Oh god, this thread is gonna turn into another banana discussion for the next 360 days.

    You'd think we will probably throw a figure close to $5m at him over 5 years. Something along those lines. Whether he wants to flush his chances of a flag down the toilet for a few extra bucks remains to be seen. I hope he does, but suspect he won't. Watch him go to Geelong.

    If Boyd is worth $1m a year for 6 yrs what s Dangerfield worth??

    Hes not the only fish.

    Lets see what the ocean dishes up.

    Would have been good to land but we didnt.

    With the bizarre trading of picks (alliance?) between Adelaide and Geelong, i wouldn't be surprised if Dangerfield left as a FA to the Cattery next year, and there has been some sort of verbal agreement or something arranged around now.
    Call me a conspiracvy theorist, or crazy, but just my thoughts. And at least i'm open and honest about them and they aren't in riddle form.

    It's just amazing that the dogs can offer up that sort of coin for a bloke who's played a total of nine games.

    These types of deals aren't new though, are they. We've had first hand experience with Scully and how has that panned out?

    Boyd is a risk at $1M whereas Danger will deliver.

    If Danger is going to move next season the club and all other clubs will know by the start of the new season, the general public will know once the old "I'm putting my contract talks off to the end of season" gets trotted out

    Based on the thread/comments from GNF about how close we were to securing Dangerfield in a trade, could we have a Buddy Franklin to Sydney style commitment from Danger to come to us as a free agent next year?

  • Quote

    Draft two midfielders at 2 and 3 who genuinely excite the football world, get close to making the 8, throw an empty check book at Danger + all the trimmings and Danger is a dee in 2016.

  • Quote

    The only chance we have of getting Danger next year, or any other decent FA for that matter, is to dramatically improve on the field.

    Money isn't the only motivator for great players, success is as big a lure as anything.

    Show Danger that we're going places, and I'm sure he'll jump at the opportunity to earn $8mil in 7 seasons.

    If he agreed to the trade and contract Melbourne offered as GNF said, then we must be in the box seat to get him next year.

    Adelaide must be confident on changing his mind, or they've just totally screwed themselves.

    Set to be overlooked for the captaincy as Van Berlo is replaced. How many have left them now Davis, Tippet......

    Tex Walker when Rory Sloane is also available? Strange. Guess he hasn't signed yet either.

    Can we have both Sloane and Dangerfield please?

    Yeah but the diff is its not a Melb player who is being speculated about so we can sit back and enjoy the entertainment and all the bs that comes with it.

    Makes sense.

    Would love to know what Geelong are offering or could Hawks use the Buddy money?

    Geelong are definitely the front runners in the race to sign Danger. He met up with Chris Scott for a 2 hour long chat on the 2nd Jan at Skilled.

    That would make it a 50/50 chance between Geelong and North, wouldn't it?

    Thank you everyone, you've been a great audience, try the beef I hear it's great, and don't forget to tip your waiters.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: West Coast

      Epic battle alert.  This Sunday, Casey Fields hosts a coach’s showdown pitting the wits of the master Mick Stinear (92 games, 71.7% win rate) against his protégé Daisy Pearce (16 games, 43.8%). Still early in her coaching journey, Daisy’s record doesn’t yet reflect her impact — but she’s already the best-performed coach at West Coast.Dais’ is mythic.  Like Katniss Everdeen, everyone either wants to kiss her, kill her (sporting metaphor) or be her.  Toothers Daisy Pearce is a role model, someone admired for their heart, humility and humour.

    • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.
