Both out of contract and a belligerent ****wit who’s management (by speculation) was making it clear there’d be consequences for any other club who picked him up in the draft before Geelong, or even threatened to do so. The moment that happened the definition of a “fair price” completely changed.
Wasn’t the media and his management spinning that we had consider his mental health and just accept the Cats deal as well? Ridiculous.

Can guarantee the Dogs paid very little to JUH last year. The negotiation between Dogs and AFL regarding JUH saw the AFL take on payments this was to keep the Dogs from taking JUH and his management to court for breach of contract. It was settled that his money would still be shown under salary cap but the dogs wouldn't be held accountable for the money. AFL keen to keep it out of courts so that everything JUH was up to wouldn't be made public knowledge and bring the entire league into disrepute.
Would AFL have paid his contract but allowed us to use that amount to pay other players?
 
Have a look at the media going into overdrive supporting their favourite Geelong and their “monster” deal for Curnow….. give it a rest
It’s genuinely a terrible offer.

It’s realistically something like pick 25, pick 20 & pick 30 in real terms.

The biggest offer ever - 3 straight firsts!!

FFS you idiots, picks 24, 25, 26 is nothing like picks 6, 10 and 12...
 
There was outrage on trade radio when we weren't accepting the scraps Essendon was offering for Dunkley - we were called unreasonable.

Silvagni valued Dunkley as a 2nd rounder (with a straight face). Rendell thought even less. Both thought his calibre of player could be easily found in the draft. I also recall Pickering calling the club spiteful.
 
Dogs doing nothing positive in trade period as usual. Getting a c grade small defender and will get reamed on a wayward but extremely talented individual going the other way. Sickening
What do you think we should be getting back for Jamarra? Keep in mind no other club apart from the Gold Coast has had any interest and he has quickly become one of the biggest distractions in the football world.

Think people are undervaluing how vital getting a lockdown small defender was for our overall defence. Budarick is a big tick & is only 24.

Also we have Sellwood to add as well, who is effectively a new defensive recruit.
Sellwood hasn't even debuted yet.
He's shown signs at VFL level but the way this board talks about him you'd think he's prime Easton Wood with Clay Smith's attitude.

You would think if the AFL has been managing this outcome, we should get something. He is still under contract, and if the AFL is putting pressure on to get a good result, they would have to satisfy the Bulldogs as well.

If we can't land a full back, I do wonder if we revert back to the 2 KPD setup but with more reliance on medium defenders that can match it in the air.

Cleary JOD Sellwood
Dale Lobb Williams
Budarick

Maybe Bramble & Williams cover the wing/HBF between them depending on whether we need an additional medium defender against certain teams?
