Wouldn’t mind getting him but the prospect of dealing with dodo again is just not enticing

People seem to think that it's impossible to negotiate with Dodoro. It's not hard.

Step 1: Make Tippa a reasonable enough money offer that he requests a trade.
Step 2: Offer the Bombers something reasonable for him.

At that point we win regardless of what happens. Either we get our man or Dodoro unreasonably keeps a player from getting to his desired location and ends up with an unhappy player on his list. Once a player wants to come to us we have all the power and can't lose unless we cave to his demands.

WCE are showing us what quick, skillful smalls who finish can do. That Cameron looks really good. Would love to have 2 smalls like that roving naughto
Can't believe how good Cameron is already. Looks like a 10 year old but plays like a seasoned veteran

Not quite that simple. What does that say to other players that want to be traded to us? If they can’t get a deal done then that puts players in an incredibly awkward position. Can’t have been fun to be Bryce Gibbs in his last year at Carlton.

Says to players that we are reasonable but won't be bent over when we are in a position of power. If everyone but Dodoro can see that we offered a fair trade but he refused us and stopped Tippa from getting to his desired club then it makes him look like a dick, not us. People seem to think that because he is a tough negotiator that you can't win with him but it's simply not true. He paid a fair price for both Smith and Shiel. We just got bent over with Stringer because we gave the bombers the upper hand.

Don't be shocked if the speculation is right about Darling. The dogs know the eagles want T Kelly, and our future 2020 pick might be in play to get it done to unload to the Cats.

Kennedy on his last legs I reckon. Maybe one more season? Don’t think they can afford to lose Darling.
 
His running is awesome and a good player, but goes missing way too often for my liking

Would just become our whipping boy and another passenger in the big games

I don’t see this being much different to Martin
