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.

    Crows apparently are happy to trade him.

    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: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
