Patrick Dangerfield


Demonsterative

Bloke at work is convinced the deal's been done with Geelong for Menzel and Mackie.

'Bloke at work' is a moron.

Mackie is considering retirement, best case scenario is one more year, and as if Geelong would give up Menzel now that he's finally got himself right after 4 years on the sidelines.

Good player with one year left in his career combined with the most injury prone (albeit very talented) player in the game doesn't get you one of the top 5 players in the comp.

Never mind the fact that Geelong can have him for free

yes but crows can match the offer and force a trade ...

he will then be on x amount of years at x amount of dollars at the crows.

the only way will be a trade , so look at it this way

melbourne offer a trade of pick 5 ( whatever our first pick is) and player , agreeing to pay whatever is on offer from geelong ( or more) , so crows match it knowing they will get a better pick from us

or he stays at crows , Crows hold all the cards as a RFA , the only way I see otherwise if he gets a monster deal which the crows can't match

could another be Veale ( name ?) deal .....

Nobody has matched a rival club's RFA offer and I doubt Adelaide will be able to pay him anywhere near what Geelong/whoever will offer.

yes true But wasn't there a article about geelong paying 1.2 for 2 years the 400k for next two so it would be 800 per year average and be the max Geelong would pay

as Crows couldn't match the 1.2 but can match the 800k

I do agree with you that its unlikely but that option is there and a smart club could pull it off if needed, food for thought

He will sign with Adelaide and I'll actually be happy about that. I like to see stars remain loyal to their club.

Yeah and means Geelong wont get him for free! God that would [censored] me off if they landed him

If I were a recruiter, I wouldn't be keen to trade for a defender who has seen his best years, and a guy who has had FOUR knee reconstructions.

Nek minnit, 'bloke at work' is Damien Barrett.

doesn't make sense

if they trade then not a fa deal then no fa compo

either scenario they get a first rounder

and.....danger would have to agree

trade seems highly unlikely

Spoke to Brendan McCarthy today while he was shopping in Geelong. Known him a while now.

Two things stuck out from our chat.

He thinks the Dees are 18 months off where the Doggies are at.

When I mentioned Dangerfield. He smiled and said "We're certainly having a crack!".

So why did we beat them convincingly in pre season and again 14 weeks ago.

More arse cake expectation management.

Just win you time serving parasites.

    REDLEG PRIDE by Meggs

    Hump day mid-week footy at the Redlegs home ground is a great opportunity to build on our recent improved competitiveness playing in the red and blue.   The jumper has a few other colours this week with the rainbow Pride flag flying this round to celebrate people from all walks of life coming together, being accepted. AFLW has been a benchmark when it comes to inclusivity and a safe workplace.  The team will run out in a specially designed guernsey for this game and also the following week

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play

    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
