      Even with his injury struggles? No doubt about his talent but his durability is a concern

        The thing Libba would have added Saturday is someone to stand thier ground and stand up for his team mates. Sorely missing this week - and a symptom of a lot of young players being shell shocked by the intensity of finals.

        I’m a believer he can get back to his best - it’s such a shame we didn’t get to see him properly this year after “his best preseason” to assess how likely that it. For me, we’re still wishing on a prayer a little

          Yep an All Australian waiting to happen. He and Naughty would be the best forward/defender in the competition.

            Seriously I love what Moore brings but he just can't stay on the park he's too high risk for the cost. He was down the race twice last weekend against the Cats. Happens most weeks.
            But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

              FINALS EXIT ALLOWS DOGS TO RAMP UP TALKS

              The Western Bulldogs will ramp up talks with a number of out of contract players now the club is out of finals.


              The players took part in Mad Monday and will have exit meetings at the club this week, with the Western Bulldogs linked with a number of players ahead of the 2019 trade period.

              Jack Martin, Alex Keath, Adam Tomlinson and Josh Bruce are among the players rumoured to be considering moving to play under Luke Beveridge

                The Age is reporting that Tomlinson is going to Melbourne on a four year deal.

                Oh yeah, since no mention of Smith it just mean he is coming for sure!

                  How many KPD do Melbourne want? May, Lever, Oscar McDonald, Frost and now Tomlinson. Tom McDonald was used back again this year as well. They should have a crack at Carlisle too while they are at it
                  They've done studies you know, 60% of the time, it works every time!

                    It’s reported Melbourne see him as a wingman not a key position player.

                      If I put the tinfoil hat on - maybe Cameron dropped Tomlinson because he didn’t trust him to go in hard enough against his future team mates....

                            Must admit I don't get the Tomlinson hype. For mine, he is a bit of everything and a whole lot of nothing.

                                A report today/last night says Carlton all in on Papley & Betts. Surely that means they’re out on Martin.
