No chance guys. Adelaide said on trade radio they will back there club in to keep danger and the talk of danger being traded was just stupid. He is a contracted player and Adelaide can just match any offer as he is a restricted free agent next year. Time to move on guys and start talking Sloan or tex. Lol

Don't worry Jim. If danger leaves Adelaide just want to make it look like he wanted to leave instead of Adelaide wanting to trade.

    I heard that we spent that money on a desk

    "Home House": Darren Lyons' unimaginatively-named drug-fuelled menace of a nightclub in Geelong.

    Home House is a private club in London. Lyons copied the idea...in Geelong ha ha

    Well if all parties were waiting on the Frawley compo to proceed with any potential trades for Danger... now would be an opportune time to proceed with said trade. :)

    There's still a chnace if Dangerfield wants to leave.

    his silence to Not say NO, IMO suggests that. keeps the fires burning & the talk still warm.

    And by going hard at Danger, worst case, we may help squeeze out a Sloane or tex, offer them all $1m each I say, no way we don't land 1 of them IMO!! ;-p

    He might be in a holiday, and as he is contracted a non-issue for him but I'm not completely giving up yet.

    I'm starting to think I'd prefer say Shiel and Prestia with both picks and maybe another first rounder back. Perhaps though, this is just a defence mechanism, as the likelihood of Dangerfield come is pretty low? Fingers crossed tomorrow is an eventful day. This trade period is going to be absolutely fascinating.

    I don't want him. The price is too high. 2 and 3 could get a shot at a really fine kid (Here I am having faith in the recruiters), and a Tyson / Salem deal. All eggs in one basket is insane from where we are. It's a Judd deal, and just ask the Scum how many flags that got them.

    You build a team. You don't give up the chance at the best in the land because BP was a retard and you think one player will make the team.

    I don't think we have to go both picks for Dangerfield though. Roos has flagged that anyway. That may change, but I reckon he's cleverly setting up the fact that we only need to offer pick 2 for Dangerfield, by sign-posting the Judd to Carlton deal all these years ago. FWIW, I think he's right. Pick 2 is far better compensation than they'll receive next year. By comparing the situation to the Judd deal, it also sets the bar pretty high for the value of pick 3. It means that we could shop pick 3 around, with the expectation that we'll get a young mid (ie Shiel) and a first rounder back, as a younger mid (Shiel) is more of a gamble than a bonafide star (Dangerfield). What a horrible sentence.

    I want us to get Shiel no matter what. danger included.

    Prestia, with 2 yrs to go on his, this time next year would the right time IMO.

    Why use valuable draft picks? Just get him to agree in principle now ala Scully, Ablett, Franklin etc, and pick him up for free next year. I've got trust in the FD to choose the right young talent with those picks.

    We haven't been the club of choice for the Ablett's & Franklin's of the league, to put it mildly. This is our chance - assuming Roos wants Dangerfield.

    We will be usurped next year by a top 4 club if he gets to free agency.

  • Quote

    Perhaps this year is as much about buttering Dangerfiled up for next as it is having a real crack at him.

    If we can nab Brayshaw and Petracca and move to just outside the 8 in 2015, with a bundle of cash we become far more alluring to Dangerfield and get him for NOTHING draft wise.

    Next year Danger is a RFA, and AFC can match an offer to keep him. The top 4 will be limited in how much they have to spend, and are unlikely to offer so much more that the AFC couldn't match it. Whereas the MFC could (and would have to) blow all others (Including the AFC) away in order to get him...

    We may be in the box seat next year as well. Dangerfield may face another 2 years at AFC before being able to sail to a top 4 club.

    Does that mean they wont let you in there Machsy?

    It means I wouldn't be caught dead in there.

    Great place if you want to get glassed.

    Surely Adelaides new coach will inspire Danger to sign on...

    first thing that popped into my mind upon this announcement

    • 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.
