With List reductions this will grow.

With List reductions this will grow.

Obviously. Dunkley could make it 4, Treloar could make it 3, so we are back to 3 net. For draft point purposes I think we probably need a net 5 spots for draft night and a say a couple for lists shortening. That's 10 needing to go, so the six that will go. So four more delistings.

JT seems redundant with Martin. Then there's 3 more potentially.

That has really progressed.

Treloar to do medical with Bulldogs

By Michael Gleeson

Adam Treloar will do a medical when he meets with the Western Bulldogs today.
Sources said the Bulldogs were keen to assess his hamstrings, given Treloar's injury history.
The club want to be prepared and informed should a trade develop.
As reported earlier today by Michael Gleeson, the Dogs remain of the view that they could trade for Treloar unconnected to any decision on Josh Dunkley, who has asked for a move to Essendon.


The Dogs were keen to meet with Treloar to get a clearer picture of whether there is merit in progressing talks about a possible trade for the star Magpie, who has been squeezed out at Collingwood.

So North get Lachie Young for a 7 pick downgrade in the 4th round. Essentially free.

I hope this is a down payment of good will if we try to tempt North for Pick 2.

You’d hope so. They would want plenty of picks after all their list cuts. But I won’t hold my breath. We have a tendency of giving players away virtually free.

[Grantysghost]

Sounds like Treloar may happen then. Maybe a deal has been done between the clubs and it was about convincing him. If he's agreed then last step is possibly the medical. I'm happy with this I think. Will see what we cough up I assume next years first and back ourselves in next year.

[The Underdog]

Surely impossible we keep Dunkley AND get Treloar.

$$ is one, sharing mid minutes is another.

The other question to ask is I wonder if we have any plans to play Bont more forward?

It’d be worth it, just to tell Dunks he’s going to be a permanent forward...

I actually thought the other day that one way to keep Dunkley happy would be to put Bont forward more, but adding Treloar to the mix completely blows things up.

[bulldogsthru&thru]

I think the medical is just so if a deal can eventuate we’re fully aware with what we’re getting. Oh and that he also is willing to play for us.

Wasn't he just going to sign with them for free? We did well to turn this around and use a player we weren't going to keep into someone we will use regularly. Fingers crossed on regularly

Both Young and Martin could have been picked up as free agents.

Our choice with Young was either offer him a spot on the main list, or let him go. I assume our preferred option was to give him another rookie contract, but with north offering a main list contract that allowed them to get him for free.

I don't think we've done anything wrong here. Good luck Lachie - don't get too good!

Martin ruck, English forward, Dunkley forward / second ruck for the next two years.

Yeah I view it as a building inspection when buying a house. You don't not bid on a multi-million dollar asset without doing an inspection.

[1eyedog]

Would you think if Treloar has agreed to a medical he has agreed in principle to come over?
