So twice in a generation talent?

I would. You Victorians can keep your own basket cases. Don't be sending them here.

I hope the Suns are right pricks about this trade. Ask for the world and don't budge.  Sorry Jaeger - best we could do was Brisbane. I'm tired of restricted players declaring where they want to

I don't want Prestia. I've just been watching O'Meara playing. He's sublime, once in a generation talent. The club should go hard and land this guy. He would make us a Premiership chance.

O My, he;s seriously good. He's every bit as talented as dangerfield

As long as the medical team can work their magic.

I posted on another thread that I thought he was the one we should go after provided we can be comfortable with his medical.  

I think the list is good and deep enough that we can take a bit of a risk, depending on what GC want in trade.  

He hasn't played in 2 years so they can't expect a Treloar style trade.

I agree not 2 first rounders but it would definitely be a 1st round pick

His trade value would be a really interesting debate, i suspect he's probably worth 1 first round pick given his talent and the investment the Suns have put into him, but given the financial side of a deal it would take to get him, that would reflect an Adam Treloar type deal so two picks, 

i'd only really want him to come to the Dees if it was a trade for our second round pick and we didn't pay more than 500k a year for him, which obviously is no chance of happening

A fit O'Meara could take us from possible finalist to possible flag chance.

Sometimes you need to play the percentages and others you need to pull the trigger. 

Must have a close look at him.

Nope. 

High Risk plus VERY high price.

Don't get me wrong, great player and all, but I don't think good value for us.

That said, I'd hardly complain.

Our best mids have come through the draft, except Dom and Salem, who were traded for with a pick.

However, if we knew he was fit and was gettable, you would have to try. He would probably cost a couple of decent players or our first 2017 pick and a player.

ATM being still injured, he would be a huge risk and would eat up a bit of salary cap as well.

2 top 10 picks according to Rocket. Compares him to Treloar in terms of quality and trade value.

If fit i'd agree, but O'Meara is not fit, in fact he has not play an AFL game for 2 years now. This significantly diminishes his trade value to either 2 x later first round picks, or 1xtop10 & 1 x 2nd round pick, if GC are lucky.

O'Meara is out of contract and if he chooses to leave, GC will need to accept the best offer that is given to them.

I'm sure GCS would say "fine, if you don't think he's worth it, we're happy to keep him anyway."

It's not a fire sale; if anyone wants O'Meara, they're going to have to pay for him like he is fit or they simply won't get him.

No from me too. We're almost at the stage where we can choose the guys that actually want to play for Melbourne. Unless O'Meara nominates us and then is prepared to come over for $500k (not going to happen), then we should stay away.

We took Salem in the draft, pick 9 (Salem) came with Tyson.

Correct. So only one of our best mids, Tyson was traded for. Now some will throw in Bernie as well, but I was making a general point.

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    The Demons once again went goalless in the last quarter and were run down by the Lions at the Gabba in the final minutes of the match ultimately losing the game by 5 points as their percentage dips below 100 for the first time since 2020.

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi
