It would be great if we could snare Dangerfield, and then use him for depth, just in case a Terlich or Matty Jones get injured.

Won't happen. Our run with injury and player management recently has been superb.

Signed up seven kid members to the club yesterday. Three of whom were new-born sons of mates of mine - fathers all support the Crows. Get Danger and we've got these boys for life. That said, it'll

And your annoying neighbour is standing behind the Picket Fence whinging and talking absolute shite every time you check the mail.

What was the Veale deal? I cant remember, he played for the bulldogs didn't he?

Can't remember exactly, but our own Jade Rawlings wanted to go to North, Bulldogs had first pick in the PSD, so they sent an early pick or similar (bit I can't recall) to Hawthorn for Lochlan Veale, who was a consummate spud, and in return the Hawks didn't trade him to North, forced him into the PSD where the dogs were waiting.

Rawlings kicked 7 on debut for the Dogs then did very little after that. He even ended up at North a few years later. Hawthorn on-traded pick 6 for Danny Jacobs who played 45 forgettable games for them, while pick 6 ended up being used on Kepler Bradley! There weren't any major winners from the Veale deal and it must have been pretty embarrassing for the kid.

Hilarious to Connors imploring the Crows to accept a compo pick.

I think I've said it before, but those claiming that talks between Adelaide & Geelong are "amicable" also happen to be those that have an interest in a quick, cheap & easy transition for Danger; those being Danger himself, Connors and Geelong.

It's far from a done deal.

Unless Adelaide accepts compo, Danger could really end up anywhere.

how many first round picks are Geelong going to need

I know its early , but if crows match the offer you would think Geelong would have to give up 2 first round picks

and Carlton want one for Henderson too

from afl.com.au

Henderson wants to get to Geelong during the NAB AFL Trade Period and the Cats are keen to come to an agreement with Carlton.

Complicating the issue are negotiations to secure restricted free agent Patrick Dangerfield, with the Cats – whose first pick is No.9 overall – possibly needing to trade for the superstar midfielder if Adelaide matches their offer.

But McKay said Carlton was eyeing another first-round pick for Henderson

Cant we just run an automated search and replace with the next A-grade player's name who becomes "available", and save ourselves from repeating another 168 pages of wishful thinking?

We could still do a trade with Geelong.

Terlick and our 3rd rounder for Dangerfield and their 4th rounder, waddayathink?

    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

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out
