    Hahaha yeah just taking the pizz, but it's an interesting one, would you give up one of our young mids for a player like that if he were on the market? he, Watts and Hogan or Weideman is a fair forward line.

    That would be an unmitigated disaster and I would probably no longer barrack for the club if that occurred.

    Not for Reiwoldt. Maybe someone like Peter Wright, but even then it would be a tough call.

    So an elite key forward isn't worth one of our young mids? people are dismissing this only because it's Jack that i suggested, if it were someone like Peter Wright or Rory Lobb would that be a different story?

    Very impressive man is Pav. By the way was referring to a reference for a job - wasn't doubting that he said what he did. Sorry for being obtuse.

    Yes i'm pretty impressed with Pav too, and i was a doubter. What convinced me was the particular way he handled his own send off. With no tantrums and dedication to grass roots supporters. Says a lot about the man.

    They're 21. Riewoldt is about to turn 28.

    and both are relatively unproven still, both have shown patches of good form, but also some very poor games, Jack is a proven performer coming into the prime of his career.

    This, as well as the fact that premierships are won in the middle and Gus is a huge part of our midfield going forward.

    Jesus, we'd get done for tanking about 20 minutes after the trade went through and Richmond would run away giggling

    Just on Richmond it's getting more and more likely that Deludio will be shopped around. The same as Dustin Martin. 

    My man tells me that they're both likely to stay at the Tigers however. But also tells me anything can happen in trade week.

    That's contradictory. I know that Martin will not be going anywhere, but the Tigers are doing as much as possible to offload Deledio and are willing to pay a fair portion of what remains of his contract. They'll need to.

    Can't see how a trade could be orgestrated for Martin. 

    As for Deludio the Tigers list is in terrible shape so they'll be looking at picks and are in a position to pay a good portion of his salary.

    What an insightful post. 

    Something might happen. But it probably won't. But it could. 

    Thanks.

    What would their expectations be regarding Delidio? Would a mid 1st round pick get it done?

    He spent most of the year injured.

    I'm starting to think that Flamingdees has been around these parts before. Reminds me of someone.

    Wow, this thread just took a turn for the worst. Brayshaw for Riewoldt? Just yuck.

    deledio is on a fortune and the tiges would love to move him out, but no one wants to pay what the tigers want for him.

     

    and if the suns offered wright for brayshaw i personally couldn't sign the transfer papers soon enough. riewoldt plus tiges second round pick this year (~22) and i'd be pretty tempted.

    • REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
