Interesting link on SEN website on the Dee's.(sorry , don't know how to add links) David Swallow and Sloane mentioned. Don't agree with the whole article but good to see we're on the front foot.

Highlight and copy the URL on the site page you would like to link and on the DL post options above the text box click the chain just under the size option.

A little box will pop up and paste the URL in the URL section and click ok.

If you want to get a bit fancy you can type some thing like an article title "Essendon supplements crisis: live updates", highlight the text (title), then click the chain link button under the size option, past the URL as usual, click ok and presto it will link the text with the page.

In a heartbeat.....

 

Hell the Crows can have pick 2 and a player for Sloane. There is nearly not a single player in the league I'd rather have than him. Heart and soul type guy, courageous, huge tank, skilful. He would be a massive get


Hypothetical -

if we are given a PP after our 1st pick, meaning we got picks 2 and 3....

Would you trade both those picks to get back both David Swallow and Rory Sloane?

Without hesitation

 

No way is Swallow worth Watts and pick 2. That would be just about enough for me to walk away.

What about pick 2 and Fitzy?

What about just pick 2?

If we could work it, sure!

I just don't think Swallow is worth more than that. In fact I'd say pick 2 is paying overs given he's not really setting the world on fire up there. Maybe a straight swap for Watts would work instead then we could still use pick 2 on Sloan.


Sloane is not going anywhere. Funny a few weeks ago some on here didn't think he was worth a first round pick, amazing what the game on the weekend has done to his value on Demonland.

Two things amaze me about some of the posts.

People think star players would want to come to us and that their clubs would clear them.

I like it. Watts for Swallow, pick 2 and Sylvia for Sloane. Crows get 2 years out if Col while they get their hometown boy from the draft.

While I sometimes think the same we should have plenty of money to throw around. Davey is 500k for starters.

I think his paper was fairly front loaded. Might not have quite as much to add to the kitty.

Fair enough, but as I've always wondered besides Mitch, Dawes and Frawley where is our cap going?

Just want to say Rory Sloane would be almost the best young player to get to change our culture around at the club.

I used to work for the Eastern Ranges when he was the captain of its U/18 squad and he was that one player that everyone would do anything for. Every person who met him was blown away with his personality. He is the nice guy who finishes first.

They say we have no leaders, get him and we have an amazing leader. I personally don't see Adelaide giving him up for anything, but if there was a chance..

Silvia is a FA. Not trade bait, as I understand it.

 

Geeze the ways the Crows football manager carries on about Sloane you'd think he was Gary Ablett. "if we gave away Rory for the No. 1 draft pick or whatever it happened to be, I’d just about quit the game" :huh:

He's a quality player, and I'd love him in red and blue, but Pick 2 would be more than fair.

Thanks for the heads up.

It has been a rarity for ch 7 to play 2 Radelaide home games in succession. So many of there list fly under the radar.

    The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.

  • GAMEDAY: Geelong

    It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?

  • PREVIEW: Geelong

    "It's officially time for some alarm bells. I'm concerned about the lack of impact from their best players." This comment about one of the teams contesting this Friday night’s game came earlier in the week from a so-called expert radio commentator by the name of Kane Cornes. He wasn’t referring to the Melbourne Football Club but rather, this week’s home side, Geelong.The Cats are purring along with 1 win and 2 defeats and a percentage of 126.2 (courtesy of a big win at GMHBA Stadium in Round 1 vs Fremantle) which is one win more than Melbourne and double the percentage so I guess that, in the case of the Demons, its not just alarm bells, but distress signals. But don’t rely on me. Listen to Cornes who said this week about Melbourne:- “They can’t run. If you can’t run at speed and get out of the contest then you’re in trouble.
