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

    Highway robbery if true.

    Cameron 2 first rounders plus

    Sideshow 33 and change

    Wright for a fourth rounder

    Tmac - no suitors

    Its a mugs game.  No logic at all. No market value, just value to trading parties

    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.

    Elwood.

    I think all the old victorian inner city teams need to stick together. i hope North bounce back.

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

    • 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.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
