Will he be at the Brownlow and if so, which table?

I'm looking forward to the B & F on October 2. I have pre-drinks with the players. If Baz is there I'm making sure I have a chat.

He will Bail-ey

He should be nowhere near the club, players or any one associated with the Westernbulldogs - **** him

Dunks was there - and it felt like we pissed in his pocket.

There was a lot of love from Bevo.

I guess the fact he was going to win was something his ego couldn't turn down.

Considering I've seen Bailey Bail-ing early on the pre-drinks before I expect that he will not turn up at all.

Probably has a red bull camp to go to.

If there's one thing Dunks can't be criticized for, it's his commitment to the club prior to his trade. At the events I've attended with Dogs players, I definitely noticed Dunks, Keath and Daniel as being the best with fan engagement (especially with how much time they would spend chatting to random fans). This was even at a time when it was all but confirmed he was leaving.

Compare that to Baz and... I can't respect him at all

The two best from my experience were Tim Obrien and Billy Gowers.

Bont is swamped so hard to tell! But he's also amazing.

Definitely got that vibe from Gowers too! Man of the people

Some people I have talked to have given praise to Gardner, Lobb and JOD for the way they interact with the members.

Never had the chance to speak with Lobb or JOD. The one time I met Gardner, he was in his first year so still fairly uncomfortable with the fan engagement side of things I think. Still a nice bloke and friendly enough though.

One particular open training I went to, the ones I didn't see spend any longer than the bare minimum were Smith, JUH and a handful of the younger guys.

Darcy was a good one too actually - met him in his first year and he already seemed comfortable with the fan engagement stuff

If we assume Geelong's pick 15 is one picks we get for Bailey Smith what else should we holding firm for or is that about all we can expect? Should we demand a F2 pick

We should be demanding at least pick 15 and F1. Probably have to settle for 15 and something like their second rounder this year or next. We should not settle for just pick 15 which will end up closer to 20.

Two firsts or nothing.

Their 15 will be around 20 (Battle, Ashcroft, Lombard, Kako, Camporeale et al).

So first and F1 is actually pick 20+ and F1. That’s less than Dunkley as their that deal had done later swaps and add ons.

How about 15+F1+a player on the fringe we like? Ted Clohesy might be one from the sounds of it. Sounds similar to West in osme aspects but a bit pacier. Or maybe more like Garcia.

Pick 15 will end up higher - so they're going to have to PONY UP!

Future first as well.

It's for all intents and purposes a second round pick they have this year. It's nowhere near good enough. You can say it's a first but that's rubbish as a lot of the top tier talent is already allocated.
