Trade Radio Discussion

is that necessarily an argument not to do it however ? Just asking

The Roos way us to bring in players to fill specific roles. I would have thought we would go this way. Possibly Goody and Macca prefer to hone some sapling into that player. Just a thought.

Can we temp fill the assistant fwd role til a newbie develops ?

We're not going to perfect a side in 2015/2016

All that said id be surprised of we have a decent pick if it doesn't go to a 185 sized prototype style mid who a foity talent first...athlete 2nd

No, go for it if he is the best talent - just a statement of consistent fact - tall forwards invariably take a few years to be ready for AFL footy.

 

Just on trade radio,

Melbourne are in negotiation with Suns to guarantee a draft pick that will give us Darcy Parrish.

Please explain...or at least, elaborate.

So our recruiting team are not sleeping?

So GC give us two pick upgrades coz we are so nice and polite?

Alright I forgot the bleeding obvious "Howe" does that make it better.

Why do we seem to be so red-hot for Parish? Anyone?

Probably the only mid in the draft (apart from academy selections) that doesn't have any glaring weaknesses.

Inside/outside type with good skills and excellent vision.

Maybe we're pushing up his value so another may drop

They think he is a poor player and dont want to spoil their record of picking poor players with early picks!

My wild guess is he is a good player.

just a guess of course.

What seemed a year ago. The Suns and Dee's were looking at trading Howe and pick 6, for Pick 3 and another pick.

Those numbers weren't quite stacking up for the Suns.

Now that the Pies are on the scene, they may have re thought the numbers, so they can get Howe.


They are talking to Dangerfield on Trade Radio at the moment.

Time to tune out.

I reckon Hodge would say, that head needs whacking.

Patrick has spoken very well and I'm better for understanding him as a person for listening and tuning in.

For those of you who have or haven't travelled through Moggs Creek, it's a great spot despite no shops, milk bars or pubs. If you've travelled down the Great Ocean Rd, Moggs Creek is only a few kms past Aireys Inlet. In fact, if you blink you might well miss it if travelling down the coastline. Beautiful part of the world, particularly on a day like today with blueskies. Hard to believe a star of the AFL spent his childhood there. He and his extended family originate from Moggs Creek. I dare say the Dangerfield's would have a fair slice of Moggs Creeks population.

Alright I forgot the bleeding obvious "Howe" does that make it better.

Well, the 'bleeding obvious' has a trade veto and doesn't want to go to GC...


Seems more and more likely that toumpas will stay.

Doesn't seem like any club will offer anything in the top 30.

Any pick over 30 would be unders for jimmy imo.

That sounds almost as quaint a town and as wonderful a coastal community as Scarborough, WA. Home to the Hogan family dynasty

Yuk,,,,, just yuk

Does he get a choice?

Surely Melbourne deserve silver than pocket full of marbles.

Zac smith to cats for picks 49 & 50.


Daniel Currie to Suns for pick 53

Well, if the team offering silver cannot get him to agree - we won't get silver.

He can veto any and all trades, as any player can.

Yeah but then at least in a few years Jesse will have a mate- what can we do now? There's no guarantee we can draft one in and our war chest might as well be filled with Monopoly money.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • 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

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    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.
