Two things for Bulldogs bring in a Ruc like Goldy and recruit Kyle.
Wonder if Goldy will entertain a trade now he doesn't know who his coach will be.
I would gladly ship the Doggies Ben Brown for Dunkley :p
They've been crying out for a key forward for seasons. If we only need to pick up his brother we should just do it, plenty of spots on the list!

WESTERN Bulldogs defender Lachie Young is set to join North Melbourne under a little-known rule after knocking back a contract offer from the Dogs. AFL.com.au understands Young, who played two games for the Bulldogs this season, is expected to join the Roos as a delisted free agent after knocking back a contract offer from the Dogs.

The Dogs tabled Young, who is out of contract, a new deal for a third season on their rookie list. However under AFL rules if a player is offered a third year on the rookie list he can reject it and automatically become a free agent and move to his club of choice. It means the Kangaroos will not have to give up anything for Young in a trade with the Dogs in a savvy move as they look to rebuild their list after a horror 2020 campaign.

Adam Treloar asked Collingwood two weeks ago whether the club wanted him and the response he received was emphatic.

No we don’t.
As reported by foxfooty.com.au at the time, the direct messaging left the midfielder feeling frustrated and hurt.
Further conversations since have left the player even more disillusioned with the club and hurt by their approach.

The Magpies have told him they don’t see him as part of their plans – despite him reaffirming his preference to stay - and would consider paying more than $200,000 of his 2021 salary even if he was at another club.

They’ve also told him he is difficult to coach at times, with no further explanation or clarification.
Former Magpies recruiter Matt Rendell lifted the lid on the brutal conversation while discussing Collingwood’s list management objectives on Trade Radio.

“My belief is he might have gone to them and asked ‘do you want me?’ Rendell said on Monday.
“And they said ‘no.’ If that is the case, he has a decision to make now.”

The club has been conspicuously quiet on Treloar’s trade situation since the end of the season.

Even president Eddie McGuire has refused to weigh into the narrative around the 27-year-old. Foxfooty.com.au has reached out to list manager Ned Guy on multiple occasions, with no reply.

It’s understood Collingwood players are aware of the conversation that occurred between Treloar and the club. As are rival teams, which see the situation as a club struggling to cope with a squeezed salary cap.

The initial discussion happened just hours before he was on AFL 360 discussing his fiance Kim Ravaillion’s impending move to Queensland to play Super Netball.

Sources close to Treloar confirmed by the time he went on Fox Footy, he had been informed of the club’s preference to trade him.

This whole situation seems very strange.

I suspect there must be more to come out down the track.

They were talking about it on the radio on the weekend. He is on a very big back ended contract and they can see players like Daicos, DeGoey and the Brown brothers increasing their midfield minutes in future while they also want to chase a key forward. To the outside world they would like it to look like Treloar's decision.
