Trade Dunkley

[Yankee Hotel Foxtrot]

My only concern is whether or not there is a WWE element going down with the final day...
I really, really hope this isn't being scripted like a melo-drama by the AFL... but I would not put it past them to do it..
The thing that worries me is the statement 'It's pick 8 take it or leave it'
Surely going into this Essendon had to know they would need to do something pretty amazing to prise someone of Josh's stature who is contracted out of the place....
He had to know pick 8 on itself is not an attractive offer that the Dogs would even entertain a trade?

Sam 'big balls' Power... I like his style! (as at 12/11 - 4.45pm)

He quietly stared down Justin Reid from the Crows last year with regard to Keath - Reid wanted a 1st rounder and ended up with a 3rd. Ditto with the Saints for Bruce - they also wanted our 1st and didn't get it.

I'm confident he will do what is best for the club today.

The dodo (Raphus cucullatus) is an extinct flightless bird .....

Sorry BAD didn't see it number one and slightly different wording number 2 . Apart from that I love your post.

cheers mate.

Best outcome is keep Dunkley, and bring in Treloar for not too much.

The Western Bulldogs have stopped dealing with Essendon.

They now want Dunkley and Treloar in the same team next year.

The Dogs have offered a future second round pick for Treloar.

It’s beginning to get frantic.

EXACTLY what was said about Carlton yesterday before a deal was done

Oh and come on down Damian Barrett wouldn't be a sh1tty dance party without his Purple laying down some of his lame beats... He's now weighing in on the negative hub happenings as the reason Josh wants to leave.

WHY DOES DUNKLEY WANT OUT?
Some have said it's for the chance to play as a full-time midfielder, others have said it's for money. Damian Barrett said otherwise on the Trade Deadline Day show.


There is a culture issue...he experienced something in the hubs that he didn’t like, and maybe even prior to that as well.

And of course Essendon have the best culture !

Lethlean from Saints says Treloar one of best mids in competition.

Even though Bruce sucked for the value of the assets at the time that was a seriously impressive move.

I do wonder if they're a little dirty they committed to Crouch so early. Treloar is really good but would seem to fit the Saints especially well.

Yeah, wouldn't be surprised. All this 'take it or leave it' Dogs have walked away narrative, and then magically at the death, Dodo offers us 2 top 10 picks and the deal is done.

I reckon it's more likely we keep Dunkley and Collingwood keep Treloar / trade JS.

JS now a North player

Huh? When culture issues at hubs first was mentioned he backed us up saying we were one of the better behaved clubs.

Power has played this very well.

Stay strong, king.

Perhaps this is all for show, and in a few moments it'll come crashing down, but I am invested in the outcome here more than usual. Been anticipating the news one way or another all day.

Gut says it doesn't happen from here.
