Hird and Sheahan were discussing On The Coach last night whether West Coast should offer up Kerr and Cox for trade. They seemed to think WC should trade for early draft picks (if the players were willing to go). Which got me wondering...

1. Should MFC trade a player or draft pick for 1 or both of these players?

2. What is the trade value of Kerr and Cox to other teams (especially Gold Coast)?

I am interested to hear what others think.

1. Should MFC trade a player or draft pick for 1 or both of these players? No.

2. What is the trade value of Kerr and Cox to other teams (especially Gold Coast)? Not very high.

1. Kerr 27, Cox 29 - Definately not in our window.

2. That's for them to decide, it doesn't concern us so pointless wasting time thinking about it.

1) Nope. Too old.

2) I think there trade value is still really good. Cox is still an awesome ruckman. Hawks would have to be really keen. Hawks would have to give up there number 1 pick. Eagles would probably want more than that.

Kerr's value has gone down a little as he has been injured for for the past few years. Late first rounder would do it. Bombers might be keen?

Easy: No & No

Cox is waining (no impact this year & injured); Kerr has had no impact for 3 yrs (since Judd & Cousins left/etc) and always injured.

I'd be very surprised if there was much interest from any club.

It is not Kerr's age at 27 that bothers me. When fit he is hands down elite in this competition. What bothers me about Kerr is his off field antics and attitude.

Jamar is a cheaper, younger and soon to be better option than Dean Cox.

I think that they were insinuating them being possible Gold Coast targets. From their perspective they would certainly bring much needed leadership and maturity to a young growing team.

From an MFC perspective.... Maybe three years ago but not interested now. Neither of them fill our needs and will cost over what they are worth longevity wise.

MFC should say no to both of them.

GC should say no to Kerr but chase Cox. If Cos were to move, he would be worth at least a 1st round pick. And which clubs have first round pick to give?

And Cox at 29 is too old??? FFS. What garbage. He should be in his prime. Cox has played every game this year in a very ordinary Eagles outfit.

This thread might be worse than the one where blokes are saying they'd prefer to see us miss out on the finals?!

Cox and Kerr have no place on the dee's list and i reckon they would be likley to retire if the eagles were planning to move them on.

Cox is way past it, but will play on for a year or two more while Natinui becomes a football player & Kerr (without injury) is a better player than 100% of their young midfielders. If they are looking long term they should look to pick up some good young talent (maybe by trading their senior players) and get rid of woosha becasue he doesnt seem to coach / develop the younger players.

Daniel Kerr??? :blink:

I dont think so. :rolleyes:

To tell you the truth I thought the same thing after hitting post... :P

I don't want us to trade for anyone unless there is a good full forward who has decided to leave his club so we can get him relativity cheap - and I just don't see that happening.

Who in the AFL do you rate as a good FF, regardless of your criteria?

There aren't many.

I don't expect one to be on offer TBH. They would have to be under 25, have some form, be annoyed at their club and we would have to be able to out bid other clubs for them.

My point really was that unless we are pretty much gifted that sort of player I'd rather we stayed away from the trade table.

Be a very backward step for us to take either. Cox might top up a team Kerr over the hill . Move on nothing to see here

Posted

Don't see room for either of these guys at the MFC. Would be very dissapointed if we we're to take either, but it's only a moot point. Can't see it happening and would be willing to put the house and car on it!

Not for us.

However, for the others: -

Kerr/27, Poss', to the Bombers, who seem to need on-ballers.

Cox/29, Maybe, to the Hawks, who need a quick return from a Ruck investment.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players.
