Would you be interested in any of these?

What are they worth?

 

We should be all over Taylor Adams.

Nineteen years old, averaging 21 disposals per game for GWS, a phenomenal effort considering their midfield is way less experienced than even ours and he gets zero protection.

Would gladly hand over our 2nd rounder (pick 20?) for him, but GWS would not take that.

Taylor Adams for sure. A similar type to Prestia and with a few pre seasons under his belt is showing what he is capable of

 

Swap Jamar for Adams.

GWS want a senior ruckman, we want midfielders.

Done.


3rd round, 5th round and 1st round(10-20)

I think Adams is most desired, the other two aren't really guys with a huge scope for improvement.

GWS are clearly targeting senior players this coming offseason, i think a player trade is more likely than a draft pick trade.

That's fair, I also forgot they have to cut their list size over the next year or 2. I wonder if they would take a fitzy, Dunn or Davis? Probably ask for gawn, hogan or frawley though won't they. I'd entertain Jordy, jamar, spencer or possibly blease or Strauss.

 

Sure if they'd come.

I'll prob get blasted for this comment, but I reckon bring shane tuck across for a year.

Can't get a game with the Tigers.

Clearance machine, mature body.

With our forward line next year, clearances and long bombs into the fwd line will be great for us.

Jamar doesn't upgrade them though, he's an older version of Giles. Big, cumbersome and can break even in the middle. I'm not sure he represents value to GWS. Certainly not the same value as Adams.

They'd probably rather a guy like Stef Martin who could've given them a more complimenting role. And they'll be looking for experience but I still think they'd prefer guys with at least a few years left rather than on their last legs. Pretty much the younger the better

Shhhhhhhhhhh!!! Don't tell them that! The rest of the comp still think Jamar is a gun...

You really think that? He's still worthy as an AFL player because he can compete and nullify most opposition ruckman. Not every club has 2 rucks who can do that hence why Collingwood got Hudson out of retirement. But thats about it.

Just my impression, but I think the rest of the league hasn't quite caught up yet to much he's struggling and still have the perception of him as a very good ruck.

They have Bellchambers in the bag 'stuie', put your money on it if you are a betting man.


Tay Adams is very keen to come back close to Geelong, but we'd have to offer a lot more than Jamar.

I think our 2nd round pick might get it done, but other teams will offer more.

Richard Douglas and Luke Shuey

Shuey's an interesting one. Do you know his contract status, tatu?

I'd be happy to offer our second and fifth round pick, and Jamar for Adams and their 4th round pick.

Sure if they'd come.

Tuck has been injured (shoulder) since round 7, on comeback trail now


Horsley = a slow overweight Magner with worse disposal. No thanks.

Offer them Spencer for Taylor! Win-Win!

Adams wants to return home to Geelong unfortunately. Wells will make it happen and the Cats' midfield rejuvenation will continue apace.

They are awesome.

No to Horseley and neither here nor there for Anthony.

 

This should be our "Kennedy/McGlyn" moment where we target midfielders on the verge, but being held back by a team that already has an abundance - Think Geelong, Sydney, Fremantle.

I would suggest we look at Horlin-Smith, Christensen, Bird, Parker, Moribato, Crozier, etc.

It doesn't matter if they are contracted, contracted players get traded as well. Work out what we need e.g. inside midfielders with 3 yrs development who are not getting the opportunity (in the midfield) their form/talent deseves and then chase them hard!

Next to no chance but Christensen and Parker would be nice.

  • REPORT: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
