Completely agree. I doubt we ever had an interest in him.

    The three remaining clubs in the race are $t Kilda, Hawks and lol Carlton. Bummers obviously didn't cough up enough cash.

    His manager says that he only wants to go to a 'big' club.  I see only the Hawks left in that list.

    Not what I’ve heard. 

    We’re there at the table just not as vocal as others.

    I don't think we've got any interest in Shiel.  The report states that he's met with four clubs, three of which are in the running after ruling out the Bombers.  With our interest in May and KK, I don't think we can afford to add Shiel as well.

    - May gets Hogan’s cash, give or take.

    - Kolodjashnij on no more than an outgoing player like Dom Tyson would be on.

    - There was enough there to make a play did Gaff. Why not Shiel?

    I would agree with that, but the Saints offer is insane and might be to good to refuse.

    Which would leave him to explain to the football world why he ended up leaving for coin instead of a 'big club', as the Saints are pretty darn low on the totem pole.

    I don't think he particularly entertained leaving GWS but is one of many players being shopped for somewhat urgent cap relief, with him now being the most likely to fall first. I expect Hawthorn was his first (only) choice but the Saints are doing a Gaff/North number which could be irresistible. Alternatively, I'm completely wrong and and he wants to come home because he can get paid a fortune and might be over living in shitsville.

    Josh Mahoney was pretty vocal re: our interests on trade radio today.  Shiel didn't come up and, at this point, if we were interested then the media would have sniffed it out by now.  They've done so with our growing interest in May, KK, Preuss etc.  I doubt, with Shiel openly exploring offers back in Victoria, that we've been able to keep ours secret while others haven't.

    I mean, never say never, but I'm highly doubtful we have any interest at all in Dylan Shiel.

    I don’t know if this has been asked but don’t teams have to use a certain amount of 1st round picks in a four year cycle? The hawks haven’t used a first rd pick for a couple of years and would have to use two 1st round picks to get Shiel am I missing something?

    If the Hogan deal goes ahead, I hope we target Shiel as we'll have room in our salary cap and sufficient currency to trade.

    I don't rate Shiel as highly as others and definitely don't at the money he's asking...

    Way overs.

    Coniglio hasn't really been mentioned in trade discussions at all thus far. I'm surprised, given Shiel and Kelly have been touted. Maybe because he's a Western Australian the Victorian press have stayed clear. But I'd love to add him to our midfield.

    Is it usual for all AFL clubs to interview the top draft prospects?

    Sam Walsh is the favourite to go at No.1, he was interviewed earlier today on SEN and was asked if any clubs had spoken to him. He mentioned he has spoken to a few that finished on the bottom but also mentioned GWS has met with him.

    I found that interesting as GWS have pick 13 and had a thought that maybe they will look to trade someone like a Shiel to obtain pick 1.

    "It was reported Carlton flew Shiel to Noosa for a meeting that featured Judd, as well as coach Brendon Bolton, list boss Stephen Silvagni, football manager Brad Lloyd and billionaire Bruce Mathieson. "

    Why would billionaire Bruce Mathieson be there?

    To hand out brown paper bags?

    Smells like Carlton could be rorting the salary cap in some sneaky way.

    one of my favourite diversions is watching the US series called Ballers.

    Recent episodes have included the recruitment of a high school player to a College.

    The role of the Booster or as he preferred to be called "a dedicated supporter" should not be underestimated.

    Rorting the salary cap for Carlscum is part of their DNA, isn't it?

    • GAMEDAY: St. Kilda

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.
