What

Recommended Posts

I posted earlier that the man we want may not be Parish.

What if we know Bombers are desperate for Parish?

What if we let it be known we want Parish?

We then get pick 3.

We offer Parish and 10 to Bombers for 4 and 5.

Bombers get their man.

We get both of ours.

Good conspiracy theory or not?

Only one problem you are talking about Essendrug!

Yes, but if Dees find out they want another player (not Parish) who we also want (for example Curnow), Dees hold tight on 3.

Was just thinking about GWS and their drafting. They have had the cream of draft picks and so many are gone or are on the way out.

Yet there is hardly a comment in the medya about them unlike the Dees that have copped it from pillar to post.

They have lost:

Pick 1

Boyd

pick 2

O'Rourke

pick 3

Plowman

tyson

Pick 12

Jaksch

Hoskin Elliot and Buntine look like busts and I can't be bothered going trough the rest of them but plenty are looking to leave....

This is all off the top of my head so stand to be corrected slightly but....

Swapped Boyd for pick 4 and Griffen...hardly a bust.

O'Rourke and Plowman haven't worked out but they still got a late round first pick so not a total disaster unlike our Morton, Watts, Gysberts picks (I'd add Trengove but jury still out due to injury)

Essentially swapped Tyson for Josh Kelly who'll be a gun, win-win

They ended up getting pick 7 and 19 in return for Jaksch Mark Whiley

Buntine is average but Hoskin Elliot is definitely not a bust. GWS will be a powerhouse and it's just a matter of time. We seem to have a good relationship with these expansion clubs in terms of swapping picks which is interesting.

GWS now have pick 7 - Treloar

Edit: - Trying to work out what that means to us.

thanks md.

so currently our pick 10 is worth pick 9 (as 6 will used for academy pick of gcs)

Not sure if the Suns have any academy kid who will cost them that much though. They have a few coming through next year, which is why they took our first rounder next year for them.

Whoops!!!

GNF you're an absolute muppet. From all the un-eventuated cr@p you dribbled last trade period to the above opinion that directly contradicted what Mahoney said on the radio, i'd have more belief in a mail-box than the stuff you hear!

DD, show some class and calm down. I said at the beginning of this trade period that I no longer had the info flow from the club. Surprise, surprise I was spoken to for saying too much last, this year I was not given the privilege. I was only told one thing this season and that is the club was going hard for Prestia........ which was hardly a secret. The club was confident in getting him. Maybe that will be next year. Last year we went all out for Danger, I said this, we failed. Why abuse me? Perhaps you need to talk to someone about your anger?

This year, clearly I got the trading for a player thing wrong. I never said I knew this, or had been given inside info. It was just joining the dots. I was wrong.

I'm loving this! Almost as good as beating Geelong at the Cattery and the Filth at the 'G'.

If we get 3 and 7 this year, and it's cost us 6 and next year's first round pick, then it has to be a brilliant trade period.

2 x top 7 draft picks this year, plus the rooking upgrade of AvB and possibly Harmes, in a draft that is meant to drop away significantly after the higher picks.

Plus we've gained Melksham, Kennedy and Bugg (probable), at the cost of Howe and Toumpas.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
