Trade and Free Agency rumours

[Bombay Airconditioning 6,347]

If I was Sydney I’d tell Buddy to go.

You've got Amartey and Logan McDonald plus another 1-2 years out of Reid. 

Buddy has already made 10 million plus from footy, but clearly that’s not enough. So along with his wife tell the club he wants more money, than he’s leaving, now makes out he’s the bigger man and is putting talks on hold. Comical at best. Id be using the money to secure all of their young talent. As good as Buddy has been it’s time to move on.

2023 Dee’s forward line 

 

Koz.          Naughton / Larkey (either one).   ANB

Fritsch.           J.Kennedy.      Spargo 

 

Emerg:   TMac, BB, JVR (replace JK in 2024)

This is unbelievably awful. 

[YesitwasaWin4theAges 6,684]

Would not say no to Larkey at all but i reckon we have diddley squat chance of getting him if Norf pull off the coup of getting Clarkson.

In saying that if he wants to play finals and we place a nice contract in front of him he might be tempted.

We definitely need a Key Forward that is not injury prone and is entering his peak, everything Weed was suppose to be.

WCE cant trade their first pick coz they havent used two in a four year cycle

What they can do is pick 1 or 2 plus second rnd pick to Dogs for dogs first round pick.

I think the rule is they have to have a first round pick

The dogs may look at this not sure if he is a rfa next year, if he is maybe a other early pick for the dogs to add to there FS, NGA picks over last 2 Drafts.

Cane Cornes saying Melb should be trying to drag Kennedy out of retirement isn't crazy.

2 years, one with coaching involved.  Tell him we will manage him throughout the year and aim for about 10 games.

it's pretty crazy and wont happen, but I'm not against it.  could be a handy coach to get in too.

Gee 10 games? 

I guess it still beats 10 games of having nothing.

If Josh Kennedy didn't want to retire, he'd still be playing at West Coast.  Can't see him coming to Melbourne.

That doesn't fix the forward line.

My wife’s convinced that she heard the commentary team mention something about Naughton leaving during the Dogs Dockers game yesterday. I missed it and it was well before I read @chook fowler’s post.

He’d certainly improve our forward line in multiple areas. Naughton’s contested marking is much publicised, but he is mobile and good with fwd pressure as well. Could the Dogs afford to lose him with JUH & Darcy being the part of the future fwd line?

It would seem lobb is heading their way too.

I assume they have a third tall, second ruck role in mind for him.

But if naughton stays they will have a surfeit of talss many tall forwards - Darcy (though played back in his first game) naughton, Lobb, Bruce and JUH.

They need a gun defender. Perhaps naughton is worried they'll send him back.

Did Naughton start as a back? I can't remember if WB started him in the backline and then out of necessity he was moved forward.

Dogs are weak in defence and I personally can't see them really challenging until they sort that out 

They have plenty in reserve at the front end it seems so maybe a Naughton move if they can get a key defender in is not so impossible to contemplate

He would be the perfect fit for us 

[whatwhat say what 22,684]

dogs will have jones, keath, and darcy as key defenders and naughton, lobb, and juh as key forwards in 2023

perhaps we should be throwing our hat in for bruce, as he always destroys us*

*actually, doesn't

Kennedy is cooked, body can’t handle AFL football demands anymore just getting up for games has been a big issue for the last 2 seasons.

Will make a few cameo appearances in the next couple of years for Cervantes and Northampton in WA country football

I wish we had that problem.

Bruce looks cooked since his return from the ACL. They've used him as a second ruck to English, so he's probably not in their plans long term. A forward line of Lobb, Naughton and JUH is a perfect mix. Each has different qualities.

And I think they're addressing their KPB issues. Keith and Darcy down back plus Liam Jones, and all of a sudden they look strong in that area.
