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.

I meant Brayshaw, woops

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.
 

Surely we will trade pick 23 for someone?

Happy to hold pick 2 and 3 obviously, but holding 23 when we can do another Vince type deal is just silly

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


"Never say Never" - @melbournefc Josh Mahoney on whether picks 2 & 3 could be traded today #NABTradeRadio

Game on.

Talk that the Dogs are interested in Shane Biggs. I would have thought that he was the sort of player we should be looking at if we can't land a big fish.

GWS want Pick 23 for Frost apparently.

Insulting if they dared to ask for that for Frost

hope Mahoney told them to get farked

 

Bernie Vince has gotta be there though. There may not be an equivalent trade available this year.

Don't understand why people take him serious.

Probably because everythings hes said before has happened


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.

Just land someone damn it. I want another midfielder. Why oh Why did i have my 2 weeks off over the Trade Period.

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

id trade a late pick for Mitch Robinson, he would help our midfield and thats what we need

Wont happen though as we have Garlett, 0% chance Roos reunites them

ummm....no

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!

No it hasn't.

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.

Nathan Jones...

EDIT. Beat me to it, Jaded.

Rather take Lever

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?

 

Nathan Jones...

EDIT. Beat me to it, Jaded.

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

  • REPORT: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
