Re: The Moving-Rolling Delisting/Retiring/Trading Thread 2017
Issues , do we really have any ? Just because a player gets told he needs to be more commited and is a little upset all of a sudden the media is all over us with rumour after rumour.
Only issues we have that's fact is we didn't perform to expectations last year and there will be a few changes because of it , not necessarily just the players I would imagine either.
We have to Change the list by 4 anyway and I would imagine the full commitment statement would have been made to a few players.

If you kicked five goals and Tom Boyd kicked five goals, Tom Boyd kicked more goals than you.

I thought Prudden was a pick in the 50's?

Actually I heard Kingy on On the Couch saying we will bounce back next year and make finals. He must have had a change of heart.

Just had it relayed to me, not sure where he said it specifically.

I heard Dahl's name mentioned on SEN's Crunch Time show this morning and as mentioned the reference was to a Greg Denham article.
The article itself was in The Australian this morning and covered the upcoming trade period generally i.e not just us. This was the snippet from the article:
The enigmatic Jake Stringer is out of favour at the Western Bulldogs and will play elsewhere next year. In a chequered 89-game *!career that included playing in a premiership and being dropped to the VFL in the same season, he’s on the nose again at Whitten Oval, two years after his All-Australian selection for the 2015 season in which he kicked 56 goals.
All Stringer’s key performance indicators are down this season, including goals — he’s kicked 24 in 16 games — but rival clubs will be interested in him. Certainly St Kilda and Collingwood are sniffing around and Richmond are poised. There are other premiership players on rocky ground at the Dogs, who will field interest from clubs on contracted players including Luke Dahlhaus. Watch this space on that front.

Jake's misread the play terribly here . You can't be tardy on things like rehab and rocking up late , and getting on the squirt to much, and expect no retribution. Also poor form

If true it is a very bad look to the group too, young and old players, as a whole if Jake kept getting away with it.

Re: The Moving-Rolling Delisting/Retiring/Trading Thread 2017
Mark Stevens said on AFL Gameday that it was the Bulldogs telling Stringer that they are going to be putting him up for trade and not Stringer wanting out. If this is right it makes me feel sick.
Why on earth would the club initiate the trade. Is he that hard to work with. We trade him which gives him a rude awakening and he in turn pulls his finger out and becomes the Gary Ablett Snr type player that comes around once in a lifetime at our club and we traded him because he had a down couple years on and off the field.
I hope Mark Stevens is off the mark.
They've done studies you know, 60% of the time, it works every time!

He said we'll be lucky to get a top 15 pick too.
Some dumb work going on here.
