They’re already talking to Sam Power and Dunkley. We should be contacting every Brisbane player manager as we have the right to do to work in the Dunkley trade to see if they want out. They won’t sack him in time, if they do after squibbing it today.

Exactly. I hope some good Brisbane players refuse to stay there and look to our club culture. This trade could have been blown wide open.

Hopefully Bevo is not implicated in any of this Hawks stuff with the alleged treatment of Indiginous players. He was a line coach in his time over there.

I see the CEO of the MCC who was CEO of the Hawks during that time remains in his role as he has not been implicated. Let’s hope the same for Bevo.

It is AFEL makey upey, but...

Motlop, 4 years, $500,000 a season - End of First Round compo, Pick 19

McStay, 5 years, $600,000 a season - TBA

Come on Gil, do us a solid on the way out, at least Pick 19.

Yes, but if Brisbane have picks 15, 19 (McStay compo), 33 , 44 and a future first rounder - they've got enough draft capital to secure their father/sons and forced to pay through the nose for Dunkley.

The McStay compo makes the likelyhood of a better Dunkley trade much better in my humble.

A quick comparison of what I think is the nearest recent trade on value:

Josh Dunkley 2022 averages on 23 games: 25.4 Disposals, 6.2 Marks, 6.1 Tackles, 4.4 Clearances .6 Goal Assists - Total 13 Goals, 11 Behinds

Dylan Shiel 2018 averages on 23 games: 26 Disposals, 3 Marks, 3.1 Tackles, 4.1 clearances, 2 Goal Assists - Total 6 Goals, 14 Behinds


Shiel Trade: Pick 9, Future Pick 11 to GWS - Shiel and Pick 31 (natural selection before bidding, compo etc)

Dogs demand: Has to be Pick 15 and Future 1st - Dunkley, Pick 65 (if they want it) and ....


... swaps maybe?

- Pick 29 & 37 from us to Brisbane - for - incoming Pick 33 & 44 (slight downgrade in 2nd and 3rd; which 'if' being traded makes no real difference to us as i don't see a Lobb or Collins type trade falling over by a few picks). It's what we did with the Akermanis trade. We promised a second rounder for the trade, but then did a seperate trade for MacDougall which downgraded our second rounder which we sent to Brisbane. If we are promising second and third rounders for player trades, this pick swap allows us to honour our word while bring in two first round picks. Giving Sam Power FOUR first round selections to make a decison on in 2022/2023.

Brisbane net an extra 150 Draft Points equal to Pick 58.


So Dunkley & Pick 58 in points (& 65 if wanted - if so, the points are then equal to Pick 51) - For two firsts
- So Dunkley & Pick 51 in points - For two firsts
- Vs Shiel & Pick 31 - For two earlier firsts, being Picks 9 and 11, here circa Picks 15 and 15.

Seems like a fair trade.




(Playing at home, for the record:

Dogs picks 29 & 59 for McDougall & Pick 34
Pick 34 for Akermanis

History rhyming a little bit maybe)

This is a fair summation - I suspect any haggling will be over the later picks to even the trade up.
I'd love to get two picks in the teens and find a way to take a pick in the 20s to draft as well.

I note the players we've been linked to are either salary dumps or not worth too much draft capital so I suspect (and hope) Power plans to hit the draft this year.
Take a small crumbing forward with a later pick (I've noted the WA kids on West Coast & Freo lists taken late) and rookie a ruck and we'll be fairly well set up.

LIONS HUNT FOR MORE PICKS (https://www.afl.com.au/news/852039/docker-deal-getting-close-lions-hunt-picks-big-saint-going-again?fbclid=IwAR10coJvUKe34jBUe-L7u5I-Uw1WDe6JXHIyLDEdpKvJmFcsEdHc3jU7NaQ)

BRISBANE is on the hunt for more draft picks as the Lions face a busy trade period luring Josh Dunkley to the Gabba as well as father-son pair Will Ashcroft and Jaspa Fletcher.

The Lions have had discussions with multiple clubs around attaining more draft swaps, including Gold Coast, which looms as a possible pick swap partner given its suite of selections.

The Suns are prepared to put pick No.7 on the trade table for the club that takes on Jack Bowes and his heavily backended contract, but also have a stack of other selections that the Lions could eye in the second and third rounds – No.25, 31, 34, 43, 52 (worth 2528 draft points).

Brisbane currently has picks No.15, 33, 44 and 69 (worth 2086 points) in the first four rounds of the draft, but faces matching a bid on gun youngster Ashcroft at the No.1 pick and potentially Fletcher as well within the first round.

The club can go into a points deficit for next year, but will still need to satisfy the Western Bulldogs on a trade for Dunkley.

The Dogs are pushing for two first-round picks in return for Dunkley, who is out of contract but not a free agent. – Callum Twomey

Haha. Essentially if a club chooses to match a bid but does not have sufficient points attached to their draft picks this year they can carry a points deficit into next year. Their first draft pick next year will slide down the draft order to the tune of the points deficit.

Compo Watch

McStay 5 x $600,000

Port’s expecting compo for Amon, 5 x $650,000

“We need to wait and see on that. It’s probably the most lucrative free agent deal from what we know through this free agency period. It will be interesting to see where the AFL end up with it… We’re not 100 per cent sure at the moment, we’ll let things play out. But I think it’s got to be close to a first rounder, if not an end of first-round selection.”


You’d have to think if they get that Brisbane would too. $50,000 a season shouldn’t drop the compo out of the first round. Which makes things easier for Dunkley.

Hopefully Amon & McStay get done Friday, with compo, and gives everyone some extra time.

It's impossible trying to predict the "secret formula" but comparatively, Scott Lycett left West Coast for a 3 million dollar contract over 5 years. West Coast received Pick 20 as compensation which seems to be a good precedent.

Yes, Gaz.

That’s the formula. How much media scan rigged compo get them in the non-Melbourne media. See Lycett/WA, Port and Motlop/Geelong, GCS, Port.

Dunkley first round compo buys the Brisbane Lions the winner of the list management period with Dunkley, Ashcroft, Fletcher, Pick 19 or 20 for McStay. So they should be fine for end of first round. Plenty of Courier Mail text space in this outcome.

Brisbane-bound midfielder Josh Dunkley says he is confident Chris Fagan will be his coach at the Lions next year as he denied a culture issue was at play in his second trade request in two years.

Dunkley will move to Brisbane if the Lions can broker a trade with the Western Bulldogs, but says after 18 goals in his outstanding 2022 season he is prepared to play mid-forward in an onball unit that includes Lachie Neale and Hugh McCluggage.

The Herald Sun revealed last week Dunkley would sign a six-year deal worth $750,000 per year, and Dunkley said he had genuinely been unsure about his decision until last Monday when he officially asked for a trade.

He told the Herald Sun at the TAB Spring Racing launch that while Fagan could not go into details about the accusations from First Nations players about conduct in his time at Hawthorn, Dunkley believes will would coach the Lions next year.

“It was a tough decision and something I had to think about a lot,” he said of his trade request.

“Weighing up my life here (in Melbourne) and in Adelaide with my partner Tippah and my life in Brisbane as well. So at the end of the day I feel like it’s a good lifestyle decision and they have an exciting list up there.

“Fages was really good. He is really disappointed and everyone knows that. It’s been on the public record that he has been struggling with it, but he’s a great person and we didn’t talk too much about it. He just wanted to reassure me that he feels like he hasn’t done too much wrong and with the situation that is going on, it’s hard to talk about.

“It definitely didn’t make me second guess. Everyone has backed him in and all the news reports have backed him in, and from what I have had to do with him in such little time he’s such a good human being and he’s really cared for me, and I am looking forward to that relationship and getting up and meeting him.”

Treloar’s great mate Adam Treloar’s partner Kim Ravaillion is in Brisbane playing Super Netball, and he is likely to join her once his AFL career is finished.

It means that while it will be difficult for Dunkley to leave his best friend, they will be reunited in Queensland in coming years, with the 25-year-old adamant the decision was based around lifestyle.

His partner Tippah plays Super Netball with Adelaide and while all contracts in the league are up at the end of next year, she loves the exciting young side she is playing with.

But in the long-term they will settle in Queensland, with 2016 premiership player Dunkley describing it as an offer too good to refuse.

Dunkley asked for a trade to Essendon at the end of 2020 amid the turbulent finish to the club’s hub experience in Queensland, but is adamant the Dogs culture is sound.

It is no secret the ultra-professional Dunkley led the charge on that front at the Dogs, but he said his relationship with coach Luke Beveridge was good.

“I think that was never an issue. It was more for me the on-field stuff and my role and the lifestyle. I feel like I can improve my footy again in the team up there. The culture stuff never came into my decision making.

“The culture is really good at the (Bulldogs) footy club. The boys are really close

“This year has been the best year out of all of them. It was a good step in the right direction after the grand final, so there is no bad blood.

“Bevo was really good to speak to on the phone. We have had a great relationship from day one and before I was drafted he spoke to me about how much I can be a role model and leader, so Bevo has been great for me and he’s like a father figure.

“I said to Bevo it was more of a lifestyle choice. He backed it in and said he completely understands the long-term deal was appealing.”

All players including Dunkley need to make an effort to remove themselves from the whole Hawthorn discussion. There is an ongoing investigation that is being compromised with clubs and players making statements.

It's ok to say that I'm not able to comment on the situation blab blah blah. Coming out and saying that I know so and so is a good bloke so I'm sure it's all going to be ok discredits and trivliases those people who have been quite traumatised by this.

“I think that was never an issue. It was more for me the on-field stuff and my role and the lifestyle. I feel like I can improve my footy again in the team up there. The culture stuff never came into my decision making.

“The culture is really good at the (Bulldogs) footy club. The boys are really close

“This year has been the best year out of all of them. It was a good step in the right direction after the grand final, so there is no bad blood.

“Bevo was really good to speak to on the phone. We have had a great relationship from day one and before I was drafted he spoke to me about how much I can be a role model and leader, so Bevo has been great for me and he’s like a father figure.

“I said to Bevo it was more of a lifestyle choice. He backed it in and said he completely understands the long-term deal was appealing.”

But Fagan has done something wrong. Just not too much.

Not greedy enough. Pick 7 (8 after Ashcroft) and swap of their future first- for their future second puts it on par with the Dylan Shiel trade. Being Pick 9 and the future swap.

Yeah not sure how they could bring in Dunkley on $750K and Bowes on $850K (even if they extended and flattened out the Bowes deal a bit), whilst only losing McStay of note.

Sorry there.

If they gave us Pick 7 this year, it will be in effect Pick 8 once they match the bid on Ashcroft. So in reality, we are getting Pick 8.

Then next year exchange their 1st, for our 2nd.

Results in: Pick 7 (8) & Future First rounder for Dunkley & Future Second.

Shiel trade: Pick 9 & Future First rounder for Shiel & Future Second.

Why:

Dunkley has a better year than Shiel
Similar career trajectory
Same age at trade time
Both monster contracts are 6 years, circa $750,000


That’s only if they somehow got Pick 7.

I'd also suggest they would prefer a our second rounder this year, rather than future. So we would get pick 7 plus future first, for Dunkley and this year's 2nd.

I could live with this year, but prefer combining Pick 37 & 65 (points) over Pick 29. I'm still not sure exactly how they have cash for Bowes to get Pick 7. Unless Dunkley is back ending his contract to the expected retirement of some bigger cash players like Daniher etc??? (And they're still chasing Gunston...)

I still think the more likely outcome is their Pick 15, future first and then swaps of our Picks 29 & 37 to Brisbane, for their Picks 33 & 44. Then dangle Pick 33 for Lobb.

So could we potentially go into the draft with 7, 11, 15 and 37 giving Brisbane back pick 29 so they can bank some points?
They'll also land something for McStay. Three picks inside of twenty and another in the early third round is something we should be able to work with.

If we got 7 and another first rounder it'd make more sense for it to be next years so they can use 15 for points this year (either straight for points or in a pick swap of some sort)

Would Collingwood be interested? They will be dishing out picks for Mitchell, Hill and Frampton. The appeal to them would have been getting him draft pick free. The only way I can see them being interested in trading for McStay would be if De Goey left. De Goey would get them decent compensation so they wouldn't want to lose that by acquiring McStay as a free agent in return.

DeGeoy could be the wild card. Even so, I think Collingwood do a trade as he’s restricted. He’s worth more than Pick 18. Then they can get McStay as an unrestricted FA.

But then Brisbane get compo, but have it reduced or removed with Gunston coming as a FA. So they trade for Gunston for a later to be unused pick or future late pick.

That’s before trading for Dunkley. So they’ve then got 15, 33, 44 & 69. They need end of First Round on McStay, no doubt. Then it’s 15 (or Pick 7 with a Bowes trade to them), 20, 33, 44 & 69.

So they do my trade on Dunkley. Two firsts to us, one pick going back with swaps (along the Shiel trade). But as Jazza points, make the second this year. Assuming no player is involved.

So to dogs Picks 7 or 15, 33 and future first.
To the lions Picks 29 & 37 and Dunkley

Lions have 20, 29, 37, 44 & 69 = 2,459 Draft Points. But they split these in draft points to get to around 2,700-2,900 which gets Ashcroft. To get Fletcher they need to move on a one ok valued player (not a star). Gardiner going (at second round compo) gets them a good pick with enough Draft Points (circa 360) to be used for Fletcher and salary room to pursue Bowes/Pick 7. Meaning they get Dunkley, Gunston, Ashcroft (Pick 1) and Fletcher (1st Rounder) and no deficit while getting top price for McStay & Gardiner. They win trade week.

Dogs left with 7 or 15, 33, 65 and future first. Pick 33 offered for Lobb. If accepted:

2022: Picks 7 or 15, 11, 65 and Jones & Lobb. Plus any picks for trades out such as Hunter etc. - Perhaps look at DFA’s for some mature players, see Jeff Anderson, Quinton Narkle etc.

2023: First Rounder x 2, Second, Third, Fourth


So I’m watching:

McStay compo. If it’s Pick 20 (Port 19 for Amon), then Gunston is a 100% trade, which it could be. Then watching Hawks take Pick 44, or play harder for their 33. Like the Essendon/Port trade on Monfries to keep compo in tact.

Then Power demanding two firsts, hopefully they get Pick 7. But our picks 29 (for their 33) & 37 are good for their draft points.

If it unfolds that our Picks 29 & 37 are crucial to Brisbane acquiring Gunston and avoiding deficits, then Power will no doubt not even consider anything less than 7/15 and Future First. Hopefully they are reliant on us to acquire our reigning B&F.

Bevo also alluded to the money factor so do you only believe part of what he said?

He did and mentioned our pay structure kind of too didn't he. Which is maybe why we don't lure in the super big names.

Dunkley is 25, it's going to be the biggest contract of his life, the world is his oyster.

He's done everything right by the Dogs, I honestly felt there was nothing but warmth for him in the room last night.

Sad he's leaving, and of course he's going to stick to script regarding why however I'm at the point and wishing him all the best and moving on.

Jokes aside he really appears to be a quality human.

Ultimately he's going.

Is he THAT great of a player? Wouldn't have thought so.

If we lost Bont or Naughton, well, I'll be about ready to give up the game. But Dunkley is hardly irreplaceable on OR off the field.

I'm looking forward to getting the trade done and moving forward.

Exactly, Griffen was very close to being or if not our best player when he left and Dunkley is further down the order than Griffen was.

It's time to put some faith in Sam Power and his team to work out a suitable trade for the club.

Lions have 20, 29, 37, 44 & 69 = 2,459 Draft Points. But they split these in draft points to get to around 2,700-2,900 which gets Ashcroft. To get Fletcher they need to move on a one ok valued player (not a star). Gardiner going (at second round compo) gets them a good pick with enough Draft Points (circa 360) to be used for Fletcher and salary room to pursue Bowes/Pick 7. Meaning they get Dunkley, Gunston, Ashcroft (Pick 1) and Fletcher (1st Rounder) and no deficit while getting top price for McStay & Gardiner. They win trade week.

At least that's what I hear every year on Channel 7 or reading Robbo or RoCo.

I think Essendon could very well land Bowes and have picks 4 and 7. They will then match points for the two Davey boys later on and come out genuine trade and draft winners. I really hope I'm wrong here.

So we should end up with the same picks(2 first rounders) that we wanted two seasons ago?

If that happens we should be chuffed. Got a couple extra years out of him, he played great footy in that time and his price is still the same.

I think we end up with two first rounders but in the teens, with late picks going back. Overall a lesser deal than what we asked for two years ago.

Which is fine IMO. We weren't getting 2 top 10 picks or whatever it is we wanted. That was the tax for trying to poach a young player with 2 years left on a contract. If we get pick 7 and a late first rounder (this or next year, they already finished top 4 this year so worst case is they win a premiership and it's 3 spots lower, big deal) with some pick swaps and a free 3rd rounder or something for them I think we've done pretty well for ourselves.

FYI, here’s the footywire comparison between Shiel in 2018 (6th in the B&F) and Dunkley 2022 (Winner B&F). Same age when trade requested.

Both requested trades for a six year deal at a new club, on a circa $750,000 salary.

Shiel was Pick 9 and swap of future first to GWS, future second to GWS.

This has to be rough expectation, Dunkley comfortably wins in comparison. Full comparison found here:

See my post just now.

More like 7 (if they get it), Future First. Send them Pick 37 this year. At a push, trade them Pick 29 for their Pick 33 if that’s going to Lobb in any event.

So: Picks 7 (8 after Ashcroft matched bid), 15, 65, Lobb, Jones (plus future first) - without any other trades

Jon Ralph assesses how Josh Dunkley could get to Brisbane Lions (https://www.heraldsun.com.au/sport/afl/afl-trade-news-north-brisbane-and-essendon-disadvantaged-in-trade-week-without-coaches/news-story/a3f67329c6ab31edf2d3d03c19ad9175)

The Western Bulldogs have made clear Josh Dunkley is worth well in excess of a single first-round pick as they prepare to secure Liam Jones on a three-year deal as early as Friday.

The Dogs are open to a range of scenarios in a trade to Dunkley to Brisbane that could include players and early picks from this year or the 2023 bumper draft.

Dogs coach Luke Beveridge said after Dunkley won the Dogs best-and-fairest on Wednesday night the Lions would have to “pony up” for the 25-year-old.

That victory has only strengthened the Dogs’ resolve to hold firm until the Lions hand over a bumper haul of picks and or players.

Dunkley’s $650,000 offer at the Dogs means they have cap space if a player emerged that suited their needs from the Lions or even in a three-way deal.

The Lions could find it impossible to secure picks for Dunkley in this year’s draft given they will match a bid at No. 1 for father-son Will Ashcroft and recruiters believe Jaspa Fletcher will easily slot into the first-round as the club’s second father-son recruit.

Beveridge said he was thrilled Dunkley had departed in the right manner by attending the best-and-fairest.

“I’m really grateful, I think we all are, that he’s been mature and respects his time at our football club that he’s here tonight to really see it through,” he said.

”The obvious thing is that the Lions are going to have to pony up, so (list boss) Sammy Power is going to go to work on that over the next week or two.”

Liam Jones will cap an extraordinary return to the club as an unrestricted free agent, with the Dogs’ three-year offer allowing them to spread money out over that deal and even back-end his salary.

The Dogs believe the former key forward who then made his name as an elite full back at Carlton still has three good seasons in him despite turning 32 next February.

They are not interested in Melbourne’s Adam Tomlinson despite speculation he might have had a medical at the club.

There is still a level of confidence that when the Dockers secure their trade targets including Luke Jackson they may be prepared to deal on Rory Lobb, who is determined to make his way to the Dogs despite being contracted for 2023.

"Dunkley’s $650,000 offer at the Dogs means they have cap space if a player emerged that suited their needs from the Lions or even in a three-way deal."

In the end do we think this is what it really came down to for Dunkley. Not even that money but how he perceived he was being treated? If he signed for $700K to $750K at Brisbane for six years. Let's take the higher number. Six years at $100K more is "only" $300K after tax over six years. Not really enough monetary incentive to be leaving IMHO.

It basically comes down to envy and where he believes he is ranked compared to Bont, Macrae, Treloar, Libba and also Bailey Smith. It is basically ego.

$300k isn't insignificant. I mean... it's actually quite a bit given footy careers aren't forever. Given the short time they play, and reality is most players get 1, maybe 2 contracts where they're "prime", it actually makes more sense for a footballer to move jobs because of money than it does for the general public. And I'm sure a lot of people move for $50k extra in the pocket each year.

I’d consider joining Bomberblitz for $300,000. I’d probably knock it back, you know being Essendon and all, but in times of falling stocks and property prices, the $300,000 invested for the long term will be even more comfort for life after footy.

I’d love to know if Dunkley told the club the Brisbane offer of extra cash, and if asked the club to match it.

It's a $300K net figure, which is substantial. The gross figure is $600K if you use a rudimentary 50% tax rate (which is overstating the tax, but it's close enough).

Let's say our offer is $650K p.a. gross, across six years that's $3.9M. Take out tax and that's $1.95M net.

Brisbane's offer is $750K p.a. gross, across six years that's $4.5M. Take out tax and that's $2.25M net.

The gross difference p.a. is $100K, net is $50K p.a., but as Mof states only if you're cursed by a shitty accountant.

Yes out of laziness to calculate PAYG amounts as I was on my phone. But the point is valid, when you are earning that much, how you invest and how you spend your money is a bigger factor than the extra amount he could earn. There is no way I’m leaving somewhere I even remotely like for that much extra per year, but understands everyone’s circumstances are very different.

Also, it’s very hard to dodge the system no matter how good your accountant is if you are earning PAYG income. He would also have other steams of revenue in sponsorship and appearances fees, which again dilutes the additional salary amount further.

I think for ten per cent I agree with you, but when you start talking 20% it gets a bit more tasty. Especially when your major earning years are likely going to be in the first 30% of your working life.

Bulldogs offer @ $650K is nett $374K

I haven't seen a lot of discussion on exactly how Brisbane are going to get the draft points they need while still offering us something suitable for Dunkley?

They do need points for Ashcroft and possibly Fletcher. Ashcroft alone could cost 2400 points if he is nominated as pick 1 by North and I think their total points for all picks to date are around that.

I suppose they'd be the leading suitor for Bowes, although given the nature of his exit the Suns might be inclined to take the best offer available, and not worry too much about his origins in QLD. Would certainly help our cause having pick 7 on the table.

Would we accept pick 7 alone? I think I'd take it with some steak knives. Depends on our recruiters' views on which pick gives us best value for nabbing our targets. Top ten picks generally net good players.

If picks 12 and 19 are going to secure Taranto then a future 1st for Dunks is well unders.

I won't be happy with this but I think we might get their pick 15 and a future 2nd from them.

Pick 7 would be a solid start if they can get that but I don't think they're that committed to it just yet.

There is plenty saying that next years draft is much stronger than this years. Wonder if Brissy will lean on this fact to drive a hard bargain.

I want a first this year and next. Confident Sammy P will be pushing for the same.

One of the problems of Bevo confirming that Brisbane need to "pony up" is that we now need to make sure they do.
That might be harder given the commitments to father son picks. #15 and a future 2 nd round pick is a miss.

I think that should be the next result and Power will stand his ground. I can see this one getting done late.
What they get for McStay and T.Berry might open up some possibilities.
If they got pick 7 that would give us some options.

I'm curious as to how they are going to do all of this.

My understanding is that they can only go into a deficit equal to the value of their 2023 picks, and the picks are valued as if they finish as premiers in 2023. As it stands the limit would be around 1700 points.

Brisbane 2022 draft points: 2040
2023 draft point deficit available: 1700

Yet if they were to trade us this year's first rounder and next year's, they'd be left with:

2022: 928
2023: ~715

And they need around 3200 points for Ashcroft and Fletcher. Pick 7 from Gold Coast in exchange for a second rounder would just about get them there, if they can also scrounge a few hundred points with pick swaps. Otherwise they'll have to let go of good players.

They have committed to the player and if he was contracted I think what you have said makes sense although Essendon held firm to a pick inside the top 10.

I'm not convinced that they won't just put in a reasonable offer and hold firm because there is no way Dunkley will do a medical with another club.

There are a number of options available to Brisbane to get the 3 deals done. Leaving us a bit short would obviously be their preference but we know Sam's good so lets back him. It's a big test though.

Brisbane have made the contract offer. They need to provide satisfactory compensation.

We do not need to facilitate an easy outcome.

If we are not satisfied Dunkley can accept our offer or go the PSD.

Going to North or West Coast is the risk for Dunkley but he needs Brisbane to provide the trade capital to prevent that.

We can ask for Rayner or Zac Bailey if they can't provide adequate draft picks.

Trade out their 2023 first, let the deficit apply to their picks after that.
Dunkley and their two first rounders this year is an incredible haul.

When you compare the stats of Dunkley and Taranto, plus reports that the out of contract Taranto will be traded for picks 12 and 19, it is pretty clear that is the minimum we should be getting for our reigning best and fairest.

I see pick 15 this year and a future 1st for Dunkley and some late picks as the most likely scenario. If we can manage to get 7 instead of 15 then I think we have to give up more in the late picks.

I have full confidence that Power won't be pushed into accepting one future 1st.

Dunks stacks up well against Taranto. Different types of mids but both
right up there in the top tier. Taranto kicks the ball longer and/or runs with it more. But Dunks has the inside game and the forward role option.

So … what if Brisbane offer $450K of the Jack Bowes salary (meaning we pay $400K). We get Bowes, pick 7, and Brisbane sweeten the deal with 2023 round one pick. Gold Coast get their salary dump, we get two first rounders, Brisbane get Dunkley. Would that work?

And the Club should be willing to not trade if we are not sufficiently compensated. If that means he goes in the draft and ends up at Norf versus staying put with us that is his choice but the club can't be taken advantage of because another club says they don't have the capital.

Also, great examples of other trades that have transpired over the years but there are the ones as well where the Club knows they are being shafted but accepts it because they will get nothing back in return. Case in point Swans losing Dawson to the Crows last year. We are lucky as Bris finished higher up the ladder but if "lifestyle" is the reason for Bris then maybe GC could come in and swoop on Dunks if in the draft (should they have sorted out their current Salary cap mess).

If Brisbane don't deal in good faith with an adequate trade, Dunkley can go to the PSD and whoever takes him there.

For us a move to Brisbane needs to enable us to improve or we just make a prime rival stronger at our expense.

Some woeful suggestions (I’m sleep deprived):

Here’s an apparently true Napoleon quote from one of his love letters to Josephine:
“You are wicked and naughty, very naughty” (smacks of Dick Emery)

And for Smiths fans “Frankly Mr Dunkley (the position we’re in)”

And Clark Gable morphing into Tom Cruise “Frankly my Dunkley, we don’t give a damn (just show us the round 1 picks)”

Dunkley will surely not want to play for North, WC or Bummers. If no deal can be struck with Lions and seeing as Dunkley has publicly stated he has enjoyed his time at our club and will miss his team mates then he plays another year with us taking him to FA and a reasonably high round 1 pick for us. Lions know this. I reckon Powers death stare will make them blink and go into 2023 defici so we end up with two round 1 picks.

The problem with throwing players into the mix late is there are so many factors that make it unlikely. Happy contracted players probably don't want to move interstate for a start.

Yep I think the best result for us if including Robertson would be something like:
Dogs get: 1st 2022, 1st 2023, Robertson
Lions get: Dunkley, pick 30, pick 67

That values Dunkley as pick 9 with Robertson as steak knives, and I'm not sure Brisbane will go for it.

That looks ok. Thinking on it (player involved), then I think from their perspective it has to be a position they have depth in (getting Dunkley & Ashcroft), so maybe a mid. And a player whose best value is now, and who is a risk of future trade for less than their current value. Irrespective of gun, good player, young player status.

So if that’s their thinking. Which mid type fits our potential need?

If Taranto can command 12 + 19 (as has been reported), I would settle for any of the following rather than lose Dunkley to PSD.

Rayner + pick 15.

or

Robertson + pick 7 (if Brions get it)

or

Rayner + Robertson.

[Edit, since prising picks out of the Brions will be difficult, I would be quite happy with Rayner + Robertson. Maybe we could get some sort of steak knives for saving them the picks?]

Looking at Robertson in the finals, I think he is about to go up several notches next year. Could be good investment.
