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

    Because they're both from SA?

    He has NFI.

    '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.

    LOL because Adelaide are opening a retirement/rehab centre?

    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.

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

    Adelaide would be better off with the compo than trading for Mackie and Menzel.

  • Quote

    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

    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.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?
