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.

    Nice delivery that went straight through to the keeper

    The main thing is that West Coast are offering pick 17. ( if thats even true)

    we have pick 13 and more money than West Coast..

    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.

    According to Trade Week Radio the MFC will hit the Wellingham chase hard as soon as he returns from Perth.

    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

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?

    • PREVIEW: Geelong

      "It's officially time for some alarm bells. I'm concerned about the lack of impact from their best players." This comment about one of the teams contesting this Friday night’s game came earlier in the week from a so-called expert radio commentator by the name of Kane Cornes. He wasn’t referring to the Melbourne Football Club but rather, this week’s home side, Geelong.The Cats are purring along with 1 win and 2 defeats and a percentage of 126.2 (courtesy of a big win at GMHBA Stadium in Round 1 vs Fremantle) which is one win more than Melbourne and double the percentage so I guess that, in the case of the Demons, its not just alarm bells, but distress signals. But don’t rely on me. Listen to Cornes who said this week about Melbourne:- “They can’t run. If you can’t run at speed and get out of the contest then you’re in trouble.

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit.
      Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      For a brief period of time in the early afternoon of yesterday, the Casey Demons occupied top place on the Smithy’s VFL table. This was only made possible by virtue of the fact that the team was the only one in this crazy competition to have played twice and it’s 1½ wins gave it an unassailable lead on the other 20 teams, some of who had yet to play a game.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      In my all-time nightmare game, the team is so ill-disciplined that it concedes its first two goals with the courtesy of not one, but two, fifty metre penalties while opening its own scoring with four behinds in a row and losing a talented youngster with good decision-making skills and a lethal left foot kick, subbed off in the first quarter with what looks like a bad knee injury.
