It was my understanding that you couldn't trade draft picks that you received in the same trade period...can somebody confirm this?

    This won't happen. Especially, when there's a slim chance that we could pick SB for nothing in the PSD and hold onto Jamar. Besides, this goes against us trying to better our picks. Definitely won't.

    Just heard but not 100% that it is going to be Jamar and pick 11 for Shaun Burgouyne. Just waiting for confirmation.

    Where did you hear it from & what's the latest?

    From a guy and I don't know anymore. He just told me it was a matter of time before it was announced but like I said not 100% I don't even want to believe but thats what I have been told. Shocking deal if true !!

    Apparently this rumor has made it's way onto SEN (big deal, but yeah)

    Seems absurd though, Brock for 11, 11 for Burgouyne and we lose Jamar... crazy. Especially with even a slim hope of a pathway through the PSD.

    Think a few bozzos have just equated the rumor of Davey, Harrington and Burgouyne being seen together and Port's interest in Jamar, thrown in a Pick and Bingo !!

    Crazy talk... surely.

    Would Port really givepick 9/10 for Jamar? seems way over the odds to me.

    I want to know from all fans, do we want Burgoyne? simple yes or no. i am undecided. if the majority is yes, then pick 18 and Jamar for him maybe?

    SB is AD casin we will Waite to see what happens, then pick him up in psd, there is no point giving anything away for SB,the dees need a long term solution to their list SB will help as next season,and our high picks are for the future if we get him in PSD then it will not effect our rebuilding

    Manager just confirmed Shaun hasn't met with anyone from Melbourne.

    Carry on..

    Burgoyne is a hell of a lot better than Brock so don't even throw him in the same category.

    Plus, we must have some belief that guys like Meesen & Spencer might step it up a notch.

    I rate Jamar but he's in no way shape or form a top Ruckman in the AFL. He's a better forward if anything.

    I'm sure we know what we're doing.

    I for one wouldn't mind a "big name" to the MFC. Would bring up our supporter base & TV packages.

    Plus, I'd like to beat every other club to him if that's alright with you blokes..?

    We could get him in the PSD but ruining links with Port Adelaide wouldn't help us now or further down the track?

    What if the same thing happened to us?

    We too would like to think we could get something for 'our' player.

    This deal goes against everything melbourne have been about over the past few weeks and even the last few years, not a chance in hell this is true.

    A subliminal message that Carlton is going to be part of the deal! :lol:

    I love trade week.

    If they said Jamar and pick 11, I reckon the club would think about it, and then in the end say no. They'd be too widely criticised. Burgoyne shades Brock as a player, but has fitness concerns and is 4 years older. It's just not a good trade, not when we have KP concerns. Pick 18, if you rate the mock drafts going round everywhere, is a real drop off from pick 11, so they might consider that one a bit more appropriate.

    My feeing is that they first 4 picks in the top 20 will be kept. Or possibly upgraded somehow. Burgoyne will only come as part of a multi-club deal, or by PSD... if that were the case, then sure, I'd have him. He'd be a good inclusion, but not the ideal/perfect one that many will insist it is. He's too old to be part of youth plans, and too old to be giving up prized picks.

    Hawthorn spreading advantageous little rumours again .... I love the Pelchen bloke ;)

    Just heard on SEN Burgoyne is meeting with Davey and Bailey in Collins st.

    What do we do?

    And who happened to mention this today ? You?

    He hasn't met anyone from Melbourne.

    No thanks.

    I will go buy 60 tablets of St john's wort if this happens, or get a prescription for zoloft.

    Funniest thing I have read all day!

    Shocking deal, that would mean we've given up Jamar & McLean for Burgoyne. Terrible list managment if that was the case.

    Not to mention pick 11. No thank-you.

    And who happened to mention this today ?

    Every Hawthorn supporter in Melbourne was there ... hence why the meeting was held in Collins street ... easier to get there via tram :o

    Aker went to bulldogs as a 27yr old for a second round pick in a normal draft. at that stage Aker only had 3 preimerships and a brownlow...

    Aker was 30yr not 27yr. Thus the second round pick.

    No thanks.

    can't see this happening think they (MFC) will play hard ball as they hold ALL the cards....... all rumours

    thanks for the correction...and what a great pickup for the dogs he has been too!

    The meeting was BS. SEN reported that his manager phoned them and said he has never met with the Dees. That and I think flash is still O/S.

  • Quote

    I doubt we'll be trading for Burgoyne. If we want him, we'll be persuading him to resist going to Hawthorn or any other club this week, and go into the PSD.

    None of this matters, because he'll end up at Hawthorn. Come Friday, Port will realise that they're not going to get any offers better than that which Hawthorn has already proposed. So they'll take it.

    • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.
