Dees Trade Pick 6 and 2016 1st round for Picks 3 and 10

SEN just reported this trade with GCS.

    Great news. Probably the biggest and most important trade we have done in the whole period.

    In my opinion, this is the best deal we may ever have done besides Farmer for Phil Gilbert!

    Up there with Tyson/Salem deal too.. Who's hating on Mahoney now???

    The full story from the club http://www.melbournefc.com.au/news/2015-10-21/dees-secure-picks-no3-and-no10"It means Melbourne now has picks No.3, No.10, No.43, No.46 and No.50 in this year’s draft, as opposed to No.6, No.29, No.46, No.50 and No.64",

    Not to mention the player trades.

    Agree with Mahoney - it is a great deal!

    So apparently we didn't get screw-ed by Howe leaving for the pies not GCS. Mahoney says: “Importantly, the deal signed this morning was the original deal proposed with Gold Coast involving Jeremy Howe. We have just replaced the Howe to Gold Coast component with pick No.29 – the pick we received from Collingwood in the Howe trade.

    Depending on who is available next year and how well we finish, this could either be a huge win or a epic failure.

    As long as they have done their due diligence, im happy for the club to take a punt.

    This should silence a few.

    Nice work Dees FD.

    Wow, pleasantly surprised. Great deal.

    I like it. Makes finishing higher next season even more important now. Imagine if we finished last and meant we were coughing up pick 1, but obviously, hopefully, that won't happen.

  • Quote

    it all depends on where you think we will finish next year.

    We may have given up a pick 6, 9 and 29 for 3,10, 44

    If we have another bad year we could be giving up a pick 6, 2 and 29.

    I think Josh Mahoney may now be owed a few apologies!

    Terrible deal. How the [censored] do we expect to get Prestia now!?!?!?

    I think pick 3 looks like Parish. I wonder who will be in our sights at pick 10?

    Worry about that next year. We have to fix the here and now.

    We could trade our 2017 first round pick for him. Or trade in another 1st rounder and on-trade it to GCS. I'm sure the club knows what it's doing.

    Trade a first round pick for 2017 picks?

    So at this stage, Parish is looking likely at pick 3. Any ideas towards who pick 10 is intended for?

    Could be Parish or Curnow at 3.

    Weideman still a chance at 10, Mathieson around the mark. maybe even Tucker if we look at injecting a bit of pace off half back into the wing.

    I hope we climb quickly next year, because I rate next year's crop VERY highly.

    Is it possible that we use some of these highh draft pick numbers to go after Prestia again for 2016?

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
