absolutely... yes yes yes. get him we need small forwards.

I raised it on here a week ago but apparently he has nominated the Blues and will likely get there today. We don't have anything left to give up for him. Our earliest pick is now 57 so unless we can upgrade we're done for this trade period.

 

Hibberd is better than Tuohy, who can be a shocking turnover merchant.

Just looked at the stats. Much, much better.

Tuohy is ordinary. The cats seem to be getting desperate.

Obviously I wasn't being serious about moving in with him.  I just want ANB to learn as much as he possibly can about the way he goes about his footy.

Maybe he can be their families match-day nanny, and can catchup with Lewis about the game after he returns


This one is from left-field. Pat McKenna goes from GWS to Melbourne with picks 51 (R3) and 69 (R4) for picks 57 (R3) and 59 (R4).

That is now 3 in and 3 out. We now need to see another 3 out..... Dunn is one, who will be the other 2?

Dunn, Newton and Dawes. Michie may well go too.

Cleary reporting that Dawes is no longer a Melbourne player. 


Mitch Cleary reporting that Dawes is gone. Was informed today apparently

Patrick - thank god.

I thought we might have blown pick 58 on Peter McKenna.

He must be nearly 70 years old!!!

Michie's a rookie, so wouldn't make a difference to our trade plans if he goes.

 

Vardy to WCE for pick 72? Surely we could have put up something better than that?

If he gets an injury-free run, this will be the best deal of the trade period.

Mitch Clark gets out on the park more than Vardy - whilst Vardy has potential upside, it's a no from me

No, I know, but he's another that'll probably go, meaning we'll free up a rookie spot.

Hawks will offer Pick 10 + Isaac Smith for JOM...

Watch this space... Hawks have lost the plot!

His arrogance and smugness cost them a chance to play in the Grand Final.  While I'm not sure if you are taking the pi$$ or not with the above, I'll presume you aren't, and will wonder if that;s part of the reason why he's being offered up.

Misses a shot to get his team into the GF one month...

Racking lines off a mirror in the sun the next :cool:

I thought they'd be going the Sydney route.

If trade talk points are correct, 14+17=2100 and #10 = 1300. Then they only need to offer a #20-25 type pick to even the trade. Would more likely be Hartung, Puopolo or Siciliy to Sydney I think and send 14 + 17 to GCS ?

HUGE MISTAKE!

they should just hold on, there is no way the Suns are really going to let him walk for nothing.

Talk around that GWS may be stripped of draft picks over the Whitfield episode!!  Now wouldn't that make a lot of people happy!  A bit of poetic justice one would think.

Back to the draft: they might do a last minute deal to get 2017 early picks.  I don't usually hypothesise about picks but this would be nice:  GWS: a 2016 1st and 2nd round for MFC: 2017 1st round and 2016 #69 which has draft points value and 2017 3rd round.  We could always trade into 2017 later rounds next year.

Why do it: might get us the ruck/forward with their 2016 2nd round and give us a 1st round pick.  Of course we would only do it if we had a target in the 1st round.

Doable?

  • NON-MFC: Round 07

    Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • REPORT: Fremantle

    For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

  • CASEY: UWS Giants

    The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

  • PREGAME: Richmond

    The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

    A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
