i agree Yze magic!! wow..didn't think i'd say that

Varcoe, Corey- yes corey- overrated player who gets no attention due to selwood, ablett and bartel being superior- still alright but green better, Lonergan, Harry Taylor, Blake, Enright, Josh Hunt, James Kelly, and maybe Max Rooke

Corey? you serious?? Corey is Nigel Lappin Mk II

Yes- you heard me give my explanation. green could rack up 28+ possessions running free like corey dos when other teams focus on ablett bartel and selwood- teams only have 1 maybe 2 max taggers, and even then ling takes one of their better players

Cannot believe Greeny would walk out on us! He has plenty of footy left in him, and I would have thought the red and blue was the place for him.

Has been one of my Favourite MFC of recent times, and I wish him the best if he goes. That said, if i meet him in a bar, drinks will not be on me. That honor is reserved for those who bleed red and blue!

See ya greeny, thanks for the good times........I hope your replacement is as good if not slightly better.

I think the trading of Green would be a win/win for him and the MFC!

MFC is rebuilding and want draft picks for this so important draft. Green will get us a reasonable pick and give us that much more space in the salary cap.

Green is playing good football and could help a team in the window of contending for a premiership. Why at his age would'nt he want that? He could get a similiar contract we have offered and have that chance of a premiership before his career is out.

Thanks Greeny and best wishes! Would like to see you go to Port! Obviousley they think there Premiership window is still open.

But I predict a big play by Collingwood by the end of the week!

Definitely! I want him packaged in a deal to Port for Pick 4! They have interest in him! I believe we would have to partner him with either a Davey, Rivers or Bate though.

I would be happy with any of those though preferably in that order mentioned! We have to be realistic if we want Pick 4.

I think Port would go for it!

You can all call me crazy! :wacko: Because I know i am going to cop it! :lol:

Nathan Brown Thought the same thing when he walked to the Tigers Didn't he. Think Carefully Brad Green. Things can turn around quickly. Think very Carefully about your future....

Demons football manager Chris Connolly said Green met with coach Dean Bailey yesterday and the club believed he was close to agreeing to terms.

Hawthorn and Sydney inquired about Green today, but were told there was little chance of him leaving.

Green's manager said last night that nothing had changed, and they were still assessing their options - after Green had met with Bailey.

HERE IT IS

Cos he's still trying to see which clubs want him enough to satisfy our demands, so that he can make a decision.. sydney & hawthorn, etc. may be interested, but it might be cos they think they can get him at a cut price

also, they've gotta be willing to pay what he wants.

I'm tipping a decision by tomorrow.

I'm tipping a three-way deal here. More than likely I will be wrong :o:lol: . But I will go out on a limb and take a 'speculative' stab at it: -

O'Keefe to Hawthorn

Green to Sydney and Melbourne's third round pick (35)

Hawks first round draft pick (16) to Melbourne, and second round pick (34?) to Sydney

I'll await the critics..... ;)

Feel free to comment, is it a win-win-win?

edit: In the above deal Sydney may appear short changed, in getting Green and two 3rd round picks. So it might need the Hawks to trade Tim Boyle beforehand. ie A 2nd round pick for Boyle, on forward this pick to Sydney along with Melb's 3rd round pick and Green.

edit, edit: Forget it, Roos has stated he wants a 1st round pick.

Hawthorn get:

O'Keefe and Melbourne third round pick

Hawthorn lose:

First round pick and Boyle

Sydney get:

Green, Boyle and Wheatley

Sydney lose:

OKeefe and Second round pick

Melbourne get:

Hawthorn's first rounder and Sydney's second round pick

Melbourne lose:

Green, Wheatley and Third round pick

Thoughts?

Ok. For starters there is no chance in hell Green will get us a premiership player and one accoring to Neil Balme was a certainty to play this years grand final. Green wouldn't even fetch us Stokes himself.

Ahah.

Thoughts?

At least in that proposed trade, one side isn't getting blatantly ripped off.

That automatically puts it in the top 10 trade proposals I've ever read on here.

    RAIN CHECK by Whispering Jack

    The Frankston Dolphins broke a run of six straight losses against their neighbours, the Casey Demons and kept their hopes for a long-awaited return to the VFL finals alive with a 27 point victory over at Kinetic Stadium. Casey was welcomed to the Peninsula by grey skies, heavy rain and angry seas with threatening white-capped waves whipped up by gale force winds. After a slow start in the opening term when they failed to take advantage of the breeze, it appeared that the Demons had decided

    THE PEOPLE SPEAK by The Demonland Crew

    DEMONLAND - Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland 2024 Grand Final Podcast ... before we took that last phone call from a Demonlander, we were discussing how the club overcame it’s midseason slump, the season-ending injury to Christian Petracca and the loss for a brief period of skipper Max Gawn due to a  crack to the base of his right fibula, to slowly surge up the ladder turning our detractors into believers and how it ended the year triumphant in the finals with our capta

    EARLY BIRDS by KC from Casey

    Wet, slippery conditions and threatening rainfalls greeted the VFL Bombers at the end of their long journey southeast of the big city on Sunday. The threatening weather combined with the fact that neither side had realistic prospects of advancing to action in September, meant that spectators gathered at a cold Casey Fields weren’t expecting a classic exhibition of football. Nor did they get one. Instead they were presented with a dour struggle that never reached great heights. It was a

    HEAVENS ABOVE by Molly Melbourne

    Who said the football gods and scoreboard attendants at the MCG don’t have a sense of humour? The gods spent a whole week teasing Demon and Bomber fans alike about Saturday night’s game. About how the entire match would be dominated by the hulking, brooding figures of 205cm Sam Draper and his 2IC Peter Wright lapping it up in the absence of Melbourne skipper and the club's No.1, No 2, No 3 and No 4 ruckman Max Gawn in the wake of that ankle injury. They painted pictures of Simon Goodwin ne
