Kanga's apparently planning to use the Brown picks in trade for Stephenson. Gives us a slightly clearer run at targeting the Dogs pick.

The Dogs will want more points premium than that - they're currently 600 short of a bid for JUH at pick 1.

The best bet for them would be 14 + a fringe player for the 1800 pints they need.

For example 14 + Ed Richards for 28 + 33 + 43 + 50 would get them there.

can I have some of the 1800 pints mate  a bit thirsty here

 

Trade radio just said this is the deal

NM give BB, 28 and Future 4th

Melb give 26, 33 and future 4th


Sam Edmunds on Trade Radio just said the deal is:

MFC give: 26, 33, future 4th

NM give: Brown, 28, future 4th

(Apologies if a repeat)

Edit - Lost the race haha. Good trade tho.

Sounds pretty darn good to me!

We still have two picks in the second round to potentially package together while also getting Brown into the club without using a first round pick!  Great stuff!

 

Welcome Ben.

A genuine forward. The lift this will give the other forwards could be HUGE.

All in all, it's Ben Brown for a mid second round pick in a speculative draft.

Ludicrous bargain.

Bang on, here LO.  Brown is a genuine forward.  I expect Weid's development to come on in leaps and bounds in 2021 as he has Brown to learn off/from.

It is good but would have also liked to get a fast winger during the trade period to rather than just looking at internal players (which hasnt worked so far). Still a bit of time left but doubt it will happen.

Good business Dees. 

A full forward to take key defender and weeds to roam. Jacko can leap around. Petracca kicking to the hands of BB. 

An we still have 2 x 2nd rounders.

Excellent!

Perhaps these could become a 1 st rounder (macrae)

Great deal. Essentially Ben Brown for Pick 31 as we give up 33 and downgrade 26 to 28. 

pretty much turned Preuss into Ben Brown!!

well done JM

Well done Demons. This could be a huge masterstroke. 
Get Ben as fit as possible and get he and The Weid together. Go out for pizza ? Get on the Beers ? and sort out how the 2 of them work in tandem 

 

WOW. that's an incredible deal for us.

Absolutely..


Also great to see that neutral supporters reckon we paid massive unders for Brown.

It's fantastic.

So we give up 33 for Brown, sliding back two spots from 26 to 28 which barely matters, and we likely improve on our 2021 fourth round pick.

I think we have to be happy with this.

Now to see how it all actually plays out on the field.

As last hours madness rolls in, all we need is for North to trade one of those for Stephenson and Collingwood to decide they want ToMc and we could end up getting it back again.

 

Has he had a fitness test?

Or did he hop on the other (good) leg to show his knee is ok? As the story went with Kelvin Templeton...

Are North incompetent, or is there something we are not being told about Brown that makes him so cheap?

  • 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.

    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

    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.
