If I was West Coast and Gaff nominated MFC I'd match and request a tall in trade.  Kennedy is close to retirement age and McGovern can play forward or back.  I think OMac, Frost and Weed would be in play if it was me.

I think they would have their eyes on Kelly, who they could most likely get for the compo pick for Gaff and also save cap room.

If that is happening they clearly won't match.

The real question is who will Gaff nominate.

3 important players there. Deals off for mine

Other midfielders can be found

Kelly is contracted and Geelong said they wont trade him.  I believe them too.

If wife and kids go home, most likely husband/father does too.

Interesting that OMAC hasn't signed yet? What WCE payed McGovern was pretty top line and unbelievable.

Bombers fans are convinced Gaff will nominate them. Im not so sure.

Polec has been offered a fortune at North, and Port are preparing for him to take it.

Reckon Shiel is a big chance to get to Essendon if they dont get Gaff.

Glad we have finals to focus on this year.

18 is still in the first round.

I was using the term 'second round" to distinguish it from a low first round pick.

For example no one would accept Weideman as a trade for the a low first round pick (top5)  but a high first/ low second round is about his worth.

The point I was trying to make is that free agency perversely benefits the higher ranked clubs because assuming they can match offers there is a lesser incentive for them to take the compensatory pick. Mind you I prefer this to the power club getting the high worth pick.

Not sure that free agency is really doing much other than giving the players a little salary leverage. Perhaps a subject for the off season.

We will trump at least one of these teams and get the guy we want.  Whether thats Gaff, Shiel or someone we dont even know about yet.

We are THE destination club now...  well along with Hawthorn who to their credit do nothing but win year in and year out and don't bottom out.

Gaff isn't a match winner, he isn't a key position player he sits out on the fringe of the contest and can use the ball well.  If he nominates us he should come as a free agent only no kicker back to West Coast.

I don't mind Dom Sheed as well, has struggled a bit this year but looked good on Sunday

We aren't building the cake so to speak, we are in icing territory and we need skills and outside talent to take the next step and win a flag.

No. This year he has added an inside element to his game. He's now a classy outsider who also does inside work very well. 

I'd pass on Sheed ATM

There’s no way that any deal is 100% done at this time of year. 

When do you think we had Lever sewn up? Lynch to Tigers? Scully when he jumped to the Giants? It wouldn't surprise me if there are unofficial MOU's a year out

But if they match the offer they lose their compo and would want something as good as Gaff. That is where the attraction would be lost.

And if no trade gets done they keep him

Let them spend on Gaff let's go after Shiel

Exactly. 10 yrs ago I believed things were done at end of season.  Not now, do I,,, am I so naive.

 

I think Barassi's return, was at least, 1Yr in the making, ahead of it happening.


Sorry to be the bearer of bad news but Gaff won't be off to MFC.

I am hearing some hot sauce that he is off to...

 

Wait for it

 

Canberra to be on ScoMo's ticket.

 

Thanks mods :mistake emoji:

[if the mods can't see the humour in this, please delete. Intended as light hearted distraction.]

But you couldn't just add this to the Gaff thread...??

 

It’s been a long few days, the post has gone over my head. Is he off to GWS?

Based on Sundays game Im not sure how useful McGovern is as a forward. lacks some skill and class for mine.

  • AFLW REPORT: St. Kilda

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
