Deep throat tells me we are enquiring as to Sydney's Josh Kennedy.

We had a go last year, didn't we?

 

Next week is going to be full on.

Our list is going to look very different

It had to happen.

Drinks...

Captain Obvious to the rescue.

(nar WYL I heard Paul the other day saying it didn't have to happen and he wanted to keep the list as it is...)

Yes Adam. If you don't succeed....

Just home...just read this... hole in one ...well done

others could learn

Agree - good work Mr Smoker !!

Griffen's move must put us in the game. The Bulldogs want early picks to use on this year's crop of talls - and we are the only sellers around. If they can drag a young gun out of GWS for Griffen and give him to us - the Bulldogs can get what they want.

Patton's knee has gone and they wont get Boyd. What other currency can GWS offer them?

If the Doggies could get a top 10 pick and a guy like Tomlinson out of this disaster they'll be doing well.

Once again, where has this come from? Multiple posters are sprouting this.

They may not be able to stop him, mate. If he says he wants to come back to Victoria and the MFC can offer pick 2 or 3, I think they take it and run. It's the same leverage we have with Dangerfield. We're actually incredibly lucky with this new FA paradigm (that has encouraged players, young and old to request a new home at will) coming into play when we have all these picks. Roos and co have been ready for it though. It's sounding ominous to me...in a good way.

I heard Wallet say it on trade radio, something along the lines of Petracca is the kid they really want if they can get him. But your point stands, I don't have evidence myself.

Now do you have any evidence Treloar wants back to VIC?

I don't have evidence of Treloar, because I wasn't saying he did want to come back to Victoria. If we were after him, we'd have to convince him presumably.
 

Someone just posted in the Potential trades thread, SEN have reported Dangerfield and Treloar are coming.

That would be the best outcome possible.

In some ways I would prefer Treloar to Danger and, like most here, I rate him in the top few of the league. Dangerfield, Jones, Treloar, Tyson, Viney and Cross gives us top 8 potential.

I'll believe that when I see it!!!

I want to believe it. I really do. But nah, not going to happen.

Someone just posted in the Potential trades thread, SEN have reported Dangerfield and Treloar are coming.

Ended up that it was just Jay Clark on SEN saying that if Dees traded Trengove for pick 12, it could give them enough early picks to be able to trade for two guys of the calibre of Dangerfield and Treloar.

It's not like the pen is hovering over the dotted line.

Richmond were to complete their medical assessment of JT this morning.

Keep hearing rumblings about some A Graders on route to the dees. Talks with Port Adelaide are ongoing about the offloading of pick 12 to them but that is old news when it comes our way for Trenners. It will be a sad day to see the heart and soul of our club to go. But we will lose more off field than we will on field. His best seems behind him which is strange for a 23 y.o. He isnt going to get any quicker.

As happy as I would be to head to the draft with Picks 2 and 3 and take home two of McCartin, Petracca, Brayshaw (who has injured his foot) I just cant see Roos going around with more kids. The expectation will be for Salem to really step up this year and unless traded the likes of Toumpas and Viney will be expected to have break out years after three preseasons.

So with a little more than 60 hours to go until the close of trade week, some big names are to be thrown around and expected to land. Its the unspoken ones which seem secondary to Beams, Griffan, Ryder and co.

Game on Roosey.

It is often mentioned that Roos has said something to the effect of not wanting too many kids, does anyone actually have the quote. As i wonder if he was referring to light underdeveloped players as opposed to some of the big bodied draftees available.

The quote was that he didn't draft talls out of the TAC. The reasons being that TAC rules don't allow flooding/ double teaming and that you don't know what the quality of opposition they're playing on is like each week, eg one week they're on someone the same size, the next they're playing on someone a foot shorter than them.

I reckon we'll work this all out buy late Thursday

buy the way :cool:

Luke Parker.....................

Luke Parker.....................

Could we be that fortunate? Hell, I'd trade 90% of the team for a player like that.

Luke Parker.....................

would be a dream scanario

still young, about to tun 22 and averaged 26 touches, 6 tackles and kicked 25 goals

On the verge of greatness this kid, he is just so damaging

Just won the Swans B&F. They won't trade him in a pink fit.

Might be time to get comfortable with the fact that there is no hidden target and Lamumba, Garlett and Frost might be it.

We only had 3 trades last year too.

Trade week(s) is notorious for the panicked last day.Still 2 days to go ^_^

We are secretly/quietly pressing hard for a midfielder from ****** who was at the Brownlow night. Will have to move from where he lives though.

  • 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

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    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.
