The Trade/Draft Rumour Mill

i feel like Roos is going to be talking to alot of players come this next few months.

My guess though that instead of speaking to duds like Gillies and Sellar he will be talking to real AFL players.

Dusty Martin in a Melbourne jumper next year?

We are leading the race :)

Should we be wearing the yellow jumper then?

I believe Paul Roos is currently in WA talking with Fremantle's Viv Michie. Victorian boy who has had a few injuries and can't break into their midfield (Barlow, Mundy and Fyfe). Would be a great get if true.

Was that not Paul Roos I saw On The Couch last night at the Exhibition Building in Carlton?

If Roos convinces any two players amongst Sloane, Martin, D.Swallow, S.Selwood, Shuey and or Rockliff to come to the Dees for 2014 I will buy myself the newest and latest Gillette razor, have a clean shave and then walk into the Melbourne FC and sign my partner up as a member (I'm already a member, I converted her a couple years ago, but will have to sign her up at some point).

Ashley Smith of the WCE has been offered to Victorian clubs by his management. Home sick, has his girlfriend located in Melbourne and feels due a freshen up.

do you know which club?

all I know is that he is a very quick half back.

Have heard a whisper that a 3 way deal between us, Tigers and GWS might be in the gun! GWS would get Martin but Richmond not happy with pick offered. We come in with Pick 2 and we get Taylor Adams and a lower pick. Other picks swapped between all parties! Hmmm....

Only thing I have heard is we are interested but Mr Roos is casting the net far and wide so expect some surprises!

Is Taylor Adams worth this?

I don't know much about him tbh.

He's not worth pick 2 , GWS would have to offer more, I think Roos and co are astute enough to make sure we get what is best for the club. As a side, I heard Terry Wallace talk up a guy Lambert from the VFL anyone know about him

He's captain of the Northern Blues, i think he's alright but personally i have watched him play a few times and he reminds me a little bit of a few boys on our list, he would dominate at VFL level but struggle at AFL level, would be surprised if we draft him,

if GWS gave us Adams and pick 10 i'd be pretty happy.

Useless player to us IMO. We need mids, not more flankers!

I hope your right... I'd love for us to turn our Pick2 into two top-end tough players. Adams already has a couple of season under the AFL belt. & I'd love to get young Crouch from the draft with another pick?

If we were to trade pick 2, then being in a position to pick up Crouch would work for me.

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,

    GALLANT by KC from Casey

    The world “gallant” is not one that is readily acceptable to losing teams in our game of football so when it was used in the context of the Casey Demons’ loss to Sandringham in yesterday’s match at Casey Fields, it left a bitter taste in the mouth.  The Demons went into the game against the St Kilda affiliated Zebras with the advantage of playing on their home turf (not that this has been a major asset in 2024) and with very little else going in their favour. The Saints have close to a full
