Fly last night on The Front Bar:

“Bont would look good in black and white”

I’m Telling ya

Heard that and thought......here we go. Watch the out cry......
How can a coach of another team say that. blah. blah. blah.

 

[Dtennent94]

Imagine the implosions if we took Bont as a side dish with our flag.

Bont + Tommy and 2 NGA boys at a discount.

There would be riots, Ralphy would be calling on the league to de-register us.

Ross the Boss would go full calling out Gold Coast on us

I imagine we’re talking to him and have been talking to him since his draft year since we rated him so high then. He would take a lot of cap space but think that’s not our issue, and the UFA status makes it feasible as well have no trade capital otherwise considering our NGAs. That said he is close to being the best ever Bulldogs player, and seems like too good a guy to not leave the game as a one club player. Plus they have probably appeased him ditching Smith and putting a hard line on JUH because it wouldn’t surprise me if Bont didn’t like their antics.

Nah he’d crack the shits with the league over FS, but he’d be under no illusion that they nearly let us fold in the 90’s without attempting to help.

Pies are the furthest thing possible from AFLs “nepo baby”, no matter how much people think the pies get it good.

Every team would love Bont

He did the same thing last year saying Trac could have his parking space.

 

[JuniorB]

Think Fly doing a bit of stirring

There was a large dose of tongue in cheek with that.
Still..............

 

[Go Woods]

Gettable update on Rowell, Cal Twomey mentioned if he does leave, he'd prefer to play for an MCG team rather than a Marvel team, meaning we're still in the running, although with the emergence of Ned it may be less likely we go for him

If Bonts a realistic chance then he should be our preference being a FA, don't know how we can trade for Rowell without jeopardizing our 3 potential first rounders coming via FS/NGA programs.
We must get all three of these kids in.

I just couldn’t see Bont doing a Durant and joining the top team chasing a flag. Too much loyalty and integrity. Would be insane seeing Daicos, Bontempelli and Pendelbury/Sidebottom/Long/Degoey as our rotation though.

 

[Chunky Steak]

It's been said already but there's zero chance Bont leaves the Dogs

Fly himself said earlier on the Front Bar that he loves to be cheeky. All a bit of fun.

He was great by the way, worth watching his segment alone even if you don't normally watch the show.

He wouldn't be the first to do it in the AFL. Tom Lynch, Brian Lake to name a couple.

As a FA it’s our best chance of landing an out and out superstar and what a superstar to land. I’d love it but I just can’t see it happening

 

[well left]

I’d think unless one of Bont, Butters or Rowell become available we will probably be a little quiet on the trade front.

Maybe a KPD Billy Frampton

It’s a shame that Ads couldn’t be convinced to go to GC when they were willing to part with their top pick
I know we had interest in Rowell but there was a lot of speculation we would have taken Anderson
Imagine having him already and getting in the early of Rowell to come us

Stop it, I'm out in public and now I have to sit down so no one reports me to the police.

Anderson and Daicos would be an awesome 1-2 punch in the middle. Not to be.

It’s because he’s coming to the Pies Ralphy to make your stupid, nerdy journo head fully explode.

Oh and did you and Sam Edmund hear Houston is a chance to get to Carlton still ya nimrod

 

[unplugged]

If Ralphy is starting to veer out of his lane and call it weird... welcome to the Pies Bont!

 

[Doc1763]

Bont deserves to play in front of 70,000 every week

 

[BillyElliott]

He definitely sounds worried. His head really would explode
