It’s not a coincidence that Dawson announced he’s out immediately after the Swans re-signed Parker. I’m not buying $700k over 5 years. I reckon the Swans offer is nowhere near that.

I agree.

Managers leak all sorts of reasons, but players change clubs because of money. It's always money, and fair enough.

There's no way Sydney could have found an extra $350k+ for Dawson above what they were already paying him. It's just unfortunate timing.

He took another step this year but he has been consistently good for 3 years now. He finished 2nd in our board's POTY in 2019 and 3rd in 2020 and 2021.

The fans rate him highly, which is why our board is taking it as well as what I imagine this place did when Gunston asked out.

Gunston wasn't a good time. This is perhaps more similar to a Lever, Bock, McGovern or Davis. Not quite a Dangerfield or Cameron level. Definitely not as hyped as Tippett.
 
This lad will know exactly what he’s doing and exactly where he’s going. Wasn’t it just a few weeks ago he said Swans fans had nothing to worry about? Now he’s homesick? Haha ha

1. Couldn’t get the money he wanted from Sydney
2. Big offer here so he and his girl can get that beach house in Robe
3. Had a deadline to tell Sydney something and Port didn’t want the attention during finals - so he tells Syd just that he’s going to SA
4. If he was going to the Crows they wouldn’t be able to get one of those Twitter messages out quick enough !!

Sydney wingman Jordan Dawson has told the Swans he is heading home, which will pit the South Australian sides into another trade war over the emerging star.
The Herald Sun understands the Swans offered Dawson a deal of up to five seasons and had the cap space to make an extremely generous offer to the long-kicking wingman.

But he told them he was intent on moving home, with both the Power and Adelaide very keen on the 24-year-old.

Port Adelaide won the battle over Orazio Fantasia last year when he moved home from Essendon, and are confident Dawson would want to join them given their premiership window.


They also have pick 17, which is about what it would take to secure a player third in this year’s best-and-fairest at the Swans.

But Adelaide is likely to put in a more significant offer and has cap space after losing Jake Kelly to Essendon on Friday and having retired Tom Lynch and Daniel Talia.

Adelaide also has the lure of dragging him through the pre-season draft as it did with GWS midfielder Jackson Hately last year.

But Adelaide would not offer their No.4 pick for Dawson, with their second-rounder at pick 23.

Sydney made clear despite perceptions of a cap crunch they made a generous offer, with the Swans also likely to lose George Hewett to Carlton this off-season.

“Jordan has indicated to the club his desire to return to South Australia to be closer to family,” Sydney football boss Charlie Gardiner said.

“Jordan has been weighing up this decision for some time and despite there being an attractive long-term deal on offer with the Swans, he has arrived at the decision that he would like to return home.

“The news is obviously disappointing for the club. Jordan is a young, hugely talented player who is coming off a breakout season in 2021, which only adds to the disappointment.

“Given we have only learned the news this afternoon, we will take some time to work through the Club’s options leading into the trade period,” Gardiner said.

I've mentioned a few times we have been into Dawson all year even before his 2nd half season form

Port has jjoined in on the race late in the season

It would be wonderful if you were correct, but Peter Ryan in the Age this morning quotes Sydney sources claiming Port are in the box seat. Fascinating, & for gawd's sake can this board not spit the dummy if he does go to Port - he's not a Tom Mitchell or a Tim Kelly.

Sydney obviously want Dawson to go to Port because they'll get more or their first and a player, if he chooses us they'll be lucky to get pick 23 because we could easily push him into the pre season draft

Even if they joined the race late they know how to get deals done. They're prepared to pay the piper, we typically aren't.

Never let the past dictate the future

Only the present day can determine the future

Lets see what the club coughs up

No point building a war chest if your not going to use it

I asked the exact same question a day or two ago. Weird decision. Maybe he gets pushed to a rookie list?

I suspect that's what will end up. It's a really harsh call to delist O'Connor after two years, seeing he's dealt with COVID ruining last year, and he did break through for 3 games this year. I'm not confident on Ronins prospects of making it, but I do want to see one more preseason into him just to be sure.

I think Vader said we’ve got 4 spots available, presume 5 now with Kelly leaving, so maybe not too many more delistings needed
 
Assuming we do get Dawson, who does he replace in the 22?

Perhaps Seedsman on a wing? Or do we play Dawson in the midfield?

With Milera coming back, we seem to be well stocked for running half-back flankers. Or do we consider trading one?

Milera is made of glass, we should have low expectations of what he may do post injury.

Can't see him replacing Seedsman

Seedsman was in the best 2-3 wingman in the comp this year
