    oh dear, what a pity

    guess we'll just have to settle for a 2nd rounder or yarran

    Can't imagine getting much for him. He's delivered very little but I reckon in a good environment he could actually do ok. Would be very happy with a 3rd rounder, and if they want to do a trade for Yarran plus maybe a pick upgrade for Carlton.

    Surely not a swap for Robinson. Please god no!

    This one is going straight on Super's list of horrible things to have happened to the Melbourne Football Club; lose top draft pick who never delivered, got Mitch Robinson back.

    Kill me now.

    A first rounder with years of development? I expect the same in return.

    We won't get much, will end up being something like a Morton deal just to get him off the list.

    Kane Lucas would be like for like.

    Not excited...

    Can't say I'm interested in many of Carlton's players. Or at least, none that could be realistically available.

    Just a pick upgrade, thanks. Cheers.

    Blease's problem is endurance. In the modern game pace is useless unless you also have the endurance to run hard from first bounce to final siren of every quarter.

    thanks moonie, now that you had to go and say that we'll probably get him now, ffs

  • Quote

    As per tradition shurely the CEOs will seal the deal with a handshake and Bleasey will head off to Carlton for their first rounder.

  • Quote

    I'd send him packing for Garlett. At least Jeffy boy has proved he can play a full year and kick some sausages.

    But really couldn't care either way

  • Quote

    I reckon he might have been an excellent attacking player to use as a specialist substitute. He could have easily broken the lines and kicked goals when the opposition were stuffed but I am sure there will be many that will disagree with me and I am just simply stating an opinion. He is also a top bloke, not that being a good bloke is particularly relevant to football but I am sure that he is popular at he club.

    Blease for Gartlett... fair swap

    It is a fair swap but also is it a waste of paperwork? Their defensive abilities are as bad as each others

  • Quote

    He'll come on next year, just like sylvia...

    • AFLW PREVIEW: West Coast

      Epic battle alert.  This Sunday, Casey Fields hosts a coach’s showdown pitting the wits of the master Mick Stinear (92 games, 71.7% win rate) against his protégé Daisy Pearce (16 games, 43.8%). Still early in her coaching journey, Daisy’s record doesn’t yet reflect her impact — but she’s already the best-performed coach at West Coast.Dais’ is mythic.  Like Katniss Everdeen, everyone either wants to kiss her, kill her (sporting metaphor) or be her.  Toothers Daisy Pearce is a role model, someone admired for their heart, humility and humour.

    • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.
