Trade Bait

The picks we get for them leaving can be traded which will be the same value.

I believe we get compensation picks for Unrestricted

I think you will be surprised at how low the compensation will be.

The formula involves the wage at their new club and games played the previous couple of years and IIRC possibly B+F finishes.

It won't be much.

The formula is an AFL secret, just like the PP formula is now a secret too.

Yeah, but I could have sworn I saw an article where the discussed some parameters...

IIRC, when HWFUA was on his way to Breakfast Point there was some discussion in the papers about why we got such a good deal (only good because we are crap this year) and it surrounded wage, past effort, importance to last seasons efforts, (draft position was taken into consideration but surely won't with RFA and UFA) etc.

Tapscott for Caddy

I'm not sure what the fuss is about Caddy. Why would we trade Tapscott for the 5th or 6th best player in a wooden spoon side. FFS, he had 11 possessions against us on Sunday. I'd need to be convinced he was running on one leg to excuse that performance. I'd rather have the grunt of Tapscott. At least he knows how to make the opposition nervous.

The FA compensation is not based on the same formula as the GWS OOC compensation.

Totally agree, there are quite a few we should be looking at before Caddy.

People are massively overrating this guy... he has had one or two good games this year, no more.

Me too Crawf52

I saw nothing on sunday to get excited about.

If he is worth what some people are claiming why do we think GCS would hand him over.

if he is that good they will want to keep him

Wouldn't even be top 10 at GC. A lot of hype without much to show for it.

My opinion of who we will want to get rid off and what I think they are worth.

BATE Mid 3rd round draft pick or will be delisted but will take what we are offered

BENNELL early 3rd round draft pick or we will keep.

PETTERD mid 3rd round to early 4th round but will take what we get(I really hate to say that)

MORTON Mid 3rd round hopefully or possible part of a trade but will take anything.

LAWRENCE delist

Bail delist

Joel MACDONALD early 3rd round or part of a trade package otherwise keep.

GREEN retired

So that is 6 off the list at least to allow for draftees.

names I think we would consider as part of major trading as part of getting a big name

SYLVIA

MAGNA

MOLONEY

SYLVIA

Now my opinion on a few that this thread have bagged.

TAPSCOTT - he and viney in 3 years will be the same as selwood and chappy.

And DUNN will stay as although not overly talented he can be given a job when we are lacking and will do a half reasonable job at either end of the ground.

Mitsubishi?

Seriously, I, too, think that Dunn is worth keeping. Can be coached to do a job.

I think bail could attract some value, if only coupled with one of our picks for a better pick

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out
