    If the deal on the table for Hogan was pick 5 & Brad Hill ... would you take it?

    Send pick 5 and Frost to the Suns for May and Kolodjashnij.

    2019 R1 Side:

    Jetta May OMac

    Salem Lever Hibberd 

    Hill Oliver Kolodjashnij 

    Petracca Weideman Jones 

    Spargo TMac Melksham

    Gawn Brayshaw Viney

    Harmes Lewis ANB Hannan

    To me this is would be a significant improvement on the 2018 version of Melbourne. Shore up the defence with May while adding some class run, carry and delivery on the outside of midfield. We’ve got the grunt covered. Now’s the time to add a bit of polish. 

    Be very happy if we emerged from trade week with an outcome like this. Pretty much all depends on what Hogan does of course.

     

    Would definitely want more than Hill. I want 2 picks 1 for May and Kolodjashnij and 1 for Max King.

    Not sure what you’re trying to say here...

    None of the developments were anything to do with a public announcement and wouldn’t have been picked up by the media immediately.

    It appears others have confirmed bits & pieces, but the fact remains that my source is impeccable. I don’t push for details though, cos I’d prefer the well doesn’t run dry.

    Oh, I get it now... these major developments are happening, yet whilst you are aware of 'said' major developments as a third party, you are unwilling to obtain more information, but more than happy to let others know that you have some sort of information, that something, somewhere is occurring, at some stage.

    I wasn't expecting a media release, but assumed you would be posting, and was frothing for it...

    I particularly like this verification:

    The guy who runs my sandwich shop is mates with Boomer Harvey who happened to be there yesterday.  As I was leaving with my chicken and avo sandwich yesterday we got talking footy as we often do and I mentioned that it looked like Jessie was leaving.  Sam checked with Boomer who agreed that that was what he had heard.....take it to the bank and put it on dark rye!

    This is all happened!

    Brad Hill left hawthorn to go home to WA, why would he come back to Melbourne?? we can't just take any player we like, only originally from VIC pose realistic options i.e. brayshaw or cerra

    I get that and it’s probably a long shot. However there were stories coming out of Perth during the year that he was/is unhappy playing under Ross Lyon. Lyon himself even came out publically to try and quash the rumours. 

    It never hurts to discretely ask the question. Never say never. Things change.

    Nah...' @Mach5' mail is usually pretty good...

    He doesn't play that game.

    If he can't say more then that's fair enough by me.

    You lose a good source if you burn them.

    We get some great info on here if you know who to look for and on what subjects.

    This is not your ordinary trade period, this is one we will definitely all look back on in years to come.

    Yeah it’s definitely shaping to be the biggest trade period for a few years.

    Peter Bell tookover as footy boss at Fremantle a day or so ago. I’ve heard he’s desperate to keep Neale where the previous administration were willing to let him go to Brisbane for their first round pick in return. The first round pick from Brisbane and their own first round pick were going to be offered to Melbourne for Hogan. I wouldn’t expect to hear anything re Hogan until we know what Neale is doing. #ETthetradewhisperer.

    He’s the same poster who had a crack at me in April for defending myself with info regarding the club attempting to trade Hogan last year and it not sitting well with him...

    What a hero.

    Ah, you're one of those. 

    Do you have proof the club did that, or just piggy backing off these rumours as if they make yours more valid?

    I passed on the info...you chose not to believe it. Not much more I can do Wiseblood.

    Edit: I don’t blame you for not believing it either....I mean who the [censored] am I (on an Internet forum). I was just passing on what I was told, from the mouth of a current player at the time..

    Christ some of you people are insufferable.

    I merely wanted to give an indication that things are actually moving along, that this isn’t all just media speculation, meetings are happening and serious decisions are being made - i.e. this isn’t the Chris Judd saga where our name is thrown in there to add more interest, or one adventurous journo joined the dots based on little evidence, then the rest jumped onto a rumour to fill column inches.

    But I’m not going to spill all the beans. You’ll find out when you find out.

    • NON-MFC: Round 07

      Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?
