5 inside 20

AW reporting Melbourne prepared to put, Watts, Toumpas, Grimes and Trengove on table. They want 5 picks inside Top 20.

Not sure how they would know this.

I used to have some sort of feeling toward the players but right now, I don't really care who we put on the table, as long as it makes us a better side.

This is the same media that said Ling was a done deal to be an assistant at the MFC as recently as last week.

I will believe it when it happens.

Would they trade Toumpas after he says he will be here for the long haul today.

You would struggle to get a top 20 pick for three of them as a bundle

Sounds like an ill conceived fire sale. You'd be selling trengove & toumpas when they're at their lowest ebb in terms of market value. The only player with a chance of attracting a first round pick would be Watts - and would only be based on potential.

Surely you'd trade for players and not picks.

I thought Roos was about building culture? Jackson has discussed about importance of the feel in the locker room? Losing faith by the second.

Ridiculous. Winning far outweighs the feel in the locker room - that can be constructed with any kind of playing list.

First you need good players and this proves that we aren't even at level 1 yet.

He is by creating a winning culture.

But he needs to take out the trash first.

One day the MFC may even rise up to have the second worst team in the AFL.

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,

    GALLANT by KC from Casey

    The world “gallant” is not one that is readily acceptable to losing teams in our game of football so when it was used in the context of the Casey Demons’ loss to Sandringham in yesterday’s match at Casey Fields, it left a bitter taste in the mouth.  The Demons went into the game against the St Kilda affiliated Zebras with the advantage of playing on their home turf (not that this has been a major asset in 2024) and with very little else going in their favour. The Saints have close to a full

    MEANWHILE by Whispering Jack

    … meanwhile, at about the same time that Narrm was putting its feet on the accelerator to obliterate the long-suffering Euro-Yroke combination, I heard someone mention in passing that Kuwarna was leading Waalitj Marawar by a whopping 46 to 1 halfway through the second quarter of their game over in Adelaide. “What is football coming to?” I asked myself.  In front of my eyes, the Demons were smashing it through the midfield, forcing turnovers and getting the footy to their forwards who w
