Shelve the Cloke idea, let's get Jonno Patton ...

Featured Replies

 

Cloke's a spud. I'll have Patton any day before Damir's boy Travis.

 

Sheedy would rather him go to the draft than give him to us. And there will be 18 other teams in the competition with this same thought in mind. Whilst the bitter man is at the helm we won't be able to get any of their players.

So let him.


Of course we should find out his long term future. After what GW$ did to the MFC all is fair game.

The MFC must be relentless in the pursuit of its own gains. It is what other clubs do.

To say "we do not have the balls" is an attitude we need to shed.

If anything the MFC "balls" need to grow...

Get in his manager's ear now.

5 mil for 5 years. Starting 2014.

The ultimate payback.

IMO RR 2013 is about getting good experienced players into our team.

2014 in our current predictment is a lifetime away.

Lets go after the getables for 2013.

If he is any good and we may not know till 2014.

The que will stretch to about 17 chances.

 

Dees supporter as a kid!

I heard somewhere he was a dees supporter but now just generally follows football


Unfortunately he isn't eligible for free agency for a long time. So we will have to pay through the nose to get him.

I don't really see it as payback at all. GWS didn't have to give up anything to poach Scully from us. We will have to give up a couple of first round draft picks minimum to get Patton.

While I don't really think Cloke would be worth the coin, it would be awesome knowing that we got him without giving up any players or draft picks. Hence why free agency is so interesting.


You can already see how good Patton is going to be. So too Cameron. If anyone would rather Watts than Cameron they've been wasting their time following footy.

OK, wrong thread.

Love your combative, positive, go-getting attitude as usual Sloonie.

Silly dream. He won't leave, will see out his next contract, and at that stage a move for Patton is possible.

I say try:

Aaron edwards - foil for clarke, bandaid

Sidebottom, montagna, goddard - $$$ may get them.

Beams at less then those mentioned above

Myles sewell, shane valenti, and yes even Brock Mclean.

Fringe players from the hawks, carlton, WCE, essendon, geelomg

Only spend big bucks to get a walk up star, and I think we could recycle a few more stop gaps like seller.

Clarke so far value for coin.

So 2 proven facts from this year are we (1) need quality ready to go midfielders and (2) we could do with a foild up foward for clarke like a A. Edwards or crameri or even a mcglynn type.

Fingers croseed there is a few goodbyes, more quality kids, And a few more bandaides so kids can develop properly.

Jonno has told you this definitively has he? Wow, thanks for the inside goss.

Wow ... woohooo! Now we're cookin'!

*Pacepalm*

 

Would love to get one of Cameron or Patton

Jetstar domestic flight and a silvertop taxi to AAMI Park.

That will be the attitude going forward. GW$ will not be able to hold all these guns.

Players will move once FA kicks in. Including our players.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
