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.

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.

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.

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

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.

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

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.

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

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

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

Griffen just walked out of the Kennel.

Big things happening there.

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

As in, a few weeks ago?

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.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
