But think of the missed headline opportunities?

West leaves West for the West. It writes itself.

Although now I suppose we've got West declines West for the West.

What about "Go West young West"

What about "Go West young West"

Not bad. Needs more West.

Not bad. Needs more West.

No West for West: "I'm staying West" said West in the West

[josie]

The West that young West rejects, so he can stay just a little west. I’ll show myself out the door.

This coming from the guy who is more East than West.

Very happy to hear of West staying.

West was someone that had serious flaws in his game last year which I thought would potentially cause him to wash out, he worked on those flaws in the VFL this year and was able to crack the team. I do think he needs to find the balance between selfless and selfish, there were a few times this season where he was probably in the best position to take a shot but passed it off.

I agree, and on another note, there was more than one occasion when he was burnt by the mids, where he was all by himself in the fwd 50, and ignored. Hopefully next year that doesn’t happen too often.

Great news about Westie, hopefully he can help fill the hole Dunkley will leave in our mid field.

Well I for one am very happy to keep Westie on the list. Showed some tenacity and genuine attack on the ball. Clean strong hands in the air and on the ground, and a burning desire to be competitive. Seemed pretty reliable in front of goals as well. Plus I want to keep that pedigree in our stables. If #branddunks leaves there's an opening he just may fill. My prediction is he'll fill it damn well.

I agree DD. I think he and Garcia are primed for the inside mid role that Dunks was going to take from Libba at some point. Dunks going means we need another 18 months of LIbba magic in the middle before their tank and bodies are at a level to really compete and extract and distribute.

With Dunkley confirming his destination request lets look at how we get this deal done and the implications of what it might mean.

I'd be asking for their first round pick this year and next year and would be willing to consider giving back our 2nd rounder for this year.

Brisbane first rounder this year is worth 1,112 points, if you assume (it's a risk) that they finish around the same spot next year that's 2,224 points.
Our 2nd round pick this year (#29) is worth is worth 653 points but that will get pushed back a bit with bids but might need to be offered to get the deal done.
That would give us a net gain of 1,571 points for Dunkley or about pick 8 overall.
We might even be able to use the 2023 Brisbane pick to trade back into the 2022 draft.

For Brisbane, losing McStay to Collingwood should net them 2 of Collingwoods 3rd round picks with a value of around 730 points.
That would give them pick 29, 33, 42 , 44 and 47 and a net value of points of 2,684. They'll need to find more though with 2 father sons to cover and the very likely scenario that Ashcroft goes #1.
