    I have been thinking about Curnow a lot. I'm not sure he is good enough to pay the cost Carlton expect. I am thinking it would be worth giving Ugle-Hagan a lifeline. Now I don't know how bad his off field life and attitude is so I am taking it on face value what I read in the media.

    We would get him for bugger all - probably a 4th round pick or something. Just Bulldogs have to wear most of the contract. If we drafted him I would try to put some training/attendance clause in any contract. If he is not up to expectations by round 1 I would pay him out anything owed and let him go. If he is not willing to meet standards by then I would not want him affecting other players and the club reputation.

    I think as others have said that a true KPD would be just as important as Curnow to our structure. The other issue is when do we find out about a 5 man interchange? It needs to be decided soon after the GF because Ladhams' value will go up a lot to us and other clubs if that is introduced.
    Buller is the biggest priority but I agree I'd take a chance on JUH over what Curnow would cost

      I don't think Buller is a priority he's a nice fall back position if nothing eventuates, he's just another B grader we can add to our collection - don't get me wrong I am not against signing him for another year, just don't think he's a priority

        Alot of that is based on cost

        Buller is a free kick and his trajectory from Game 1 to Game 10 is very good.

        Curnow rips the team apart, with a big gamble and we still end up without a key defender

        JUH, I hope Sydney have been telling him to play up to bring his cost down. Sign on a massive performance based role.

        I wonder if we went after Naughton with a view to make one of them available

          Right now I guess everything is on the table, I don’t have much faith in our recruiters and the recruiting policy. I can’t tell you what the plan is and to be honest I wonder if they even know

            Yeah I agree, I don't think it's as well oiled as what people think.

            Tough being out of Vic but I always feel we get fleeced at the Trade table
