After a quick read through it seems an old favourite (with a new name) has jumped up with the latest plausible information claiming it to be a scoop and from inside information.

Yes, rjay, spot on and I suspected this the first time I saw the post.  But the reality is a lot like the facade and would prefer to believe it regardless of the veracity.  As you say the process is the same as it the language. I'd bet a fair bit it's one and the same.  And why a new name?  Because after the Hogan fiasco GNF has no cred.

People with the sort of information JG says he has don't splash it around the internet because if they do it is quickly picked up and they no longer get the information.

If Melbourne is interested in a player from Geelong, my inkling tells me Mark Blicavs.

Blicavs can play midfield/ruck. 198cm and 100kg. Very good runner and tackles. Big body and difficult match up at centre bounces/clearances.

V.Good player and is exactly the type of player we need...

With Stringer and Ablett wanting to go to Geelong I am confident this could be on the cards. Geelong need to land draft picks to make this happen.

3-way trade.

Blicavs and Pick 33 to the Dees, Watts and Pick 20 to the Dogs, Stringer and Pick 27 to the Cats. 

I can see the Dees landing Lever, Blicavs and Gaff. That would be the best trade week ever...

Blicavs is a very average player.  Doesn't find enough of the ball as a mid and not good enough as a forward. 

He is definitely not what we need 

I wonder if something like this would work.

Gibbs and Blues pick 21 or whatever Carlton's 2nd pick is to Crows.

Pick 10 and MFC Player ( Watts/Kent?)  to Blues

Lever and 3rd round pick to Dees.

Unfortunately I think the Blues miss out. A first rounder and watts for Gibbs and a 2nd rounder is a major loss for them

I heard Gibbs and Lever were being merged into the same player.... Giver

 

 

 

I'll see myself out....

I know for a fact that we don't think like that, as the List Managers know very well that what goes round comes round.

The mantra is generally be fair in dealing, though of course at the same time trying to get the best deal, but the key word is "fair". 

The clubs that constantly try to screw other clubs are well known.

I think this deal may get done early in trade week, thereby allowing the Crows to deal for Gibbs and others.

I understand that Red but I don't want us to bend over and just take it.

Only have info on Lever and Gaff who both should be coming. There is a 3rd player of strong interest but I honestly don't know who it is. I know Demons have been talking to Geelong, not sure if Demons player going or Cats player coming

I want this to be true... so shall believe it for a while.

How exciting is this!!!

:cool:

 

Gaff and Lever

we'll golleeeeeeee

Watts I can live without. Salem going would break my little heart into 1000 pcs

I'd be extremely surprised if the club would consider trading Salem.

 

Lever is two good finals performances away from being a big game player

Agree? If so we definitely need someone who stands up for us when we need them to most

Salem is worth more to us than he is on the open market. He has shown enough to be considered valuable but no club will pay enough with his injury history.

He certainly is.. If I were in a chair that mattered Id listen to offers though

Dodoro was fair with us in Melksham and Hibberd deals. And in the Carlisle deal with the Saints too, it was the Saints going too hard there.

Unless his injury prognosis is worse than the Club is letting on.

Is he? Depends on what is offered, if anything has been offered at all.

I'd be interested to know just how many football related injuries Salem has a history of having had.  As far as I am aware, he missed the most time suffering from a thyroid condition (hardly football related), then concussion as a result of a brick hitting him in the head (again, hardly football related... self inflicted) and most recently suffered a hamstring injury (and I get the feeling Salem is not the first AFL player to have done a hammy). 

So, just what is this injury history he has, and what "worse prognosis" could the club possibly be holding back on?

Neither do I and neither do the club, they are just more pragmatic now.

I think if you are seen as reasonable to deal with,  clubs are more likely to steer leaving players to you instead of the ars-holes.

2014 preseason - thyroid issue
2015 - injuries to both hamstrings, second one pretty severe
2016 - thyroid issue
2017 preseason - brick to the head
2017 - hamstring again

played more games this year than any other year and as long as we're on top of the thyroid issue he's vital to our future imo

If by "fair" you mean he didn't do his favourite trick of holding up other deals by dragging them out all the way through trade week. I thought the general opinion here at the time was that we'd given overs for both, especially Melksham, though I suppose we had to go with the picks we had.

Pick 10 for lever is plenty. At worst pick 10 and swap of 2nd round picks will suffice. 

No way will dees throw in either watts and Salem + pick 10

  • 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.
