Jarryd Lyons

[spirit of norm smith 15,142]

Not sure if you're aware mate, but recruiting decisions aren't based on a Demonland consensus.

Shut down all posts that don't have a direct line to Paul Roos, Peter Jackson or Todd Viney.

My post is an OPINION ... get it !!!

Negative. Neanderthal. Need I continue.

Put the tampon back in, mate.

Now this is interesting.......tells me he could be part of the Danger deal.

Pick 2 and 3 for Danger and Lyons.

[Deez 298]

i like that, do it

Not necessarily. We courted Lyons last year as well. It's only natural we'd caught him again as his situation hasn't really changed much and neither has ours. We still need more mids.

I'd much rather pick 10 than Lyons, personally.

[Beats 190]

Could anyone see a Toumpas + our 4th round (59ish) for Lyons and their 2nd (30ish)?

No thankyou. Lyons is a good value pick up for around a 3rd rounder.

so many people writing off Toumpas

[Grimes Times 1,278]

Hasnt been offered a contract yet although Adel have said hes required.

Just get him to walk to the Pre-Season Draft, although StK can stuff that up

Not writing Toumpas off - You've got to give something to get something.

He's not worth our 2nd round and hopefully our 3rd round is reserved for Stretch. Our fourth round will probably be too low at pick 60ish and we don't have many players with currency.

The deal I put forward is essentially Toumpas and steak knives for Lyon and a pick we can swap for Lumumba. Two top 25 players for one we barely saw in 2014. I'd certainly think about that deal (although I might be over-rating Lyon).

Haven't heard his name much this trade period

Has he re-signed with the Crows?

Are the Dees interested? Demonlanders seemed to be pretty keen last year and now he's available we've been pretty quiet.

Any news anyone?

PSD.

Source? or is it your gut feeling?

[Cheap Seats 3,310]

If he dosen't re-sign with the Crows its a big chance

Haven't heard anything though

[Machsy 2,858]

It's what I'd do.

[dazzledavey36 52,738]

He should have taken the offer up from the Dees last year. Would have played a lot of footy with us this year and a lot midfield action.

I like the idea of picking him up in the PSD unless we already have someone else in mind (Frost?).

Goodwin has come out only last week to say categorically that Toumpas is not on the trade table and is part of Melbourne's forward plans!

[Whispering_Jack 29,190]

Signed a 2 year contract with the Crows today.

Presumably now off the radar?

I'd say so. I'm not sure how on the radar he would've been anyway. Not when we'd have to trade something good to get him. Certainly now we have the first live PSD pick we'd be chasing anyone of quality we can find out of contract to tank their negotiations and come to us. But not before.

I did really like the idea of Lyons, particularly last year. But looking deeper I'm not convinced he'd offer us anything more than what injury free Riley and Michie should offer in 2015.

He's not tall, not fast, not particularly skilled nor is he that Nath Jones or Jack Viney level of inside ball winning animal. Riley might win a clearance or stick a tackle better than him, and Viv might take a mark or kick a goal better than him.
