Doughty requests trade

[macca23]

or so says channel 10 tonight.

Apparently both St Kilda and North Melbourne are interested in getting him.

10 went on to say that Adelaide have their eye on a key defender and a ruckman, and Doughty might become part of either one of these trades.

I'm not sure that either of these 2 clubs have what we want - Stiffy or someone - help!!!

If not then it would have to be part of a 3 way trade.

Bidding war.

What do you mean by requests trade?
Does he want to go that bad!

I'm not sure if North Melbourne will want to follow on in getting him, I mean, they had their chance last year and didn't want him.

It's going to get ugly, both teams will desperately want him, a tall utility that can play anywhere on the ground, has silky skills, a good football brain, wonderful temperament, a rock solid build, plus he will boost female membership. Can step straight in as well.

Shall we start the bidding at first round pick?

Is Doughty South Australian? If so, why would he want 2 move to Melbourne?

I messaged Matt about this very topic after I heard it on the News!

If he wants to go - I say lets see what we can get from him. Although I think he is a good player, he seems to have lost his way a little this year. I hope it all works out for him cause he reallly is a nice guy.

He is a South Adelaide boy!

He would want to move there due to the poor oppotunities that he has gotten over here!

Yep, very true.

I hope he doesn't get too homesick if he leaves!

Right I've got it.

The lets save Dogga campaign. No player who has ever lived in the Southern suburbs (particularly Reynella) or who has ever attended REHS while I was there can ever leave the club.

I know I count on Anne & Matt - anybody else!

We will picket the AFC in our brown and white REHS uniforms.

I'm sure we can organise for Sally Dix to provide refreshments to the army of protestors...

Hot cheese rolls are a REHS heritage icon.

Let's not forget pizza muffins...

OK here is the deal. Went to funeral today (Fanto's nanna passed away. James wasn't there cos he is in Canberra) and the report is true that Doughty has asked to be traded because he is not getting his opportunities here. North Melbourne, Richmond and St. Kilda have shown interest. Carlton want him to enter the pre-season draft if they miss out on a big name player.

AFC are seriously considering Holland but have to wait to see where Brown decides to go. If he doesn't choose Richmond, Doughty could be packaged to Richmond as part of the Holland trade.

Kangaroos are really keen on him. They tried really hard to get him last year but we held onto him. If he goes to Kangaroos, Watts could be part of the deal. Macca23, Kangaroos have a couple of good young ruckman in Hale and McIntosh but I would be VERY surprised if they traded him.

St. Kilda is also interested but Crows would like to trade for Brooks and Saits are not keen. Another alternative is that Doughty could be a part of a 3 way deal between Adelaide, Freo and Saints that would see Black going to Freo, Doughty to Saints and someone or a pick comes our way.

Personally I would like to get Holland, so Doughty to Tigers sounds good to me

C'mon mate admit it. You would love Croad to wear Crows guernsey

 

[lozstar]

How good would that be to get Croad for Doughty...It's closer to Melbourne here than Western Australia is, so that should be reason enough for Croad to come here

Go South - The first thing I thought of when I heard this was your jumper!

I suggest you wait to see if Parker is promoted and put his number on your jumper.

Stiffy - Interesting stuff.

I'd take Brooks if we could get him. Maybe throw in Marsh with Dogga?

Holland could be good.

If we cant get players get draft picks, the higher the better.

Hey Jerome!! Please don't encourage Matt like that! as much as I like Aidan Parker (he let me sit on his lap so he gets bonus points ) Matt shouldn't get his number put on a guernsey! He needs to aim higher a bit more "long term" LOL - my understanding is that Dogga may have followed Fitzy!
