and key target Dan McStay to reshape their forward line and this year look to go further with the 25-year-old Docker wanting a move to Victoria.The nuggety forward, who has kicked 63 goals in the last two seasons, was to be out of contract at year’s end, but activated a trigger mid-year tying him to the club until the end of 2024.
So, North’s Ben McKay has arrived on a hefty six-year deal, Jade Gresham will very likely follow as another free agent signing from St Kilda, and Todd Goldstein, 35, is reuniting with Brad Scott – who was McKay’s first AFL coach – to provide quality back-up over the short term in Essendon’s two-ruck set-up.
Having spoken to the Bombers, they’re adamant they will not part with pick No.9 in the draft, for either Gresham or Duursma, and that if the Saints match the Gresham free agency offer – as is their right – then he won’t be an Essendon player.G’day everyone and welcome to our AFL trade period live blog for day four of the league’s annual player movement window.
