Not sure if its been mentioned on the 101 pages so far, but I believe that Dangers old man is on the crows recruitment staff or has been offered a role in a deal similar to Scully's old man.

Just learnt this today and thought it was a interesting

Who told you that?

Someone is pulling your leg.

No, it's wrong.

Have a number of associates who know Mr Danger well.

Was pretty happy when I read this today

Yes, good get and news to me.

Surprising when he appears to have quite a bit to do with the Geelong Cats.

Dangers Sr is certainly more qualified than Scully Sr for such a position.

I know nothing about him or what he does, just got told the news from someone I'd back in. Maybe he just watches the Falcons train and sends some details through to the Crows... ala Saty

I'd love to know how many of these jobs happen in the league and how its monitored or if its possible to monitor. How many players out there could have there missus pealing oranges for the club on half a mil?

So Adelaide may not be the hot [censored] they think they are. Absolutely destroyed by the Dogs indicates they are a fair way off yet.

He'd be mad to go to Geelong.

Back in the race perhaps?

Would rather save the money, throw a sh-tload of $$$ at Dylan Shiel and use the leftovers on our improving players who will soon deserve a pay rise

oh and we will need $$$ to give Jesse a massive deal.

Hmm in their salary cap like GWS????

I smells a rat. Adelaide got off lightly with their CEO and their cheating the salary cap. Should be an investigation.......

I'm optimistically hoping that defeating Geelong has made The Dees a more attractive option for Dangerfield next year.

I think PD has said something about preferrring to join a successful club, so at least we have shown a bit of potential to be that club and I think we will have a few more wins by year's end. Geelong had been the front runner to sign him so beating them helps and hopefully shows they are on the way down..

It doesn't look like Adelaide is leaving much space for him in their cap so I anticipate the move back to Victoria should happen.

maybe Bernie can be an influence too?

I rate Patrick Dangerfield and think he could easily take the spot of one of our second tier midfielders.

He would slot in nicely alongside our 'A Graders'.

I hope we really push to get him and wondered what other opinions are out there.

My news is that Paddy is coming home. What have you heard M?

The more games we win from now and the more publicity we get, especially about the youngsters, the more we will be seen as an attractive proposition by players looking to move clubs.

I would be talking up the players out injured and how they would improve the team as well.

Home being Victoria or home being Geelong?

Hey Dazzle will you never post again if Danger comes to the MFC? :rolleyes:

Nothing lately. Nada.

I honestly think everyone is waiting to see & no one really knows how it will pan out, but that Danger is leaning towards leaving, wherever his destination may be.

Home to the surfcoast, fairly confident that he will be residing there. As for footy I don't know.

Fair enough, humble pie served and consumed. Apologies Mr Deeko.

Maybe he wouldn't want to join us as he would have to train with Bernie and, hopefully, Trenners. Could get ugly. :-))

We don't want him.

Then who do we want?

There's no longer many A grade mids available in the FA market.

Work the trade period again? If we have a good run home we'll have a weaker hand to deal with.

Did anyone see the Footy Show last night regarding Neville Jetta's cousin who hasn't signed at Sydney. Thoughts on our chances of getting Lewis to the Dees.

Surely there's some connection, Roosy, Fruity, Macpherson plus Nev.

Personally I'd love the thought of his outside speed and run.

I may b alone here but I would rather not land Danger. I see him as a selfish player which was shown last week when he went against team rules in the final quarter to try get some easy kicks.

Paying over 1m for a player like that could hurt a teams culture. Let's go to the draft or target 2nd -4th year mids instead and save our cash for the Hoges

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc.
