    I guarantee we will be offering a very large contract for him. Whether he wants to join us is another question.

    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.

    • 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.
