[Doggy]

Tell me about it North Melbourne are asking for Sanders surely the AFL can’t allow that to happen

They will

 

[Munnez]

Spadanuda sounds like Spudanuda. Do not want.

Imagine the commentators with that mouthful to pronounce

 

[Mojorisin]

I assume it's a typo(?!) for over-ager, but if not, I am consumed by finding out how players are determined as overeager?! Judging by the second half of our season, we had very few overeagers, so obviously over-age overeagers have a real opportunity with our list.

Oh, and I'm not trying to shoot any messengers here, but if Lobb is a Saint next year, I'll eat my (chocolate-covered spaghetti) hat live on BF.

Yeah should probably proof read what I'm typing.
Also Lobb will be a dog next year, I asked him personally and he laughed at me.

Sorry, it was just too tempting to pass up.

 

[Bulldogs85]

They will

So they get pick 2 , compensation pick for McKay , Port Adelaide first rounder and they want Sanders for nothing.

Yes, that's right

 

[Bulldogs85]

Yes, that's right

They are not asking for much

 

[Doggy]

They are not asking for much

They would agree

 

[Bulldogs85]

They would agree

If they want sanders they should be forced to match a Bid go point hunting with one of their First Rounders

 

[Doggy]

the AFL might make them

They shouldn’t get him full stop

 

[Munnez]

If they can get all that and hang onto them Norf will end up becoming a juggernaut. Although are short on KPP

 

[W W Biscuit]

Good to see that other teams are being penalised for North's general crapness.

 

[doggy_dog]

Why would you waste the Bont on a wing or half back?

Would be mad to do this now in his prime but once he’s 32 or so and lost a step I reckon he’d excel in a Hodge type role

 

[weltschmerz]

Not if they keep using top 10 picks on mids and ignoring both ends of the ground.

 

[Dogs Rule]

Why would you waste the Bont on a wing or half back?

I'd just be happy to clone Bont and play him everywhere.

 

[Anja_Nees]

I'd just be happy to clone Bont and play him everywhere.

We just need to organise a harem of the country’s top female footy, netball and basketball stars and put him to stud until we have about 40 boys.

(UFA), Jordon Sweet
Retired: Josh Bruce
Delisted: Mitch Hannan
*UFA: unrestricted free agent

Hannan was the first moved on in the week after the Dogs’ season ended. Expect Duryea to play on while McLean will surely be wanted on the market. Sweet will draw interest across the league from clubs looking for ruck support but he is yet to indicate whether he wants to leave Whitten Oval, while O’Brien’s future may hinge on others. Bailey Williams took his time but inked a four-year deal this week.

Is Richie McComb an upgrade on Robbie?

Can't be any worse !!

Poor bloke, even his name is inaccurate

Bedendo, Buku, Raak & Sweet are the only 4 I'd want to keep from that list.

 

[doggies ftw]

Buku ended with 41.21 in the VFL, really solid season. Hopefully we don’t lose him whilst O’Brien gets another year

 

[Unorth]

I think we all know this is the most likely situation.

Why are you using his goals as a measurement of why we should keep him then mention TOB who plays at the other end of the ground?

 

[doggies ftw]

Because it shows his natural talent in an unsuited position. He still should be playing in defence. Either way their similar players who have both spent time at both ends of the ground, it’s going to be a hard pill to swallow when we’re left with the shit old injury prone one when we need to be building on our depth. Even if it’s out of our control ie Buku looks elsewhere
