Collingwood trade Lumumba and mid second round pick to North Melbourne for pick 15

Dees trade Picks 3, early second Rd'er & Mitch Clark to Collingwood for now Collingwoods pick 15

Adelaide trade Dangerfield and pick 10 to Melbourne

Melbourne then send Picks 2 and 15 back to Adelaide

Collingwood trade early 2nd Rd'er from Dees & Beams to Brisbane for Aish

Collingwood ontrade Aish to Adelaide

North Melbourne: Lose - Pick 15 > gain mid 2nd Rd'er & Lumumbaa

Adelaide: Lose - pick 10 & Dangerfiled > gain picks 2, 15 & Aish.

Brisbane: Lose - Aish > gain early 2nd Rd'er & Beams

Collingwood: Lose - Pick mid 2nd Rd'er, Beams & Lumumbaa >gain Picks 3 & Clark

Melbourne: Lose - Picks 2, 3, early 2nd Rd'er & Clark > gain Picks 10, 15 & Dangerfield.

I think this is fair for all and also allows for the Dees to then ontrade picks 10 or 15 in other trades

Aish, whilst being a good prospect, doesn't hold more value than Beams. Brisbane would be giving up Aish + another asset for Beams, not vice-versa

As pointed out in the above post by 'TL' you've got both us & Adelaide getting pick 15 in the final wash-up. In the above scenario I believe the Crows would get pick 15 (I think)

I'd take it anyway as I believe the only way we'll definitely get Dangerfield is give up picks 2 & 3 (with no strings attached)

In effect, we'd then lose pick 20 & Clark for pick 10. Again, in my eyes a good deal because I didn't think Clark would play again ...

Instead of pick 20, we get pick 10 - that's a win (in theory) although ... pick 20 in 2009 was Fyfe ^_^

Shoenmakers is a dumb footballer. Panics under pressure and makes poor choices. I know plenty of Hawk fans who roll their eyes every time he gets the ball.

I'm with you here Moon, if you get frustrated by the Grimes and McDonald clangers, you don't want Shoenmakers in the backline. As a forward maybe he has something to offer but it's a no from me.

Saints give up: pick 1,

get back: Jaksch & pick 4,

Demons give up: pick 3

get back: Shiel, pick 20ish (or frost)

Giants give up: Shiel, pick 4, Jaksch, pick 20ish

get back: pick 1, pick 3

The giants are essentially giving up pick 4 and 20ish for free, because 1 & 3 would be used to find direct replacements for Shiel and Jaksch. Hard to see the giants doing that... Great deal for the Dees though.

That's a slightly worse deal than the one we did for Tyson. Still not a terrible result.

I'm loving the rumours folks. Keep 'em coming.

So some proposals have us using picks 2 & 3 for Dangerfield; some for Shiel + Brayshaw.

Which is better?

Shiel and Brayshaw. Dangerfield is a star, but Shiel and Brayshaw have more football ahead of them and imo would represent the better value deal. If we were to deal a high pick for Shiel, we'd possibly get something else back too. Potentially three players as opposed to one.

Worth noting that Shiels stats compare very favourably to Dangerfield's at the same stage in their career.

Latest rounds I've heard amongst the office today.

Dees trade Pick 3 & Mitch Clark to Collingwood

Collingwood trade Beams to Brisbane

Brisbane trade Pick 25 (approx) to Melbourne & Aish to Adelaide

Adelaide tarde Dangerfield to Melbourne

Melbourne then send Pick 2 back to Adelaide and ontrade 25 to Collingwood

Collingwood send Lumumba back to Melbourne

Adelaide: Loose Dangerfiled, gain pick 2 & Aish.

Brisbane: Loose Aish & Pick 25, gain Beams

Collingwood: Loose Beams & Lumumbaa, gain Picks 3, 25 & Clark

Melbourne: Loose Picks 2, 3 & Clark, gain Dangerfield & Lumumba.

Reasonably fair, although a lot depends on Dangerfield not breaking down. We also Then still have our 2nd & 3rd round picks for Stretch & a trade for Frost.

sorry, don't like it, At ALL.

Shiel and pick 3 by a mile.

6-8 years of A+ grade footy from Dangerfield vs 10-12 years of A grade footy (potential for A+) from Shiel and 10-12 years of footy from pick 3.

At this stage for me getting danger is a bonus and it isn't the end of the world right now of we don't.

Trade pick 2 to a team that wants McCartin (sorry saints, not) that could be to the Dogs for a player and their first rounder. Then float pick 3 around, see what it gets- if nothing take best available in draft.

Could net us 3 good players, then next year we have more pulling power to get a big name FA- maybe pressure Adelaide again to dislodge Tex or Sloan, or who knows what happens at Pies- maybe make a play for Pendles- he will be avail I think.

Haven't given this too much thought, but if Lumumba goes to North, would we be able to get a look at Shaun Atley? I see Lumumba being a very similar player, who might hold Atley back?? They'll offer Muller but I think Atley will be much better.

I understand why Roos is after a rebounding defender, we've really only got defensive players, at best Grimes is a defensive/rebounder rather than attacking rebounding (if that makes sense?).

Would Clark to Coll, Lumumba to Nth and Atley to us do? or would picks come into it?

I expect based on not too much that the Dangerfield idea was a long shot and when that door closes, a deal involving Shiel and Frost will be our main focus

Why are GWS trading Shiel? Surely at some stage they have to focus on player retention?

If they want petracca so badly wouldn't they be doing a deal like that to saints for first pick? Can't do two trades like that.

They need to spread the age of their list, then they'll retain.

They'd be mad to trade Shiel unless he wants to come home. He is now what they hope the pick they'd get for him will become.

Still I'd love to get Sheil and still have top 3 pick in the draft.

I'm not convinced we wont get Petracca.

Has previously indicated he would like to come home to Melbourne. Rumours still abound, and he is yet to commit to a contract extension.

Current contract up at the end of next season. At this stage theres no word on Cameron or Treloar being close to extending either. Treloars probably been the most vocal about staying on at GWS.

    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

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo
