Trade radio just said this is the deal

NM give BB, 28 and Future 4th

Melb give 26, 33 and future 4th

Happy with that. A really good trade. Now to concentrate on player development from existing stocks. Our existing boys deserve it, rather than be left to self-develop or fade away.

    Expecting a full Victoria Police investigation into this daylight robbery.

    Effectively we get Ben Brown for Preuss. What an absolute bargain.

    Kudos to Mahoney and co.

    I wonder...

    I reckon this might be a 'thank you' from North for the swapping of first round picks last year.

    This is what happens when you show you are willing to give a little to get a little.

    Other clubs should take note

    This is an incredible result if true - Mahoney has done it again!

    In terms of going after pick 14, probably means the Roos are still in the box seat.

    They now have 26, 30, 33.  We have 28 and 31.  Might go down to what they need to use on Stephenson.

    And if Stephenson goes, then it might open the door for a swap of TMac and Phillips

    Wright for a fourth rounder

    Tmac - no suitors

    For Cameron and Brown to be so far apart in worth is nuts.

    Brown's hair is far more marketable.

    Could be a riot at Arden street. North supporters losing their **** over this. Just hurts them more thinking they were getting either a first rounder or 2 second rounders. Well that’s what they were all saying anyway. Take time out and read the Ben brown link on big footy. Made me have a laugh and brightened my day

    Lets hope we get the 2017-2019 BB, not the 2020 version.

    Lol! Are there jumper manufacturers that could actually do this??

    If you google "afl simpsons jerseys" there are a few dodgy-looking websites that are selling them online (clearly unauthorised though). Up to you whether you trust them enough to hand over your credit card details.

    That's crazy good if true. 

    Even the 4th round steak knives are surely in our favour!

    Norf - death riding our future fourth now :)

    I've actually never met anyone who supports Norf. But jeez, I'd be shattered if MFC had done this to our list. I still can't understand what has gone down for Norf to flick him out of the Club for so little. It's not like they have cap space problems and they desperately need picks. Very strange one.

    I think their priorities may have changed when Stephenson became available,

    So cutting their losses to try and improve...

    We're looking at a potentially significant upgrade to the future 4th round pick here. We only have the Lions future 4th while they only have theirs. Could be swapping 72 for 55. Nice little bonus.

    Adel may be the biggest threat with dealing with WB for pick 14

    • NON-MFC: Round 06

      The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.
