Easily the worst trade rumors thread in the history of ever.

It sucks so much, even Dyson have asked for the recipe. 

Major suckage.

So why aren't we after him....

Who says we're not?

Realistically, we have other more pressing needs at the moment. Having said that, I would prefer him in the forward line ( and rotating through the midfield) over the Buggonaut

Maybe next time you could just ask "where did you hear that", instead of "and you know this because....".

Shane Mumford may be retiring due to his foot injury and GWS will be hunting for a new ruckman.
Dylan Shiel is available for the right draft pick.

Hang on. What? Shiel is their best mid by quite a stretch. Gun. He has that pace from stoppages that we need too.

This confuses me. Mumford is retiring and therefore Shiel is available?

Maybe Brayshaw Self is alluding to the idea of a Gawn for Shiel swap, if Kelly was staying. I don't know how we could get Shiel if we were targeting Lever with our picks.

Two separate points, sorry.

Probably Kelly, but I wouldn't throw Shiel back...

I'd also have Callan ward and Steven coniglio when he's fit in the conversation. Different kinds of mids but can also play some absolutely elite footy

Easy, swap Spencer for Shiel. No steak knives necessary

True. Kelly may have gone past him, but Shiel has been doing it for years now. 

I'm very intrigued by the Shiel comment though. @Brayshaw Self, is he on the table or is he seeking a trade? Bizarre, if they've put him on the table.

Kelly is too expensive.  bidding for him is crazy stakes.  We can find our own.

But Shiel is worth looking at.

They'd want to throw in a second rounder at least. Spencer is taller than Shiel for starters.

I think it's situational. With Garland, I'd keep him on the list as depth (give his contract).

Most of us supporters given our age would probably think you're situationally delusional !

Can't see them satisfying Brissy with a trade, I know they've got 2 first rounders but they'll be something like picks 14 and 16, so might need to trade down to get the pick/s that Brissy might demand. I wonder if we could send pick 10, plus something else to Richmond to get their 2 first rounders, maybe our 2nd this year as well. Then use 2 first rounders, either as a trade (Lever/Gaff etc) and still get a young player - not a huge difference between a player rated at pick 10 compared to pick 16? 

Do you really think Schache would cost more in picks than Lever?

If Giants are worried that Mumford may be done, Goldstein would make a whole lot of sense for them. Part of a potential Kelly deal?

Yes, but he wants out it would seem

Stringer off to Peptides or puddy tatts apparently

Interesting if Stringer becomes Cats priority. Devon Smith still looks on the way out at GWS, and can't see Geelong getting both, wonder we can steal in there?

HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields. Rehab: Jake Lever and Charlie Spargo running laps.  Lever was running short distances at a fast click as well as having kick to kick with a trainer. He seems unimpeded. Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
