Averillo to test open market before extending.

[speedy2460]

Averillo will suss out the marketplace to try and further his career before re-signing with Dogs..

DO IT Jake ..and I don't think we should be rushing to re- sign him anyway..is unproven yet at Fullback etc.

 

[sifter6]

Hopefully the North Sydney Bears will offer him what he is worth and he leaves. I am sure they can afford $100 per win and a free pie.

 

[B-Train]

I can't imagine any bidding wars for Averillo. Hopefully he stays loyal to the club that's given him the opportunity and persevered with him in FG for the last few years. If not, it's no great loss and you wish him well..

He's a good athlete but he has a lot of improving to do as a footballer and in terms of awareness. Whether he reaches his potential with us, another club or at all remains to be seen.

 

[CQDog]

He ain’t leaving.

 

[T-Rocket]

Seeing if he can get a lucrative tigers contract?

 

[Robbothedestroyer]

Jury still out on avo. His speed and athletic ability suited to a team that has a dominant forward pack and halves that create space.

Also a decent coach to teach him structures and positioning in attack and defence wouldn’t go astray. Was not suited to Baz ball. Would probably be a star at the storm lol.

Obvious sign he is uncomfortable and uncertain at the bulldogs.
It's no secrete we are chasing a better fullback option.
I do rate the guy, he just isn't at the level we desperately need right now
He is excellent back up utility value though.
But I think he wants to cement a starting spot.

He could easily be the next Ben Barba, or he could just as easily be the next Moses Mbye

Tomato or BBQ ?

 

[Alan79]

Still think his biggest issue is that he gets timid after a hard knock. But I'd hope he doesn't read the forum. I'd fuck off asap if I read some of the shit posts about him here. He's not a bad player, just not the saviour that plenty were hoping he'd be based on junior football.

120 game legend for Mounties

The thing about testing the open market is you leave yourself open to not receiving an offer from us either. Good luck to him but he needs a big season at fullback if he wants to continue with us

 

[Kung fu man]

JAC straight to fullback, bye Averagello

 

[D- voice]

I believe that Gus is doing the right thing, he would have told him to test the market then come back to us.
Contrary to what some people think, I believe that there is a place for him with us,
at the right price

 

[2ndphase]

It would just be his manager to see what he's worth.
You would be stupid not to!

 

[Roger the alien]

The dogs should be in no rush to Re-sign him based on what we saw last year. I personally don't think he's in our future plans anyway

If it's money he wants...Mbye got a big contract elsewhere...

 

[Natboy]

Maybe he feels insecure about his position in first grade with us

He needs a big off season but he's still my pick for fullback.
