Patrick Dangerfield

Born: April 5, 1990 (age 23), Geelong

Height: 1.88 m

He wasn't on the list that I commented on.

...but if you start a new list I don't think you would need to get past this one before giving them pick 2 and making a run for it to get the papers registered before they realise the mistake.

My money would be on pick 2 heading to the GCS for Swallow.

He fits the criteria Mahoney was referring to.

A former #1 pick who may not have set the world on fire, but has 3-4 years of fast-tracked development at the Suns. Ready to go.

I think the Suns would probably agree to it too.

As a half back flanker!

The other scenarios is that Aish plays a blinder in the Sanfl GF and we just hope GWS don't pick him up. I still feel there may be something very special about this kid.

He'd be ready to move into the midfield now then.

Haven't GWS got enough midfielders?

Seems they've got enough of everything.

Seems they've got enough of everything.

Except experienced talent and/or marquee player(s).

I wonder if the three mid tier midfielders that I was told we are chasing are Shiel and Savage as well as Levi Greenwood? No idea, just heard about three are wanted.

Could Aish really slot into the midfield? My understanding is he isn't built like a midfielder. I just don't get the endless stocking up on defenders and forwards when there is a desert in between them that G Healy described as the worst midfield he has ever seen (as in from any club, ever)...

I haven't heard anything about Shuey but Im liking what im reading here.

Also reported on several facebook pages that Col is over in WA talking either Freo or West Coast - youd assume as a top up for Freo for another flag tilt due to his age? Free agency is a [censored] for the lower clubs I reckon...

Sorry when I said Roos I meant our coach

well...seems like we're playing for real

Reading between the lines (Mahoney interview) it seems like we may be entertaining giving up our first and second round picks for two players. Either from one team or two different teams. Plus possibly some later picks in return.

If we were to give up our first two picks to one team for two players which of these scenarios would suit us more?

Gold Coast - Prestia and Swallow + swaps of later picks.

(Prestia just re signed before the Roos appointment but was rumoured to have been wanting to return to Melbourne earlier in the season)

Or

West Coast - Gaff and Shuey + swaps of later picks

Or simply straight swaps with picks

(I know it is of little consequence these days but all of Prestia, Gaff and Shuey followed the Dees as kids.)

You'd like to believe there is at least one idealist out there playing AFL. Maybe im being naïve but surely the ultimate dream would be to bring your childhood team some success?

I wonder what possessed them to do so ??

One day supporters will realise that who a player supported as a child means zero once they've been on another clubs list. Absolutely zero. Not even 1%. Zilch.

Pining for Prestia because he loved Melbourne as a kid is as worthwhile as pining for the girl you had on your wall when you were 15.

EDIT: I had Samantha Fox. Turned lesbian a number of years back - not that there's anything wrong with that.

Thank you Kate Upton.

Don't mention it.

this season, of these 2 scenarios.... Gaff & Shuey please.

we'll revisit Dion in the future.

Thank you Kate Upton.

Dont you mean "Trav 20"?

GWS may want pick 2 for Scharenberg ( Boyd at #1). They have plenty of mids. Dylan Shiel for pick 2.

Thank you Kate Upton.

Don't mention it.

Oops. Should have read 'Thank you, I had Kate Upton'.

GWS may want pick 2 for Scharenberg ( Boyd at #1). They have plenty of mids. Dylan Shiel for pick 2.

GWS really want experienced quality players. I think they would dearly love to trade pick 1 and if they got pick 2 would like to trade that as well. Now they don't have Buddy, they desperately need more experience. Hence Mummy.

That is why I said it is of little consequence.

I had S.Fox too. Her being a lesbian would have been of little consequence too incidentally.

Just read this on the "Good Call / Bad Call" Facebook Page..

GWS have offered Nic Nat $8 million over 6 years in exchange for pick 1, Jon Patton and Rhys Palmer. WCE believed to have agreed.

Luke Shuey and a player for Pick 2 is what I'm hearing.

Source is going to give us a buzz in about 10mins and fill me in with all that he knows. Will post here straight away.

I'd take that in a heartbeat if that eventuates. I'd like WCE to throw in Matt Rosa aswell. Shuey barracked for us as a kid. Wants to comeback to Melbourne.

Get excited people. The kid is a gun.

Sylvia gone aswell.

Has had a few issues with his groin and hamstrings I assume they are ok now.
