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 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.

    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

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
