Bulldogs Chasing Lonie

[johnearljames]

Not a bad depth player but is he realistically in our next finals winning side? I would say no.

Bulldogs can have him I reckon.

We need to recruit another small forward at Butlers calibre. Plus get Gresham to play 50/50 forward/mid also.

The ol’ Bigfooty rumour

The ol’ Bigfooty rumour

Nah Preso. On Fox Footy website.

[Yorkeys]

Diligent manager at work?

[Teflon]

What’s might we glean?
Package up Kent if even do 2 for 1

[PADDLEPOP1001]

No one in their right mind takes Kent how he is still getting a game is anyone’s guess,one sided in this day & age & very little pressure/hardness!

Lonie for a 3rd rounder .

Lonie and Kent for a 4th rounder !

[Wayne42]

If the Bulldogs forward line had both Bruce and Lonie in it their supporters would be going ape droppings after the first couple of rounds.

2 blokes who mostly go where the ball aint.

If we can get a 3rd round pick I would considerate it . IMO he's not a bad player but not a good player just doesn't do enough consistently

[SaintPav]

Sure.

Straight swap for Caleb Daniel.

[Bowey Boy]

Frustrating cos he could be anything, but isn't.

[skeptic]

Sure.

Straight swap for Caleb Daniel.

Bit of irony in such a swap.

Caleb was the player I wanted with that pick

Agree.

Move Billings there as well or to Half Back.

Sexton from GC is what we need and Williams or Couch and Caldwell.

We didn't have the guts to select him.

I doubt the Bulldogs will trade him.

They probably want Lonie for next to nothing as well.

While we may not have a choice, I think we need to be careful who we give away at the end of the year. I rate Lonie ahead of Kent and Hind.

[bigred]

Dogs took Daniel before we had a chance I think.

There are a couple of sides that would be looking long and hard at Lonie.

That's because he has talent and skill.

When he's flying he's better than Kent and Hind.

We should keep him.

I'd probably be getting rid of Kent first but he has another year on his contract and they seem to love him when he's available.

Yeah I agree has footy smarts that in a good team would be an asset but too inconsistent for mine

[Teflon]

Again IF they can do a deal a pick that meets our requirements we should do it
He ain’t Milne
He goes awol often
If he has some type currency do it

[desertsaint]

with gresh in the midfield we've got just two decent small forwards, and lonie is one of them.

In our next finals winning side - could only be three weeks away mate.

Hugh Goddard at 21
Daniel McKenzie at 22
Jack Lonie went at pick 41
Caleb Daniel went at 46

Butler Gresham rest forward
I’ve never liked small specialist forwards I’d rather rest a mid there who can jag a goal tbh

Lordy Lordy somebody else sees the light

Have been preaching this all year and we played 4 of them last night

Nope we took Lonie at 41, they took Daniel at 46. I recall there was a big push on this forum for us to pick Daniel. Those who advocated for him have been proven correct. ( I was not amongst them - I have no idea re the under 18s ! )

The most natural small forwards in the club are Gresham and Billings . We have tried to make them into midfielders . For next season I reckon we would be better off playing them forward . Time for Clark to go into the middle, and hopefully ( hopefully ) Hannebery can stand up as well. Sinclair starting to look like a midfielder too.

I reckon we draft another midfielder , and go with a forward line of

Billings Membrey Gresham
Battle King Butler

I’m not sure Billings gets it enough or offers that manic forward pressure you need tbh
