Who is better for us Adams or Sheil?

I like that Adams gets more of the ball, we just don't have mids that can get over 20 touches each game. Sheil seems in the mould of our current mids that get it 20 times. Still I'm sue that will increase as he matures.

I thought he had just signed a contract though?

 

Would love to get Shiel to the demons over Adams. He will be a gun and when I heard he wants back to Victoria I thought pick 2 straight away! I hope we offer him abit of cash!

 

Shiel was a 17 to pre selection, would have been a strong contender for pick 1 if he went to the draft. Is trade pick 2, he could be absolute top shelf.


If shiel came to us, GWS will want an experienced top line player for him.....Not a pick .....They need experienced players

So who would you trade out to get him????

Pick 2 and Jamar?

If that won't cut it throw in Dunn too!

I meant realistic ones.....They are tying to get rid of pick one.....Why would they want pick 2??.......They won't take Jamar.......

 

We should offer both Shiel and Adams 400k plus each, both 3 year deals.

Offer them way overs, these two players would be massive for our future.

To trade it! Picks 1 and 2 are gold this year.

Given the chance, sides will jump at the prospect of either pick.

If we give them pick 2 for Shiel, then they could trade that pick for a player.

The only problem for the GWS is that it's starting to look like no one wants to play there.

So that might be there biggest hurdle, but ... Money talks.

No doubt, I agree..

I'd offer Shiel that anyway, he is worth it, the kid killed it this year and just tapered off late.

Shiel is the Fyfe from 2 years ago - just ready to push into the elite bracket.

If we could get Shiel, we'd be laughing.

It would be amazing if we could somehow snare Shiel, Adams and Rockliff, or just 2 of them.

Think about what GWS would get for either Shiel or Adams from other clubs wanting them.

Pick 2 for both would be the best possible result they could get.

We could even chuck in Jamar or pick 30 odd as a sweetener.

But it'd be pick 2 for the 2 players, not one of them.

Adams may not have spoken to us yet, but GWS would twist his arm if he wants to get home and they want to be compensated properly.

Pick 2, no questions asked. Gut running hard at it mid with a beautiful left peg. Capable playing inside and out. Exactly what we need and ready to go. No brainer for mine.

I'd do pick 2 for Shiel and pick 10.

Pick 2, pick 20 and Jamar

For

Shiel, Adams and pick 10

That's about a reasonable trade.

I'd consider adding Fitzy instead of Jamar to get the deal over the line, if need be.

They won't give up pick 10.

We'd be bending to take it without 10, but we would.

I wouldn't be against 2,20 and Jamar for Shiel and Adams.

Pick 2, pick 20 and Sylvia

For

Shiel, Adams and Pick 10 might work though.


Melbourne supporter too. Not that it means anything...

I'd want it to slightly be in our favour.

I just rate Aish as the 2nd coming of Trent Cotchin, and to give that up we'd want to get something bloody good in return.

2 for Adams and Shiel would be a good result.

2 + Jamar for Adams, Shiel and 10 would be a great result.

Players at GWS are starting to get itchy feet. Most of them come from “winning” teams as juniors and getting belted most weeks aren’t fun. GWS have been talking up trading pick 1 to get a class/mature player in. They have talked about getting Buddy all year and I believe they were smug enough to think they had him. I think they then thought that might enable them to get another half back flanker and another mature ruckman. But so far there isn’t much talk of people wanting to go there. Could make for a bit of exodus – so rumour of Shiel wanting out makes enough sense.


All this Jamar talk, he is a servant of the club, and will never get to the heights of his AA form again.

I reckon they would be more interested in a guy like Fitzy.

We can't just offload crap players.

I wonder if Shiel and Adams are good pals? Would be good if they decided to both come to the Demons.

Trade for Shiels, Pick 2 and Fitzy for Shiel and 10.

Then have Adams go through to the PSD.

Love that Shiel was a Melbourne supporter growing up

Have you read half the threads on here? Apparently we can, and get some pretty sweet deals in return!

I'd b. happy with if it was Jamar nt Fitzy.
 

I’d read that Shiel and Treloar were both Blues fans.

Here’s a profile for Dylan when prior to pre-selection by GWS. His bottom age season in the TAC Cup was 2010 I believe, and was generally compared to Judd.

Height: 180cm
Weight: 81kg
DOB: 9/03/1993
Recruited from: Dandenong Stingrays/Caulfield Grammar/Edithvale-Aspendale
Bio: Shiel is a classy onballer who assured his place on GWS Giants list with an eight goal performance from the midfield whilst playing school football for Caulfield Grammar against Haileybury College on a wet Saturday in June 2010. In 2009 at the NAB AFL Under16 Championships, all his averages were elite 20 disposals per match at 78% efficiency, eight handball receives, seven ground ball gets and three clearances. He also broke the lines more than any other player. For Dandenong at TAC Cup level in 2010 he played seven matches with his averages again all elite, recording 30 disposals, 10 handball receives and 12 groundball gets per match. His 13 contested possessions per match also ranked number one in the competition.

Adams clearly doesn't want to play for Melbourne, and Shiel is still contracted. Let's try and be just a tad realistic.

  • NON-MFC: Round 09

    Round 9 kicks off out west with the Dockers hosting a Collingwood side resting several stars. Fremantle need to make a statement on their home deck after some disappointing form on the road, while the Magpies will be keen to maintain their Top 2 position. Friday night sees a must-win clash between two sides desperate to stay in touch with the eight. St Kilda have shown glimpses while Carlton are clinging to relevance after a flat start to the season. Saturday’s twilight game at Marvel pits the Bombers against a struggling Sydney outfit. Essendon can’t afford another close match against a lower-ranked side, while the Swans risk sliding down the ladder even further. Up in Darwin, the fourth-placed Suns will look to extend their stay in the top four. The Bulldogs have hit their stride with three big wins on the trot and will be very keen to consolidate on their momentum. The always fiery Showdown looms as pivotal for both clubs. Adelaide are eyeing a spot in the Top 4 with a win, while Port Adelaide’s season could slip away if they drop another game and fall further behind the pack. Sunday begins with a yawn fest between Richmond and West Coast. The Tigers need to bank the points to stay clear of the bottom two, while the Eagles are still chasing their first win of the year. The Giants face one of the league’s toughest road trips as they travel to GMHBA Stadium to face the Cats. With GWS at risk of a third straight loss, Geelong will be eager to consolidate their position inside the eight and start their climb up the ladder. The round wraps up with the top-of-the-table Lions heading to Ninja Stadium to take on the second-last Roos. The Lions should easily take care of the struggling Roos who might be powerless against the best in the comp. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

    Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front. They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

  • REPORT: West Coast

    On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.
