Damage control after Smith's antics on the weekend. Connors is a pro, but Smith must be testing his patience.

At a guess it's not to further inflame what's already a contentious bin fire behind the scenes.

Usually there would be a tacit agreement in place bw the clubs before nomination.
Looks like we can't even get the initial bit happening which screams we are very far apart.

Re: Welcome to the Bulldogs: Bailey Smith
I wonder if Connors' commission doubles every time Baz has to publicly feed his ego.

Re: Welcome to the Bulldogs: Bailey Smith
Normally when a player nominates a trade they head off somewhere quiet and wait till its done.
Smith this week alone seems to have done tv segments, grand final week appearances, "Barry" drink promotions including weird soccer kit give-aways and a stint behind the bar trying to flog the stuff, not to mention a seemingly uptick and needy thirst trap instagram posts.
I appreciate he has had some mental health challenges, but man he makes it hard for himself and must be infuriating to manage.
I should leave it alone but you're not right

Our Board cannot wait to see the back of Bailey. He?s been too
much work. So we’ve also very much outgrown him. The Club won?t be looking to support Bailey?s interests, just our own at this point.

We need employees who put football first. Simple as that.
But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

I had a suspicion he was a massive wanker, but he's transcending levels I didn't think possible.

Re: Welcome to the Bulldogs: Bailey Smith
He appears to be a shallow and illogical thinker. Low IQ, EQ and self absorbed, possibly - correction - almost definitely- a narcissist.
I hope he receives proper mental support and sage advice he needs to have a fulfilled career and life. I’m fearing it could end up like Cousins etc.
I do not wish him ill and still (unbelievably) have a soft spot for him. Mainly I want the best for our club. My second biggest fear is we are not adequately compensated and cycle of small club being bent over & a powerhouse club becomes stronger continues. My greatest fear is we hold firm (which I think is fine in theory & a big part of me says we should if Cats are unfair in negotiations) and a powerhouse club picks him in PSD or ND, with currently struggling teams too scared of his mental fragility & the circus antics that he has created.
One thing is certain, when we play against him it will be close to a sellout and the sparks will fly as our players likely feel as gutted, upset and perplexed as we do by his shenanigans.

I'm reasonably certain he is a narcissist.

We did try and keep him and made an offer so I am not sure he is as bad as people are making out.
He isn’t another Stringer where we shipped him around and wouldn’t have him back.

It's more fun to make fun of him saying dumb stuff than to try and diagnose him

I guess this is what Warrick Capper would have been if he came from privilege and took himself seriously.

Would love to hear more.
Sounds promising…
Have you heard Butters wants to come to the Dogs?
