Perhaps Peter Bell is 'the real victim here'... having watched too many episodes of Suits and/or the movie Draft Day - doesn't understand that they're fictional.

    Haha Bell is totally Lewis Litt from season 1. 

    Such a chump who no body in the office likes.

    The above, and -  if Jessie's not looking at a premiership (if he was then the least disruptive course would be to sign-on for longer with us) and instead a fresh start after a personally hellish few years, then the anonymity that comes with Queensland footy could hold the answer. 

    Both Brisbane and Gold Coast are well placed to provide potentially satisfying trades from the MFC's perspective.

    Which would put paid to the wanna go home reasoning.  

    Similarities with Mitch ? who desperately wanted Perththen was lured my Melbourne $$$, broke his foot and headed off to another suitor.

    On SEN this morning Watson said that Freo don't want to make the same mistake they made with Bennell. Hmm interesting comment!!!!!!

     

    Has Jesse got issues with his calves? Because to be fair, that was the primary issue that sent Bennell away from focusing on his footy.

    And what would that discussion be I wonder? We still want you Jesse but we don't want to pay the big bad east coast side what you are worth because I am short and I have to make up for my inadequacies by showing how tough I am and smart too, but it's not about how fantastic & tough I am it's all about you Joffa sorry what was your name again?

    He thinks he is Sonny Weaver Jr but is more likely to end up Jeff Carson.

    I'm a bit confused about all the wrist slashing.

    Option One:  We trade Hogan to our advantage (as determined by the FD)

    Option Two:  We keep Jesse who is an elite talent.

    What's the problem?

    whats the problem?

    quite simple....we wouldn't have him for very long before it all goes deja vu

    A lot of people have made some very stupid comments here on this thread and they should be held to account! Next Wednesday night blame will be apportioned, those like me who were right all along will be vindicated. Those who made the wrong call get to choose between the Ricky Nixon or Peter Bell avatar for life. I think the blame apportioning should be carried out by committee and expect it could run for a week or two.

    I've given up with draft theories, pick swapping, home sicknesses and the like. 

    This is exactly how the AFL want draft week to play out, so the public continues to talk about football instead of Cricket, Soccer, Basketball etc. 

    This all should have been completed within a week.

    Yes, and all dignity and morality means absolutely nothing if an improved dollar outcome is chased - whether received or just missed.

    As that was one of the stupidest comments on the thread, special robert, does that mean you are volunteering for the aforementioned avatars as a form of sanction? Bezel and I would be happy to so apportion.

    I can't be stuffed going through all the pages - last I heard Freo had released a statement saying they weren't pursuing this anymore? Am I missing something? 

    No, you’re on the money Mondè.

    Hogan will be at Melbourne for another 12 months. May won’t be coming. 

    Freo aren’t giving us pick 5 for Hogan even if they do send Neale to Brisbane. 

    All the trade permutations posters on here are rambling on with will be for nought.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

    • CASEY: Williamstown

      The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

      The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
