Wheatley a Swan (rumour only)

Recommended Posts

if he goes to the swans, and plays like he did this year, he'll be ok for them. setting up play off half back with tadgh kennelly and goodes. but i'd rather a draft pick than have him play 2 okay years of footy then retire/delisted

Where would he fit into a side that contains Kennelly, Malceksi and Mattner though? Especially considering all 3 of those are well ahead of him as players

Sounds like a good deal to me. Wheatley is a good honest player, but not a great one. He only looked good this year as the team was so Bad. Eight years is long enough.

I wish him well if he leaves.

The day's meetings are over and if this was true it would have filtered back to the legitimate media. It's starting to smell like a hoax.

This was posted on Big Footy, so treat it with a grain of salt, but it's been suggested that Paul Wheatley was traded to the Swans for a 2nd round pick. Deal has been done in principle, but both clubs are waiting to attempt to upgrade the pick if possible through the O'Keefe deal.

I'd like to move half our older players on for draft picks this year please. :)

Good news if true.

yeah miller is ok- thought he just may attract interest from team that needs a lead up forward- could get 3rd round pick. and why would we keep jamar if we're chasing warnock, seaby and reportedly interested in McIntosh. we have PJ and Spencer developing adn meesen clogging the list. get rid of jamar

Your right, but we need him, as a forward, & he's a real good leader, & a great example for the kids, courage, hard attitude 'n' all.

Their saying on 'onology', that the wheatley rumour is confirmed by Sydney fc, & SEN.

obviously SEN throws up a few 'fans' who want these deals to happen rather than rumours, but if sydney fc are on the record for being interested/we've approached them

I would accept that deal! Wheatley for Pick 30. Would wish him well if true! Has grown up as a Demon since a tacker!

Would like to see CJ stay put. Green definitely has to go! Bell, Miller and sorry too say A. Davey if he can be packeged for Pick 4. Green and Davey for Pick 4.

We only can trade 5 players! So lets do it wisley and trade for the maximum.

We could use that pick 30 on Art Vanderlay if he lasts until then.

Wheatley for Vanderlay would be a good deal.

That was the deal forecast in the Pennski file. I am going off to get a black and white cookie and a cup of soup.

    BLOODY BLUES by Meggs

    The conclusion to Narrm’s home and away season was the inevitable let down by the bloody Blues  who meekly capitulated to the Bombers.   The 2024 season fixture handicapped the Demons chances from the get-go with Port Adelaide, Brisbane and Essendon advantaged with enough gimme games to ensure a tough road to the finals, especially after a slew of early season injuries to star players cost wins and percentage.     As we strode confidently through the gates of Prin

    Melbourne’s most important player who dominated the first half of the season until his untimely injury in the Kings Birthday clash put an end to his season. At the time, he was on his way to many personal honours and the club in strong finals contention. When the season did end for Melbourne and Petracca was slowly recovering, he was engulfed in controversy about a possible move of clubs amid claims about his treatment by the club in the immediate aftermath of his injury.

    Strong marking youngster who plays forward and relief ruck, continued to make significant strides forward in his career path. The Demons have high hopes for van Rooyen as he stakes his claim to become an elite attacking forward.

    LIVE AND LET DIE by Meggs

    The Demons’ impressive late season charge to finals will most likely come unstuck this Saturday evening when the Bombers blow up the also-ran Blues in the Ikon Park double-header.   To mangle McCartney, what does it matter to ya? To have any chance to play next week Narrm has got a job to do and needs to do it well.  We’ve got to give the Pie sheilas hell, say live and let die! It’s Indigenous Round for this game and the chance to celebrate and engage with Aboriginal and Torres

    Had to shoulder more responsibility as the club’s injury concerns deepened but needs to step up more as he closes in on 100 games. Date of Birth: 31 May 2000 Height: 186cm Games MFC 2024: 21 Career Total: 95 Goals MFC 2024: 6 Career Total: 34 Games CDFC: 1 Goals CDFL: 0

    Date of Birth: 12 November 1999 Height: 197cm Games MFC 2024: 20 Career Total: 82 Goals MFC 2024: 9 Career Total: 28 Brownlow Medal Votes 3 Failed to fulfill the promise of his breakout six goal effort against the Tigers in 2023 and was generally disappointing as a key forward. It remains to be seen whether Simon Goodwin will persevere with him in attack or return him to the backline where he was an important cog in the club’s 2021 premiership success.

    After a bright start to the season, playing mostly in defence, Howes seemed to lose his way in midseason but fought back with some good performances at Casey and finished the year back at AFL level. One to watch in 2024. Date of Birth: 7 March 2003 Height: 191cm Games MFC 2024: 15 Career Total:  15 Goals MFC 2024: 0 Career Total:  0 Games CDFC 2024: 6 Goals CDFC 2024: 0

    Originally an NBL basketballer with the Brisbane Bullets, he moved across town in 2019 to the AFL Lions where he played 19 games before crossing to Melbourne where he was expected to fill a role as a back up ruckman/key forward. Unfortunately, didn’t quite get there although he did finish equal sixth in Casey’s best and fairest award. Date of Birth: 23 February 1999 Height: 198cm Games CDFC: 14 Goals CDFL: 13

    Sadly, had to wrap up a great career in midstream on the back of multiple concussions which culminated in the Maynard hit in the 2023 Qualifying Final. His loss to the club was inestimable over and above his on field talent given his character and leadership qualities, all of which have been sorely missed.
