Hogan         a  potential  champ but a long way to go.We dont want to loose him.This could be as bad as 65 when RDB left to go the blues,which totally destroyed the mfc ,you cant throw away champions

The trade offer from Freo does not match the size of the contract or JH age. Its a BS low ball offer straight out of Trumps “Art of the Deal”.  Its designed to try and force MFC into a mid position. Problem is that this tactic only works when you are in a position of power. In this instance Jesse has not requested a trade and is  contracted.

Bell needs to read up on negotiation tactics. This is amateur hour. 

The only strategy left for MFC is to walk away and force JH to play out his contract.

BB you keep hinting that there is a secret big cross against JH, but at the moment the only evidence of it is Freo's weak offer.   Until someone produces some more evidence, I'll just assume Freo are just waiting till next year.

There's something not quite right... surely. 

Love to know what . 

I ask myself....why ARE we now quite keen to see off Jesse ?

Why aren't Freo so enraptured at having the opportunity ?

Why isn't WCE sniffing at the door ?

I'm not sure as to the nature of this animal ....not any more.

I haven't been one to rate Hogan nearly as high as many, but that aside this offer is below low ball. Ambit for sure...but still.

There's dealing...and there's poking the bear.

Very odd

People are missing the point. Ignore the final offer bit. They are now making an offer. Plenty of time for more "final offers" between now and Wednesday.

These nuffs will say anything for a news grab but none of them are ever held accountable. Ever.

See Damien Barrett for his nonsense call on Dayne Beams.

Honestly, football news breakers are the lowest of common denominators.

They're genuine scum.

Yeh I said it.

Scum.

How I read it:

Freo offer 11 and future 2nd. Everybody outraged.

They then real late in the piece appear to concede and swap pick 11 for 5 and we accept.

However they are just trying to avoid giving up 5 and 11. I hope we call their bluff and keep young Jesse

Thing is GNF Fremantle need hogan, they have nothing to sell to their members and so on. The club is a mess and they desperately need a big signing. Jesse answers their prayers but sadly bell is trying to puff his chest out and wants to get hogan, lobb and keep pick 5, or Neale. 

Give us pick 11, 2019 first and Ed Langdon and we are closer to the mark.

Re your questions: I'm just guessing....:

1.  Keen because we'd rather lose him now than in a year

2.  We don't know they aren't enraptured. They may just be very odd negotiators.

3. Maybe WCE are or would like to be but I understood they had nothing to trade now.

Do they have 5?

Bloody Fremantle...

"DAYNE Beams will play at Brisbane next year, according to the club.

The Lions today rubbished a potential trade of Beams to Collingwood.

It is understood speculation can be traced back to Fremantle, which is in trade talks with the Lions over ball magnet Lachie Neale."

https://www.heraldsun.com.au/sport/afl/more-news/trade-daily-live-rolling-trade-news-from-around-australia-for-thursday-october-11-2018/live-coverage/2becfdb638de0350c2beca79da8cc92c#51073

Well Dodoro's title of Trade Week Ars-hole,  has probably been taken by Bell. He is actually seeking to destabilize clubs and players, if this report is true.

He should be taken to task by the other clubs.

Dayne beans requests trade back to Collingwood. 

Can someone imagine some complicated way this could facilitate the Neale deal? 

Maybe the Pies are nagging away with more cashe`, since the GF loss...  and Gaff signing back on with WCE.

Edee is a deetermined El Pres.

I think Moore signed back on with the Pies, when it seemed May wanted to be with the Dees.

 

So Yes I can imagine some 'Beams' deal getting done, for a pick keeping the Lions in the Early draft.

It feels like Freo want their cake, and eat one as well.

Freo cannot offer 5 as they do not hav it yet.  They have put an offer on the table relating to their best current pick.  We say no, do better, and see what emerges if the Neale deal drops.

But they said its their final offer!

    TRAINING: Tuesday 28th May 2024

    Veteran Demonland Trackwatcher Kev Martin returned to the training track to bring you the following observations from Gosch's Paddock this morning. Beautiful morning for training. The dew has dried, out from AAMI, quiet chatting. Maysie does his heart symbol. 7 in rehab, Turner, Hore, Sestan, BBB, Petty, Spargo and Schache. All in runners. Melky weighted and change of angles work. Salem has his individual program. White cap (no contact), Howes, Woewodin and Sparrow

    GALLANT by KC from Casey

    The world “gallant” is not one that is readily acceptable to losing teams in our game of football so when it was used in the context of the Casey Demons’ loss to Sandringham in yesterday’s match at Casey Fields, it left a bitter taste in the mouth.  The Demons went into the game against the St Kilda affiliated Zebras with the advantage of playing on their home turf (not that this has been a major asset in 2024) and with very little else going in their favour. The Saints have close to a full

    MEANWHILE by Whispering Jack

    … meanwhile, at about the same time that Narrm was putting its feet on the accelerator to obliterate the long-suffering Euro-Yroke combination, I heard someone mention in passing that Kuwarna was leading Waalitj Marawar by a whopping 46 to 1 halfway through the second quarter of their game over in Adelaide. “What is football coming to?” I asked myself.  In front of my eyes, the Demons were smashing it through the midfield, forcing turnovers and getting the footy to their forwards who w

    HEAVEN OR HELL by The Oracle

    Clashes between Melbourne and St Kilda are often described as battles between the forces of heaven and hell. However, based on recent performances, it’s hard to get excited about the forthcoming match between these two sides. It would be fair to say that, at the moment, both of these teams are in the doldrums. The Demons have become the competition’s slow starters while the Saints are not only slow to begin, they’re not doing much of a job finishing off their games either. About the only th
