It's nearly lunchtime and we haven't even gotten the freakin Lamumba deal done.

That's because the Pies are universally accepted as being just behind the Bombers in being absolutely impossible to deal with.

Buckley in the middle of trade week goes to Bali and forces Varcoe and Greenwood to go there to talk to him.They have taken days to decide on Crisp. They obviously haven't got any pens at the Lexus centre to sign documents.

 

*I would be very funny though if the trade actually happened

Some might think you are funny already.

I tips me hat to the Pies though... they want...they get. Thats wrong ?

Red, in reality a, b and c need not be mutually exclusive !!

He might well know the typical questions he will be asked, he s most likely quick of mind and he needn't lie to answer in that fashion. As noted elsewhere if 2 AND 3 arent being used together then his answers are all bone fide :)

Except that I think Ralphy said to Hungry, that he asked him point blank, are you interested or trading for Kennedy and he said no.

Seems like the Deams thing is finally being sorted out in the next 15-20 min. Hopefully this is the damn trade that needed to be sorted out for the Clark, Lumumba trades to progress.

Really? You're so perceptive

Ralphy SAID that he asked him point blank, but who really knows.

Let's just let this rumour run until 2:01 tomorrow... having fun with the dreams.
 

What does "apos" mean on twitter, I keep seeing it and don't know what it means?

can you use it in context Redleg?

I thought it was supposed to mean 'A piece of sh*t' or 'Annoying piece of 'Sh*t' but I'd need to see in context


Annoying Piece of S***

half right...

when we draft a kid he is "apos" - a potential superstar.

2 seasons in and he becomes what Carnthedees said

Annoying Piece of S***

Alternately it can sometimes be a formatting issue in the background of the software, "&APOS" is the coding for an apostrophe.

They've been saying that for like 3 days. Collingwood would just LOVE doing this. Involving 5 other clubs in one trade and being the ones responsible for getting it through or not. MFC and Geelong both wanted to do our own part of the deal separately to avoid this mess, and Colonwood specifically told us not to.

Egotistical maniacs.

Until they get their midfield together at the start of the pre-season and realised they're screwed without Beams

I know... Trade Radio said a meeting of all players in that trade including the MFC are meeting at AFL house @ 11:30... so hopefully something more than the crap they have been saying for 3 days

Beams, Lamumba, Maxwell, McCaffer all out next year, and Swan on his last legs.

Should be an interesting year for the Pies.

all 5 teams meeting at 11 30 at AFL house to complete the 5 way trade

Hope we snag a late pick on top of Lumumba to use on Frost

agree... I'd like to think that we have spent some of the time wasted by the pies in this trade trying to squeeze more for Clark out of Geelong... Not confident though.

go stand in the naughty corner

No room we are all over here... and someone fa rted

Unlikely, Balme said last night that we agreed to terms with Geelong last week, so it's essentially always been Clark for their second rounder. The only change that happened when it went to a 3 way trade was Geelong offering Colonwood Varcoe instead of a second rounder.

If they coughed up their third rounder as well and we got the Frost trade across the line today I'd be ecstatic.

Thanks, seems more likely than some of the other answers.

 

How about this.

MFC give up 2 & 3 and receive JPK & Mitchell & 39

Then send Pick 39 to GWs for Frost

Then the Harry O, Varco, Clark deal gets done between the 3 clubs

MFC

In - JPK, Mitchell, Frost & Harry O

Out - 2 & 3

I dont love it, but if MFC want some quality players this is a option.

  • GAMEDAY: Richmond

    It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG to face the Tigers in their annual Blockbuster on ANZAC Eve for the 10th time. The Dees will be desperate to reignite their stuttering 2025 campaign and claim just their second win of the season. Can the Demons dig deep and find that ANZAC Spirit to snatch back to back wins?

  • PREVIEW: Richmond

    A few years ago, the Melbourne Football Club produced a documentary about the decade in which it rose from its dystopic purgatory of regular thrashings to the euphoria of a premiership victory. That entire period could have been compressed in a fast motion version of the 2025 season to date as the Demons went from embarrassing basket case to glorious winner in an unexpected victory over the Dockers last Saturday. They transformed in a single week from a team that put in a pedestrian effort of predictably kicking the ball long down the line into attack that made a very ordinary Bombers outfit look like worldbeaters into a slick, fast moving side with urgency and a willingness to handball and create play with shorter kicks and by changing angles to generate an element of chaos that yielded six goals in each of the opening quarters against Freo.

  • NON-MFC: Round 07

    Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • REPORT: Fremantle

    For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

  • CASEY: UWS Giants

    The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

  • PREGAME: Richmond

    The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?
