Carlton asking for more!

Featured Replies

Posted

I just read this article on the AFL site:

http://www.afl.com.au/news/newsarticle/tab...66/default.aspx

In particular this comment annoyed me.

"I'll speak to Melbourne and see whether there might be something else that they might want to give back our way"

You offerred pick 11 Carlton, don't expect anything else in return. Carlton is in panic mode, no first round draft pick if they trade it to us and now no Fevola.

 

I think they are going to want something that they no they can't get so the trade cant be done

They need that pick 11 now to get a KPF since fev is gone and i think the trade is looking better for us, hopefully we dont give in and the original trade is done.

I'd offer them Chris Johnson... oh hang on... :rolleyes:

Just posturing from carlscum

They've made an agreement and can't be indian givers now

This will be the first trade made during trade week.

Just got to make sure Mclean holds his end of the bargain up and agrees to reasonable contract terms

and passes all the screenings.


I guess we could spare Robbo.

Icke said there has been some urgency from Melbourne to get the deal lodged

No surprise there!

Interesting... how would people feel about Newton being involved in the trade? Carlton could be interested if Fev leaves.

Most see him as a list clogger, but he could still turn out alright.

 

If Newton can be bundled into the trade I will party like it's 1999

hmmmm, let me think about it ....no there is nothing we want to give "back your way". so pipe and [censored] off.

carlton will have a first round pick because they will get adequately compensated due to fev leaving.


They can take their pick of Johnson, Batram, Newton, and Bell.

Dunn and Miller would be worth a teeny bit more but I think the deal will be done.

Pick 34 would be useful for upgrades with other clubs so I would prefer they keep it.


Perhaps a swap of third round draft picks may get it over the line.

I can hear the Dr clearing his throat again.

Stick to your guns MFC 11 is enough. Unless they want to take a contracted player we don't want, but that might be hard to sell.

Icke said that "at this stage, what we've agreed on will make the deal happen" so I'm confident it could get over the line without it.

Perhaps he has his eye on an uncontracted and unloved player..?

Or perhaps it's going to get embroiled in a Fevola deal?

On this topic i have heard that the blues are going to back out of this and go to the saints and say lets trade for Ball, pick 17 or 18 (im not sure which one they have) and the saints get Fev

Doesn't sound right. Fev like the 50m arc to himself, he won't get that at St Kilda.

I could see this happening... maybe brock will stay

Do you mean Valenti?

The saints have one of the best forward lines in the comp, I'd be suprised if they went for fev.

Don't you Buckle Demons. Play Hard & make sure any deal is beneficial to the Melbourne Football Club.

Pick 11 it is. Take it or leave it Carlton. Cheats are often indian Givers.

  • REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

  • CASEY: Essendon

    Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

  • POSTGAME: Port Adelaide

    The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
