If griffin goes to gws look out for shiel or treloar coming our way!!!!

Rubbish

 

We must have at least $1.7m in the salary cap with Frawley and Clark both gone. We were already only paying the minimum cap.

Pretty sure the bold drafting from the Lions has been a result of throwing around some big ticket contracts and seeing what bites. About time we do the same. Put a few $550k 4 year contracts under their noses and we'll see how much they want to stay in western Sydney.

I'd be putting 650k five year deal under Treloar's nose...

That's right...the tables are turning since they did it to us with Scull dog.

Yep, and not far off $600k for Shiel.

a few more posts to go til the magical 100 page mark and Danger is guaranteed to be a Demon

 

If Adelaide were even to entertain a trade, the way the EBA structured with the AFLPA and the AFL the player has to agree to the trade also. And why would Dangerfield agree to come to Melbourne over Geelong or Hawthorn? He had the option to go Geelong 3 or 4 years ago on a huge contract when he first came out of contract and knocked them back to resign with Adelaide. And he's a Geelong Falcons product. Could have been a premiership player already if he wanted to come back to Vic.

Won't be going anywhere.

Well Adelaide weren't exactly the worst side 3 or 4 years ago

Hmmmm Gary Ablett hasn't re-signed with the Suns yet,,,,,,

Is there any more juicy and inaccurate Facebook rumours out there?

You gotta wonder if this sudden change of heart about taking picks 2 and 3 to the draft is because the Saints told us they're taking McCartin?

Make that ten....

When is this [censored] going to put on his red socks and blue jocks.

Maybe we are warming to McCartin? I like Dawesy, don't get me wrong, but perhaps they've realised that he's just not that good?

Sounds like an immature passing comment, but really, Hogan and McCartin would set up our attack for the next decade with two guys that have the potential to be 50+ goal per year forwards.

Dawes will never be that type of player. Would be a good enforcer whilst the young blokes learn the craft though.

Wonder if Taylor prefers Wright or McCartin...

Agreed, or we have got wind that the GWS & Saints trade won't happen now and we already knew the Saints would take McCartin if the kept the #1 pick

Wonder if Taylor prefers Wright or McCartin...

McCartin seems the safer bet, but Wright has the potential to fit our structure better as he can play ruck, too. Think Kurt Tippett.

McCartin is the more typical power forward in the Hogan/Dawes mould.

Personally wouldn't mind either, Wright is a better kick and is quick for a big bloke, but there's question marks over his competitiveness/hardness.

Well Mahoney did come out and say it after the Griffen story broke, so the club must have reconsidered their options.

GWS won't be able to get pick 1 if they give pick 4 to the Bulldogs for Griffen.

  • 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.
