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.

    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.

    Walker is the biggest hypocrite in the AFL.

    Brian Taylor is one of the most unpleasant people I have ever met. At least you can have a beer with 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: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.
