I'd have no issues throwing in Sanders in the Wilkie deal

Interesting scenario.

I wonder if Bevo still thinks Sanders is "the most talented young player to walk through the doors" in his time? (Or words to that effect)

My guess is Sam Darcy now has that mantle. And Bont doesn't qualify because he started playing in 2014 when McCartney was coach. So maybe Sanders is the second most talented player to arrive at the club in Bevo's time as coach?

And if Bevo thinks that, I wonder how he'd feel about swapping him for Wilkie? Especially as he doesn't seem to place a high value on good defenders.

The Bulldogs now have an official offer infront of Butts.

 

[Dogs Rule]

Would make a nice change for our club to bend others over for a change...

 

[WAbulldog]

Would be stoked if we got both Wilkie and Butts.

Bend over for Butts?

Curnows preference is Geelong.

Absolutely sickening. Blues need to hold firm and deal with clubs with good picks (at the very least).

Blues want players not picks

 

[grassman75]

$1 mil a year over five offer for Flanders from the Saints in 3, 2, 1...

Still farms down around Carrum way?

Only a shit one

 

[grassman75]

Ignore the haters.

And Scrag

Blues want players not picks

Blues aren’t going to get players. No chance. Well not any high level ones.

At worst they need to bank high picks for this year and next year so they can hit the draft hard now, and have some picks to utilise for trade next year.

 

[grassman75]

At worst it would keep up our streak of rostering the worse brother, so a nod to tradition is always good.

How does it work if we sign Luke Power to the coaching team?

We had Sam the shit brother as a player over Luke the gun and now we have Sam the gun recruiter and Luke the shit brother coach.

Does the shit brother role reverse in other roles?

A third club will likely have to get involved to unlock any deal.

 

[BigFloppa]

If we got Wilkie and Butts I reckon we win the flag next year and the next 3 after that

Wilkie Butts and Sellwood would be the best defensive trio the modern game has ever seen

Wouldn't come close to Keath, Bruce and Gardner.

 

[BigFloppa]

And Scrag

What'd Scrag say?

 

[Foxman98]

Wouldn't come close to Keath, Bruce and Gardner.

What about Schache, Bruce, Gardner?

Did that last longer then 1 or 2 preseason games?

 

[Zgope1]

What would the crows ultimately accept for Butts? Please be realistic.

 

[grassman75]

The above is why any deal would be very difficult, assuming Cal wants to go (which has never been stated).

You don't get an AA full back for one or two speculative draft picks. Got to give, to get.

IF the dogs are serious about fixing their biggest weakness, there would need to be a quality player in return that is excess to the dogs and required by St Kilda, ideally.

We could pick up Billing’s and trade him to you?

Of course it is. Farm, property or a pub share? Or maybe a $600k job packing t-shirts in the Cotton On distribution centre?

 

[BigFloppa]

Sam Darcy and a future fourth

 

[Mojorisin]

What would the crows ultimately accept for Butts? Please be realistic.

I'd imagine a second round pick. Key defenders do cost a premium but he was left out of their best 23 for finals.

 

[grassman75]

I’ve heard they are Boob men

 

[MaxiBont]

What would the crows ultimately accept for Butts? Please be realistic.

Second round pick I reckon.

 

[grassman75]

Couple of bits:

Buku to Carlton definitely happening.

Steven May has parted ways with Melbourne ... have a feeling you're involved

Poor Buku

I'd have no issues throwing in Sanders in the Wilkie deal

So we can laugh at Stk when he leaves for Tassie from them
