The lack of faith in Cam 'Sausages' Pedersen disturbs me. Where is the love for this dashing rebounding defender?

But seriously Bruce would be worth a thought in the PSD. Best to probably play it cool and not let our interest bubble until the end of trade week if the deal doesn't happen with the saints.

That said the dogs must have some interest as well. I rate Talia, but Austin for back up and Roughead I'm not convinced on. I think they've got a mobile ruck/forward at full back when he should in the ruck/forward position!

That's a good list but that's not where value with PSD 2 is going to come from. Those delisted players can be picked up by anyone as delisted FA. The value comes in convincing someone who's required

We could just go another untried kid and pick up Dayle Garlett if he goes another national draft without being picked up. Emma Quayle doesn't seem to think there's any certainty on him being drafted despite the slim pickings this year.

I'd be very surprised if Garlett doesn't get picked up this year.. I'll actually be upset if he is still available in the PSD and we don't take him. Kid can play..

NDHsP... if he fits this profile, then no.

if he is team oriented then go for it?

Query. Can teams trade PSD picks like they do national draft picks? I don't recall it ever happening before.

And I'm a bit disappointed that no-one has suggested Liam Jurrah for the PSD. I thought it was compulsory that his name be suggested in any thread that discusses the PSD or rookie drafts.

What has Liam Jurrah shown since he was delisted to prove that he is worth a PSD pick or rookie draft. And dont say because he brought in the gates back in the past..

We may actaully not use it at all if they don't delist anymore senior players. We only have 3 senior spots and 1 rookie spot avaialble at the moment, so it may not even become an issue.

I'd be happy if the Polec trade fell through and picked him up in the PSD

tell him we are interested gauge his reaction of we did draft him in psd, start discussions with Brisbane (ie what would need to satisfy you) to take their eyes off other negotiations, bail at the last minute then pick him up you reckon?

Or simply start talking about usurping pa in their 14 for 2 picks by shopping around 9 for 2 picks. Disrupt their ability to get the picks to get him...

Article on AFL website citing Bruce to St Kilda is slow and there is a chance Bruce will go to the PSD.

Would be happy if we got this bloke.

"Saints or bust for disgruntled Giant Josh Bruce"

http://www.afl.com.au/news/2013-10-24/saints-or-bust-for-bruce

Yer but I doubt GWS would just let him go for nothing when Saints are offering a pick.

I think they are just playing chicken - GWS are probably saying something like: "if you don't give us something better Melbourne will probably pick him up with PSD pick 2"

Lets just hope they run out of time :lol: Even if that means Todd Viney has to do cartwheels in the AFL hub tomorrow to distract GWS and Saints.

Nah but seriously is there anyone better in the PSD or would we go for him with pick 2? Guess we have to wait until the main draft is done.

Josh Bruce said he is willing to go in the PSD for St. Kilda if it comes down to it, why not steal him from under their nose?

Good backman insurance.

It shouldn't take to much effort to explain to him that it would be kind of stupid to jump of a 5 star cruiser onto a sinking refugee boat.

We are no 5 star cruiser but at least we are floating.

I could see Bruce going to the PSD.

St Kilda won't offer better, and GWS don't want that pick because they won't use it.

GWS are likely to then take the opportunity to take a stand to set an example to the others.

Can't set the precedent they'll fold and take whatever they can get every time a player wants out.

If that happens, it depends on what his terms are, but I'd take him and risk him being initially [censored] off.

When we played GWS the 2nd time this year, he was clearly the most impressive GWS player that day, to my eyes.

He kept popping up taking contested intercept marks in our forward line.

I had no idea who he was up to that point.

I also thought he was shorter, but 197cm is a very good size for a defender.

If we take him, I really wouldn't be surprised to see him unseat a bloke like McDonald if he can't get his disposal sorted out.

At worst he'd be quality depth.

Rumours that bulldogs may try and pick up gws midfielder in the psd.

Now as we have a pick before the doggies, should we look at him?

Is he any good? I know we need mids and more mids but I have no idea if this kid can play!?

who?

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.
