Adelaide also have Blues 2nd round pick (about 20) this year as part of the Gibbs deal and gave back their 2nd rounder (26ish). So they might have picks 2 (Carlton PP?), 9, 16 (from us) and 20.

    They want Lukosius.

    I’m sure they do. They can’t keep anyone who isn’t local at their club.

    Maybe, but Fogarty and Lukosius will be their key forwards for years to come, if they can get him.

    https://www.theage.com.au/sport/afl/crow-walks-out-contracted-mcgovern-demands-a-trade-20180828-p500d6.html

    Can see why the Crows must be a lovely place to be.....or not!

     

    "In June Fairfax Media reported that McGovern had sought to move club's during last year's trade period despite agreeing to a three-year contract extension in late August, because he felt the Crows had short-changed him in the deal.

     

    It’s believed McGovern had agreed to the Adelaide deal because the club said it had no more room in its salary cap.

    The Crows then signed Bryce Gibbs from Carlton in a deal worth more per season than McGovern."

    Funny how he is IN CONTRACT and walker hasn’t said a word but rather pic on a player who chose to leave and was OOC. 

    Walker is the worst captain in the afl. 

    The biggest sook going around imo.

    He will be going to Fremantle, they missed on Hogan and with Melbourne making the finals they see getting Hogan a long way off.  Freo have a lot of cash to spend, it will cost them their first and second round pick and in return they will get this bloke and pick the second round pick from Adelaide.

    Adelaide will package up picks for Carlton to get the Number 1 pick.

    He might need time to build up his idiot charge and unleash the mother of all stupid comments.

    I have faith that he'll say something stupid about this at some point. Not sure he can help himself.

    Over rated like his brother although hopefully doesnt turn out as lazy .

    A good year for Adelaide to stock up on youngsters from SA, as the draft is apparently strong on SA talent.  With Jerkins and Tex, they can probably do fine without him.  Not a bad play if they can get some high picks.  We have absolutely no need, and should have even smaller interest.  Can see Blues and Norf opening their cheque books on this one.

    Brian Taylor has gone whack at Tex, citing his hypocrisy over how he is treating McGovern compared to Lever last year.

    Brian Taylor went up in my eyes for having a go at that clown Tex.

    No wonder they lost the grand final:  "... it does go back to around about this time last year were they ostracizied the man who was going to play centre half back in a Grand Final team to the point where, as Sam Newman revealed on the Footy Show, he wasn’t even sitting with teammates in the airport coming to Melbourne for the grand final..." (Extract from that article).

    But Tex gives his buddy, Dangerfield hi5's!  Hypocrite.

    First Lever then the camp, Tex is almost singlehandedly bringing that club to its knees.  I wonder how long it will take bookmakers to take odds on his departure as Captain...

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

    • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.
