Another guy who has had multiple hip operations? Yikes

I wouldn't worry about that, he's quick as [censored] from what I've seen.

    Afterthought...looking at the still on the video, Ricky Petterd in a blonde wig, anyone else see the likeness?

    IGAG do I know you? Or is is the Mandy reference?

    Because that Barry Manilow image looks a lot like me in my youth, particularly the sequined vest.

    maybe i am wrong I read it as 2 nd pick meaning 2 round pick pick ??

    It could be as suggested, pick 23 to Blues for Garlett and 28, we give 28 to GWS, get Garlett and Frost for 23.

    Maybe we even get a later pick back, given the O'Rourke deal just done. Then use that on Grimley.

    the article definitely said Melbourne's second pick, not pick 2

    LOL. You could be right there. I saw it as second pick in the draft but the other was makes sense. Still far too much for a rookie who isn't a starter for them unless there are injuries.

    Yeah they just traded a pick #2 from a couple of years ago for #19, how can they ask for 23 for Frost.

    From a friend that coached Frosty at Wesley note that Sam can play at both ends. He has played down back at GWS but is equally as comfortable up forward. I note in the "Potential trades" thread that many think we don't need another back man well Frosty is a potential swingman in the same way Frawley was this year.

    I hope he's a better forward than Frawley.

    So, anyone confused about how this deal will happen now?

    Our third rounder is for Stretch, our fourth rounder went to Carlton for Garlett and our fifth rounder is for Jetta.

    So... are we trying to get two players for our second rounder? Frost plus a third rounder?

  • Quote

    Pre season draft.

    Wouldn't surprise me. Basically get him for free unless GWS want a fifth rounder.

    We could probably bring in a fourth round pick in another trade and give them that. I'd say 83 is reserved for Jetta now though.

    Late draft picks have zero value to GWS.

    I would have said the same about unproven skinny discards, they have a list full of them.

    Not sure where this leaves us but hopefully we work something out.

    Maybe something else will be coming our way from Geelong for MC ?

  • Quote

    I think the holdup with Geelong is just the Buckley/Varcoe/Bali situation.

    But there were rumours about the second and third rounders being packaged. So we'd get Lamumba and Geelong's third rounder.

    We need to use a pick in the draft to upgrade Jetta to our senior list, as he was technically a rookie list player this year.

    Yep, that's what's holding it up IMO. Varcoe to Collingwood, MC to Geelong, GP and Geelongs second rounder to Melbourne.

    so, use 199

    If we traded away pick 83 we could still use pick 97

    Could just tell GWS they can have our second rounder for their second rounder and Frost, or else we'll take him for free in the PSD. They get a mildly better pick and don't lose him for nothing.

    • 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.
