Pick 11 33 and 2019 first rounder for may and Kolo?

so effectively it’s 11, 16-18 and 33 

 

its possibly overs but if we bring in May and keep 5 I am okay with that 

If we lose Hogan & Tyson and get May, Preuss , Kolodjashnij and PICK 5, then Trade Week is a huge tick.

OK, so no to the Tyson part of the deal.

 

How about

 

So now, how about...

Neale to brisbane for 5

hogan to Freo for 5, 11

Kent to saints for pick 39

Kelity, 11, + 39 - for May and KK

or

11, 36 and 39 for May and KK

 

?? should get it done...

Who said they want Keilty. But if he did and they did, it's a  yes from me.

Suns will get a high compo pick for May if they hold onto him next year.

I very much doubt they will take 11 and change.

They won't get the pick 3 comparable if they go up the ladder a few spots and it could be 7 or 8 at best.

Therefore 11 is not that far away and they are pretty desperate to put this to bed this trade period and not have the disruption next year.

I would not lose Sam Frost and that is way overs anyway.

11 is possibly unders so maybe we sweeten the deal with a later pick.

Port were willing to give overs to get pick 6 mate! Losing 11, Frost and our 2nd round pick or so is going to be far more pallatable than watching an elite pick 5 talent in other colors.

Pick 39 from saints is for Hannebery, Kent will be for a pick 50+

Gold Coast will demand Pick 5, if May leaves next year as a FA they'll get a first round compo which would be pick 2 if they finish last.

Pick 5 is fair for May and KK.

And if they win the flag pick 19. So GCS are gambling that they will be worse next year? A bird in the hand.

Which is basically the same as what @mauriesy said, which you challenged, then started talking about cars.  Ok.

You don't like cars?

If Rohan is in your top 8, then you are in serious trouble.

I agree completely. We pay overs that trade but win overall.

Would Gold Coast accept 11 and 30 something for May when they can get more next year?

I think Pick 5 may have to be used.

Quite possibly.  As much as Id like to take 5 to the draft,  I'm not against something like pick 5 for May, pick 19 and pick 29 or similar. 

Would leave us with Hogan for May and Picks 11, 19 and 29.

How about Sam Frost and a pick in the 30's with 11? I'm not sure i'd take that as a GC fan. They'd probably only take 5 as they can't be bothered asking for more to bring it to that pick 3 comparable trade that they'd get next year. Pick 11 couldn't possibly be on their agenda without A LOT of sweetness.

Frost is actually a very good idea. Bringing in May makes either Frost or Oscar surplus to our needs (a little like Tyson). GCS will need an immediate defender replacement. 

11 and Frost for May might be agood result for all parties (clubs and players).

18 minutes ago, The Chazz said:

What about Pick 11, and MFC 2019 First Round Pick, for May, KK and Pick 19?

When we win the flag next year that is just pick 11 for May and KK! If they aren't happy with 11 for May, they won't go for this.

I really can't imagine GC accepting pick 11 for May - do people really see this happening? 

Considering they would almost certainly get a pick between 1-5 as compo next year.. Hope I'm wrong, though! 

Think we also need to consider the relationship between May and GC right now. Yes, they may get better compensation next year but they may also want to say goodbye this year as he hasn't treated them particularly well with no decision yet on whether he's staying or going. At least I'm hoping that might be the case.

GC won't cop pick 11 for Steven May, nor should they. 

 

Pick 5 is a good result for all parties. Get it done!

Kent out as well, but also manage to keep AVB!

We were never going to get 5 & 6 for Hogan.  We might now get 5 & 11.  11 To be on traded for May.  

5 we can take to the draft or deal with Adelaide for 13 and 21 or similar. 

why would gold coast accept pick 11 for may when they get a top 3-5 pick for him next year through afl compensation. do your research!

Must be for you as for all your chest beating and broughahas you seem oblivious to the point.

You don't know what cards the club holds...or what it has half a hand on via other tentative deals but it's all about those magic numbers

You presume what certain picks will garner in other trades then call prematurely on something not even done yet.

Trade period is like playing darts with a revolving board. It's a fluid environment where very little is fixed.

 

It was a hypothetical question. Feel free to answer it if you like

Keilty and Drunkn167 is overs :laugh:

What if they win the flag next year? AFL compo pick no better than pick 19, do your research.

They're probably just killing some boredom too.

Can't be easy waffling for hour after hour to gin up excitement over a snail race

DONE DEAL | Fremantle has traded its Rd 1 (6), and its Future Round Three Selection to Port Adelaide for its Rd 1 (11), Rd 2 (23), Rd 2 (30), Rd 3 (49)

I believe now that MFC have had this all along and know what they wanted . Freo will trade Neil today as well.

  • GAMEDAY: Richmond

    It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG to face the Tigers in their annual Blockbuster on ANZAC Eve for the 10th time. The Dees will be desperate to reignite their stuttering 2025 campaign and claim just their second win of the season. Can the Demons dig deep and find that ANZAC Spirit to snatch back to back wins?

  • PREVIEW: Richmond

    A few years ago, the Melbourne Football Club produced a documentary about the decade in which it rose from its dystopic purgatory of regular thrashings to the euphoria of a premiership victory. That entire period could have been compressed in a fast motion version of the 2025 season to date as the Demons went from embarrassing basket case to glorious winner in an unexpected victory over the Dockers last Saturday. They transformed in a single week from a team that put in a pedestrian effort of predictably kicking the ball long down the line into attack that made a very ordinary Bombers outfit look like worldbeaters into a slick, fast moving side with urgency and a willingness to handball and create play with shorter kicks and by changing angles to generate an element of chaos that yielded six goals in each of the opening quarters against Freo.

  • 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.

  • PREGAME: Richmond

    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?
