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.

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.

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.

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.
