According to the Age GWS actually wanted to get 2 U17 picks back with the promise that another pick taken would not be used on O'Meara. While it is clear that the AFL don't like the look of this it has left the door ajar. Unbelievable.

I agree Red. It just means that GWS need to work a bit harder at making their intentions a tiny bit less transparent. Truely unbelievable!

More oddness.

Adelaide List Manager David Noble on Gunston Trade "Overall result won't pan out until the end of the week".

Given no one has said how Adeliade have secured Pick 2/Crouch in MD methinks something dodgy is going on again and that if allowed to proceed by AFL MD1/O'Meara will be back to GWS.

Given this is a discreet trade between these clubs, not sure how GWS could come into it. I wonder if the comment by Noble is saying overall result is referring to all the trades they are trying to achieve this week.

I have a feeling they won't trade O'Meara and will look at getting him next year in 2012. Unless Gubby is creating a Picasso of sorts to establish a genuine on-trade.

Emma Quayle tweeting that GWS starting to talk to other teams again now, she reads it as perhaps they've given up their last ditch effort to secure Jaeger...

Still a day and 1/2 to go.

Does trade week not run until Monday this year?

I think the trading surrounding the 17yr mini draft picks has to be resolved by the end of Thursday. Trade week continues to Monday, and the mini draft is run on Monday as well.

GWS won't accept a bid for Pick 1 (claim that no offers acceptable)

GWS has done deal with Adel that they will take Crouch

GWS will not seek bids for pick 3 and 4

MD commences with one stakeholder

Pick 1 is "passed"

Pick 2 Adel takes Crouch

Pick 3 pass

Pick 4 Pass

GWS has 3 trades left for 2012 MD

Jaeger coes into 2012 normal draft (where GWS expect to get 1st pick)

How does pick 2 get traded (apparently to Adelaide) without Pick 1 being decided first?

If Adelaide gets pick 2, and no other picks are given out, thats the same as it being pick 1 is it? :wacko:

Had enough of compromised drafts, odd mini drafts and GWS trying to rort everything.... Bring on 2012 trade week, and Jack Viney!

.... oh and I guess the 2012 season as well!

If that happens.... I would love to see Adelaide screw GWS over and take O'Meara anyway...

    Once again the club’s top goal scorer but he had a few uncharacteristic flat spots during the season and the club will be looking for much better from him in 2025.

    After sustaining a torn ACL in the final match of the 2023 season Jake added a bit to the attack late in the 2024 season upon his return. He has re-signed on to the Demons for 1 more season in 2025. Date of Birth: 12 August 1991 Height: 186cm Games MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 229 Goals MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 188

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.

    The first round draft pick at #13 from twelve months ago the strongly built medium forward has had an impressive introduction to AFL football and is expected to spend more midfield moments as his career progresses.

    2024 Player Reviews: #42 Daniel Turner

    The move of “Disco” to a key forward post looks like bearing fruit. Turner has good hands, moves well and appears to be learning the forward craft well. Will be an interesting watch in 2025.

    The Demon’s key defender and backline leader had his share of injuries and niggles throughout the season which prevented him from performing at his peak.  Date of Birth: 5 March 1996 Height: 195cm Games MFC 2024: 18 Career Total: 178 Goals MFC 2024: 1 Career Total: 5

    2024 Player Reviews: #13 Clayton Oliver

    Lack of preparation after a problematic preseason prevented Oliver from reaching the high standards set before last year’s hamstring woes. He carried injury right through the back half of the season and was controversially involved in a potential move during the trade period that was ultimately shut down by the club.

    BLOODY BLUES by Meggs

    The conclusion to Narrm’s home and away season was the inevitable let down by the bloody Blues  who meekly capitulated to the Bombers.   The 2024 season fixture handicapped the Demons chances from the get-go with Port Adelaide, Brisbane and Essendon advantaged with enough gimme games to ensure a tough road to the finals, especially after a slew of early season injuries to star players cost wins and percentage.     As we strode confidently through the gates of Prin

    2024 Player Reviews: #5 Christian Petracca

    Melbourne’s most important player who dominated the first half of the season until his untimely injury in the Kings Birthday clash put an end to his season. At the time, he was on his way to many personal honours and the club in strong finals contention. When the season did end for Melbourne and Petracca was slowly recovering, he was engulfed in controversy about a possible move of clubs amid claims about his treatment by the club in the immediate aftermath of his injury.
