The arrogance of Geelong is quite amazing. When they offered 800k they must have known Adelaide was going to match it. They can surely afford more. If they can't they have managed their list very poorly considering what they have lost this year. Adelaide matching makes is very hard for him to get to Geelong. The odds are against them now, and in favour of any team that can offer a better deal. Danger won't knock back a trade that Adelaide agrees with. As long as he gets to Victoria. If he knocks it back, he's in the pre-season draft for less money. Cats must be [censored] bricks. My God, there are some Cats fans on Bigfooty that I can't wait to lay in to if he doesn't end up there. All I would say is that it's not 100% he'd end up at Geelong and the response was always, "He's not coming to Melbourne", despite the fact I never mentioned Melbourne.

I used to like Geelong.

If he goes to the pre-season draft, he can name his price. I suspect he wouldn't be lowering his price if that were the case.

The reason he wouldn't want to go PSD is that Carlscum will get him and they are on the nose more than anyone

Word on the street is that Adelaide isn't too happy with Geelong's offer and are encouraging Dangerfield to pursue Melbourne. He's suppose to be considering this option very heavily as it's in his best interest to do what is best for the Adelaide footy club.

Not to mention he'll get another 600k per year with us. He could buy a nice water front mansion in Altona and be at his folks place in 60 minutes without a single traffic light between his house and Moggs Creek

With the money we'd be giving him he could buy his parents a new place in Melbourne. Heck, he could buy a new family.

Stuff the house at Altona (nothing against Altona, very nice spot), he could buy himself a yacht and sail it to Mogs Creek. When he gets tired of sailing, he could fly his Cessna he could afford to his family home and land on a makeshift runway!

If he's not a total fool, $10m over 6 years at the Dees (where he'll be a leader at an old school club starved of success which has a talented young list where he will be a legend) should be quite compelling.

Also - he can be partners in crime with our favourite son, Bernie.

Surely he shouldn't immediately dismiss it.

But, then again, perhaps he's not that clever.

Also by next year we'll be on par with geelong imo anyway.

Why???

Because they can tell him to try his luck in the draft then it's hello Carlton

That's just a bluff though.

All this chest-beating by their CEO Fagan about best deal for the club, then to let him go for nothing

That's his decision to make, not theirs. Adelaide match and he stays, Geelong do a deal that's acceptable, another club do a deal that's acceptable to him & Adelaide or he nominates himself for the draft.

I doubt it will get to that and a good deal will be made, most probably with Geelong.

Let me start by prefacing this as saying I don't see us as being a chance to get Dangerdive.

But....

If Adelaide match the Cats offer and there is no chance of a deal happening, Danger could wet his pants and decide not to risk ending up in the draft and at Carlscum so rather than take his chances, elects to go with some certainty, signs with us on a 5mill, 5 year deal that has 2 mill in the first year, 750,000 for the next four years. The first years front loading ensures the crows can't match it. (Nb figures made up)

Not going to happen, but thought I would post it to give the dreamers some hope.

    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

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc.
