DOGS EYE DOCKER<\/p>\n

The Western Bulldogs are keeping an eye on out of contract Docker Neil Erasmus as he weighs up his future. <\/p>\n

AFL Media\u2019s Josh Gabelich reported that the Dogs are interested in acquiring Erasmus\u2019 services<\/a> as they look to replenish their midfield stocks. <\/p>\n

Erasmus has struggled to break into Justin Longmuir\u2019s midfield group since arriving at the club as pick 10 in the 2021 draft.<\/p>\n

According to Gabelich, the Dockers are keen to retain Erasmus, but he\u2019s weighing up his options.<\/p>\n

The young midfielder has played 33 games at Fremantle, including 10 this year. <\/p>\n

Arch rivals West Coast are also in the market for more midfield depth to support Harley Reid and co, and are looking at a range of out of favour on-ballers across the country to boost their own stocks.<\/p>\n

SUNS MID \u2018KEEN\u2019 ON MOVE<\/p>\n

Gold Coast Suns midfielder Alex Davies is reportedly \u201ckeen\u201d to move clubs at the end of the year<\/a>, according to AFL Media\u2019s Cal Twomey.<\/p>\n

Davies had strong levels of interest around the competition last year, but penned an extension at the Suns hoping to break into Damien Hardwick\u2019s senior side more permanently. <\/p>\n

The 23-year-old is yet to feature at AFL level this year and unless there\u2019s an injury to one of Gold Coast\u2019s star on-ballers, it\u2019s hard to see a world where he starts featuring regularly under Hardwick. <\/p>\n

The Suns Academy product has been in solid form at VFL level however, where he has averaged 23.2 disposals, 6.5 clearances and 5.4 tackles a game.<\/p>\n

Goodwin admits ‘cheeky text’ to Daniher | 01:21<\/p>\n

\u201cHe signed on at the Suns last year until the end of 2026, but he is looking for opportunities elsewhere,\u201d Twomey said.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think he\u2019ll be keen for a move this trade period. He hasn\u2019t broken into the Suns midfield this year at all, so he is a name to watch again.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think he\u2019ll be open to changing clubs.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Western Bulldogs are eyeing off a top 10 pick to boost their midfield stocks.
