You mean Cam Schwab and Chris Connolly?? :)

Speaking of which, isn't this the year we were supposed to be vying for a flag? IIRC the napkin team list was to deliver us a premiership next week. Still waiting.....

Id rather trade pick 2 and 3 on Shiel and Trelor rather spend it all on the one player who is 25 next year and probably get 5 years out of him the way his body is going.

Lets not put all our eggs in one basket.

Would pick 2 and 3 get shiel and treloar tho?

You say that as if it's a viable trade option...

Might be better getting ROK or Sewell for 12 months for next to nothing as a mentor to our young mids and use picks 2 & 3 on Petracca, Brayshaw or similar.

Ok just saw the page.

First of all you do realize that page is run by a 15 year old melbourne supporter who does nothing but cause trouble on his page just to get a reaction out of supporters.

Its not a rumour its a fake and complete [censored}

its run by carlton and collingwood supporters now

Would really like to retain Trengove and Toumpas. See little point in getting rid of them at this stage.

Plenty of upside also with Salem, Kent, Michie, JKH and Riley. I think Viney also played injured for most of the year.

Add that lot to Jones, Vince, Tyson and Cross I think we have the basis of an A grade midfield.

No need for rash decisions.

Its an example.

And why couldn't it be a viable trade option. I have seen the work Roos and PJ have done.

No its still the same muppet. He just says he is a Carlton supporter so people think he hae changed admins. Look how biased he is towards Melbourne.

Worst page going around.

I've been a Dangerfield sceptic from the start and based on what I've seen and heard from and about him in the last 24 hours, I would say that anyone who thinks there's any truth in the story that he's coming to Melbourne next year is dreaming.

I think many posters are missing the fact that he bagged the club and its leaders for sacking Sanderson. He said it was their position to do it and not the players. I think he actually gave Ricciuto and co a fair slap. He said he was happy there but I wonder. Looked happy to be with Bernie.

I thought we'd left base camp, oh we have but decided it was a high and scary so we went down to try the kiddies slope instead.

I wouldn't be wanting to trade Trengove out unless it was for an absolute superstar like Dangerfield.

I have a feeling that he'll come back from his injuries a far better player - hopefully the player we were all dreaming of after his first two seasons.

I'd be more inclined to let Toumpas go but only if the price were right, as I still think he can be a good player for us.

Exactly.....I didn't think it was definitive he was staying at Adelaide at all.

Said the usual things players say when questioned about moving.

Cards very close to his chest........who knows what's going on behind the scenes

Bit of random trivia I learnt today is that his dad, Ollie Wines dad and Ryan O'Keefes dad all played in a flag together at Anglesea.

Surely the three of them would love catching up while watching there boys run around in the red and blue (one can dream :wub: )

His parents are still down there and he has purchased a house there in one of the small towns. Something Creek, cant remember. Anyways, he is down there a lot and is still a Victorian at heart.

I don't think he will finish his career at the Crows and I honestly don't think they expect him to either.

a lot to be said for this thought.

IMO putting dangers aside, we do need to maximise our picks, so If we could get another young up & comer coming home, plus some steak knives from one deal, then lets do it.

Shiel - Jaksch

I too am concerned about the potential of the danger Hammy twangs, a cyriol phenomena.

this is the thing, IMO the best way to go, get the Shiels & Jaksch's, Frosts etc; & RO'K & Sewell (1Yr each playing mentors swinging between the Dees & Casey) to guide the players in their development whilst onfield.

Yeah, Moggs is a lovely place. Point Roadnight's better though.

That's the one! Thanks bud, appreciate it.

I think the Catters will be the one for him next season.

I know you have your Cats contacts Machsy, your thoughts on this?

Mods - for the sake of most threads, can you please create a "trading" thread where Olisik is the only one allowed to post, with the condition that they (Olisik) are not allowed to post their trade ideas in any other thread?

Surely you have him on ignore?

I know the cats are already into him about next year.

Doesn't mean he won't leave this year, but I'd be surprised if he stays in Adelaide long term.

Don't do it when you're having a bad day you just read one or two of his jaw dropping posts and it makes you feel talented, whilst also confirming Demonland has it's share of window lickers

It depends what the rumour is. You can't blame MFC supporters for wanting to believe Dangerfield toured our facilities. :D

So did Chri$$$$ Judd :-((((

Dangerfield is afraid of coming to MFC as he is worried that Jack Trengove will tackle him at training.

(PS: maybe he would come if we traded him for Trengove, so this clash couldn't happen)

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    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
