Wish we drafted him back in the day, that draft will go down as a super draft with him, Truck, Gus, Heeney and going to fruition.

Cant remember the draft order, but who would you not have drafted in his stead?

    Didn't we have lever penciled in with the pick from Richmond for trengove before the doctor stuffed us, I know Roos really rated him

    Why bother chasing a (soon to be) All Australian defender when we already have one.

     

    Put Tom McDonald back to the backline and instead of going after Lever go and get Patton/Lobb.

     

    Jetta OMac Frost

    Hibberd TMac Hunt

    Brayshaw Jones Vince

    Petracca Hogan Melksham

    Garlett Patton/Lobb Watts

    Gawn Oliver Viney

     

    Lewis Hannan Salem Tyson

     

     

    Looks ok to me...

    We have a good trade history with GWS, only think is it won't come cheap. Have to be realistic can't offer Pederson for either of them.

     

    Weideman and a late first round pick?

     

    Weed will be a dynamite forward in years 2 come bad trade. The computer says no.

    Yep, kid is a footballer. Skinny and sorta uncoordinated now, but give him 2 years and he will be kicking more goals than Jesse.

    Clearly we need Lever.

    Frost and O-Mac in tandem are as useful as an ashtray on a motorbike.

    Yes, he would be more than handy. Understatement...

    I can't see Frost being in the future plans apart from being a depth player or maybe trade value.

    O-Mac does have some upside though.

    Not sure why Adelaide would be interest in either Watts or the Weid noting they already have Walker, JJ, Lynch and McGovern (maybe short term) loitering around in there forward line and Otten who swings around there.

    There backline would need more support which increases the value on Oscar/Frost but I still think there priorities would be for high quality mids. 

    I still think a local like an ANB might be used along with a first round pick in exchange for Lever and some pick in change. You have to spend big to get the talent and personally I think the kids going to be a star.

    Would be massive for us to get this done

    Can see that happening. I like it.

    Maybe Carlton can be lured by more ex-GWS players in any of Tyson, Bugg or Frost + a pick.

    Yep, would be an awfully raw deal. Maybe trade up somehow and get a higher pick to send along with *Insert fringe player* and they may listen.

    If Gibbs goes to Crows at 29 before next season, I wonder what his value is.

    What worries me about that deal, is that Carlton will go for Lever themselves.

    I am told they are into Kelly up to their eyeballs.

    What about JKH to carlton? They wanted him a couple years ago, plus a pick.

    Gibbs to Adelaide, Lever to Melbourne, our first rounder this year and a second rounder next year to the Blues.  They won't be interested in any of our players, and we won't offer the ones they will have interest in.  Maybe the Crows chuck in a second rounder of some sort as well to go to the Blues.  Carlton wanted two first rounders last year, so one first rounder and two seconds might get the job done.

    You value Gibbs highly.

    Be interesting to see how much currency Gibbs and Gaz have at their respective ages.

    I have faith our pitch to him would of been well done. Can only hope he does choose to come to us. As for what picks and or who I'm sure the club have pretty much already figured out the options and also have solid faith it will be worth it.

    If he doesn't come, at least it's a good sign players want to meet with us and are linked with us. Especially the most sought after.
    Lever would be the biggest coup the club has had in my time anyway.

    OMac is a good player. It's only your stubbornness that prevents you from seeing it now. 

    Agree with you on Frost.

    Frost plays like a headless chook on speed

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

      The Dogs reigned supreme in 2018 with an inaugural AFLW premiership cup and the Demons matched this feat by winning the cup as the Season 7 2022 champions.Meggs wasn’t born when the Doggies won their first VFL premiership cup against the Demons in 1954. Covid prevented many Demons fans from legally witnessing the victorious 2021 AFL Grand Final cup performance between the Demons and the Bulldogs, but we all grin when remembering those magnificent seven third quarter goals.

    • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

      Hawthorn and Melbourne. Two teams with impressive form from last week but with seasons that are travelling on different trajectories meet in Saturday’s twilight game for what could well be the most intriguing contest of the AFL’s penultimate round. Sadly, the game has been relegated to that unappealing time slot in the weekend when Melburnians are typically preoccupied with activities other than football. It falls between the morning's shopping, afternoon sport and recreation, and Saturday night fever. A time usually reserved for relatively insignificant events but this one is not a nothingburger for either of the clubs or their fans.

    • AFLW: 2025 Season Preview

      Ten seasons. Eighteen teams. With the young talent pathway finally fully connected, Women’s Australian Rules football is building momentum and Season 2025 promises to be the best yet. In advance of Season 10, the AFL leadership has engaged in candid discussions with all clubs regarding strategies to boost attendance and expand fan bases. Concerningly, average attendances in 2024 were 2,660 fans per match, with the women’s game incurring an annual loss of approximately $50 million.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

    • PREGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?
