maybe to start preseason with purpose or maybe to stop people talking about who we are going to sign for next year.

In other news the 2020 bulldogs members pack comes with Deepheat lube (no one else would buy it so they got it cheap but they think it’ll do a job.... just like 95% of our top 30 squad) & a 15 inch cactus strap on for rival supporters to have their way with your arsehole on a weekly basis

Bit surprised to see them name Wakeman in the hookers instead of halfs
We will lose Wakeham if Pays plan is to make him a hooker

Should be a top 28, we should have learned our lesson. Disappointing to see Wakeham at hooker and as mentioned above Kalache not there ?

Maybe we are making a play for another half and leaving options open. Not that I think that would matter in the lineup??

Does anyone know the reason behind the way the Dogs are using the Development Contract option. This year they had players who were never going to play first grade eg Jared Anderson on those contracts. Most (not all) of those listed for next year are not among the"best" players coming through SGBall /Flegg.
My only guess is that these players have contracts from the previous regime and by putting them on Dev Contracts its makes some sort of difference to the cap. Any one able to clarify.

Probably so they can asshole them if someone better comes along after June 30

So just the one spot left ...for SBW.

I don't get the rush to declare our Top 30. They locked us in too early last year as well.

There are at least 2-4 players who should have been found lucrative contracts in England...that's what Hill should have been doing over there ;)
Haha.. I was about to say the exact same thing.. I wondered if someone beat me too it.. lovely work wendog :hearteyes:

The club made their position pretty clear about 2020 and many of us have repeated that constantly so I don’t know why people are getting upset.
Obviously that list will change a bit though. It just depends who we can move on and who we can pick up with the limited money we have. Don’t forget why we are in this position

The only sense I could make of this is they are planning for the mass cleanout for 2021, and in order to prevent losing Tass and Arevillo they probably were forced to name them in the squad
But if we loose Kalache it would be a big mistake !!!
The question is...Who will be number 30 ???

I'll be honest - I do not see much relevance to this.

You have to name your top 29, but it does not need to stay that way till June 30. We had a heap of changes leading into the midway point of the season, and I will be expecting probably the biggest offseason in terms of player transfers.

So many clubs in turmoil wanting to let go of "overpriced" players, or deadwood.

Gold Coast, The Groncos, St Merge to name a few.

Thats why im surprised about him being named in the top 30.
In and out of the Jersey flegg team all year
We are very light in the centres maybe thats why he was thrown in.
