Dude wears hipster specs with his Collingwood tracksuit. He should be waterboarded in a pool of Danish-based Apple cider for that.

Lol we're like the unattractive sex tourist. We have a bundle of cash but still nobody will even look at us. I feel sorry for us

I still like the idea of trading Martin for Wellingham.

Just because he wants to go back to WA doesn't mean he will.

End of the day it comes down to who has the rights to his contract and I doubt Collingwood will give it up cheap.

Ok pick 17 seems to have just been tabled by WC according to rumors.

Have barely head a peep from the MFC so far, so much for 'Leaving no stone unturned'

West coast are offering pick 17. Will we think wellingham at pick 13 is paying overs?

Presumably your getting this rumour (pick 17) from the fb page.

The trade period does not start for another week. FFS

It seems he's keen to head back West... Q stick perhaps going to Collingwood, not sure how they will afford him though?

Two articles have suggested there was initially lukewarm interest in him in WA. Word is he is pretty connected to Melbourne (the city) now days.

If WC offer pick 17 Id go with pick 13 in a heartbeat - if they were going to offer it for Caddy then definately worth using it and maybe Pettard for him.

Both of my Brothers know Kennedy's Father. My eldest Brother played at Hawthorn with him. They're p1ssed off at Clarkson to this day. Josh didn't want to leave, but was offered a 1 year contract and told he'd have minimal opportunities. He didn't leave for dollars.

He left for sense.

Meth Coast for years have had a philosophy of not giving away trade picks, they will not give away their first pick for Wellingham!

Agreed, also West Coast do not need another midfield type player.. with players like Gaff, Shuey, Embley, Rosa,Kerr still going, Masten starting to deliver, Priddis and Scott Selwood. There is a very long shot they are going to give away a pick.

That is true, although I'm sure that with the free agent period open I'm sure other discussions can be happening. IIRC Carlton and Melbourne agreed to the McLean trade before the official opening of trade week.

I think that pick 13 is overs for Welligham and I would rather chance our luck in the draft. I actually think that pick 17 is overs as well, but, due to West Coast being on the verge of a flag, they can afford to pay a bit too much for a ready-made top up instead of waiting a couple of years for a kid to come on, a luxury we can afford.

You have got to be kidding.

You have said this on the 1st day of FA and a week before Trade Week starts...

WTF.

lol your hilarious...

They actually said they would leave no stone unturned in reference to FA...so not sure why you are referring to trade week.

I guess simpletons do get confused easily...though in your defense this thread is about Wellingham who isn't a FA so I will have a whinge about or lack of action so far in FA in a more relevant thread.

Dan Richardson (Byrnes manager) said he is leaving Geelong and it's well documented that Melbourne are very keen so I wouldn't expect any issues for Shannon.

Cant agree with that - he is a worthy pick 13 and unlike a draftee he has proven he has speed, spread and ball smarts. Our luck with drafte choices hasnt been great for mine. He is worth the coin.

I heard that Shannon Byrnes is staying as well but someone else posted on a facebook page that he is definately signing with the dees... Also heard rivers has lodged papers with Brisbane... its all happening and none of it good for us thus far...

Me confused. Has Byrnes manager said:

A - Shannon is staying at Geelong

or

B - Shannon would like to pursue options elsewhere

    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

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.
