Outside Midfielders

Excluding Menzel, Docherty and Yarran who I doubt will play predominantly midfield ever.

Midfield rotations looking a little light on quality. Desperately need to refuel.

 

[FlowersByIrene]

Yarran will play as an outside mid nexr year I think on a wing. Simmo?

 

[ItsAllAboutMe]

You do realise their 2nd rd pick is only like 3 picks before ours?

Yes but there is every chance they will sell

Stringer doesn't even play in the midfield yet.

would say the same thing about Menzel though, and saying Casboult for Stringer is like saying Menzel for Josh Jenkins..

 

[Jeremias]

Use some logic here.

Hold on a second.

You've suggested the Dogs would trade Stringer for Casboult, yet I'm the one who needs to use some logic?

Really?

 

[HereComesJuddy]

No point selling decent players. We don't have enough. Need to put some time into the draft. As many mids as we can get.

 

[Zephiisdaman]

No no, I know who Stringer is, I acknowledge that he isn't in their midfield right now, mainly due to the need to further build up his overall tank but he will be there in the future.

What I'm saying is that one of the decent Bulldogs mids could be prised out of them if you were to put Casboult on the table as a potential trade, they'd be wetting themselves in excitement at that prospect.

It really would depend on how desperate they want to be to fix this major issue as to how far up their player scale they'd be prepared to go, desperate people make desperate decisions don't forget.

Look Sheik, i can understand you might be keen to get Jake Stringer. Levi Casboult is of limited interest to the Dogs, at best a stopgap player. Whereas Stringer is a star in the making.
Are you seriously suggesting the Dogs would swap a star for a journeyman type? They might but maybe you would have to sweeten the deal. To sweeten that deal you would be looking at a lot of sugar on top.
More likely if Casboult was offered then swaps of picks and peripheral players may be exchanged.
I like your optimism, but thinking because the Dogs need a big fwd that they would trade away a future star smacks of desperation. I am surprised you didn't suggest Bontempelli, I mean we are desperate.

Problem is Zeph..... dogs barely have stopgap KP players.....

but otherwise I agree, can't see a straight Stringer/Casboult trade ever happening.


Would definitely bring the lols

Ok if we have to we'll throw in sugar

 

[MC_Doggy_Frog18]

When's the trade period

I know that. I was trying to establish the point that the dogs would never in a million years trade Stringer for Levi.

Ignore Sheik.

I rate Hendo incredibly highly, and wouldnt be interested in trading him, unless we got way overs. Would want Boyd, Jacksh & Shiel (which GWS wouldnt give up, and Saints couldnt satisfy in any way).

What Lachie brings to us can't be measured simply by his onfield output too.

 

[slashin_velvet]

Even in what I would deem a down year, he's so structurally important. Waite's run of form can be largely attributed to hendo's good leading which takes a defender away from Waite.

Yep. Not to mention his leadership. He's a great role model for the club. Too much to let go of. I know some deals seem too good to be true, but to trade Lachie we'd have to be robbing a club blind to justify it.

 

[blues4flag]

I'll puke if we trade Hendo for pick 1.

 

[MC_Doggy_Frog18]

whens trade week?

 

[Matty411]

whens trade week?

Trade month starts days after the Grand Final, I believe.

 

[etsal1]

Trade month starts days after the Grand Final, I believe.

At least we have a good month to get our stuff together before trade period. If Waite isn't signed by then he's gone.

 

[Navy Blues 73]

When are the delistings announced post season? Not looking forward to it though.

 

[HARKER]

Interviews are likely to go ahead some time in the next two weeks.

I'll bump The List thread for discussion.

 

[Matty411]

Mick said in most recent presser that they'll look at the list on Monday week (days after our final game). What Lucas, Robbo (off-field) and Garlett do this week will likely determine their future in Navy Blue. Hope we see both Lucas and Garlett on field to at least give it a crack.

 

[bluekidjoe]

Geez, the idea of trading Hendo makes me nervous. We'd need to end up with Boyd and Jaksch from it, while keeping pick 5.

Henderson doesn't have to go anywhere as he's contracted.

Nothing wrong with clubs inquiring though. That's good.
