I wanted Papley as well, but he's likely going to Carlton.  Let's see what they pay for him and that might explain why we aren't chasing him.  

Carlton has become more of a destination than us - what an amazing fall given the expectations, respectively, at the start of this year.

I think they just have more cash to throw around given retirements and the fact they have a young list.

Carlton had a older and more experienced team than us on the weekend and have had for most of the year.

Maybe last weekend. But don't forget we had Tom McDonald, Steve May & Neville Jetta all out for the remainder of the year.

Those three would take up a bit of salary space.

Herald sun reporting Dees win race to sign him and he has agreed in principle to a deal.

He would fit in perfectly

No mucking around by Ed if the article is accurate, skipped mad Monday to ramp up talks. Good on him for eagerly wanting to be a Demon. Just get a deal done now.

Cool. Now, have we booked him a barber's appointment yet?

Melbourne has won the race for Ed Langdon, with the Fremantle speedster committed to joining the Demons.

Langdon jetted in to Melbourne on Monday, skipping the Dockers’ mad Monday celebrations to ramp up talks on his future.

Nah. Buns are a prerequisite for entry into Revolver.

[Leoncelli_36 2,264]

HE was pick 54 in his draft year. Out of contract. Third rounder and something fringe the other way. Is that what gets it done? 

[Diamond_Jim 12,568]

This is good.

Straight through the PSD and #$^&  Freo.

AFL have done us over by giving GCS a priority pick so it's time to play hard.

No.

Happy to trade TMac for pick 53?

No but I wouldn’t overrate Langdon. Freo supporters can not wait to see the back of him. He can’t hit a target, so will fit right in and we will probably hand over our first round pick for Langdon and their first round. Pick 3 wil go on to be a star and we will bank another middle of the roader and soon find out Langdon is a butcher.

Some talk Brandon Matera may also look elsewhere, showed this year he was a dangerous small forward. i wonder if we could get him as well?

I will actually stop supporting Melbourne if we bring him in. He is the worst.

Having dealt with a few Freo fans, I can confidently say that is not the case.

The kid can play. Turns it over occasional but  gets the ball a lot and gains meters. 

Matches up well with Sidebottom who is  considered by many as an elite outside player.

Langdon is a gun mate. Pick 20 will get it done but Freo will probably attempt to bargain for more

Yeah sure,

This is a very good get from the club who has been very keen on him for a few years now.  Of course a lot comes down to what we hand over, but he is a high quality player with many of the attributes we lack.

With Cognilio off the market, Langdon becomes one of the better players known to be on the market this off season.
