Trade rumours

The AFL and club insurers would be relieved Mummy may be retiring. The risks of a player becoming crippled will be reduced.

    This is not a rumour, but I didn't want to start a thread on it.

    Would there be any interest in Tom Campbell from the Dogs as a back up ruckman?  Has shown a little bit at AFL level and knows how to kick a goal as well.  I'm basing this suggestion on nothing more than the fact he is looking at his options and the fact we may need a little more back up for Max going forward.

    Not even 26 yet, so still has quite few years in him. If he is able to get his body right, don't see why he wouldn't be an option.

    There it is!

    Fine innings for ‘trade rumours’

    A late start in comparison with other more high profile threads, but has rocketed along to a cracking century

    All caught up in the lever deal. Trying to keep our next year first rounder which Adelaide want

    No way we should be bundling up next years first rouder in the lever deal.

    Now that Fasolo is out ofthe WC  trade ,  I would not be suprised if Dean Kents name is thrown around at the trade table

    Would prefer Zac Clarke as a DFA.

    I feel sorry for anyone who listens to that Trade Radio.

    They've been going from 7am to 6pm every day since Monday and not one trade has happened.

    What the fark would they have to talk about by today?

    I was listening on Monday morning when trade period opened, and Cornes and whoever else were making a big song and dance every time a club arrived to Etihad. And then a player agent arrived and they started crapping on that they only turn up when a deal is imminent. It was all a bit sad.

    Might be worth listening to for the last few days, but even then, it is rare that any deals are done completely out of blue that genuinely surprise you. Garlett coming to Melbourne was one I remember hearing about for the first time as it was announced on the radio, but that was a one off.

    Any rumours on whether we have a small forward who adds forward pressure and a little goalkicking nous in our sights, if we're going to be ridding the forward line of a 3rd tall ?

    would it work if Jack got a crew cut and wore flatties ?

    I see. So google tells me he's contracted until the end of 2018, so Hawthorn have probably not offered an extension? He was also 2nd in the 'forward half pressure' graph that 'on the couch' displayed last week. Given we're not going to trade second round picks that Hawthorn might demand, it would put us out of the picture?

    Turns 30 in December. Hawthorn would offload him for anything decent ie. a 3rd rounder. Pressure is still decent but that's about all he's got.

    I think forward pressure is a young mans game, and it's also a team effort. Garlett, ANB and probably Harmes are the incumbent pressure players - when on they are all pretty decent tacklers. I'm keen to see Vanders back. Think we can get something from Melksham or Balic on a flank. Talls need to do much more.

    Probably looking at one more pressure player. DJ the one on the list for that role. I'd go the draft for another speedy tackler.

    He’s inconsistent at best.

    In addition, 1 goal from 4 grand finals suggests he may not be the cherry on top player we’re looking for.

    • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

    • 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.
