FAREWELL STEFAN MARTIN - SEPTEMBER 2012

[beelzebub 23,390]

Must be more to hsppen me thinks. Ain't over yet lol

[Lord Travis 10,805]

Another sh*t trade. You can easily extract more value out of a 200+ agile big man, even if he isn't very good. Poor end to an average Trading period.

[olisik 4,060]

Oli, are you bitter that some of your predicted 14-Club trades didn't come to fruition, and in turn, wasted all that time you spent thinking up such deals?

Aye

[Steamin Demon 401]

Nothing yet

[GIRO 63]

What picks do we have now ? I'm lost

[Adam The God 30,645]

Alright, here is the source: AFL Twitter - Melbourne involved in another trade. RT @AFL_petryan: Stefan Martin deal done. To Lions for picks 53 and 73.#AFLTrades

I'd say pick 53 for Ray should be enough. Might have to throw in a Bennell though.

JAMES HIRD SELECTION 79

[The Chazz 4,077]

What picks do we have now ? I'm lost

71, 74, 75, 78, 85, 88, 92, 105

[Lucifers Hero 40,578]

What picks do we have now ? I'm lost

4, 49 and rubbish

[Lord Travis 10,805]

Probably upgrade one/some of Evans, Magner, Couch, Nicholson.

Because they'll take us places! They'll all be delisted in 2 years time, if not now, and wouldn't get a game at any other AFL club.

[The Chazz 4,077]

Well, whatever this place is that Morton and Gysberts have taken us can't get much worse can it?

[Sir Why You Little 37,342]

Always thought about 15 players would go. Looks like its happening.

Remember how BAD the team was in 2012 kids. And before that for 4-5 years.

MASSIVE CHANGES ARE HAPPENING....NOW.

[pantaloons 2,019]

The only way I can reconcile this trade is if it leads us to trading picks 49, 53, 70, 73, 74, 88, Bennell, Petterd and Bate to GWS for Pick 1.

[rpfc 28,967]

I can only assume that we are going to either trade some picks out or use 4, 49, 53, 63, and 73.

I am amazed at that.

Simply amazed.

Correct. 30 wins against 120 losses. Something had to give. Big time.

[dee-luded 2,959]

And it's much better planned than in recent years. In fact, the thing which

pleases me most is that their IS a plan.

I like the way we've aggressively tackled our objectives.

There is a seriousness about the new ways. to get things done.

[Jordie_tackles 354]

Magner is making a difference simply due to training harder than Morton and Gysberts, he is leading the way and is worth alot of $$$ imo simply to put pressure on and set teh standards which have been so lax at our club during the modern era

[Jonesbag 487]

Viney and Wines for Gysberts and Morton = Melbourne win

We got rid of players that hardly played this year. Stop whinging

[poita 3,929]

We spent a week haggling to get picks 53 and 73? FMD.

[MikeyJ 60]

We spent a week haggling to get picks 53 and 73? FMD.

We spent a week trying to get Stefan Martin off our list for something in return.

[Jesse Christ 2,884]

I saw no need for Martin, but 53 and 73.... wtf are we going to do with that?

Viva la re-build anyway, I'm all for it!

Could we be that lucky?

[dee-luded 2,959]

Thanks Steph, & wish you well.

Good luck with the Mane.

[Daz's Dee's 113]

We are expecting to upgrade 2, not 8

Seriously you are making me laugh out loud. Today has been a disaster for the footy club hope this Neeld fella knows what his doing.... Does anyone have any ideas which players mark Neeld didn't/doesn't like???

[jackaub 1,402]

So what picks do we have now any body have a clue ?

We have no 4 and ......
