Is May actually any good?

The trade all all depends on how keen Hogan is to go back to the $hithole Fremantle club.

If he wants to be a life long loser then well and good. Go there. 

If he wants a chance at the big time and is prepared to leave Mummy in Perth then he stays in the world’s most liveable city.

He might regret being a mummy’s boy (and for money). 

Ask retired AFL players: was the money that good or would you rather a premiership to your name?

I’m sure I know the answer.

In every case.

If you put Oscar Mcdonald in the gold coast team you can double those numbers mate

I'd be happy if TMac kicked 10 goals on his younger brother..

Very noticeable shift in rhetoric from May camp in past 24 hours as the reality of Hogan staying at Melbourne hit home. 

Dees out of the race. Bidding opened up to the floor.

Wanna bet? $20 says May is a Demon this time tomorrow.

With May now being touted as happy to go anywhere in Victoria, it is time for our team to lay down the final ultimatum to Freo - right now, give us two first rounder, and Brayshaw of Cerra, or GOGF right now.

Deal or no deal.

Maybe we should get President Trump to do our negotiating ??

I’ll do it!

PS - this is an observation from a third party (fyi - i'm tipping Hogan to be in purple tomorrow night)

It's very sad watching you flap around like a dying fish.

You've entirely missed the point, and art, of trolling if you're the one that ends up making all of the effort. You're just trying pathetically hard.

This is just painful to watch. Please stop, it's making me sad.

It’s a contrarian, minority opinion. 

What’s the problem? Does difference and non-conformity frighten you? That to me actually is sad.

I'd like to play poker with you.

Can anyone misread a situation so badly ?

There's no skill, art or guile in this sentence.

It's like a tail ender facing 1000 throw downs a day in the nets before closing his eyes and slogging as soon as he gets to the middle.

200 posts a day isn't trolling. It's a cry for help.

Look, anyone that has a clue about footy knows May is quality and should be back to his best in a good side like ours.

It's really simple. 

Those that don't rate him clearly don't watch enough of him or are just clueless. 

One can only laugh when posters start talking about which opposition player kicked what amount of goals on him. It's just massive lols.

If one's understanding of football only goes that far, there's no point in engaging further with them.

May is quality and is a clear upgrade on our current defenders. I'm not sure I've seen many posts suggesting otherwise. 

My main concern is that I don't think the value of pick 5 is the same as the value May adds to the team vs OMac over the course of his career. That is based on:

- we rarely had kpf's kick multiple goals against us this year (and when they did it was often lack of midfield pressure);

- we have Lever coming back into the defense; and

- OMac performed well this year, is underrated on this site, and will only get better next year and the year after. 

But I understand that others (list management included) perhaps see the value of May in the short term as much higher than pick 5.

It’s been about 20 a day, most of which are spent answering questions and replying to prods, pokes and insults from aggrieved fanboys like you. 

There was no intention to be guileful or artful in my last reply to you. Was just pointing out your fear and prejudice towards non-conformism. 

If that hit a nerve so be it.

Ignore response, my brain definitely fried.


Steven May will be in the red & blue by the end of the day :) 

 

Via trade radio:

Eade on May: He's a really good player. He can play tall but where he can be best used is on the medium types like Robbie Gray that can be hard to match up on

It's this attribute that has gotten me around to bringing May on board. 

OMac isn't fast/agile enough, Frost isn't smart enough, Nev isn't tall enough, and as well as acombination of physical attributes that make them unsuitable,  we don't want Lever/Hibb/Salem/Lewis tied down from their usual role as interceptors/distributors.

You're underrating Nevs ability to play tall..


Do we have to use pick 6 for May?

Is it possible we could trade our next year first round and 23 for May?

 

KK will be steak knives

 

If we can go to the draft with 6 that's a big win

I like it, but we have a lot to do to get this thread to 400 pages in the next few minutes.

Or negotiate 8 and 13 with Adelaide and try and keep 13?

  • POSTGAME: Collingwood

    Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.

    It's Game Day and the Demons face a monumental task as they take on the top-of-the-table Magpies in one of the biggest games on the Dees calendar: the King's Birthday Big Freeze MND match. Can the Demons defy the odds and claim a massive scalp to keep their finals hopes alive?

  • CASEY: Collingwood

    It was freezing cold at Mission Whitten Stadium where only the brave came out in the rain to watch a game that turned out to be as miserable as the weather.
    The Casey Demons secured their third consecutive victory, earning the four premiership points and credit for defeating a highly regarded Collingwood side, but achieved little else. Apart perhaps from setting the scene for Monday’s big game at the MCG and the Ice Challenge that precedes it.
    Neither team showcased significant skill in the bleak and greasy conditions, at a location that was far from either’s home territory. Even the field umpires forgot where they were and experienced a challenging evening, but no further comment is necessary.
