Good! I like that we don't leak like a sieve anymore.

Nearly all trade stories are leaked from player agents rather than clubs.

    It was a fair post responded with arrogance name won star mid u 26 if Roos doesn't get one in this trade period he's failed in that regard in my opinion, that's why people post isn't it to express opinions just because a guy has 6000 post doesn't mean he knows more than the next, the guys comeback was rude so expect the same back

    I reckon Brayshaw, Tyson & Petracca for a start...but time will tell.

    Have you got a left handed hammer I could borrow.

    Yes, but you need to get some left-handed nails to use it on .

    Nails with a point on each end save time because you don't have spend a second working out which way they go in.

    Noted I'm not here to make enemys

    You're going about that terribly.

    Your 4th post here was to tell a respected poster they had no football knowledge and should be embarrassed. All over the incredibly complex topic of body language on the field. Completely unwarranted.

    We have enough angst in this joint without you adding to it for no good reason.

    You done nothing wrong mate, just some people here who think their opinions are the only ones need to chill instead of paying out on fellow supporters for having alternate opinions. It's pathetic really.

    I had to google him as well. We all should know Bird, Robinson plays wing/half forward.

    Not sure how to post links but from reading on the swans website he's been stuck in the NEAFL behind sone pretty handy players.

    I don't mind trading any player on our list but I want QUALITY in return otherwise it's another waste of a trade/pic.

    No thanks. I'd take Bird as a delisted free agent, nothing more, and know nothing about Robinson.

    I guess Bird isn't the fish we're looking for

    beyond left field. ......

    Sign where ? :rolleyes:

  • Quote

    He did stress it was a rumour but it's what he heard.

    I look at it this way, Robinson could be the next VB or could be the next Cook. Watts needs a fresh start, if he's on 3-400k that's extra cap space to throw at someone else. We may not get back what we perceive to be of equal value, for us it might be about the extra money.

    Small part of a big picture.

    The Swans signed Robinson as a 14 year old

    Imo there is no chance he moves clubs

  • Quote

    Goodes spent the later part of his career as a half forward plus they have lost/are going to loose Jetta. They have a surplus of inside players. Watts gets out of the Melbourne spotlight.

  • Quote

    I actually dont mind this...fiction /non...not fussed as a point of discussion.

    The 2 birds are speculative. WATTS is also really...will he/won't he ?

    Two get chances where where they are is currently limited. One gets to reboot.

    Interesting

    Getting Robinson would be just getting another Aidan Riley.

    No thanks!

    I like it, Craig Bird is walk up start to our best 22, and a serious upgrade on Matt Jones and co, knows the Swans game style well and should fit in nicely, and Watts gets out of Melbourne and into a team that can use his Weapons rather than highlight his weaknesses

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
