The Trade/Draft Rumour Mill

Featured Replies

I think we should be working the Bombers and Adelide for a draft swap for a mid. Both clubs are desperate to get into the draft so lets leverage off that as a first option. Who would they cough up for a chance at pick 2 or 20? We are in a position to play hard ball.

 

I reckon if we attracted one mid we might be more likely to attract others for the right price ofcourse.

hmmn, it never reigns, but it paws?

Not sure I'd want anyone from Messendon unless they were cleared of potential suspensions.

 

It would be folly to do anything at all with Messendon. No telling what little extras might come along with those deals

hear this on the radio or was iit just the voices in your head?

This thread is for rumours.

It is pea brain comments like this that have led to posters like nudge/chilli boy and others to stop posting the rumours they heard.

Yes good point. We would need an absolute clean bill of health if that would be possible. Good heavens Dank seems to have been everywhere from the Bombers, MFC and every second club in the NRL!

Where is chilliboy these days anyway, wish he popped by to give us some (false) hope!

With that thought in mind, should we consider trading out Trenners before the AFL, ASADA and WADA get stuck into him? Don't want to, but I wonder if Messendon are thinking of a pre-banned player fire sale. I have absolutely no idea of Trenners supplement status, but I'm guessing the Club sure as he'll does.

 

You can scotch any notion of Roo leaving Seaford. He's staying put according to Ainter's website.

They were entertaining posts, even if only 10%came to fruition.

Sadly, he got sick of intellectual pygmy's attacking him for posting rumours so stopped...


No, that wasn't your point. If it was, you wouldn't/shouldn't have started going on about attitudes and elite running.

Gunston and Fyfe are two of the skinniest players in their respective sides. Your devotion to your sinking ship of an argument seems to be clouding your judgement on that.

And finally, as has been addressed, Morton's running was elite by AFL standards. His attitude was not, but his running was.

Actually if you have a closer look at Fyfe he has bulked up quite a bit; I was surprised over the final series to see how big his legs are, compared to lazy year. I was always under the impression that he was a bit skinny.

myers in the middle? OK thats my out of the square thinking.

I've really gotta get some fun back & start to freshen up. I'm getting stale as. losing interest.

I remember myers from the TAC cup, but now can't picture him.

thanks for the notes brey9186.

I doubt it he was drafted from Perth Demons and played PSA Footy for Wesley College from South Perth, some decent AFL players went to that school, Buddy, Gardiner, Cousins, Coughlan, Jarrad Schofield off the top of my head

Interesting collection of players 'Pennant'.

Also heard Taylor Adams thinks he's too good to be a Dee. I don't like him already... Unless he changes his mind...

Brent Prismall was the same if I recall correctly, didn't work out to well for him, Ben Jacobs from Port the same and hardly set the world on fire this season. Caddy finished the season strongly though. I am like you NSC whilst I understand they may not want to come, I dislike them for not even talking to us

Rubbish. Most people loved it. If one person dared say anything slightly negative he would crack the sads and said everyone was ungrateful. When it wasn't the case at all.


I remember that guy now. A little sensitive, he was.

??

Do I say most didn't enjoy it?

He copped a bit more than 'slightly negative posts' over the years, he couldn't handle it and stopped posting. Yes he was very sensitive, too much IMO, but not sure how that makes my post rubbish. Do tell?

Maybe thats why I can't remember him, I might be thinking of someone else?

I remember reading about him pre draft. back then studying the draftee forums to get info.

but have no recollection of him. so he's from WA? OK.

thanks for that PSD. so is he worth a look or not?

Gold.

Will be a very interesting trade period for us, for the first time in a long time I really have no idea who we are going to chase,

I hope we can land Rory Sloane for pick 2

ZaK jones for pick 20

Trade pick 38 for Viv Michie

Trade Mark Jamar for Anthony Miles

Sign Darren Jolly as a playing coach to groom Gawn into the gun I think he will be

Sign Daniel Cross because he is a perfect fit on and off field

look at Xavier Ellis as a free agent

and retain col!

So apart from Zac Jones, we'd be recruiting recycled players. Ellis has been around for zonks and hasn't performed. I'd trde Jamar, but I want an injection of quality youth esp as we have pick 2. I'd also look at Dale Garlett as a 2nd/3rd round pick.


I can confirm that jolly has been offered a spot on the list by Roos so the ball is in his court he is weighing up any other offers,

Source is a close friend of his

St Kilda are going to face a very long few years if they keep pushing senior players out the door like they are, Watters is as bad as Mark Neeld, he just took over a better list.

It's not Watters fault, it's Ross Lyons.

St Kilda should've off loaded Kosi, Dal Santo, Montagna after 2010 or 2011.

Now they are looking to off loaded them and getting nothing for them.

They can't even use the old one player one club excuse now.

Ross Lyon is a great game day coach, but his list management leaves little to be desired.

Yep, heard the same through a close connection of jolly. He is weighing up a one year offer with us versus a job offer in the 'real' world.

Our one year offer is not a lot of coin and I believe it unlikely he will accept and put himself through another pre season.

Gees this thread is long on opinion and low on actual rumours. Heaps of rumours swirling around today none of which seem to have appeared here.

1. Trade period doesn't start until Friday. Not a rumour.

2. Roos wants mids and a running defender.

3. Interest from Dees in Levi Greenwood

4. Pick 2 if not traded for Sloane which the club is still bullish on it will be traded for a group of second tier mids perhaps with sweatners.

5. Colin Sylvia all but ready to resign.

6. Roos wants players that can kick straight. Might spell trouble for Bail but Nicho will be a tagger next year.

7. Expect surprises...

8. Daisy still will be a blue.

And if we can't get Sloane, keep it for Aish or Scharenberg!

  • DRAFT: The Next Generation

    It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
