Bulldogs want pick 2 or 3

[nutbean 8,838]

I find it amusing when clubs like Carlton say that we will trade Gartlett out but then I hear from their supporters he is worth a 2nd rounder.

It's a bit like us with Blease - we will facilitate a trade for him - we can't ask anything unrealistic for him as clubs know we are going to delist him.

Cooney's knees problems are well publicised - even by his own club - the only use he is, is if we get injuries to players ( beside knees) - we can use him for spare parts.

[daisycutter 29,615]

Adam Conney and pick 5 for pick 2 and 3 has been offered by the dogies.

An old injury prone ex blown low winner who has 2 year left in him for 2 10 year players.

No thanks

are you kidding?

was this a real offer or some fb/forum dreamer?

source?

The likes of Blease/Tapscott/Evans and a host of others would be sweeteners to deals - nothing more.

exactly...double purpose...off our books onto theirs !!

[MadAsHell 4,212]

No, thanks. I'd prefer to keep pick 3 than get rid of one of our list cloggers and gain a mediocre opposition player.

Disagree on Hrovat. Reckon he's a good young player. But can't say I blame anyone for wanting to keep 2 & 3.

Or not even sweeteners.

I'm cool to trade both picks, in fact, I hope we do. I just want to net something a bit better than Hrovat. : )

Cooney cooked. Bone on bone in the knees.

Been a good player, but I wouldn't have thought he suits us.

& in the head.... no tanks.

[ILLDieADemon 804]

Pretty sure your source for this was a 'suggestion' on BigFooty, and, if so, the suggestion was for pick 2 OR 3, not both.

Still, a hilarious thought. Cooney has no value whatsoever anymore.

I read it the afl website in the trade radio part.

[What 18,810]

name being thrown around a lot is Nathan Hrovat

the kid is 174 centimeters according to footywire

Hed wanna be bloody good if we are moving down 3 places at the top end of the draft for a midget

[monoccular 17,428]

I honestly just don't rate Hrovat enough for him to be the catalyst for this trade, but struggle to think who else they'd offer.

Clay Smith? Underwhelmed.

Wallis likewise, and when would a club ever trade a father-son?

Not only father/son but also legend grandfather/grandson - one J Kennedy.

[SaberFang 7,151]

LOL, Bulldogs fans won't even entertain a trade where we give them pick 3 in exchange for one of their young midfielders, and they keep pick 6.

Apparently the likes of Stringer or Macrae are worth picks 2 & 3. More delusional than Colonwood.

Yeah, someone else said this - but the difference is that JPK wasn't getting a game and wanted to go, while Hawthorn weren't willing to match Sydney's offer and reluctantly traded him.

Hawthorn didn't offer him up in an effort to get a higher draft pick to get a KPF.

Not comparing apples with apples here.

Dogs supporters be like pick 3 and jones for 6. Final offer

I'm warming to hrovat and 6 for 3. I feel he slid in his draft year and was a good clearance player for metro. Reasonably good disposal eff. Only knock is his height and would a centre bounce of hrovat and viney be too short

[Chook in Perth 2,109]

Griffen just walked out of the Kennel.

Big things happening there.

[beelzebub 23,372]

Wow....the Kennel must stink or something !!

Particularly, as Roos has flagged multiple times the interest (and preference) he has for bigger, taller bodied mids.

Didn't he just sign a 1 year contract extension?

As in, a few weeks ago?

[whatwhat say what 22,753]

no, he has a year to go on his contract.

pretty extraordinary stuff. all is not well at the kennel.

[Deestroy All 14,266]

I wouldn't downgrade for Hrovat.

They'd give us Hrovat because he's down the pecking order. Yeah I know, Dom Tyson, Hrovat is no Tyson.

[censored] the Bulldogs.

[ManDee 7,147]

Dogs and Bombers are imploding, makes me feel very happy about MFC

Trade radio says GWS giving up 4 and 7!

[watchtheeyes 1,420]

.@barrettdamian: Then another deal to potentially happen, Carlton to get Jaksch and Mark Wiley + 19 in exchange for pick 7

. @barrettdamian then says picks 4 & 7 will then be used to lure Griffen away from the Bulldogs by the GWS #NABTradeRadio

That happens... and we're going to the draft with # 2 & 3!
