on Gunston, despite others in this forum being keen, mainly due to his injury history, and that we have other taller forwards that we can at least try there.

Was about to ask what your biggest list needs are and where do you think your club would value Hill.

Guess I'll see myself out.
