The thing is, if he digs his heels in again over lever and forces him into the draft, they’d be passing up a good deal no reason. 

Sorry brett but if danger is worth 9 and 28 

10 and 27 is more than fair for lever. You set the bar. 

 

Just got home His ours, I MEN'T TO SAY HIS F8^%# OURS! This is like Christmas morning. Oh boy o boy.:wub:

Every single year this happens. I remember the Gold Coast guy saying the exact same thing re. O'Meara. Brisbane were super strong re. Aish. Both ended up at their club of choice. You also need to factor in emotion, how would YOU be feeling if Petracca requested a trade to Collingwood three days after losing a GF we should have won? Yeah, I thought so.

Burton will calm down and soon realise we're good and fair to deal with. We paid Essendon slight overs (at the time) for Melksham and they were good enough to return the favour with Hibberd for slight unders the following year. 

Playing hardball gets you nowhere.

Lever is just about worth two first rounders outside the top 10. He's a very good player, although I question his selection in the AA squad. He's also injury prone. But draft picks are overrated, if it ends up being 10 and 20 or something for Lever then I won't be losing any sleep over it.

 

 

Are we tracking planes yet? or is that a soccer only thing?

If we could trade pick 10 and somehow end up with, say, two picks in the 16-18 range, then fair deal. But if we throw in 10 and another first-round pick, it's major overs. If it's pick 10 then a pick in the early-mid 20s will get it done. And if Adelaide baulk at that, then we can point to Dangerfield, Eddie, and Scottie Thompson. 


That was the best interview BT has done, to hear Lever say it feels sooooooo good.

Yep, Lever made it absolutely clear, he wants to join the Dees.

How long is the interview? Only thing I could find was on the CH7 Facebook page which was only about 1:50 long

About 2 minutes, was on the channel 7 sports segment, more like a coffee and chat. I'm sure the more computer savvy Demonlanders will have it here soon or even before I post.

He sounds a compassionate and thoughtful young man.  He genuinely looked happy when talking of joining the Dees.

Will be a terrific asset for us on and off the field. 

Should also go well with sponsors - quite articulate.

4 year deal at $750k front load it and it definitely won’t hurt us keeping our young talent

Me 

He is only 21 and he is a gun, will soon become a fan favorite and will be a vital cog in our quest for the holy grail.

A big summer woking on his 1 on 1 defending is what is needed for Lever.  Hogan will be a great training partner in that regard.

Will he be the next Rance/G Jakovich, or will he just be a better version of Jared Rivers?

  • GAMEDAY: St. Kilda

    It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

  • REPORT: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.
