    This is the most believable scenario for mine.

    No matter how you look at it is, he hasn’t said he wants out, it’s media talking not him remember that.

    If the player is insistent that he wants to move then we now need to facilitate it. The issue is Essendon cannot trade their first round pick this year or next so they will have to get us 2 x 2nd round picks after they deal Saad and Daniher

    They actually can't trade their first round pick this year unless they get another in the first round.

    Maybe it would have to be a three way swap?

    They will once the Saad and Daniher deals are completed.
    Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

    Re: Trade Dunkley

    If we lose Dunks and it's as much about reduced midfield minutes and being used in the ruck than it is about the financial offer does this now get addressed with Bevo or do we accept that his views should be supported?

    Would a hb flanker and a injury prone player be worth a first rounder?

    I suspect we don't really want a first round pick. 2 x 2nd rounds might be better for us

    Seeing as Dunks only played 12 games this year after a bad injury I can see Bevo telling him he will play more time in the middle next season.

    Surely if we lose Dunkley, we should be looking at a player(S) to come in. The first round draft picks will just get swallowed with Jamarra bid.
    I will never see #16 the same!!

    Re: Trade Dunkley

    Can you make up the points with a fistful of later picks and keep your early pick(s)?

    They may need to choose between Dunkley and Caldwell.

    Plot twist - we make a late bid for Caldwell (although to odds of a GWS player coming to us are near zero).

    No you can't if the bid comes before your first pick. If only there was a thread dedicated to this subject.
