Depending on his contract and how much of it will the swans be willing to pay, a club who wants a KPF/2nd ruck role for depth may bite for a 4th rounder.
May work out OK for the bulldogs - Swans pay 70% of contract, bulldogs give up a 4th rounder - little risk for the Dogs who dont have a ready made fwd - White would know he has 1 year to prove himself or he is out on his ear - little risk - possible good reward.

Ouch, thought it was only Swans fans that thought so little about Jess.

Actually, you could do worse, but I'm guessing I'm not gonna win that argument.

Probably worth a shot by GC/GWS. At worst, he would probably help them win a game or two more than they otherwise would next year. At best, he might come good.

Can't see us getting much more than a very, VERY late pick though. Or packaging him as part of another deal.

Size, strength, decent kicking ability - but he goes missing more than the Marburg virus.

I can't see him being of much value as a trade, but we will need to replace him if both he and Seaby leave, so it should be something to allow us to acquire a backup ruck.

If the offers don't roll in, then he can fester in the local league for a while just in case Mummy and Pyke go down.

He's been disappointing because I remember seeing him play a couple of years ago in a few games and he looked like he could turn into a serviceable ruck/forward.

Would only pick him up as a rookie for depth to cover the loss of Jenkins and possibly Gumby.


Should be given another chance at maybe the Dogs, Blues, Melbourne or more likely GWS.

Could lose Giles, Brogan is old, Folau is marketing a project, Ohailpin and Phillips
