My info is the club is very confident the crows will accept our current offer. 

Our current offer is NOT pick # 10 & 27 

it is pick #10 and a 2018 second round pick. 

The club is very much hoping to sell the crows on that deal, and use the potential watts deal combine with #27 to gain another first round pick.

What part of "negotiating" dont you guys get?

Final numbers to be sorted, but its STILL part of negotiations.

 

Cannot believe anyone actually thinks that clubs do not negotiate outside of the trade window.

Staggering.

Crows knew lever was going about 6 weeks ago and they knew he was definitely coming to Melbourne about 12 days ago so the best and fairest situation looks even worse on their part. 

Melbourne and the crows have been chatting about this deal for a while. 

It will probably take most of the trade period but it’ll get done

Seems like there may have been unrest the whole finals series.....probably lucky they made it that far.

That explains the pre finals match stance.

Wonder what 20 & 27 would get us?

Interesting. Thanks evil.

That is a very fair offer for a player who did not figure in the Crows' top ten in their Best and Fairest and who scored one Brownlow vote (same as Oscar McDonald)!

“Choose to pay one of the most down-hill skiers in Motlop over $600k, yet have the audacity to completely initially low-ball Lever then run around like headless chooks to try and retain him, followed by a wave of abuse towards him when he accepts a better offer elsewhere. No wonder this club can’t retain their players.”

Look how similar my first sentence is with yours lol.

I like this part from the article. 

“I think he has given his heart and soul to the footy club over the past three seasons and people would always say he was the first to get there and last to leave."

Jack Viney would like that.


AFL website reporting Crows have offered Motlop $600k - and they're cracking the sads because we offered $750k to Lever???

Secured all the finance for my new film and trade week starts tomorrow. Life is good! ???

I'm guessing that your new film is an update of the Manchurian Candidate through an MFC lens with Matt Damon playing Jack Watts in the role of 'Queen of Diamonds'. Close?

  • NON-MFC: Round 12

    Round 12 kicks off with the Brisbane hosting Essendon at the Gabba as the Lions aim to solidify their top-two position against an injury-hit Bombers side seeking to maintain momentum after a win over Richmond. On Friday night it's a blockbuster at the G as the Magpies look to extend their top of the table winning streak while the Hawks strive to bounce back from a couple of recent defeats and stay in contention for the Top 4. On Saturday the Suns, buoyed by 3 wins on the trot, face the Dockers in a clash crucial for both teams' aspirations this season. The Suns want to solidify their Top 4 standing whilst the Dockers will be desperate to break into the 8.

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    The media has performed a complete reversal in its coverage of the Melbourne Football Club over the past month and a half. Having endured intense criticism from all quarters in the press, which continually identified new avenues for scrutiny of every aspect, both on and off the field, and prematurely speculated about the departures of coaches, players, officials, and various employees from a club that lost its first five matches and appeared out of finals contention, the narrative has suddenly shifted to one of unbridled optimism.  The Demons have won five of their last six matches, positioning themselves just one game (and a considerable amount of percentage) outside the top eight at the halfway mark of the season. They still trail the primary contenders and remain far from assured of a finals berth.

  • REPORT: Sydney

    A few weeks ago, I visited a fellow Melbourne Football Club supporter in hospital, and our conversation inevitably shifted from his health diagnosis to the well-being of our football team. Like him, Melbourne had faced challenges in recent months, but an intervention - in his case, surgery, and in the team's case, a change in game style - had brought about much improvement.  The team's professionals had altered its game style from a pedestrian and slow-moving approach, which yielded an average of merely 60 points for five winless games, to a faster and more direct style. This shift led to three consecutive wins and a strong competitive effort in the fourth game, albeit with a tired finish against Hawthorn, a strong premiership contender.  As we discussed our team's recent health improvement, I shared my observations on the changes within the team, including the refreshed style, the introduction of new young talent, such as rising stars Caleb Windsor, Harvey Langford, and Xavier Lindsay, and the rebranding of Kozzy Pickett from a small forward to a midfield machine who can still get among the goals. I also highlighted the dominance of captain Max Gawn in the ruck and the resurgence in form in a big way of midfield superstars Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver.

  • POSTGAME: Sydney

    The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.
