Yawn.
To get him Carlton have to pay big overs otherwise we will just match the offer as he is a restricted free agent.
Was told he was about 50/50 until the Pies pants the Blues, he then realiased Carlton are going no where. The only other club he is considering is Hawthorn who are looking at him as a contingency play if Buddy decides to go.
Blues are entering a major rebuild phase.

No they will not trade for him, simple as that. Would be stupid.
The problem for Carlton is they assume guys like Warnock will be taken on the same money they are paying. Highly unlikely, they will have to pay part of his wage.
He'd be a great fit at Hawthorn. With Roughy and Gunston filling the key positions and Spanger and others potential third talls Buddy wont be missed, so they can spend the money on a gun mid like Thomas instead, replacing the aging Burgoyne Mitchell and Sewell.
God I hope that doenst happen.
If he decides to go to the blues then he is a ********. so yes, he would be a good fit at the blues and with malthouse

I'd be very shocked if he left us for Carlton.
What?
no I'm not mad, quite clearly you are.
Why would Dale Thomas leave Collingwood to go to Carlton? Give me a good reason.
Ah, yes, the pre-emptive Cloke strike. Clokey and the supporters all mates now.
I can only think of four reasons why he'd leave Collingwood:
- our uniforms are better
- he likes our coach better
- the money
- he wants to get as far away from Eddie "I'm feelin' your 200 years of pain" McGuire
Surely Carlton can't offer that much more than the pies?

Whilst I appreciate the dig, you are right in that we do have some room in the cap.
Judd took quite a haricut for his contract next year, and lets say Betts leaves that will free up some more room.
Greg Swann did say on SEN a few months ago that we have room for 1-2 players to come in via FA.

Carlton would be better placed letting Betts go to North, if it is correct, their offer is plus $500 K. They could get 1st Round compensation for that. If they go after Thomas, that goes.
They aren't winning a flag anytime soon and a major rebuild via the draft is their best bet. Chasing the short term approach is why they are in the mess they currently are.
As it is, physically I think Dale's body is shot. His approach to the game, throwing himself at every contest for a light frame has taken a toll.
You would be nervous putting him on a large and long term deal.

There is no compensation
So we will get 1st round compo for Daisy?
I'll give you two. More money and a coach he plays well under.
Not saying it will happen, but they're two pretty fair reasons.
