    Strategy Trade and List Management Thread Part 8 (opposition supporters - READ posting rules before posting)

    If it’s anything like this I’d be happy in terms of the return. To get pick 31 for a fringe player is good. There’s a question as to what we do when we have injuries but I doubt he would play more than 10 games unless we are smashed.

    No Oppo Supporters Non Bulldog Footy Talk - Bulldogs Only - Part 6

    At least with Port they’ve played in prelims recently and Butters is young enough that he could be around for another crack. If you’ve got one of the best players in the league at that age it makes sense to try to keep them. If they surprise next year he might be persuaded to stay longer...

    No Oppo Supporters Non Bulldog Footy Talk - Bulldogs Only - Part 6

    Merrett is good but he isn’t Bont/Dangerfield/Cripps. He’s also 30 and might be washed in 2-3 seasons. Talk is there are two first rounders and a fringe player on the table. They should be getting whatever draft capital they can and pulling the rip cord. If he and they have a bad year next...

    Coach Future of the Club (Bevo; Board; Assistant Coaches; Football Department) - Part 2

    He’s also part time and maintaining some media roles. I think it’s a way to dip his toe back into clubland so that his absence isn’t held against him going for the Tassie gig.

    Callan, Djerrkurra, Sherman, Tom Young. The late trade period nothing acquisition was a rite of passage.

    Gowers is God

    Gave some good moments in 2018 after Stringer’s exit and apparently loved the club. Best of luck to him. Could definitely thump the ball.

    Hilariously the draft profiles of almost every key forward in that year’s draft pool said “Kicked four goals on Kieran Collins” like it was an achievement.

    Why, what’s happened in the last year?

    Redraft Lochlan Veale. Understand he’s been running around in the Colac Tigers’ reserves and is dominating.

    Melbourne had two opportunities to cash in on Oliver and didn’t, so at least we don’t have to live with that regret.

    Would love to have landed a Wilkie or Butters but I don’t see any point in recruiting just because it’s trade week. If no one who is going to slot straight into the side in an area of need is available I don’t want us chasing list cloggers. Look at where Coffield and O’Brien took us.

    The Jamarra Thread

    Agree generally. There are things we could do better, but we have no historical advantage (no real home ground advantage, no geographical advantage, small base etc) so to perform as we have over the Bevo era has meant we’ve had to be smart elsewhere to compensate. I think we trade, draft and...

    The Jamarra Thread

    We did well to quarantine Jamarra from what I can work out, but bad behaviour can be a contagion. See WC in the 2000s, Melbourne’s recent issues, Stringer and Hind bringing bikies into the rooms etc. There are plenty of sketchy characters out there who love hanging out with AFL players, and it...
