It's been photoshopped now so it's a done deal. Is that how it works?

Classic! So some yobbo on SEN was definitely on the money then. (no offence to caller).

All i can say is "ye of little faith"

On Trac, he will gradually have that inevitable body change from Jarman (similar ability)  to Flower/Schwartz (pure poise and power)

 

[censored] he has to lose some weight to get a body shaped like Tulip's. About 30 kegs I'd reckon

tis a time to dream

waking up can be left to another day...........after our premiership hangover


Imagine that...

We gave up our pick 2 to GWS in 2013 who picked Josh Kelly & we will need to pay overs to get him now...

No doubt, which is exactly why his last several games have been putrid

He has played 30 games of footy

Considering we're a finals bound team with many valued players tradewise even without his addition, shows we've still done well out of that trade. To have a player become a superstar like him and come to us, means we'd be paying unders to get him ie we have enough depth if we trade a good player and our first round picks are not high ones. 2x Pick 12-18

Good player but from what I am hearing the peptiders are in poll position on this one. With Jobe, Stanton and a few others finishing up they have a lot to play with.

Just funny how things could work out...We got Tyson, Salem & Hunt from this deal so was a win on both teams


The Draft and Trading board is going to be great this year.    Great players possibly on the move (Lever, Kelly), we are a destination club finally and we own our 1st rounder unlike last season. 

But whats even greater is that it isnt open yet! And hopefully isnt until our last game is finished (ie. the Grand Final)

Heard a strong rumour that Kelly is deal done to Dons.

For what that's worth. ;)

1c :P

I'd be a bit annoyed. I mean we have Salem and Tyson. But the fact we could have had him for just one first rounder, and will have to give up way more to get him now is a bit embarrassing.

Check the date on that paper. It might be referring to James Kelly going to Essendon as a top-up player.

I heard the same thing as well. Guess with Watson leaving and having few star players gives the filth some $$$ to throw at him.

Under Roos we payed unders for everyone.

If we have learnt anything as a club we will not touch him.

Jeff Garlett says hi, along with plenty of mates.

I've heard Richmond have an offer for him that's as good as any if dusty does go.

We also got hunt in that deal. Good deal i reckon

St Kilda will have a bookies bag to throw around with Riewoldt and Montagna retiring . SO do not count therm out. Maybe we could get Seb Ross as an outside Mid.


Let's at least have a shot at Kelly 

who's up for trade bait ?

now that's another whole thread !

Tyson

kent

spencer

Source? Sauce? What sort of sauce? 

And I guess Gillon would be fully on board (and maybe offering some gentle persuasion) as the poor Druggies were so hardly done by.

Were R and M veterans, and if so would their departure free up quite so much?

Just to be sure you are not taking the pizz....

Don't be revisionist. When we did that deal we were desperate to inject some talent into the side immediately. We won 2 games for the year and had Terlich and Matt Jones finish 3rd and 4th in our B&F. It was a dire situation. 

We did the pick 2 deal and got Tyson and Salem. Tyson's first year was a stand out. Had we taken Kelly and had to wait 4 years for him to blossom who knows where we would be.

My brother (who's a Dons tragic) plays footy with a Don's bigwig, reckons it's been a lock for months...

Yeah people say that. I don't buy it. I reckon had we waited for another round, or waited for rookies he'd still be ours. He was completely out of nowhere. Noone saw him coming. Incidental where the pick was.

  • REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

  • CASEY: Essendon

    Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

  • PREGAME: Gold Coast

    The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

    The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
