Trade Dunkley

[Go_Dogs]

What's the statute of limitations re blame for this?

It’s like murder, there arent any limitations.

If we are able to garner a good ruck and possibly a half decent tall backman by trading Dunks if he does not want to stay or asks to much then that might not be so bad. Could provide opportunities in mid for Garcia and West.

You’d think with Treloar bring his best mate he’d stay but who knows. Doubt the girlfriend’s ?1 year? contract in Adelaide is a big enough lure alone for him to play for Crows.

I think we’re too over balanced with mids and we can’t fit them in as it is, so we’re forced to rotate the likes of Bazlenka/Adz/Dunks through the forward line.

If we can turn Dunks into a quality ruck or another top line forward, we may be better off as a premiership contending squad.

His partner is from Queensland originally, probably has a 1 year contract and questionable job security in Adelaide. What happens when Dunks signs a 5 year contract at the Crows and she signs elsewhere in a year or 2?

Former teammate of Tim English's partner and Josh's sister. We really need our own netball team.

Don't forget Treloar's wife plays in QLD

And Tim's in Perth?

Adam has 4yrs remaining on his contract…. Tim & Josh are both out of contract at the end of this year.

Adam made the decision to sign with us knowing his partner would be living interstate… So that’s the difference.

I'd be surprised if Dunkley left Melbourne.

I know it leads to a lot of speculation, but how many players have actually moved clubs because their wife was playing netball interstate?

[GVGjr]

Been over 12 months since he wanted out and still no signature. I just dont see him staying.

Don't get me wrong because I wish the deal had been done but I still think we will get him signed again.
At this stage for me the fact that we haven't got the signature yet doesn't mean we won't get it.

[Go_Dogs]

If we are travelling well as a team, I’m confident we’ll get the signature. If there is a bit of slippage, maybe some extra $ another club could offer becomes more appealing.

If we can turn Dunks into a quality ruck

Bevo already tried that.

The netball season isn't that long is it? As I understand it, she's still living in Melbourne for the majority of the year.

...nor are the financial rewards for playing netball particularly great. I'm all for being a supportive partner, but if you are being paid $500k and she is being paid $20k, why exactly would you move states because she did?

[kruder]

If he was going to sign he'd have done it by now imo.

I reckon he is backing himself in early to add the extra $$$ to his contract with us.

Because you might be able to get an extra $50k to $100K by doing so!

It is just another BS media story
