Bernie Vince for Col....Bernie won the B & F in 2011...28y/o 3 good years maybe 4 in him

Would be a solid deal imo, regardless of what Denham said this morning.

    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 :)

    And presumably if greater than pick 25, crows won't be in it.

    then they have a problem. Vince presumably doesn't want GWS. And next year he is a free agent, and can walk.

    We might yet get him for a 30s pick.

    Adelaide list manager (name alludes me) just said on trade radio that its pretty much guaranteed that Vince will be traded, both parties have come to terms with it, said that if not us there is others interested.

    Josh Mahoney pretty much confirmed if we get the pick that satisfies Adelaide then we get Vince.

    only thing is the word IF. Given last years Net result of zero draft picks for Moloney and Rivers out with Byrnes etc in, Im not confident.

    What is its a late second rounder, thrid rounder ?

    According to Jon Ralph on twitter we are unlikely to get the pick after our second pick and instead get the pick after our 3rd. Sounds like a rort to me if the saints get a pick after their second for Dal Santo

    According to me Jon Ralph is another goose that gets paid to be constantly wrong.

    Haha yep. But journo's have been consistently right when it comes to Melbourne getting screwed of late. Time for that to change

    Very happy we got something decent (pick 23) to seal the deal with the Crows to get Bernie Vince

    Our midfeild is actually starting to look alot more competitive now

    Bernie Vince for Col Sylvia, we've definitely come out ahead IMO.

    If we manage to land Cross (still on the market?) as well then we will have achieved almost a complete midfield transplant. Very pleased with the trade period.

    Hawks CEO Stewart Fox: "We believe it is inequitable that compensation is linked to ladder position". I'm sorry, but what a sickening human being. The Hawks front office has been a disgrace in regards to pushing the disequalisation agenda since becoming good again after a drought of irrelevance from 1992-2006. Yes, they've come out of free agency with the worst compensation scenarios the past two years, but if they can't see the bigger picture of the necessity of compensation being linked to ladder position to help lessen the effect of higher-finishing clubs picking the wings off cellar-dwellers year after year, then they're either dumb or incredibly selfish with scant regard for the future good of the competition. And I doubt they got where they are by being dumb.

    Anyway, with that off my chest, it's a good and fair result for the MFC!

    While your at it Bernie can you bring Tex Walker with you?

    Not too much to ask for mate.

    Walker? I'd rather Dangerfield.

    You know what, it's fair... Which surprises everyone just as much.

    • 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.
