I hear the position has recently become available 
In all seriousness though, has done the miles at more than 1 club and has obviously been having some sort of involvement recently
It would seem a strange timing to sack D.R if we didnt have an idea already of who we are after
Welcome to Essendon: Patrick Cripps. (To help out Merrett)
SOS - âPatty Cripps comes out of contract next seasonâ
Dods - 'Make it happen Steve"
Pickers has his hands all over this. A Pickers strategy to a T. Can expect a Saturday HS exclusive in the lead up to the trade period. The only time he has ever deviated is when he got Gary back to Geelong. Dogs will 100% cave.
Apparently Seb Ross has been seen touring Tulla facilities.
I dont know what to think about this,
Is he any good?
Also wtf we are literally going after everyone lol
Related to Jobe.
Thoughts on this trade?
Essendon
Out: 6, In: Dunkley
Western Bulldogs
Out: Dunkley
In: Treloar, picks 29, 44
Collingwood:
Out: Treloar
In: Pick 20
Adelaide:
Out: 20,29, 44
In: 6
Collingwood not getting value for Treloar but I honestly think a pick between 20-30 is all they will get for him. They need him off the books or else will exceed the salary cap potentially.
Dogs donât want the high pick, just points.
@Speedy_Gonzales, in the last thread you said:
Been clarified on here points value doesnât change if picks move back for NGA/FS scenarios
I know someone in the thread claimed that, but did anyone actually show proof? Because my understanding is that it is incorrect. Picks have the value of their positions when the bid is made is my understanding.
Id say we need to give more and Adelaide would want more, Pies probably want more too
Looks like Clinton Casey. He has aged so much after his highly successful leadership of Richmond.
Doggies wouldnât have the salary cap space for Treloar surely. And if theyâre not getting a saving on salary cap, would Collingwood really accept #20?
Finally, if you believe Bulldogs fans theyâre not going to take any live picks in the draft (just NGA x2 + a F/S). So those later picks theyâre getting are of limited value. #29 would be useful as it would replace their #48 with more points, but they donât need #44.
If anything, theyâd probably be willing to trade #48 out and not take #44. Realistically, you probably donât need Adelaide as part of that trade, we could in that situation just split #6 to get a pick ~#20 and #29.
Until the tam actually turns it around then trade period is where we can cheer with confidence.

pick 7/8 to essendon for Saad
potentially something to Blues
Blues cant find someone to split 7.
I got clarification after my discussion with @Ants and i was incorrect. If Adelaide gets pick 2, the dogs pick 12 value will lower in points. Meaning the Dogs have even less point than we originally thought.
Pick 26 for Fanta to Blues?
My thoughts leading into FA & Trade periodâŚ
Players Out:
Picks Out:
Players In:
Use Pick 2 to secure KPF (e.g. Logan MacDonald)
With Brand and Eyre coming in our KPP stocks are buildingâŚ
Still require a KPF for now, whether we can utilize someone for 2years until thenâŚ
The HBF role Iâm sure we can find a possible replacement for 12months from within/other clubsâŚ
Pick 234. Pick 7 is absolutely what he is worth given the money they are allegedly throwing at him.
Cutler and Townsend
