agree JORDAN SCHRODER, is a must target. 21yo. winner of Liston trophy in 2013 and NOT getting a go in Cats midfield. Stars at VFL level and squeezed for opportunity.

How many guys leave Geelong if Geelong don't want them gone? He's going nowhere.

    Mumford is the one that got away and Roos got him away, not saying Shroder but if they have any players of interest to us I'm sure we will have a go.

    Savage left hawthorn for more game time... If we offer schroder more game time we are a chance.

    Is that the same savage who's played one game this year?

    is Tex Walker an unrestricted free agent at the end of this season?

    Tex walker is out of contract at the end of 2015, but teams are going to become more and more willing to trade players the year before if they feel they will lose them in order to get better compo

    I am pretty sure they giftwrapped him and Byrnes for us to get them out the door quicker.

    That is a present I'd definitely be re-gifting.

    Patton moves about as fast as a kitchen sink. No thanks.

    The 3 midfielders are obvious talents but they all spend a lot of time going backwards and sideways at half back due to a lot of the supporting cast. The worry is you'd need to take them backwards in development to teach them how to play proper football if they get entrenched in this crud. Collingwood are doing that with Taylor Adams right now. Tyson might've been lucky to miss so much footy in his first 2 years.

    We need to get blokes like O'Rourke and Plowman, guys who haven't been as exposed to the GWS style

    I disagree regarding Treloar, Shiel, and Cameron as they appear to be the only three young guns producing well and on a consistent basis - especially for their age.

    For me these three are "blue chip" youngsters, if any are obtained there is a very high chance they will continue to perform and produce at a high level.

    As for O'Rourke he hasn't really proven himself at the AFL level due to a lack of opportunity and Plowman being a bigger body should take longer. Thus both are far more risky.

    I would cough up pick 4 for Treloar or Shiel without hesitation or regret, if it were for the other two we'd be essentially picking up a new draftee with a couple of years in the system

    I agree.. But i wouldnt cough up pick 4 straight for Shiel (i would from Trealor), Shiel has not proven enough to be worth it. I would like them to combat Shiel with something

    The question should be "What would you be prepared to add to pick 4 to get Shiel?"

    lets say we have 800k freed up from Mitch Clarks contract and other delistings (will assume Frawley stays)

    what would you prefer

    Spend 800k on Jeremy Cameron

    Spend 800k on Adam Treloar and Dylan Shiel

    Agree, going to cost us at least a mil thought, pick 4 at least though.

    Surprised at the lack of mention re Brisbanes young mids, id consider Mayes or Aish with 1st an 3rd round pick. They are in dire need of talls so they would welcome another early pick. Lets face it, it wont be hard to convince a young player to leave Brisbane

    absolutely worth it, i'd give pick4 + Frawley in a heartbeat

    we get ourselves a genuine coleman medal type with a decade of footy in him that would be a massive piece of the puzzle

    yes I am aware we have Hogan.. maybe

    possibly pick 4 and someone like Blease for Shiel and Kristen Jaskch?

    Blease isn't worth anything of value. If anybody really wanted him they could pick him up in the rookie draft after we delisted him.

    Absolutely, I am all for a juicy 5 year deal to Cameron, and would happily give them pick 4, pick 22 and Blease to get it over the line, if we lose Chip I wonder if we could use the compo pick to wrangle one of Sheil or Treloar into the deal as well, that would be absolutely perfect imo

    • 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.
