Did anyone just listen to that [censored] on AFL trade radio? Typical pessimistic Melbourne supporter..

The one that said Viney was too small?

I think I hear d what you heard, I laughed at Barrett saying we will go hard to trade picks, but there is not much coming out of Melbourne. In other words, he is just making it up. SO bad its funny the unaccountability of Media in this Industry. They simply make things up, say whatever they want and no one can call them on it.

Honestly, the Journalism levels in Footy are like the players' in the AFL. There is so many of them that the quality has dropped. The talent pool has been sucked dry and now, so many have a voice.

Sorry for my rant!

Yea that one

Yep I thought what an absolute [censored] of a bloke. Even terry Wallace sounded dumbfounded at that comment and stated he had played with some great small one included John Plattern

Trade radio is shlt. Every day it drops out. Surely with the amount of ads they pump through and the fact that it is on the Telstra site you would think they could afford to make it work. SHAME AFL - SHAME TELSTRA

Edit: - While i'm complaining, can we fix the time?

Todd Viney on triple M

Very happy with pick 3. Disappointing to lose Frawley but didn't seem that interested lol

Open to clubs coming to us in regards to trading their early picks. Last years draft and trade was a success

Haven't had anything concrete in regards to Trading pick 2 or 3. Clubs still asking questions.

Bit to be done in regards to Garlett and Lumumba trade. Hopefully end of week they will become dees.

So much for Roos being the master list builder. To date he has lost our number 1 forward and number 1 defender, and the best he might be able to do in return is Lumumba and Garlett, both unwanted by their current clubs. Perhaps he should cancel his holiday and work on bringing some established midfielders to the club.

The two win season we are heading for next year will be fun to watch.

The award for the the worst statement on here goes too.....Poita. Come on down

End of third day coming up and not one single trade completed. This is a yawnfest.

The first few days always are. I was kind of hoping for something different this year though.

If there is nae Danger, chips all in on something similar to last year with the High Vis kids. Frost steak knives.

Eh?

I heard him speak once and it seemed like his 5 minute speech went for 2 weeks - is that the same thing ?

I would think that P-3, 23, & 33 would get us Shiel, Tomlinson & Frost

may have to add a bit more to swap Tomlinson for Jaksch? maybe P-2, 23 & 33 if GWS would get Petracca? ..... may give us Shiel, Jaksch & Frost ?

Pick 3 on its own would be very unlikely to get us Shiel if he was on the table.

Pick 23 on its own would definitely not get us Tomlinson - he is close to worth a top 5 pick.

I don't rate Shiel at the same rate as Danger at this point in time; so I think 3 is overs atmo.

Tomlinson I'm surprised at your quote, but can't dispute it..... but it seems Jaksch is rated by clubs atmo,,, & is seen at around P-10ish, so I imagine Tomlinson worth less than that?

If Shiel wanted to go, three would certainly satisfy them. In fact, I'd be wanting a pick back with him. Probably a first rounder. I think we just have to keep thinking about that Judd trade. Okay, it was a while ago and a different landscape, but it still holds some water.

And I don't see why pick 23 couldn't get the Tomlinson deal done if we wanted him.

How is Shiel in same category as Judd?

Judd had just captained WC to a flag and won a Brownlow prior to being traded to the Blues, Shiel has done SFA.

Even Dangerfield is not in Judd's league (when he was traded).

Judd's achievements prior to being traded in 2007

Shiel's achievements prior to now

:o:rolleyes::wacko:

Good thing some on here are not in charge of our list management.

Would trade away all our picks for a hand full of magic beans.

I have faith that those pulling the strings will not get bent over the trade table anymore.

If a decent deal presents itself we will pursue it, if it involves paying overs we walk away.

No trades are happening for anyone so far, just remember there is still a week to go.

If none present themselves we go to the draft extremely well armed.

Win / win.

Exactly. Therefore, pick 3 for Shiel and a first rounder is not out of the realms of possibility.

    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
