OK Mahoney haters, eat some pie.

 

Go watch the film Draft Day and pretend Kevin Costner is playing Josh Mahoney - zero to hero!

Edited by Senegor


How about this for a deal,

Pick 50, 46, and 6 to GWS for Bugg, pick 8 and 27. GWS lose Bugg for a 103 point gain, equivalent of about pick 60 (may be a little low).

We then trade pick 8,29, and 27 to GC for Pick 3 and a player worth about pick 30. We gain Parish in the draft, which we want, and GC get an extra 673 points minus a player worth about 673 points (pick 30ish).

leaves us with few draft picks but we get the two players we want and some steak knives from GC.

Going to blow my own trumpet again, wasn't far off in the whole thing, picks changed a little and the order of the trades changed but the outcome is about the same.

TOOT TOOT.

Better than watching Moneyball and finding Mark Neeld playing Billy Beane!!!

 

This points system is working a treat for us

Also, in more exciting news, we just got pick 94 for Fitzy! #winning

(in all seriousness, that is not bad, since we can use that to upgrade Harmes or Vanders with that)

OK Mahoney haters, eat some pie.

They were always going to. So many people on here are short sighted during this period.

Melksham, Kennedy, Bugg and 2 picks inside the Top 10. Brilliant work.

Plus we can now all watch another 2 minute highlight video of Bugg's best work. Has to be the best part about the trade really...

Actually good, another rookie upgrade

Didn't we lose that in the original trade for 10?

I've lost track but I thought we now had 3 and 7, then not appear in the draft again til 50 odd.

Yep, my bad, forgot int eh excitement.

If we use that pick to upgrade a Vandenberg or Harmes then it's #epicwinning

Why trade 3 and 7 for 4 and 5, if we take parish at 3 then we are guaranteed to land one of curnow, weideman, francis or the SA forward who name escapes my memory. We may as well keep our picks.

Get the best mid (Parish) and a highly rated key forward to partner hogan.

*Edit Burton is the SA key forward

It also shows as well that with Frost and Bugg now crossing over that Voldemort's tales of Melbourne being a bucket shop organization are falling on deaf ears!


Mahoney and co should just not even turn up tomorrow and leave a note on our trade desk that says "Out to lunch".

Better than watching Moneyball and finding Mark Neeld playing Billy Beane!!!

Too soon Billy... Too Soon

We now get to ruin the dreams of Essendon (picks 4 and 5) and Carlton (pick 8)

This is too good.

Net result:

IN:

ND PICKS 3,7,46,50

Melksham, Kennedy, Bugg

OUT:

Started with 6,25,...Toumpas, Howe

RESULT:

Overall significant improvement in draft position including two top 10 picks. Targeted 3 x 20-24 yo players and got them.

First round as it stands:

ROUND ONE CARL 1. Carlton BL 2. Brisbane Lions MELB 3. Melbourne (received from Gold Coast in an exchange of picks) ESS 4. Essendon ESS 5. Essendon (received from St Kilda as part of the trade for Jake Carlisle) GCFC 6. Gold Coast (received from Melbourne in an exchange of picks) MELB 7. Melbourne (received from GWS as part of the trade for Tom Bugg; received by GWS from Collingwood as part of the trade for Adam Treloar) CARL 8. Carlton (received from GWS as part of the trade for Lachie Plowman, Jed Lamb, Andrew Phillips and Liam Sumner) ADEL 9. Adelaide (received from Geelong as part of the trade for Patrick Dangerfield) GWS 10. Greater Western Sydney (received from Melbourne as part of the trade for Tom Bugg; received from Gold Coast in an exchange of picks, originally from Port Adelaide as part of the trade for Charlie Dixon) WB 11. Western Bulldogs RICH 12. Richmond ADEL 13. Adelaide STK 14. St Kilda (received from the Sydney Swans as part of the Jake Carlisle-Craig Bird trade) HAW 15.

Those two guys are both wearing Dwight Howard's numbers on their shirts! Not a good omen to put that on here when talking of recruiting coups!


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....

they've also lost the plot

10,43,64 for Bugg and 7. Hung onto the pick int he 20's as a bonus!!!!

what pick in the 20s? that went earlier

 

I want our group playing poker for me any day of the week.

Straight face, Straight bat.

What was itv2 hours ago, definitely going into the trade with 3 & 10.

Now 3 &7 and Bugg and the fat lady isn't singing yet.

I hope that we are seriously looking at Jones and Terlich's contracts as it would be a shame to merely use picks 46 & 50 on rookie upgrades when there may be somebody that the FD finds more suited to our needs ( now that we have traded in some midfield depth)!

  • 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

    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.
