    west coast want to trade first round pick.

    Won't be to us though. They want a Ready Made player, they don't want a kid.

    Hope they regret it....Real Bad.

    Worth consideration only, if it's thin. At his age I'm not sure it'd really be helping the squad the way people think. Looking at the Martin/Jurrah selections which have worked well, I'm all for another 20ish tall that has shown something since being turned down a couple of times from the draft. 3 times a charm, right?

    Hasleby would offer more in the way of winning a couple of games than he would in terms of assisting the kids.

    Like your line of thinking in that regard. Reckon Alex Silvagni would be worth consideration. Can play back and forward KP and still young. He's had a very good year with Casey?

    Still trying to give this one some legs.........

    I'd take Dangerfield and Adelaide's first pick (11?) for pick 2 (gives them Trengrove) which still leaves us with a tall forward option with our second pick.

    They wouldn't do Dangerfield for pick 2, let alone hand over "11".

    I have heard that Jamar wants to be traded to Port Adeliade

    Also Steven Salopek + Travis Boak wants to come back to Victoria

    Ben McKinely wants to come home

    Charman wants to move clubs same with Seaby and Jonathan Griffin

    Marcus Drum also wants to come back to Victoria

    Also Brent Reilly may want to come home

    Also maybe that Ryan Gamble want to move club so he gets move game time

    Mitch Thorp and Beau Dowler also up for trade

    There are some that i have heard of.

    (Also Steven Salopek + Travis Boak wants to come back to Victoria) If true I'd offer Pick 2 + Rivers, for Salopek & Boak + their 1st Rnd pick, (9).

    Far out.

    It's begun already. I thought I could last until September and then bugger off for a while.

    I hear that in their desperation for another tall forward, Geelong are giving us Ablett for Newton, and because it's plainly obvious that Sydney are in the market for a marque forward as well, they are giving us their first round draft pick for Trent Zomer.

    Reilly mus't be seriously looked at. The rest is just crap to be honest.

    I've got a good source that says Michael Newton wants to be delisted.

    Really ?? OHHH God please grant him his wish !!

    Exactly, the way Ben Cousins is playing in the middle at Richmond. A senior Mentor in the heat of battle, even if its only for 12 months.

    Except Cousins is a gun, Haselby isn't...

    While I agree he is a bit one paced I would have thought his skills were as good as any of our other midfielders. Apart from Davey & Grimes of course. With McDonald possibly hanging up the boots at seasons end he could be the ideal replacement.

    The reason Macca isn't list clogging this year, is because the kids are too young to play in the midfield, come next year, we'll want the Grimes, Morton's etc to be playing in the middle, Haselby would only prevent them from getting valuable experience. Furthermore, Scully and Trengove are ready made players, so presuming we draft them, Haselby would only be stealing their spots. No dice, I'm afraid.

    Isn't this just wanting to retire?

    Doesn't need the MFC to do anything for this to happen - just do it.

    If Macka stays on, I think he could play a back pocket role, while Cheney developes.

    Gee...that's come from Left Field

    Yep.

    Brian Lake from the dogs could be up as contract hasnt been extended,

    good quality player there

    Talk of Sydney as a possible club hunting for someone like Lake. Bulldogs confident in signing though, heard James Fantasia say that today. They will wait on re-signing Aker.

    Question i need answering as best as possible.

    Are Scully & Trengove as "ready made" as Daniel Rich. I saw a lot of Rich on TV. I haven't seen the 2 Boys for this year, only go on what i read.

    Are they Ready for senior AFL straight away??

    I believe so.

    Scully will play just as many as a Rich this year IMO. He's that good.

    Trengove will be ready, he's been playing for Sturt of late and playing well. Becoming accustomed to 'hard bodies' in at Senior level.

    Others may have different opinions.

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?
