WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - BERNIE VINCE


Ted Lasso

Recommended Posts

Ive always thought Sylvia would be band 4 but theres every possibility in the arbitrary formula and thinking of Vlad inc that we might yet still snag pick 23 ( or whatever).

I think the club already knows the compo's value. my gut feeling (or last nights curry )

I'm tipping that the pick 20 that we just gave GWS, will get used by them to trade for Bernie Vince.

Seeing it's also looking like we won't get a 20-25 pick for Sylvia.

It's not looking any more like that now than it was when Sylvia first went.

Assume you're talking about the Sylvia Compo? If so I agree based on Sylvia's actual value

Just basing it off Viney's suggestion of a compo attached to our now departed pick 20, and Adelaide's demands of a pick not less than 25 for Vince and a rumoured agreement between Adelaide & us reported today

The compo pick wasn't "attached" to our pick 20. The offloading of pick 20 has no bearing on where our compo pick will be.

Sylvia compo headed Crows' way Melbourne has agreed to trade the compensation pick it received for losing free agent Colin Sylvia to Adelaide in exchange for midfielder Bernie Vince, says The Advertiser. The pick is expected to fall at the start of the second round of the NAB AFL Draft, perhaps immediately after the Demons pick No. 20. If the pick is lower than 25, the Crows will, reportedly, accept the trade.

I believe based on the above the DEAL is done Regardless

Welcome Bernie Vince to the MFC :)

Perhaps a small misunderstanding here .

I know that - it was a suggestion that Viney made about what the club were hoping for band wise in compo for Sylvia.

My logic....We could have used p20 on Vince, now GWS has it, they are rumoured to be into him, and we don't have a high enough pick in the right range to satisfy Adelaide anymore (pick only)

The article says Adelaide will accept a deal IF the pick is lower than 25, which I assume to mean better than 25.

You sound confident, I hope you're right

Wouldn't want pick 9 involved

The trade agreement is for The pick we receive as compensation for the Loss of Sylvia

The agreement also says if the pick is lower than 25 they will still accept the deal

Pick 1 through to 25 are Higher picks than 25-30 etc

Therefore anything after pick 25 is a lower pick that is at least the way I understand it

and they have agreed to accept that regardless

This is a official post on the AFL website so I am fairly confident its a done deal .

If its not then blame Harry Thring not me :)

If we get a 21-25 pick for Sylvia....the AFL is Santa Claus and Christmas will come early this year for the Dees.

I am not saying we will, I am saying it will make no difference , it may be pick 38 but the agreement says the Crows will accept it regardless

Oh well time will tell anyway , but as far as the MFC is concerned at the Moment with Roos and his Crew , I am happy as .............well you know :)

Jeez Harry you better be Right or they will string me up here :lol::lol:

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an
