    Knowing our luck compo pick will be after our first rounder now.

    Pick 3 for Vince. Aish to Crows

    What time this afternoon will the title of this thread change?

    So what happens if we get pick 38 for Sylvia compo and Adelaide say "nup not good enough?"

    Could we potentially chuck a player at them instead or as well as?

    Pick 38, Tapscott for Vince and Lyons?

    Just spit ballin' here.

    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 )

    Silvia Comp + pick 36 = Vince+Lyons

  • Quote

    If the club was dead keen on Vince and didn't know what compo they were getting for Sylvia, surely they'd have waited until after 5pm today to enter into a trade with GWS.

    Vince might cost us for picks 37 and 38(Sylvia compo) with the crows third round pick to us.

  • Quote

    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

  • Quote

    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

    at least that is the way I understand it maybe someone can ask the MFC :blink:

    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:

    Surely the AFL is aware that if we don't get the players that will make us competitive there won't be enough bums on seats when we play?

    • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
