    Linked with the Dees! The Last 6 years.

    In just the last six years:


    Dees take Hannan from Footscray, apparently knowing/believing we’d take him just 3 picks later

    Dees outbid Dogs to secure Jake Lever

    Dees bid on Rhylee West

    Dees take Kyle Dunkley from Footscray at mid season draft

    Dees debate Pickett & Weightman - then trade down the order to take Pickett

    Dogs trade Hannan

    2021 GF

    Dogs 2021 Draft Points trade gives Dees First Round Upgrade to get Van Rooyan, extra points for Sam Darcy.

    Dees trade Hunter

    Dees trade Schache

    Dogs SSP Baker

    (Dees trade Jackson, allows Lobb to be traded)

    Dogs from Hunter (& F3) & Schache, have F2 and F4 National Draft picks on the books

    Round 1 Fixture

    Both have huge 2023 Draft Hands, and could be direct trade competitors next year

    You forgot Bailey Smith and Trac being m8s.

    Look, if we’re two teams who will be around the mark against each other then it’s bound to happen. Nothing would please me
    More than knocking their smug faces out of a flag in 23.

    Two grand finals with a win each. Are the Dees our Victorian rivals and something we can build into a blockbuster?

    I think what it all proves is we are on a similar but not identical journey with our list management and recruitment approach.
    It might also indicate that after our success in 2016 at both AFL and VFL level we came under the microscope by the Dees.

    Don't forget our desperate efforts to lure Matthew Bate across.
