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.

    that's what i was thinking- what was the source apart from someone hearing it on SEN?

    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.

    Possibly trade any of Green, Miller, Wheatley, Jamar, Bell

    Keep Bruce, McDonald and Whelan

    I doubt this is true but if it is its a great deal for the MFC.

    I was thinking more like, hoping to trade - Green, Bruce, Wheatley, Bell. (White for nicks)...

    Keep - McDonald, Miller, Jamar and Whelan.

    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

    Id take Wheaters of any of them any day.

    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.

    Wasn't even discussed this trade according to Connolly.

  • Quote

    Yeah but also take what Connolly is sayign with a grain of salt, no point upsetting the player if nothing comes of it.

    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.

    what are they trying to convince other clubs that he is good by advertising him on the websight?

    well, he has a bit of currency considering he had a good year this year??

    cant believe jamar isnt getting traded now (or so i read somewhere)

    hopefully we get something for davey, green, (altho he wont go if this davey bs is true), and wheatley and cj

    • NON-MFC: Round 07

      Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • PREGAME: Richmond

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
