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.

GWS now have pick 7 - Treloar

good. so we effectively have pick 3 and 8 so upgrading 10 to gcs's pick 6 only gets us 2 further down

That will be used on an academy player so our ten is now 8

Correct?

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.

So are we now sitting with GWS to get 7 we give them 10 & 43 50 for 7 &Bugg

That would just about get us what we want.

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

Not quite


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.

Fitzpatrick to the Hawks for pick 94.

Brett Anderson tossing up a hypothetical

7 + Bugg for 10, 43, 50

yes please. Throw in pick 94 we just got for Fitzy.

it's only really an effective upgrade of 2, so might do it cheaper (i.e. keep 43)??

Fitzpatrick to the Hawks for pick 94.

break out the champagne :)

that should get us an a grader

 

Biggest deal of the trade period so far.

Undoubtedly the biggest deal today. Norm Smith Medal opportunity in 2016.

  • DRAFT: The Next Generation

    It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

  • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

    A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
