I am hearing that this deal will be done but maybe not till later in the trade period. The trade will hinge on a couple of other deals that might eventuate. As seems to be the case with all thee things.

If we rate him as a mid-to-late 2nd rounder, no point trading pick 22 to Freo when pick 29 might come into our hands through trade. No rush on this from our end, although Freo will be pushing.

    Hopefully we can get the Hawks 2nd round pick for Frost and pass that along. Pick 22 has a lot of value

    Surprised that anyone thinks we would downgrade pick 21 and offer a later pick for Langdon.

    He is worth every bit of that.

    He might be. But Freo did the same to us last year with Hogan.

    Apparently he still hasn't even told MFC he wants to come here. We've been talking to him for a year, trade weeks started and no decision on even coming over.

    Mmmm, I think he will come and the 'announcement' is irrelevant- there is also a gut feel that perhaps its about Freo and Melbourne sorting out what can be done  with Gus, as part of this...

    Yes, I was going to put a qualifier in there about dealing with Freo, but Mahoney sounded fairly positive as opposed to last year when his frustration was more than apparent, given Bell's antics.

    An update from Melbourne

    Melbourne's general manager of footy operations Josh Mahoney has confirmed that Collingwood's Jamie Elliott won't be coming to Melbourne.

    He also confirmed Adam Tomlinson (GWS) and Ed Langdon (Fremantle) have nominated the Demons as their club of choice, and that Angus Brayshaw is not wanted by the Dockers.

    Righto. 

    Explain to me how we caved in getting Lever and May across the line. The two biggest traded names in the last two seasons.

    Remembering that Treloar was worth two first rounders for Collingwood. Shiel worth two first rounders for Essendon. Prestia worth one first rounder for RIchmond and so on.

    People are saying this with hindsight of May and Lever being inured, which is ridiculous.

    Those two will still be massive for us in the next 3-4 years, Lever probably much longer.

    Still to play out with May, but at the time, 6 for May and KK was seen by most non MFC fans as par

    It seems to me that no matter what Melbourne do, someone here will always find a way to turn it on the club.

    Have reasonable talks about potential trade = "The clubs caved."

    Take a tough stance about potential trade = "The club has no idea what they're doing! We have to give up x pick to get them!"

    PS. If the club had truly caved for whatever Freo wanted, Freo would be getting a first round pick.

    Now that we are not getting Elliott and if he stays at the Pies, they will probably need some salary cap space, with Grundy and several other big names wanting their fair slice, I wonder if we should target Tom Langdon and unite the brothers.

    • 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.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

    • CASEY: Williamstown

      The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

      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.
