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

Shut up shop now. 2&3 for Petracca and Lever and I'm happy.

Garlett and Lamumba improvements on what we have, Stretch on the cheap, yes we didn't bring in any experienced mids but we had a crack at it and no one bit, no point crying over it. It's all about incremental improvement. We need a couple more wins next year which will hopefully come and maybe there will be a tipping point where we are a desire able destination- bring in a gun FA next year and the best mid available with whatever pick we have next draft, trade or delist the remainder of the "scarred" players and were a new team.

Why do people keep saying Petracca when he is gone, either to Saints or GWS. He will not get past pick 1.

That Howe for pick 6 thing seems like way overs. Love Howe but he's not worth pick 6.

Having said that, GWS are probably the only team in the comp who would actually pay it. They need to generate some excitement for crowds and Howe will provide that.

Having someone up for mark of the year every week wearing their jumper could help drum up supporters.

He's gotta wanna go. Doesn't sound like he does and why would you, unless they were paying you a bucket load.

GWS want Pick 23 for Frost apparently. Demons have said they will pick him up in PSD. [censored] lets trade this pick and get Bernie Vince 2.0

I won't be surprised if pick 3 isn't moved on to a club with a player and pick around 6-11.

West coast has been very quiet this trade period, but they probably feel that they are still in a good position to get Garlett. I still think the AFL sanctions on the Swan is going to force their hand this trade period. Unlikely that Kennedy or their stars will be on the move, but they really have no alternatives than to look to the draft. (Heeney is a good start though :) )

Personally still think we have improved the list, we haven't been as flashy as Brisbane or GWS perhaps so far in terms of the 'names' but Garlett and Lumumba are in the 22. Frost is perhaps still fringe at the moment.

Insulting if they dared to ask for that for Frost

hope Mahoney told them to get farked

Greenwood goes for 25 after a great season and GWS ask for better for Frost who was dropped the last 7 games.

Pick 3 for Gaff and Pick 11? Throw big money at him to come back to VIctoria? Doubt they'd do it unless they really rated McCartin/Wright. Rosa would be OK too but is a bit more or a winger/flanker.

Surely we cant enter the 2015 season with approx. $1 million spare in the cap.

Roos says we must see improvement and not go through another re-build.

Find a trade, make it happen!

I hope they give the extra money to Jones, front load his contract and sign him for 5 years.

Seriously, he is priority #1 right now.

Greenwood and Christensen the bargains of the draft.

GWS have no use for a late pick, not likely to use it anyway, may as well just go to the PSD?

Players will retire, traded, de-listed etc which will create money for Jones.

It is just stupid to enter a season with $1 million spare. We could potentially have 2-3 Bernie Vince type deals with our $$ and trades.

Sign 2-3 premium mids, we win a few more games, the future looks brighter. This will encourage Jones to stay.

I'm quite happy I am not in control of the trades here. I'm getting itchy trade fingers which sees both Cooney and Robinson looking better and better by the minute.

Help me Josh Mahoney, I need a hit.... just one little hit

    GOLDIE'S METTLE by Meggs

    On a perfect night for football at the home of the Redlegs, Norwood Oval, it was the visiting underdogs Melbourne who led all night and hung on to prevail in a 2-point nail-biter. In the previous round St Kilda had made it a tough physical game to help restrict Adelaide from scoring and so Mick Stinear set a similar strategy for his team. To win it would require every player to do their bit on the field plus a little bit of luck.  Fifty game milestoner Sinead Goldrick epitomised

    REDLEG PRIDE by Meggs

    Hump day mid-week footy at the Redlegs home ground is a great opportunity to build on our recent improved competitiveness playing in the red and blue.   The jumper has a few other colours this week with the rainbow Pride flag flying this round to celebrate people from all walks of life coming together, being accepted. AFLW has been a benchmark when it comes to inclusivity and a safe workplace.  The team will run out in a specially designed guernsey for this game and also the following week

    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
