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???

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

    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.

    We should try first.

    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

    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

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

    • CASEY: Williamstown

      The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

      The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
