Of course we'd be "into" Conca.

There wouldn't be a decent young midfielder we're not courting. Getting players over the line will be the hard part.

Agree. Tigers would want overs in a trade, as they would feel hurt and would need to act tough for members.

PSD would be our bargaining chip.

if GWS get Buddy, spending the rest of their $40m salary cap and Conca says it is here or back home only, then GWS may not be in a position to spoil the party. Of course a deal for say Adams and Miles could make this a certainty as well from their point of view.

The major problem will be getting Conca to say I am off to the Dees.

    Gee I'd love him on our list but that definitely seems too much. 450k a year is huge. We still need to have enough cap to target players such as Adams, Selwood and Swallow.

    They paid Davey $440000 per year!

    Was just about to say that.

    Davey would have freed up a lot of space but that does not mean we should go and make ridiculous offers.

    However considering we have cap room and will need to pay above market price for players - I guess we can front load contracts (like Clark).

    If we can get some good players into the club and show some real improvement next year we won't have to pay overs.

    This is where we sit Swallow, Adams, Conca and Cross in a room together, tell them they can earn decent coin and together form a decent midfield instantly. The key positions are in place for them.

    Add those four to Nath Jones, Viney, Sylvia, Matt Jones, and hopefully emerging players like Toumpas, Kent, et al then all of a sudden we will have a midfield that is somewhat competitive.

    if we land those 4 we will win 16 games

    If we land 2-3 of the above we may still win 16 games, bearing in mind that there are still other positions on the list that Roos will fill astutely.

    So you are saying that if we got Adams and Cross we might be able to win 16 games. Wow.

    Get Conca, right age, right skill set.

    Richmond have stated they will be looking to bolster their ruck stocks, Jamar and 2nd round pick (19 or possibly priority pick 18) could get this deal done

    Source please? Enough with the hearsay

    Heard from one of my customers who is a huge financial backer of the Tigers. However with Martin going it will come to nothing!

  • Quote

    Conca will stay as Martin is now leaving.

    We could still get them to pay overs. Let Dusty go to GWS and Adams can come to us in PSD to zilch.

    Sorry precious but hate to point out a fact to you, but to say everyone is creaming our pants about him is just ridiculous, the thread is probably a month old, see much activity for him??

    I started the thread, show me where I am disappointed or critical of Trenners.

    As is so often the case the hero that jumps in and makes broad generalisations just makes himself look like a moron...

    Actually that wasn't what I was saying [as you no doubt are aware]! I was referring to three if Cross was one and if Conca stays with the Tigers, I guess that is the same total of who we may be able to entice

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.
