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.

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

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?

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

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea
