WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - JESSE HOGAN

[olisik 4,060]

Saints get Tom Lee, Claremont forward and picks 24 and 43 for pick 12. Final GWS prelisted trade.

Pick 24....Isnt the pick we had hoped to get?

And the pick that was trumping us for Caddy!

Harrington just told Trade radio that he is positive a deal will be done with GWS re Hogan....

Tim Harrington just on trade radio and confirming our interest

I'd assume this means that Dawes will go to the Bulldogs or Crows.

Dawes has said he doesnt want to move interstate as he has study here in melbourne

plus if we get pick 20 back from GWS as part of the deal we could use that

[Jesse Christ 2,884]

If they want both pick 3 and 13 I would say "Thats cool, we'll use pick 3 on Toumpas and 13 on Dawes"

I would be happy with Toumpas, Viney and Wines in midfield with Dawes to fill a gap for a few years until we can find the next Hogan which is attainable

That would be fine too. I would be unhappy about missing out on Hogan but the whole point of the exercise for me is that we don't get screwed, and I now believe we won't.

All we can go by is the price for MD1 has been set and we now know what the appropriate remuneration is for MD2- (a hint- it's less than 2 picks in the top 15)

That GWS 2nd round pick has gone to the Saints so this is no longer feasible. (The pick 20 part)

Harrington just told Trade radio that he is positive a deal will be done with GWS re Hogan....

Only a blindside will result in us not getting Hogan. If both Sos & Harrington are positive, it looks like they might just be waiting for a few deals e.g. Dawes/Ray etc to fall into place before committing.

Great day for the MFC though - probably the best I've felt since we belted Sydney a few season ago!

just heard that too with pick 12

[Jesse Christ 2,884]

Stuff it, I've made up my mind-

They either take #3 for Hogan and nothing else- or we just take Grundy with #3 and trade Martin for Dawes.

How do you like them apples?

GWS will take Grundy with pick 2.

If we can snare Hogan I'd lose any enthusiasm for Dawes.

How about 3 for Hogan and Jed Anderson who GWS control?

[olisik 4,060]

#3 Hogan

#4 Wines

#13 Garlett/Kennedy

#26 Viney

Gysberts/Martin for Wellingham/Dawes combo (Any of these works for me)

[olisik 4,060]

How about 3 for Hogan and Jed Anderson who GWS control?

I like this...alot

[Jesse Christ 2,884]

will they? that's [censored]..

Pick #3 and a hand-breaking handshake will do for Hogan than. Next.

[Dr. Gonzo 23,888]

TWR just said can't use pick 4 for MD because it's a compo pick but this would almost certainly have to be wrong. Can't use it for FS but why would there be any restrictions on trades? Particularly since there's been rumours of Dogs using their compo pick (pick 6).

[MadAsHell 4,209]

That GWS 2nd round pick has gone to the Saints so this is no longer feasible. (The pick 20 part)

Nope. They traded pick 24 (2nd round) to St. Kilda. Pick 20 (compo pick from Adelaide traded back to them last year) is still there to be used.

[Born to Run 204]

If GWS now have pick 12 as well, they must be willing to trade away a few picks later in the draft as they cant have all these players come onto their list.

What picks do they have left to give away - anything that we can demand if they are hell bent on getting a certain player at #3.

[old55 22,996]

The deal with GWS for Hogan needs to appear to be a long protracted tough negotiation.

[Fat Tony 5,183]

If we trade pick 3 instead of pick 4 there must have been an agreement re Viney. Hopefully not and we Get Viney, Toumpas, Hogan and keep #14

[olisik 4,060]

Nope. They traded pick 24 (2nd round) to St. Kilda. Pick 20 (compo pick from Adelaide traded back to them last year) is still there to be used.

God dam GWS have alot to play with. Thanks for the correction. Good to hear pick 20 still in play.

[DemonTux 95]

4 and 13 for hogan and 12 sound any good?

[Jordie_tackles 354]

Nope. They traded pick 24 (2nd round) to St. Kilda. Pick 20 (compo pick from Adelaide traded back to them last year) is still there to be used.

Correct beat me too it,

Pick 24 is the first second round pick,

Pick 20 is the one tied to Adelaides finishing position.

ALL OURS

I'm resigned too missing out on Grundy! I don't think he is in MFC plans. I think he may go Pick 2.

I would trade Pick 4 & a player for Hogan. If we pass on Hogan, I'm still hopeful of Grundy at 3.

I can see Hogan a Dee though!
