Total star! Exactly what we need, I'm not saying we should cough up the kitchen sink but would be happy to offload one or more inside mids to get him.

    FFS he was in the All Australian squad at 21 years of age and people here are saying his stats aren't good enough???

    Sorry, i'm a bit confused. Did i miss something? Who on 'here' is saying 'his stats aren't good enough???'

    How are you unable to see real talent when it smacks you in the face?

    Melbourne is confident they will get Lever.

    Melbourne were confident they would make finals too... We all know what happened there. Lol

    What makes you deduce bandicoot can't see real talent from the comment of his you quoted?

    Lever is a gun but I'd much rather keep the McDonald's and Frost, and use that salary cap and trade options for a classy midfielder.

    All well and good Clint, but what if no classy mid wants to come to us this year?

    Take them while you can get them.

    Aside from Kelly who will most likely end up at Carlton or stay at GWS, who else would you target? Lever is a star and more importantly a leader. If a player of his calibre wants to come to the club, you get it done

    Spoke to someone from Carlton yesterday and they thought Kelly would stay at GWS

    Surely then GWS would have to push out someone else to make room. Hopper has signed on. Dev Smith is OOC. Others have mentioned Whitfield. Is Kennedy any good? Please god not $culldog. 

    Will be an interesting finals series for them.

    Devon Smith is basically gone....his issue is more of around midfield time rather than coin.  If Kelly stays you can take it to the bank that Smith will go

    I've already received the 2018 calendar with him on the cover in the mail. What could possibly go wrong?

    I know he was simply asked the question and answered honestly, but I liked it much better when under Roos we stfu about potential trades and talked only when they were done. Of course the media now paints it that we expect Lever to saunter over to us.

    It's not hard to either shut up or play dumb and not give away stupid headlines.

    FMD! Is there a worse club at premature expectation than the MFC?

    Yep.  And if he doesn't we look a bit silly.

    Speaking of which...  my little finals tickets booklet arrived on Friday...   :(

    Surely we'd have to look at getting a three way trade done with the crows and blues 

    although the blues are known to greatly overrate their own players. This is evident with SOS cleaning out all his picks from the giants 

    My complicated attempt would be 

    we send sam frost and our second rounder ( 28) to the crows for their first rounder (16-18) 

    we send (16-18) and 2018 second round pick for Bryce Gibbs. 

    Bryce Gibbs goes to Adelaide in exchange for jake lever 

    jake lever comes to us. 

     

    Crows get Gibbs, frost and a second rounder for a first rounder and lever 

    we get lever for frost and 2 second rounders 

    blues get a first and a second rounder for Gibbs 

     

    we get jake lever into the club and retain our pick number 10 and 2018 pick

    I think we do too well out of this, and the Crows get stooged somewhat

    Too much for Gibbs, he's turning 30 next year.

    So is Nathan jones and we'd want more than a first rounder for him if he requested a trade

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.

      Gather Round is upon us and the Demons face off against the Bombers who are on a 17 game losing streak. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons put four quarters of hard contested, fast running and high pressure football to knock off the ladder leaders and early premiership contenders the Gold Suns by 20 points at the MCG on Easter Sunday.

    • PODCAST: Gold Coast

      I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.
