Heard today that another J.Watts will be joining the MFC this trade period..  a kid from up north.

No idea if hes any good or anything about him, just that he is a young KPD and we are into him.

Worst case scenario and Hogan were to leave, if one of the picks we got back were pick 12 from West Coast, I'd be willing to on-trade that for Hanley.

    Fox sports are reporting Pearce Hanley is on the table. Turns 28 next year, I actually rate him pretty highly. He would cost more than we can afford but his run and carry would be handy

    Would love him at the club.

    Copied this summary from the dees supporters page:

     

    Trade Radio -

    * Hibberd said he has already been having beers with the likes of Jones & Vince in recent weeks. He says his relationship with Goodwin & the need for a fresh start is why he chose Melbourne. Deal will be done in good faith unless something drastically goes wrong. 

    * Hogan's managers boss (correct me if wrong) said all the trade talk is just noise. When asked if Hogan will play at MFC in 2017, after a fair bit of tap dancing he said "yes". He also said he thinks that even the "deal of the century" wouldn't get Melbourne to trade. He wasn't overly convincing in his declaration however!

    I think that may have something to do with their reluctance to confirm details about a player who they are not actually managing. All 3 player managers were reluctant to comment on players from their Management company, who they were not the actual managers of. Made sense to me, and was rather heartening news re Jesse.

    Please be true

    Agree. He'd be close to my most disliked player in the league but the only important thing with prospective recruits is will they make us a better football side. The answer in Harvey's case is unequivocally yes.

    Just looked at that twitter account.

    Fairly suss...

    I was going to say the same thing.  None of the 'official' sources are running with the story at all.  I'd say it's rubbish.

    This makes me incredibly conflicted and uncomfortable.

    Looks suss to me, as it is meant to sound official, but they wouldn't announce it.

    It's a fake account, so no one get excited or angry!

    • 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?

    • POSTGAME: Fremantle

      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.
