How do we get 2 Top 10 Picks?

Firstly, I like how everyone thinks outside the square, you all should be applauded for your ideas.

Call the afl and tell them that we played 19 on the field in the Carlton game last year. We will have the four points taken from us and record this as a loss.

:lol: Nice effort. What would Vlad think?? :lol:

Melbourne sends Nathan Jones and pick 17 to Essendon

Essendon sends Pick 5 to Melbourne

Melbourne selects Steele Sidebottom

Impressive display by Sidebottom on Friday, but how good were the defenders? Essendon want Hurley anyway.

How about a three way deal involving Melbourne, Carlton and Fremantle.

Melbourne trade Wonamerri to Fremantle and picks 17 & 19 to Carlton

Fremantle trade Warnock to Carlton

Carlton trade pick 6 and 56 to Melbourne.

Melbourne get two top 10 picks, Carlton get Warncok and two picks in the top twenty and Fremantle get a small forward to step in to replace the retired Jeff Farmer?

And with picks

1. Watts

6. Sidebottom

35. Salter

51. Browne

56. Klause

Here Melbourne lose two top 20 picks....we don't effectively get two top 10 picks, we get one top 10 pick out of this deal. Carlton would be very happy I'd assume with Warnock, 17 and 19 for pick 6!!! Freo get a rookie. This doesn't add up for any party. You a Carlton supporter? <_<

So we give up Wona, 17 & 19 for pick 6 & 56. Epic fail

I don't disagree, I just reckon it's one of the only ways I can see Melbourne getting a 2nd pick in the top 10. I can't see any other sides being interested that much in to many other of our players.

woenamirri needs to be kept. if he can shed some weight, he will be more of a gun next yr- bailey will develop him well!

I'm not sure it's even possible to trade a rookie who's being uplifted to the senior list.

With the state of Melbourne's list, I think the only reasonable possibility of getting a top 10 pick is Green or Davey plus pick 19. Not worth it.

Would much rather look at getting more in the top 25 than shifting picks from top 20 to (late) top 10.

Trade Bell and pick 35 for Crows pick 28

Trade Green and pick 28 for top 10 pick.

Dont know the crows list well enough to know if they would do this.

I think we would over pay, but thats how we would get a first round pick, or something close to this.

Bell and Pick 35 to Adelaide for Brent Reilly

Pick 19 to Brisbane for Mitch Clarke

Frawley and Sylvia to StKilda for Pick 13 and 4th round pick

Keep 1, 17 and 51.

Green to play forward in 2009.

Will any of these work?

Without intending to spark the 'Green / Bruce; Trade / Keep' debate...

IF we put the following two packages out there in trade week; could any club with a top ten pick be interested?

Brad Green + pick 17

Cameron Bruce + pick 19

No. I dont think so! Would need to offer a younger player and pick.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    It’s game day and the Demons return to Melbourne to play the Eagles at the MCG for the first time in over a decade. A win keeps the Dees finals hopes alive whereas a loss will almost certainly slam the finals window shut.

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    The Demons once again went goalless in the last quarter and were run down by the Lions at the Gabba in the final minutes of the match ultimately losing the game by 5 points as their percentage dips below 100 for the first time since 2020.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?
