    Great result, very happy, was a little worried he rocketed himself up to an early second round pick but what a bargain :)

    What did Moore go for? Hopefully so eons before collingwoods first bid in him

    Collingwood had to take him with their first rounder apparently.

    Interesting to see the Dees use pick 2 for Isaac Heeney forcing the Swans to take him with their first pick....

    Welcome to the club Billy!!

    Have a really good feeling about this kid, I reckon he'll really come on as a player once his body gets a few pre-seasons into it.

    What is he going to say?

    "Oh ffs Melb has picked me up?! Career over, what a waste. I really had some good chats with the Giants and they said they might grab me."

  • Quote

    Sounds like an excellent result to nab him with our third rounder. He sounded like he was doing really well at the draft combine (something people on here didn't seem to like :wacko: ) so welcome to the club Stretch, and good luck!

    If he didn't want to come to Melbourne he didn't need to nominate under F/S rule.

    Could have stayed in Adelaide and gone to Adelaide.

    Interesting that we bid pick 2 on Heeney, I wonder if the club will try and poach him in the future

    Adds credence to the equalisation argument in future: "swans got a freebie that we'd have paid pick 2 for..."

    Not what I'm saying, was making a point that no players would come out saying they don't want to be at a club they were picked up by.

    Anyway great to have young Billy onboard, hopefully in 2-3 years he is making a contribution to the cause.

    Welcome Billy! Just put your head down, work hard and you will reap the multiple benefits of becoming an AFL listed player. Best of luck and soon we might all be yelling Go Billy or "Stretcha"!

    Wow I remember when this Stretch thread was started

    Weclone Billy!

    I'm all for cloning him, but how many do we have in mind?

    Half a dozen maybe.......at a stretch !!!

    Great get!!!! He should be the start of a great trading season for us. Add, Brayshaw, Lubamba, and some more. Plus Hogan and Trengove to come back....................... YES!!!!

    Really impressed with how he presented himself on Trade Radio.

    Do you think that Roos was making a statement, that he is worth 2, but going for 19 to the Swans.

    For those thinking Sydney are getting another leg up, lets not forget, we snared a young J.Viney for an absolute bargain as well...

    Billy was on Trade Radio today. For anyone that missed it, here's the link. He sounds very excited to be joining the dees.

    I liked his comments on the website and l am convinced that he is going to be a big part of the future of this Club along with Viney, Salem, JKH, Toumpas, Tyson, Hogan and Brayshaw! (and a reborn Trengrove!)

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
