lucas was pretty clear that it'll happen late, once everything else has played out - they're working towards the wednesday deadline

just reading AFL website - GC using PSD against Adelaide in Greenwood deal. if GC are 100% locked in on Greenwood and going to shaft Adelaide. leaves us with PSD2 as a free hit for Langdon. would wait on dealing out 2nd rounder for him. just to [censored] you Bell

Edited by jako13


Think this will go late and also think/hope it will involve splitting the pick. Freo will want to get the Hill trade done so they have better idea of where their at. Langdon + pick 6&7 for pick 3,22, future 2nd and third. Just hoping have no info 

Means they will have pick 3 will be able to pick up Henry too and their academy players next year.

If GC push Greenwood through to the PSD, then we should absolutely do the same with Langdon.

Freo marching around banging on their tiny chest like they are King Kong.

I was just thinking that too.

Clubs have held off doing that for some years now, but I think once one does it, there might be some flood gates creaking at the hinges. If a club like Freo decides to make a preek of themselves and not play fair, they deserve to be taught a lesson IMO

we would be mad not to.

It's one of the few upsides from this disastrous year.

Our pick 2 is almost a high pick 1. Should get us something decent at the draft and we need some quality draftees.

My offer to Freo would be this years third or next years second. If not PSD.

It's funny, we want to give up next years second, but that pick might help us get King next year if we want him. By giving it up we hurt our chances (maybe we are no chance anyway).

A bird in the hand...

Langdon wants to come to us.  I've seen or heard no indication whatsoever that King wants to come to Melbourne.

 

My AFL daily email says we are confident of getting Langdon deal done by end of week, which I assume is tomorrow.

How would a second rounder next year land us King???

I have an inkling that some here are going to be miffed when we pay more than pick 21.

No knowledge, just from previous dealings where Mahoney has given what he feels is fair market value fr his targeted player.

 

Langdon is going to be a super pickup for us. Will be delighted if it is just pick 21.

especially when it doesn't need to be paid.

Won't surprise me though....

To me the value is what is paid to the player...the trade to the former club is just a device... nothing fair or otherwise about it. Ask the power clubs using the Free agency to pillage the lesser clubs.

If Gold Coast has used the P.S.D as a threat against the Crows, it would certainly push the Dockers to accept a lesser deal than they would like in an ideal world.

 

I will be happy with a 2nd round pick. Langdon is a quality player.

GCS were always low risk to take Langdon so the option has been there for a long time. It just needed to be played out properly and Freo would have been ripe for a thrid rounder or a deferred second

There is no way they’ll pay more than this 


Our second rounder is fair. If it ends up being that for Langdon then it's a good deal for everyone involved.

Langdon for pick 22 is fair. He is and will be a very good pickup.  Has the outside run that we desperately need. 

It’s been the go. Hope Freo aren’t being ridiculous and asking for more.

Might need to find a set of steak knives to go with that.

I'd really like us to be holding out for our future 2nd rounder, play some hardball with them....oh wait we don't do that!

Langdon pick 22, Murray DFA, Tomlinson RFA. Not too bad if you ask me. 

And some pick upgrades would be an excellent trade week result.

Any info ET or just guessing?

  • 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.

    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.
