Alex Neal-Bullen
He is an athlete, not a footballer. 6 years in the system and is still not one touch with his possessions.

Isaac Smith
His a UFA. No pick required.

Jared Polec
The way they lift the arm up should be deemed prior opportunity and these flogs should get pinned every time. Selwood won't get a kick

Farewell Braydon Preuss
You do that and your left with Matty Eagles as your ruckmen for a flag tilt. Answers the question why there are 3+ teams pushing for the contracted Pruess signature. If your in the window, you need a ruck.

Farewell Braydon Preuss
For a ruckmen, who notoriously take 5+ years to develop and fill an immediate need on many lists right now.... Yes early second rounder will be a minimum. Take a look at the Rhys Stanley trade 5 or so years ago. Something like P60 and stanley for P20. He too was contracted and he too filled a ruck void for Geelong. Midfielders and flankers grow on trees, 200 cm big men who possess some sort of football ability (all be it limited) do not.

Farewell Braydon Preuss
I'd guess we weren't expecting to bottom out last year and have Jackson on our list. No way we let him go if Jackson isn't around.
-
Farewell Braydon Preuss
Given he is contracted and certainly a required player.. Anything less than a early second round pick is a big loss from our point of view. Watch Mahoney be the good bloke and get him to where he needs to be for a swap of third and forth round picks or some [censored] like that.

Tom McDonald
It's funny I see tmac as a perfect fit for norf. Mainly because he can be played at both ends of the ground where as brown cannot. He would be useful to their young backs and forwards depending on how much they are getting spanked by haha.

Norf want Polec off their books. We want tmac off ours. They will need a swingman to help out with their rebuild we need another wingman. Seems like a match made in heaven. Would even happily hand over p22 as part of it if norf take some of polecs contact (they will need to pay someone to be close to their 95% of the cap) allowing us to go hard for Cameron.

Oliver Rumours on Footy Classified
If he was worried about the direction of the club why the [censored] would he go to carlton? This would make a lot more sense if he was linked to a top 4 team, but carlton have performed worse than us in every year of Clayton's career bar 2019 when they finished 3rd last above us. They were over the moon with their year this year and they finished 2 wins behind us in a year we are bitterly disappointed. The only reason he would to to carlton is for the cash but if cash is what he is after you would just take the 1.5 mil from the Roos.

Jack Viney Restricted Free Agent
Purely gut feel. Agree we don't bat deep enough in the midfield, however we have too many one dimensional mids.. I'd argue the Jack, Angus & Clarry are the only players who have no ability to play anywhere else on the ground other than on the inside. Clarry is out best mid, so he can occupy the inside for most of the game. However I don't think we can carry a team with two other players who cannot play anywhere else but on the inside. If we traded out a Jack or Angus so that we can acquire an outside mid with sublime skills I'd be all for it. It's a tough one, on talent you would take Angus over Jack. However Jack would be the player id least like to line up against.

Jack Viney Restricted Free Agent
One thing is for sure I would hate to play against JV. I really do think we are tossing up between keeping him or Brayshaw.

The Zac Merrett Thread
They can want two top 10 picks all they want but there isn't a chance they get two top 10s for him.

The Zac Merrett Thread
There was a fair bit of talk about in on bomber blitz about a week ago. One poster brought up that Merrit isn't happy (he got shot down pretty hard) but there was a bit of a discussion on it. The OP mentioned carlton as a potential destination however. They then started saying the only way they do the deal is for Cripps.... Classic bombers

We desperately need a gun key forward
Yes Cameron will come at a cost but look at the teams willing to offer the cash up for him. They know exactly what they are doing. He is a genuine match winner, will add 50+ goals and increase the output of others around him. Not to mention the increase memberships it will provide. May and lever are great but people dont go to the footy to watch backmen stop goals. It's time the club grew a set and offered up a serious contract for a serious player. If it means we lose Brayshaw/Viney (mainly due to cap space) so be it. We have many options on the inside. If we can bring across Saad and Cameron this trade period, we would finally have a complete list.

DEEDAY: Dockers vs Bulldogs
There isn't a player in the AFL I dislike more than hunter. He is such a [censored]

DEEDAY: Dockers vs Bulldogs
Well good news. Dogs completely and utterly out played the dockers for that quarter however we are only 2 goals behind.

Fuuuuuuck

Nice having a 2 X Brownlow winner on our team

[censored] yes. Let's go boys!!! Kicking against the wind here too

DEEDAY: Dockers vs Bulldogs
So do we deserve to play finals more than the saints and pies?
-
DEEDAY: Dockers vs Bulldogs
They also lost to Collingwood, st Kilda and carlton by a combined total of 142 points. Not sure if your logic really adds up.
-
DEEDAY: Dockers vs Bulldogs
Yeah not really understanding this dribble about how we don't deserve to play finals. We beat st kilda, pies & giants all finals contenders or there abouts. Lost by under a kick to two 4 four teams. And just had a poor showing against Freo and Sydney. (Freo since have shown a lot of teams how much they are clicking) The dogs for [censored] sake lost to the blues by 10 goals looked no where near it against pies and saints however have snuck a decent ground out win against the Eagles and played well against us. Saints are the same had some horrible losses including norf, the Eagles B team at the Gabba , Freo, but again they have also had some great wins port and Richmond spring to mind. Who ever is in the 8 tonight deserves to be there.

We desperately need a gun key forward
This is the year to get one. With daniher, brown and Cameron all available this is really a chance to pounce. Cameron is the one I would be going hard for.
