Per Volbeat we’ve been chasing Dawson all year, and made a strong offer.

obviously we think he’d add something to our team and would love to have him

BUT… when he did he become a must have, can’t do without him guy?

think we’ve all gone a bit doolally worrying about the cousins.

he’s a nice player but not one the world comes crashing down without

Very good call. Big example of a reputation being enhanced in trade week.

Very fine player but not world beating

HE WAS SEEN HAVING LUNCH WITH PORT PLAYERS AT HENLEY BEACH, THREAD TITLE:

TALES FROM THE HENLEY BEACH CAFE

Coincidence, troll or both?

Don't panic just yet
hahahaha definitely just a coincidence. Would much rather him in crows colour next year so wouldn’t make it up. Did lose my appetite also which was sad.

I would love to get Dawson as a player, but I think the notion of actually targeting and landing the player is more important than the player itself

Kick-starts the idea that we can be a destination club of sorts, when we start to rise up the ladder in a few years

Mitch Cleary saying Tigers have offered Robbie Tarrant a deal. I guess Talia is maybe the backup plan.

Strong points. My one counter to this is that if he's just a role player that we've targeted all season, who has also agreed to return to two team state and we still can't get our target over the line, we're pretty damn unattractive or terrible at selling ourselves.

Wait and see but after failing to make any real move in the past couple of years it would be nice to add a quality player to our list.

Quick skim on the poort board, alot of them are confident Dawson to crows, maybe they're just embellishing their misery of the last week and going all end of the world mindset.

Interesting Stephens signed with swans. I guess we weren't too interested. Maybe in 2 years when he has 1 good season and everyone wants him for a first and 700k.

Agree, and a key part of making sure this rebuild is successful is to add some quality to the squad over the next few years through trading. We can't build an entire premiership contending team from the draft.
