The article does not say we are keen.

It says "Richmond and Western Bulldogs are two clubs believed to be looking to shore up their defensive half in the draft and trade periods."
The title in the link says we are keen:

Any interest by the way in Bellchambers who is also mentioned in the article?

I believe headlines are written by editors not the person who wrote the article.

The editor has just done what the writer wants joe public to do - join the dots, make assumptions and run with it.  ;D



“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.
 
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."

Yahweh? or the great Clawski?

Given half the competition are Vic based clubs and it will take some what of a big name player to get the 1 selection in the mini draft. I think the odds of this happening is and always was high.

It's probably Collingwood and Dayne Beams or Brent McCaffer. They tend to overrate their players just a touch.

Wouldn't call either of them a big name player. Yep hard to trade with clubs like Essendon and Collingwood who overrate their players much to our delight with Bachar Houli. :lol :rollin :lol

Damien Ferret tweeted that he's hearing that some BIG names might be shocked that they're trade bait on Monday

Love it how they dont name names. I could say that. If it doesnt happen just claim 'fell through at the last minute because its really hard to get big trades to go through"  :wallywink

Latest BF rumour ................

Big news coming out next week involving 4 teams Saints, GWS, Blues & Tigers. Goddard & Dal Santo involved in this trade and a young star that quite a few clubs want.

It's going to be massive, this deal between the four clubs has been discussed between them for quite a while now.

Can't really say too much but it involves 3 Blues who havent signed yet and one that has a year left on his contract. The Tigers will be traded two of these players for draft pics which will be passed on to a certain club. Tigers will give up one of its current stars and a fringe player

The thing here is that the Tiger fans are going to be over the moon, even though they are going to give up something this trade will push them into the top 8 next year. Unfortunately for the Blues they have to give up quite a lot and some Carlton fans are going to be upset, but when they look at the gains they will be very happy indeed.
