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.

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.

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

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.

    HEAVEN OR HELL by The Oracle

    Clashes between Melbourne and St Kilda are often described as battles between the forces of heaven and hell. However, based on recent performances, it’s hard to get excited about the forthcoming match between these two sides. It would be fair to say that, at the moment, both of these teams are in the doldrums. The Demons have become the competition’s slow starters while the Saints are not only slow to begin, they’re not doing much of a job finishing off their games either. About the only th

    THE BLOW by Whispering Jack

    Narrm’s finals prospects took a crushing blow after the team’s insipid performance at Optus Stadium against a confident Waaljit Marawar in the first of its Doug Nicholls Round outings for 2024.  I use the description “crushing blow” advisedly because, although the season is not yet at it’s halfway mark, the Demons have now failed abysmally in two of their games against teams currently occupying bottom eight places on the ladder.  The manner in which these losing games were played out w

    HALF FULL by KC from Casey

    It was a case of the Casey Demons going into a game with a glass half full in their match up against the Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields on Saturday. As the list of injured and unavailable AFL and VFL listed players continues to grow and with Melbourne taking all three emergencies to Perth for the weekend on a “just in case” basis, its little brother was always destined to struggle. Casey was left with only eight AFL listed players from who to select their team but only two - an out-of-form

    POSTGAME: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    Many warned that this was a danger game and the Demons were totally outclassed all game by a young Eagles team at Optus Stadium in Perth as they were defeated by 35 points.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k
