I'd be very disappointed to see Tutt go. Not sure why we are so hell bent on upgrading Campbell either.

I wouldn't want Tutt to go either but it's hard to see who will make room. We need some outside players but if they are too outside they may not survive in our team.

Just went to bulldogs inside the kennel Hooper Mulligan And Moles cut with the 2 retirements that makes five Jason McCartney said we want five picks in the draft and elevate 2 to 3 rookies JJ Jong and Campbell . Talk of the 17 year old draft and Josh Caddy not much trading to be expected this draft except one player he wouldn't name depending on if he wants to stay at his current club. Still 3 to 4 players to get the chop.

The club will not be trading for any one over 21/22 years old (Source Macca), so it may be a GC or GWS player they are looking at.

No idea thats a club decision but I wouldn't be unhappy if we got him.

It was basically the first player that came to mind knowing he is a nth sunshine boy

I couldn't see Tutt making way unless his attitude was off a little from where it should be. He missed a lot of football this year, and I'd be interested to see if his recovery and rehabilitation habits contributed to that.

He's clearly talented by foot and hand, and he is quick. He's also shown more than many on his level from the outside looking in.

For mine, I think the following are going to make way for freshly listed (rookie and main) players beyond those already listed as retired or going:

Skinner
Greenwood
Veszpremi

Adding that to Moles, Hargrave, Hooper, Mulligan and Gilbee we have seven spots available across the Rookie list and senior list with eight players touted as coming on board.

Maybe due to our lack of salary cap pressure we can afford to off load Sherman and pay him out, without getting any reward at the trade table, thoug for me this would be a silly move as he would still have a small amount of currency.

Obvious choice is Skinner. Also Markovic or Panos if his contract is up (though it probably isn't)

and elevate 2 to 3 rookies JJ Jong and Campbell.

I've been wondering what we're going to do with Austin - I'm assuming the emergence Talia etc has hurt his elevation chances, though he was impressive before getting injured

Thanks! Let the speculation begin on who that player / club is. For the sake of the speculation no is to say Bate!

He's a FA so we won't have to trade. I can see him with us next season.

Why would he want to leave Sydney?

I have no idea. It's a rumor I've heard and nothing more.

Fair enough. Seems strange as he's in their best 22.
