What

Recommended Posts

Stringer and 6 or NO key forward. Next

Fitzpatrick as a sweetener? Still win/win

Then pick 3 to swans for Mitchell and Membrey. Membrey to replace fitzy..

The only player of value that they would trade is Hrovat, who doesn't match Roos want for bigger bodied mids.

Stringer, Mcrae, Libba etc. are the future of their club, we wouldn't trade Tyson, Viney or Hogan for a 3 pick upgrade + 2nd rounder.

As others have said, it will likely be pick 3 for pick 6 and 26 if it happens. If they get a band 2 compo pick (end of 1st round) for Higgins we'd be asking for that (but it's likely to be band 3 - after 2nd round pick).

We would then on-trade or package the Higgins compo for an experienced player.

If they can figure out a way to get Greenwood from North and convince him to come to us or work it into a 3-way trade I'd do that. They can probably use either one (or both - though probably too much) of their second round picks to get Greenwood then on trade him to us with 6 for pick 2.

Yes please. Like the idea of Greenwood paying for us next year. Strong, solid mid.

But a decent KPF is also "the future of their club". And if they get one, they won't even notice having 5 potentially A-grade mids instead of 6.

Do they have anybody on that rung between Stringer/Macrae/Libba/Bont and Hrovat/Wallis?

Too late. They already have pick 26... assuming they don't pick up a FA.

How bout this:

Pick 27 (Western Bulldogs as per your scenario above) for Merrett & Pick 36 (Geelong, maybe even snag a Varcoe with it, he'd be an upgrade on Bail's role on the HFF imo) for Lumumba or vice versa - (note, pick numbers based on compo/extra picks for Melb, GWS, GC & Doggies). Or we could just go direct to Brissy with a Pick 2 for 5 swap for Merrett, with the higher pick for collingwood giving them Petracca or one of the 2 bigs leaving Brayshaw to us at 3 & pick 5 still to trade for a either a gun young mid or another Tyson style downgrade.

Would be awesome for us, but other clubs seem to be into him too & probably willing to offer a higher pick imo, even higher than our pick 23.

We already have Hogan, they don't. They will need to do something and will need to pay to fix it. I don't think they have the guts to do it.

Forget Hrovat, he's not of that value.

The Age article indicates the Pies and Dogs are into him - Richmond were enquiring but didn't really go any further. Both us and Footscray will have picks before Collingwoods second rounder.

Is Greenwood and North's Pick 15 a possibility for Pick 3?

Gives us Pick 2 - Brayshaw ? Petracca

Greenwood

Pick 15 (say Weller/De Goey)

(Maybe a swap of picks later in the piece)

I'm all for downgrading one of our earlier picks ala the Tyson deal, but 3 to 15 seems a large jump for mine.

Would havee thought Greenwoods value to be around early second rounder, recon 26 would do it?

Trade 3 for 6& 26, on trade to roos.

Although they'll prob ask for our early second rounder, hopefully we don't have to spend that one on the little Ironman :P

I dont really understand why the Dogs want to trade down anyway? Assuming Lions trade their pick 5 to the Pies for Beams the Dogs still get one of McCartin or Wright as you'd assume the Pies would use the pick on a mid with Moore in the bag.

Edit - actually I guess the risk is we trade the pick to someone else who is after a KPF.

Greenwood has had one good season, was nearly on the scrapheap a year ago. He's saved his career but is he really worth pick 3? I wouldn't have thought so.

I agree, we shoulda coulda got him then for nothing but we didn't, nor did any other club.

I'm just asking the question is Greenwood and 15 (and say maybe a swap of Norths 2nd for or our 3rd for instance) worth Pick 3?

I don't believe I said we should trade Greenwood for Pick 3.

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last
