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

IMO he's still a bit young in his mind.

The last Pre season was a good indicator of him starting to mature, but he still let things slip when it wasn't given to him on a platter.

He could continue to improve slowly or not, It's up to his inner Attitude.

I'm out of patience with these Non Physical type players. We have a budding list and I for one want to move on to fresh faces in the Small Forward/Mid, area.

    According to the Hun, North have already interviewed Maric and given him a medical.

    Fait accompli, it seems.

    Not much of a loss really.

    Especially if we land Lisle.

    We must be certain of having room on our list though.

    Maybe it's due to one of our players-to-be being ineligible for the 2012 season?

    Warnock & Bate WILL find new homes.

    It just depends on what we get in return.

    Maybe it's also why Green has still not re-signed?

    But I find it hard to believe his contract negotiations are being held off because we might not have room for him on the list.

    Maybe Green has intention of screwing the club, like Bruce did last year..

    Was in Belgrave Safeway again last night, and overheard the same guy telling another checkout chick that the Dees are cert's to get both Goddard and Brad Crouch, in a complex deal involving 5 other clubs including the Bombers who trade Heppel to GWS then get him back again in an on-trade that includes a solid guarantee that Sheedy stays in Sydney.

    Noticed he was stocking up on Oreos which are on special.

    Belgrave has a Safeway?

    yep...its sort of high up from the road.

    I digress..lol

    According to Twitter, we look to be getting North's second round pick for Maric.

    Which is Pick 37

    Mark LeCras, Todd Goldstein, Leigh Montagna all handy previous pick 37's....

    In very DIFFERENT drafts !!

    Given currently: Melbourne: 12, 36, 54, 72, 90 then 37 is a better prospect than those after, but i doubt of the calibre of those you mention.

    I cant really see us picking up more than 4 in the draft and some may stay a little longer on our lists as a result.

    Very good outcome for the Dees if this comes to fruition. I'd prefer to take a punt on a second rounder, than persist with Addam who's shown very little imo.

    Yep. Especially if we have a special in out sites.

    couldnt agree more.

  • Quote

    Thats a good deal if true. Would not be suprised to hear a swap of picks involved.

    Agreed. Surely if we're getting their second rounder it'd be something like Maric + 54 for 37.

    Herd on SEN today that the Bulldogs put Cooney up for trade, apparently has really bad knee problems. Is he a risk worth taking? Maybe straight swap Bate for Cooney

    we just lucked out getting rid of someone with dodgy knees !! B)

    Apparently a similar issue to Cooney.

    Apparently a similar issue to Cooney.

    Cooney has little to no cartilage left in his knee making it extremely painful to run, Scully has a previous patella injury which may cause him to struggle with large training loads (according to doc Larkin). Whilst they are both knee injuries they are quite different.

    Bulldogs put out a statement denying the Cooney trade talk and that he would remain a Bulldog player.

    • 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.
