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.

    Thanks ManDee, oh how happy you made me!

    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.

  • Quote

    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.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

    • CASEY: Williamstown

      The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

      Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

      The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
