Patrick Dangerfield


Demonsterative

Recommended Posts

Gazza hasn't extended his contract.....

Can't see the upside in this bloke.

Could unbalance the team.

We would be looking at Dangerfield as a messiah and we are a long way off. I'd offer Adelaide pick 3 and a couple of players to get the Crouch brothers and Lyons with a view on building depth. Brad Crouch is going to be a very good player.

Why not both? Give GWS their precious pick 2 for Shiel + their end of first rounder. (which we then trade for another player)

If they want Petracca, then P-2 for Shiel & Jaksch if the Aints don't take him with their 1st pick....

P-3 to either the GCSuns or GWS for a player/s & a 1st Rnd pick.... eg: Jaksch & GWS's end of first rounder & their 3rd Rnd'r. or Jaksch, Jono O'Rourke & their 3rd Rnd'r.

who have the Suns got for our P-3 ??? swallow + ?

Brad Crouch is already a very very good player. Would walk in and be right behind Nathan Jones as our best midfielder. He is so damaging with his pace and goal kicking. I'd give up pick 3 for him and another late pick.

Last year when we were shopping around pick 2 the crows asked what would you want in return for pick 2, we said Sloane, B.Crouch or Dangerfield, the offered Vince and Mckernan

...and they would say thanks but no thanks.

If we were throwing the cash around I would take him ahead of Danger...

It was reported on SEN that Melbourne had made Dangerfield a "Godfather" offer: Pick 2 and two players. Adelaide knocked it back, which self-evidently means the offer cannot be termed "Godfather" since it was an offer that Adelaide COULD refuse.

This thread is a tease. Danger is possibly the bloke I most love watching and, yes, I would part with one (left probably) to get him to the Dees.

Chances of that happening - about Tattslotto odds I should think. In fact, make that Tattslotto odds when you don't buy a ticket.

Jokes on Adelaide then when he leaves next year and all they get is pick 10.

Clubs need to wake up to free agency. Why settle for one compensation pick when other clubs will pay overs in a trade? Thankfully Roos has his head around the concept. I'm sure if he could do his time over he would've traded Frawley last year.

Thats a good point and may explain why we have pulled Jones to the talk tables also. Perhaps if the club sees hesitation from his party he may also be put up for trade to avoid him walking end of next yr.

We look like we will get a top 4 pick for frawley something the cats, hawks etc cant offer in a trade pick wise unless we got a player in return. Maybe frawely and pick 2 might have gotten danger or slone one will never know. One thing is if we do manage to get a top 4 selection - more then fair comp for the player he is.

He is RFA isn't he, so we can match any offer and he has to stay right?

I think Roos was pushing the barrow on this in a very calculated manner.

We were always going to have the coveted high picks for trades, and those statements were about buttering other teams up to get to the trade table. He was also, stating the reality, but with a purpose in mind.

its really easy , Crows take the trade now or loose him end of next year as a free agent and get much less

if we can convince him to come to melbourne then they need to take the trade otherwise waste a year with will he stay or go , just like Frawley

    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

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los
