Good they got that deal out of the way in the first couple of hours, more will flow...

 

Geelong recruiting team are building a big hole of no youth to try maintain their ladder position. Repercussions is going to be gold

Get real. They've got a stack of promising young players to compliment elite players in Dangerfield and Selwood. They've done it brilliantly. They've brought in Dangerfield, S.Selwood, Henderson and Z.Smith and given up picks in a year that has a shallow draft.
 

The Danger deal was a good trade to open the week. Seemed to be the elephant in the room over the last couple of weeks.

But he's still a chance to come to Melb right????


So he is saying we don't want to trade any players is that right??Or we cant trade players for the right or any deal. What about Dawes or Spencer?Did he mention them??

Yeah, He's going on trade radio to tell the other 17 clubs exactly what we are doing.

Makes it slightly awkward when we don't trade a player and we have shopped them all over town but I'm sure the players dont read the press and will give their all next year......

crows should've, and probably did, demand first two first rounders for 2015 and 2016 and a player.

dangerfield is probably a top 10 player in the competition and all cats have given up are speculative draft picks.

bargain.

Rumours that Goddard wants out on SEN and Tigers interested in Grimes. Id take Ben Lennon thanks

Definitely a bargain, but would have been a far greater bargain had they got him for free. In the end, I think it is a mature trade, made on the first day of trade period, so hats off to both Geelong and Adelaide.

I take it that's Goddard from Essendon? During his segment on AFL 360 each week he can't talk highly enough of the club and how much he loves being there..

Nice that he likes it. Fair enough to want out of the saints at the time but the club he has gone to has provided loads of pain for him and no flag. The bummer fans are certainly 100 % behind him so thats a comfort for Brendan.

Restricted Free Agency just worked quite well in the eyes of the Player Assoc.

The club has no chance to keep the player that wants to go but at least they get more value than if Danger was unrestricted.

I would tweak the FA rules but this one went well for the competition.

I've been saying since FA was bought in that the receiving club should have to give up something. This is what happened with Geelong and Danger.

Excellent result.

Absolutely, we have players and picks to offer.

Would make sense by the Tigers to unite the Grimes brothers.


So they can complete the set of modest players?

Anyway, both Grimeses live in Melbourne. They probably unite every weekend at their parents house for a Sunday roast.

But they are not allowed to discuss game plans and they come to Mums' in different colored T-Shirts.

The rumours of Goddard im aware of have nothing to do with Brendan.

Just heard that Danger has told Geelong that he wants a trade to Hawthorn.

Hugh? Make a play. Kid will be a very good player.

Funny that the complicated Dangerfield deal got done first, before some relatively straightforward ones.

Brendan

As much as I'd like Swan Josh Kennedy leading our midfield - how about re-uniting our own skipper's brother; Zak at Sydney. He played in the finals, add some in and under.

Not a terrible call although we could have drafted him.

just on trade radio Dodoro confirming that Melksham to melbourne for our 2nd round pick

  • PREVIEW: West Coast

    Saturday’s election night game in Perth between the West Coast Eagles and Melbourne represents 18th vs 15th which makes it a tough decision as to which party to favour. The Eagles have yet to break the ice under their new coach in Andrew McQualter who is the second understudy in a row to confront Demon Coach Simon Goodwin who was also winless until a fortnight ago. On that basis, many punters might be considering to go with the donkey vote but I’ve been assigned with the task of helping readers to come to a considered opinion on this matter of vital importance across the nation. It was almost a year ago that I wrote a preview here of the Demons’ away game against the Eagles (under the name William from Waalitj because it was Indigenous Round).  I issued a warning that it was a danger game, based on my local knowledge that the home team were no longer easybeats and that they possessed a wunderkind generational player in Harley Reid who was capable of producing stellar performances playing among men a decade and more older than he.  At the time, the Eagles already had two wins off the back of a couple of the young man’s masterclasses and they had recently given the Bombers a scare straight after their Anzac Day blockbuster draw against the then reigning premiers.

On Election Night a Blockbuster will see the ladder-leading Pies take on the Cats, who are keen to bounce back after a narrow loss. On Sunday the Sydney Derby promises fireworks as the Giants aim to cement their top-eight status, while the Swans fight to keep their season alive.

Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • REPORT: Richmond

    The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

  • CASEY: Richmond

    The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.
