    How much cap room do the pies have? Beams would be on a decent chunk of change but Danger would want a big deal to move prior to his RFA status next season. I can't see too many clubs having the cap room we have. I think pick #2 and swapping later picks (ie our 3rd for their 4th) gets the deal done. Important to note that Lumumba would be on a decent wage and his incoming salary may reduce what we can offer Danger. Lumumba coming here frees up more cap space for the pies. Danger being on the table may affect the Mitch Clark and Lumumba deals.

    Pies aren't the drawing card they used to be, I mean they're doing better than us currently but they are far from a top 4 team and they didn't even make finals this year.

    Could be a case of Roos then Goodwin vs Buckley in the end.

    We have enough positives to feed him- Hoges, Tyson, Viney, coming through etc. We can pay him the most- he can legitimately say he wants to be part of building something new (150 year old club) so we still have our positives

    Would have thought their 2015 salary offers would be about the same. Which would leave us ahead, as we'd be paying HL less than we paid MC.

    See your point tho'

    I think it is because we are Demons supporters that we are so persistent with holding on to false hope in this thread. Dangerfield will not be coming to MFC. Let's say, the equalisation debate is about to get worse.

    I'm happy with the players we will sign in the trade period.

    Interesting debut post.

    I can imagine that somehow he will end up at the Cats. How? Got no idea.

    Who have you heard that we will be signing in the trade period?

    I'm not dismissing Party boys stuff because I don't know anything myself, but I will go with GNF's stuff cos he has the runs on the board and I prefer his outcome :)

    We've spoken to Dangerfield and basically offered him an open check book.

    Sadly, he just doesn't want to come to MFC.

    Why didn't you just say that from the start?

    Cruel.

    Paul Roos said we haven't offered him anything?

    So the open cheque book Partyboy talks of isn't enough to convince young Patrick's as GNF talks about. Seems to me they are both right! Both have high believability in my book.

    I think he said we haven't 'officially offered him a contract' but we could still be trying to convince him (as per GNF) with an open cheque book (as per Partyboy). Not looking promising.

    U can't take pot shots at party boy cause he has said something which is from his source that we don't want to hear.

    In GNFs post it says something like "we need still to convince Danger to come to us".

    IMO it's a long way from being completed if at all.

    At the end of the day we will know which source is correct.

    Based on all informative posts above I am thinking Danger won't come to us but if he does it will be a nice suprise.

    Roos would make a great politician.

    Spot on. Never says anything he doesn't want people to hear. Often answers a question with an answer that has little or nothing to do with the question.

    E.g. Q: (Robbo AFL360) "Do you want Mitch Clark at Melbourne next year"

    A : Well, it's all about his health............"

    He is a genius

    PartyBoy, you are a party pooper!

    Party boy, who are you getting your info from?

    We know who GNF gets his from.

    In this particular thread, the horses mouth.

    "I do enjoy the irony that GNF is lauded as a God around here (and rightly so, I love him too, ha ha!) because he brings good news... but the moment you bring some bad news to the table it's automatically brushed off completely and there is no facts in it."

    No.

    I simply don't believe in people who talk with such arrogance.

    I started thinking that until I saw his favourite players were our '94 forward line (ahhh the memories)

    I doubt BV could name 5 of the six

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • PREGAME: Richmond

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
