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.

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

    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!

    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.

    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.

    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

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

    • 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 forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — 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 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.
