Aaron Davey

seriously if the right deal came along, say a top ten pick.... i would trade davey.....

Geez there are some absolute numbskulls on this board now. Trade Davey away and you may as well kiss the potentially great careers of Jurrah and Wonaeamirri goodbye. They look up to Aaron like an older brother, and with him gone they will most definitely go back in their shells and either quit football or become list cloggers. Davey is worth so much more to us than just himself, he is worth 3 players. Never mind the millions of dollars we will lose from a marketing perspective that Aaron provides.

As Napoleon Dynamite says, "Gosh.....Idiot"

 

Davey is worth far more to MFC than any Trade deal.

 
(10 & 26)

Ah, you misinterpret, I don't want him to go. But if he must, thats close to what I'd be asking for.

Id be interested in buying a car off of you sometime :rolleyes:

That'll be Davey's manager as he must be in contract negotiations ATMO.

Green was supposedly off this time last year

Now thats a big statement which I say is a load of rubbish. Wona and LJ are grown, proud men whose form and desire to play football existed before they meet Davey. In all seriousness, that has got to be one of the craziest statements I've seen here. Quite absurd really.

IF and I repeat if Davey wants to leave then goodbye. We take as much as we can for him, but IF he wants out, then whats the point stopping him.

Like most here though, I hope this rumour is crap.

Just those two or all the black fellas?

Leadership is something to be treasured, but don't tell me LJ and AW will be lost without a steady hand to guide them unless you include CM, JW, AM, SB or any other white fella.

Lucky we kept James McDonald or else Sam Blease and James Strauss would be rooted.

 

lol

I hate this time of year

Give me Pendlebury, young Steele and Pick 10 and I'd trade... just.

While he is a positive you are tugging it a little...no make that alot.

with picks 1 and 2, do we really need another top 10 pick.

Trading a player like Davey, for another top 10 pick is risky and could really hurt MFC.

Personally, i think keeping picks 1, 2 and 18, and off loading some list cloggers would be a successful Trade week.

What do you think his value is on the market then?

Green was supposedly off this time last year

Thats why I posted that. In response to the Lake posts re Melbourne's pitch for him.

It's said, he (Lake) has in principle come to terms with the Doggies new contract offer.

This is what I believe is going on with Aaron's manager.

Some twit over on Big footy is saying that its basically a done deal that Davey is going to Collingwood for their first round pick and Chris Dawes. He is saying Anthony Corrie is his cousin and they desperately want to play together, and this is the only way it will happen.

I would have thought if they want to play together, the only way it was going to happen was in the reserves, as thats all Corrie is good for

I personally find it very very hard to believe, but what do others think?

if all they are doing is "clogging" our list, why would another club want them "clogging" their list?

Pretty much sums up my thoughts too.

I'm sorry DD but WTF? Just a statement with no facts behind it. I know nothing of the inner sanctum but seeing both Wonna and LJ play footy over there 1st seasons they will be just fine (barring injury) without Davey (not that I want him gone at all).

Both seem to have an inner desire to be the best AFL footballers they can be, it would matter little if one player was at another club.

Agree.

Why would you repeat it on another site?


september ... yawn

Ignoring the obvious flaws in this rumour, it must be said that any trade involving Dawes is destined for failure. Has not played well every time I've seen him in action. Usually is easily shut down by the opposition.

Gee, pardon me, i thought these sites were for discussing such topics and i thought it would be an appropriate topic for discussion on this site

Other clubs in different situations, would look a players differently.

A list clogger for MFC, could be a good player elsewhere.

Personally i think it's worth a shot at trying to free up the list this way, rather than just delisting players no longer needed.

When you start the thread some twit over on Big Footy.....Gotcha.

I doubt it at the moment.

Chris Johnson anyone?

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
