i have absolutely no issues giving 2017 and 2018 first rounder for lever and X, whatever X may be (late 2017 first / early 2017 second, or 2018 second)

the kid is a jet

it makes me think of what paul roos said, which is that the biggest battle with these sorts of deals is getting the player across the line - from there, it's beholden upon the trading in club (that is us in this instance) to get the deal done

i'm confident we will, and we won't look back in 2018 and beyond

    Both clubs have arrived at AFL House - could be happening today? According to Trade Radio at least.

    Or maybe arbitration?

    We better not get reamed. If we are giving 2 firsts i'm expecting pick 16 back

    My Port supporting mates refer to AFC as the ‘Cows’ all the time.

    Supposed to denigrate I guess.

    Done deal: Lever joins Demons

     

    Adelaide will receive two first-round draft picks in exchange for defender Jake Lever after a trade deal was struck with Melbourne on Thursday morning at Etihad Stadium.

    The Crows will get pick No.10, a future first-round selection and a future fourth-round selection from the Demons and send Lever, pick No.35 and a future third-round selection to Melbourne.

    True. But he already has. We now own the best young defender in the game.

    Rapt with this.

    Three AA squad members now in our back 6 plus the improving Oscar, speedster Hunt and developing Frost.

    Some outside speed and Weideman stepping up would help complete a very talented side.

    True. I was referring to @Petraccattack 's post.

    Well [censored].

    Jake will be great but we had the leverage, he was willing to walk and there was no way he was going back to the crows.

    Two firsts for Jake and a 4th - 3rd ain't fantastic. We do have a fantastic backline now though:

    Hibberd, Tommy Mac, Lever, Hunt, Frost, Jetta. So versatile.

    We must have some other stuff in the wings for this to be completed so fast.

    • 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.
