Restricted Free Agent Marcus Bontempelli [RFA 2021]

[S Rioghal Mo Dhream]

He has raised the same issues Dunkley has raised, very unhappy with what went on in the hub.

I keep on hearing this but not what's actually meant to have taken place.

Does anyone even know or is it just dribble that's being spat by trolls?

Lazy dribble that Dons and Pies fans are trying to ignite to make them feel better.

Thanks mate, anything specific or just "being unhappy on the hub" without offering any clarity?

Zero substance. Just lazy troll posting. Damo Barrett went from “dogs were one of the best behaved clubs in the hub” (he was at the same hotel) to “dogs have culture issues” on the last day of trade period. Pahhlease...

Guess there must be some bored people out there then

 

[CatToTheFuture]

Should I start a rumour that he's coming to the cats for a first and two seconds?

Joke

... unless?

Blicavs was spotted at Whitten oval yesterday having a soy latte with Bevo.

Coaching role i suspect. He's next out of contract for the 2024 season where he'll be 32 i think for round 1. That's some real long term planning by bevo

I meant sorry...

 

[Stratton24]

Collingwood very, very, very confident they have him.

Collingwood very, very, very confident they have him.

As in the suburb ? Is he looking for a new place?

 

[hoianbulldog]

Think you should be more concerned about Dunkley. He wouldnt be a happy chappy right now, especially with treloar arriving. Less and less midfield time

Liberatore is holding Dunkley back. Libba has a short life span.

 

[Jcpdragonx]

The dogs willl match and the price will be something we’ve never seen before

Match? I doubt Bontempelli even accepts a FA offer. At no stage in his career has he ever looked like he was going anywhere.

I meant sorry...

Same deal? Man you guys need a lot of coaches apparently

 

[AFDogs]

I mean I can't see him leaving but stranger things have happened...

His next contract will be a monster (if it isn't already). Capcaincy + hopefully top 5 player in the league.

 

[maddog37]

Yep, Collingwood are certain they have him

Collingwood very, very, very confident they have him.

So are they certain or just confident??

 

[adogsfan5]

So are they certain or just confident??

I think he’s upset that it’s December and his midfield are still trying to run out games from this season...

 

[TedDougChris]

Collingwood very, very, very confident they have him.

They also think that Nathan is a good coach and Ned Guy is an excellent list manager.....

And that it's all Treloar's partners fault....

 

[Stratton24]

It's Collingwood - you work it out

Can’t see it happening either, feel like he isn’t one to chase money as he will be well compensated anyway so the gap won’t be big compared to a monster offer

The only thing that could lead to him leaving imo hypothetically is if he wants to play exclusively midfield and bevo throws him forward for large chunks of the game (50% plus)

 

[Instincts]

Apparently the team has lost faith in English and have little hopes for Martin, so will be playing Dunkley as #1 ruck and Bont as #2 ruck support.

Bont not happy and will demand to be traded to Essendon alongside Dunkley as a packaged salary dump.

You should be an AFL journo, actually, nah, the journos are better than this

Seriously though, the thought of Bontempelli leaving in itself is ridiculous enough for me but this being the reasons why is just irrationale

 

[Sweet Jesus]

I think most people assume Bontempelli stays put at the Dogs. But it's going to be big money.

What will it take? He turns 26 in November. Is it going to be $8 million over seven years? Will someone offer more than that?

He’ll be well remunerated. No one is offering 8 million over 7 years post Covid. A good list and skipper. Stays put. But expecting plenty of click bait from the media.

What do you think the Dogs will pay to keep him? I wouldn't be surprised if he becomes the highest-paid player in the comp during his next deal.
