If we have the money and hogan stays would we consider Tyson and a pick for May, surely goldcoast could do with a player like Tyson and he will get the midfield role he cravesย

Tyson would have to agree. Heโ€™s already disagreed to a move to GC.ย

How can Hawthorn possibly trade enough for Shiel?

If GWS are forced to offload him due to salary cap constraints, then they have just been very very lucky to be able to exploit GWSโ€™ inability to manage a list properly.

GWS also lost Treloar to the Pies which [censored] me (forget what they got in return). ย Treloar is a better player than Shiel in my veiw. ย If I was GWS I definitely would have wanted to keep Treloar.

I have to wonder.ย  How many weeks has May been suspended in his career?ย  I know he's gone a few times.ย  It's been one of the big knocks on him.ย  Anyone know how to find out?ย

As far as Iโ€™m aware heโ€™s been suspended twice, once in 2016 for five weeks and once this season for one week.ย 

It may have been mentioned earlier on this thread (can't be bothered looking), but there was a stage in the later parts of this season where the idea was discussed that Gold Coast could rip up May's current contract, effectively making him a Free Agent. ย The reason for doing this is the compo pick they would receive would be of far greater value than what May would command in a trade.

With or without Jesse's departure, this is hopefully something the MFC are discussing with the Suns. ย I'm sure the AFL would look after it's love child if they approached with this request.

Pretty sure the AFL crushed this idea....ย

thats right?

Whispers circulating that Steven has requested a trade to the Deeโ€™s. I must stress, these are whispers only. More to come. #ETthetradebreaker.

So he is free agent next year, and GC get say pick 3 compo. ย Trade him out this year for what? ย Only if they value this draftย massively over next year would they blink, unless its cultural. ย In that case, why would we want him?

And Tyson is interested in North.ย  Tyson was reportedly on $500k pa.ย  Factor in the Kent trade, the more expensive delists/retirements (Vince, Pedersen, Bugg) and the likelihood of Aaron going ? should give us enough cap space to pick up May. ย 

And, I reckon we will still have some coin in the kitty to pay our other trade in players.ย 

So if we can find a trade that will satisfy GCS we can get May regardless of what Jesse does.

You must have read the Roar.???

So, if this is the case, do we look at these two trades (hogan and may) being done separately OR is it still tied up , and perhaps with Hogan, it is finer detail to be worked behind the scenes, before an imminent announcement?

I have a suspicion, nothing more, that there indeed would be a plan B. By all accounts we've been into May for some whiles. This FD raiding party have proven themselves quite wiley over the years. You'd think they have a contingency plan should the Hogan fiasco go south.

Just my view


Tom Langdon had a medical at the Swans. Not sure what it means regarding Steven May.

Oscar might not be as dashing and agile as Frost but he has the better skills and is more composed with ball in hand. Much more composed. He may not be the finished article yet but Oscar played some very good footy this season, especially when Lever was up and about and he could play second fiddle back there.

Add May to the back six, get Lever back from injury and watch Oscar thrive with main glare of a key defensive spotlight off him. Thatโ€™s the added blessing of having tough-ass gorilla-minder like May come into the side. Takes some of the heat off Lever and OMac.

Frost will be the one pushed to the back of the pecking order ifย May is brought in. Skill level is not at the level for a side with premiership aspirations. Couple of those fumbly turnovers and wonky 30m passes against an Eagles or Tigersย and wooshka ... itโ€™s game over.

put frosty on a wing?

Time to roll out plan B for May ;)

That was Plan B. Plan A was to have a crack at him next year.

Plan C it is

Does anyone know if the club applied to the AFL for permission to trade next year's first round pick ? If so, were we successful ?

point takenย  ย  . Plan C it is.....make it so Dees

( all clubs were cleared by AFL to trade next seasons 1st Rounders...apparently.. Seems like on the fly revisionism to me...but hey that'sย Gil )ย

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmyโ€™s inclusive bannerโ€”"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwoodโ€™s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.ย

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecastโ€”20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze โ€” expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • 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 Kateโ€™s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwoodโ€™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

    Narrm time isnโ€™t a standard conceptโ€”itโ€™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.
