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.

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.

    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

    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.

    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?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last
