I understand that Warnock has expressed a preference for the blues. I think that would be close to a straight swap. Very similar standard players. Both have dodgy kicking and decision making.

Getting O'failpin to Melbourne would be akin to asking Ben Holland to make a comeback; we'd probably get more value out of Ben.

Please let this only be a rumour started by some sadistic Carlton supporter paying us back for Brock. In fact I'd rather take Brock back.

    Heard a rumour tonight from the guy 2 in front of me in the checkout queue at Belgrave Safeway, who told the checkout girl that he had heard from a cousin of an assistant coach at Melbourne that they were close to trading Brendon Goddard for Cale Morton and an early draft pick.

    Said it was "win-win" because the Saints have salary cap issues and Goddard sees his future at the Dees now the window's closed at St Kilda. What d'you reckon... ?

    ClarkyHeraldSun Dees could get Scully replament in 17 yo mini draft. Brad crouch is their man. Will cost one of two 1st rd compo picks. Dream result

    Lovely if it happens, but......there is no way in the world the Saints would ever do this deal.

    What do I reckon ?

    I reckon the checkout girl should involve herself in a trade to Coles, because prices there are going...down, down.

    I can here the wheels ticking from princes park, here's where we can pay back the Dees for Brock & CJ.

    C'mon Craigy, do your thing mate. Have the Crows got a spare tall forward or 2, & do they need a solid tall back?

    I new I should have shopped @ Safeway today, instead of the lousy Indian run Coles I went to. When you ask them where the Weet Bix are, they show round the whole store before ending in the next aisle, and then wait for a Tip.

    Goddard you say, No, not 2 comp picks! Morton + P12, or a comp pick next Year? Yes, I think so!

    You had to ask where the Weet Bix is in a Coles?

    Either you made up the story because you don't like Indians, or you really aren't the sharpest tool in the shed.

    No [censored] sherlock. I'm not too fussed about what they do.

    I love trade week

    When all is said and done, there will be more said than done

    Why they extended it for two days totally escapes me\

    Still it is great for those posters anxious to boost their post counts

    Bring back zones and form fours I say

    Bate to Western Bulldogs

    Maric to North

    Jordan Lisle to the Dees

    mentioned here

    http://www.heraldsun.com.au/sport/afl/saints-field-offers-for-gram/story-fn69a32t-1226163554972

    Don't know much about Lisle other than all aussie u18 - anyone know much?

  • Quote

    If Maric is going to North would entertain a straight swap for Campbell or Urquart.

    Will be interesting to see what the cost is for Lisle. is he out of contract?

    I don't mind this at face value, but from a list management perspective Maric is a delistable and we don't have many of those. If we did this deal it becomes doubly important to re-home Bate and/or Dunn or we'll find ourselves having to delist contracted players. It would also significantly reduce Joel Macdonald's chances of a new contract.

  • Quote

    Would be a shame to part ways with Maric. Has obviously run/running out of chances, but he was looking pretty impressive in the NAB cup... Don't feel as though we have gotten the best out of him.

    I'm trying to imagine Maric playing like Stokes or Christensen in the GF - and struggling.

    We have gotten what he can produce. There is nothing more to see with regards to Maric he has had ample opportunity the best thing for him would be a trade.

    Hopefully for his sake someone will pick him up.

    Which is exactly the point at which you need to make the call, while he still has some currency. He is highly unlikely to become a superstar and is highly likely not part of our best 21 going forward.

    We have sat on Bate for too long, would have got significantly more if we had acted sooner.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: West Coast

      Epic battle alert.  This Sunday, Casey Fields hosts a coach’s showdown pitting the wits of the master Mick Stinear (92 games, 71.7% win rate) against his protégé Daisy Pearce (16 games, 43.8%). Still early in her coaching journey, Daisy’s record doesn’t yet reflect her impact — but she’s already the best-performed coach at West Coast.Dais’ is mythic.  Like Katniss Everdeen, everyone either wants to kiss her, kill her (sporting metaphor) or be her.  Toothers Daisy Pearce is a role model, someone admired for their heart, humility and humour.

    • 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.
