Apparently Adelaide and the Doggies are miles apart on the Keath trade.
Yeah I've heard those rumours too. It is difficult valuing/assessing a player like Keath given he is 28 in Jan, 2020 and has only played 30 games of AFL football. I feel like pick 45 is closer to his value than pick 32. Our pick 45 was originally like pick 40/41 before the GCS compensation, GWS and Tigers. In the end, Bulldogs can't do much about dropping 4 spots. Clubs also need to take into consideration Father/Son, Academy and NGA players - this means that picks disappear when matching another bid, and there seem to be a few of these selections in the first and second round, so our pick 45 could make its way down to pick 39.

Just a question from some random, sounds interesting, my ears are pricked.

Wines rumours have been squashed already. Port Adelaide has released a statement in response to reports that co-captain Ollie Wines' camp approached Carlton regarding a potential trade, stating that: "At no stage has Ollie requested a trade from our club. Equally, at no stage has Port Adelaide contemplated trading Ollie to any other club and he remains a required player."

Id be all for trading Wines, not to Carlton though. If Sydney said well give you Hayward, Dawson + pick/s for him Id well and truly think about it though.

Yeah I saw the statement, but, they're still talking about it. Rumours over a couple of weeks that the Blues were going to land a big bodied mid to help Cripps out. Again I didn't know it may have been Wines or how the Blues would get it done anyway considering they need Papley and Martin through the door too.
