Potential Trades [Warning: Reading this thread may self-destruct]

So putting the two riddles together, I get:

Black mouse - Paul Roos (black hair, small mammal)

Electric Clock - Jack Watts

Lancelot in feathers or furs to command of his sir or whatever - swan who played under Roos.

So we're trading Watts to Sydney for a player?

I'm quite enjoying this.

Edit: just realised Sydney can't trade in players :(

Someone just posted on another thread that a good source has told him that Trengove is staying put. What does that do to your riddle GNF?

These been a lot of so called good sauce around but no one will give us any of it to taste.

Joey!

...Josh Kennedy. I win ;)

But then again I've been alluding to Sydney, in addition to posting photos of JPK for the last 24 hours. But who am I to spread rumours? I'm just a Demonland poster with no credibility whatsoever...

Why sad dd? The transformation of the list is a long term proposition not a short term fix. I for one am excited that this upcoming crop of draftees are going to have a seriously good mentor in Roos to show them the ropes in their first and second years. All the players crucified on these forums over the past few years are being weeded out, minus a couple. It's nothing but positive steps for mine

I thought sydney could trade their players for draft picks, but could not trade players for other players, if so they maybe looking to get as many early draft picks as this their sole source of new blood this year.

Correct. Can only trade out their players for picks, not other picks

Ok, here you all go:

- "Our likely trade partner comes in black and white but is not a little bird. "

Solution: Swan. A large bird that comes in black or white

- "Tick, tock, the black mouse has run up the electric clock.

Lancelot lurks with feathers or fur to the command of his sir."

Solutions:

- Clock: SCG clock tower

- Mouse: John F Kennedy's wife called him "mouse".

- Lancelot: JFK had a well-documented fascination with Lancelot, and is linked to him throughout various texts i.e. 'Medievalism in North America'

Now Chook in Perth's riddles:

- "Our marsupial is digging into his old pouch"

Solution: Roos - Sydney

- "What's in a pouch"?

Solution: Joey. (Kennedy's nickname)

I win

swans cant trade in players but pick's are a different story. 3 for Mitchel.... then they can get another tall (2m peter?) to replace Goodes after next year.... just saying.

3 for Mitchell too high! Can't get a game, should be second rounder at best

"Lancelot: JFK had a well-documented fascination with Lancelot, and is linked to him throughout"

And JFK supposedly liked to use his lance a lot. Which, considering his chronic back condition can either be viewed as a mighty effort or mighty stupid!

everyone else is speculating. I'm just basing possibility of the other errrrr "stuff"? floating around.

fwiw it's not the speculating that is annoying me in reading all this, just the knee "jerks".

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out
