Really I know I shouldn't do this to the less fortunate but from the Frawley thread Post #2045 which responded to your post of

Olisik

Average disposals 12 per game…..i wouldn't be giving anything higher then a 5th rounder for this kid

You look absolutely silly here.. why?

Daniel Talia who just won Adelaides best and fairest and in the All Australian 40 squad averages 11.8 disaposals per game this year. He played all 22 games.

I would happily give up first round draft pick.

and your response was

Olisik

He was taken in the rookie draft and you would want to give up pick 2 or 3 for him?

So I'm not making sh%t up nor deluded, you're just playing silly buggers or were to dumb to realise Dazzle was talking about Talia even though he actually named the player for you

I'll make a note not to listen to Olisik

Which player was the link about? Frost or Talia?

You need to just move on, the only poster people are judging is you, olisik.

You are the one that read it wrong, and the one with the terrible point about key defenders.

Slink away, don't attack.

 

Would pick 2 get you O'Rourke, Jaksch and Frost from GWS if you threw in say Blease, who is a good mate of the $7m man and/or a later pick.

Pick 2 would get them Petracca if Saints pass on him.

None of the GWS guys I named is a star but all could have good careers with us.

Problem could be if Saints took Petracca then GWS could take Brayshaw and 2 best mids are gone.

Trading for pick 3 if we get it, could solve that problem if we promised not to take Petracca.

Other possibility is if we get a PP even say at about 20 we could trade for O'Rourke and Frost and get a lower pick back.

That would leave higher picks to trade 1 and use the other in draft.

I agree with what you say, but the thing is even if we trade pick 3 and promise not to take petracca the possibility of saints taking him with 1 is still the same. GWS would have to somehow find out what the saints plans are first.

IF we are to trade pick 2, it has to be for a proven young gun, but who would want to risk trading a known quality for what is unknown- there would have to be some kind of go home factor involved.

I think trading pick 2 away is too risky for the reasons you outlined- we could miss out on both the gun midfielders. I think the move to make would be floating pick 3 for whoever wants a bite at one of the talls. Dogs or Blues may be interested in trade of a player and first round picks. Dogs have one go the lowest rankings for marks inside 50 in the legue.

Must hold on to 2 unless a trade involving a mid that's too good to refuse comes into play (unlikely). Pick 3 is the go for me.

Assuming we even get pick 3, that is

Rather than starting a seperate topic some tragic news coming out of Perth at the moment in regard to a player who was mentioned as a possible target for next season.

Anthony Morabito looks to have done his knee again, tragedy if true just couldn't get his body right

Feel for Morabito - doesn't seem fair when this happens to him and other players seem to take their careers for granted e.g Sylvia

His mentality strength must have hit an all new low for him now.

.... what?

Horrible news for Morabito, was going to be an absolute gun a few years back and now he may never play again. Just tragic.

Heard this a few minutes ago 'Pennant', how many times do you keep fronting up to rehab? He may have been a chance this weekend too depending on Ballantyne.

He looked the goods early on, can he keep going...who knows, hope something works out for him.

Proof read wouldn't go astray Daz!

Really feel for Morabito, but that's footy I suppose.

Latest report is no structural damage for Morabito, good to hear the kid needs a bit of luck

Surely we would be one of the clubs throwing the kitchen sink at Jake Carlisle.

Why not, if they want Clark seems like a good swap.

I would give them Clark and pick 3 if I had to, and pay Carlisle what he wants. He is bloody good and only going to get better.

I'd go down the road of the get out clause before offering anything up for him

Yep, I guess my point is more about them chasing Clark. Happy to get compensated for Clark and take Carlisle for nix.

Not sure where to put this, but:

Bit of news out of @melbournefc , they've put a lot of work into blease (pick 17), but I understand he wants a trade to @CarltonFC #afl

Thoughts? He was probably going to be delisted anyway, but would you be happy with a late pick or is there a (realistic) trade for a player we would go for IF this tweet turns out to be true?

We may get a half eaten pie and a first choice orange cutter in exchange for him ;).

Blease Tapscott and Strauss were all told in their exit interviews that we will try to on trade them.
If unsuccessful, they will reassess.

Blease has been talking to Carlton for a while, and Strauss has also had some chats.

So if we get anything for those 3, its a bonus

Dont attack? And what the [censored] are you trying to do with every 2nd post I make which has nothing to do with you?

Grow up mate, poor form.

  • 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.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
