I can handle pick 4 for Boak/Beams they are exactly what we need and we need quality experience urgently!!!!

Boak yes (no 1 in a modest mid-field); Beames no (3rd or 4th in a gun mid-field; not tagged)

 

Beams is very similar to Boak in the sense they both are smart players and can spread. Even though our midfield is probably the worst in the comp, we have got some talent like Jones, Trengove, Blease and Gysberts. If you add Boak/Beams plus Viney and hopefully we can land some speed players into the mix our future looks brighter

If MFC give up #4 for Boak I would be extremely disappointed!!!

#12 maximum & a player if need be.

You'd give up pick 12 plus a player for another player that only had 4 x 30 possession games in his first 68 ?


And to say he owes Port nothing??? Well nothing can be further from the truth. If he decides to leave he will ensure that they are looked after.

The said poster actually said, "However, Port owes Boak nothing and will thus take the highest bidder of any Victoria based club."

You've misinterpreted his comments. He said Port owes Boak nothing, not the other way around.

Gee, Pick #4 for Boak? Really?

Just because he's leaving? (or purports to be?)

Pass.

BTW, Ox on SEN just said that Trav Cloke aint going anywhere - 99% sure he'll stay with the Pies.

Pick 4, Na!

Risk the chance of a potential Judd/Hodge/Ball scenario from a strong draft.

Nope.

Apologies. I did miscomprehend that.

Bah! Not when Trav Boak is available.

Tapscott will never be able to exert a comparable influence on a match.

Glad that we've agreed to disagree.

Boak hardly influences matches.


Except Boak is a respectable young man, whereas Beams is a human stain...

I'm confident that puts my opinion in pretty good stead.

makes me wonder if you've even seen him play...

Of course, you're always right, nothing else matters.

Please do not reply to my posts - I don't deal in rudeness, as is your form.

Why do you keep saying that?

I know that you will not say on here.

Am I the only one in the football world that wonders what the hell he is supposed to have done.

Not that I care too much if he can play lets get him.


I called SEN tonight and asked the OX if he would take Boak for pick 4 and he said NO WAY.

Derm said if he was at MFC he would.

Im 50/50 at this stage.

Im sick of skinny kids.

Me too we have enough for the balance of this decade

Read that port adelaide are keen on Toumpas, maybe us passing on him in the ND could be part of a potential trade deal.

I'd love to get Boak or Caddy, but I have an issue giving up an exceedingly valuable pick for a midfielder that isn't an A grader.

Boak may become one, but right now he's not. Pick 13 is reasonable.


Pick 13, a pass on Toumpas should hopefully seal the deal.

I'd rather Toumpas than Boak.

We would get Wines or Stringer instead.

So we would get Boak and Wines.

Might be a big reason why Port would want our earlier pick to pick-up the SA fella Toumpas.

I understand your logic and it makes pretty good sense if Port was immediately behind us in the draft - although the Dogs probably will be - but I love the look of Toumpas.

Although I'm sobered by the notion that something happens to players once they don a Melbourne guersney.

Oh, what if he goes 1 or 2,? It's a nice thought, BUT.

  • 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.
