Re: Confirmed Trades 2021

He would be a good pick up for a lot of teams but for Melbourne he's a depth player

It's an odd decision for him to goto Melbourne if he wants to actually play.

I actually wouldn't mind if we got ourselves a similar player. Injuries always happen, having a big senior mid in reserve ready to go is nice to have.

Melbourne smart getting Dunstan. Unlikely to have such a good run with injuries in 2022.

Re: Confirmed Trades 2021

Will he, though? He couldn't keep him out of trouble at Adelaide.

Essendon also interested

Stengle to Geelong sounds happening. Will be a boom or bust.

Yep. We could use a player of his skill set.

Spot on, he had a solid season and as a FA there is minimal risk and cost to them.

The Gold Coast are loaded for picks next year now.

Looks like a strategy in place.

Yeah, they've got very few open list spots this year so are offloading picks to have a big crack at next years draft.

They certainly need to do something, their record is deplorable and they are just treading water.
After all the concessions, handouts and ten years in the competition they have never finish better than 12th.
Stacked up against any start-up club its a very ordinary record to say the least.
There is so only so many times you can go back to the drawing board, AFL should have let Tassie have a team and not this mob.

This is probably one of the quietest trade periods in recent memory. Not just from an "everything happens on the last day" perspective either. There’s just not a lot of player movement this year. Covid uncertainty?

I’m steeling myself for us to finish up the trade period with Tim O’Brien and a bunch of point upgrades.

Apparently most clubs have very little salary cap room and available list spots. Not much room to maneuver so it requires certain deals to get done to enable other deals to flow.

Cerra to the Blues in exchange for Carlton’s pick No.6 and a future third-round selection.

Re: Confirmed Trades 2021

The Western Bulldogs have earned an extra third round selection in the upcoming 2021 NAB AFL Draft in a three-club trade, which sees Lewis Young traded to Carlton.


The Bulldogs obtained selection 52 in the Continental Tyres Trade Period deal, adding to the extra picks obtained in a separate four-way deal with St Kilda, Melbourne and Adelaide on Wednesday.


As part of the arrangement, Carlton traded Sam Petrevski-Seton to West Coast in exchange for pick 52, which was then on-traded to the Dogs to facilitate the trade for Young.


Young played 24 games over five seasons at VU Whitten Oval, after being taken with pick 49 in the 2016 Draft.


“We thank Lewis for his contribution to the Western Bulldogs and wish him all the best for the remainder of his AFL career,” said Bulldogs’ General Manager of List Management and Football Projects, Sam Power.


“We’re pleased to have significantly improved our draft hand at this stage of the trade period, which will give us some flexibility over the next couple of months.”


The Bulldogs now hold selections 23, 44, 45, 52 and 93 for the upcoming Draft, to be held on November 24 and 25.
