first post in years. looks like we will have to get a deal done, a work colleague, she's a big dees fan, who's brother was in Bali with Jesse, from WA, good mates,  Jesse has said to him he will not sign a new deal with Melbourne if he isn't traded, he will walk end of next year, Freo are aware of this too, they just think his demands are too high. Sad really. So will it force us to take unders? Or Hold tight?  seems determined to go home.

 

Casey seconds might have a new power forward next year!! HaHa

If thats the case then i want him gone by 8:30pm tonight.

Don't want a bloke that has his heart set on leaving by round 1 next year.

See ya hoges.. enjoy life with Ross the boss

It's over, mate. He's gone. He'll be a Docker tonight. (speculation...)

Looks like Brisbane are about to trade pick 5 to Port for Pick 6 and player.

IF this is true what an absolute [censored]. 

We have been so accommodating to him, he will be at best a 35 goal per year forward at freo...

Actually scrap that with Neale gone and Fyfe will get his annual injury he will be lucky to hit 30.

Looks like #6 might have started its move.

So Port get Burton, Mayes and 2 x First Round Picks #5 & #15 for Wingard and Pick #6

And were struggling to get 1 first round pick for Hogan? What has the world come to?

He might wish to walk end of next but he will still need to be traded. I want him gone tonight.

They got up one spot so technically they received pick 15, Burton and Mayes for Wingard.

Yes and we lose a 23 year old contracted Key forward for a pretty poor deal...

 

So pick 6 and 15 for neale?? 

6 and 11 for hogan 

15 for lobb

Wingard the perfect Cyril replacement for the  Hawks.  They will never go away.

Oh well, guess we will just have to eliminate them from the finals again.  :laugh:

mmmm Shiel is just a bit over rated IMO....

I think May fills more of a need for us. 

 

I think we need another good midfielder over another key defender.

no chance... 6 & 30 something.

Which would mean pick 6 and 15 for Hogan, then Pick 6 for May.

JT goes to the draft with pick 15.

Loving it.

We're getting shafted.


For all Mahoney's talk of being happy to keep Jesse unless we get a deal up there with the best ever, we are about to capitulate and trade out the best young key forward in the game for significant unders, while in the premiership window. So frustrating and disappointing. For all the rubbish Bell has copped, he has actually done a bloody good job for his football club. Mahoney could actually learn a few things from him with regards to playing hardball.

Port have 15, so won't be part of Neale deal.

Hogan will be 6 and 23.

But we get that mid teen pick I suggested to be used on a Hibbard understudy from the west.

The latest 8 club mega deal coming up on AFL Trade Radio Facebook has us losing Hogan for May, KK and pick 23.  I don't mind that.  No idea of course of if it's complete fiction or close to the mark.

 


All talk outside of trade room is waffle.

Talk inside is the deal

Who here is privy to that ? SFA I'd think.

Wait and watch

We'll end up with a better list and that my friends is ALL that MATTERS

Over the years we have seen SO many supposedly poor deals, that end up nothing like what was rumoured.

Starting to heat up now. Refresh button set to "dynamic"

11 is better as dockers would have used that pick on him. Will be a gun

  • CASEY: Sydney

    The Casey Demons were always expected to emerge victorious in their matchup against the lowly-ranked Sydney Swans at picturesque Tramway Oval, situated in the shadows of the SCG in Moore Park. They dominated the proceedings in the opening two and a half quarters of the game but had little to show for it. This was primarily due to their own sloppy errors in a low-standard game that produced a number of crowded mauls reminiscent of the rugby game popular in old Sydney Town. However, when the Swans tired, as teams often do when they turn games into ugly defensive contests, Casey lifted the standard of its own play and … it was off to the races. Not to nearby Randwick but to a different race with an objective of piling on goal after goal on the way to a mammoth victory. At the 25-minute mark of the third quarter, the Demons held a slender 14-point lead over the Swans, who are ahead on the ladder of only the previous week's opposition, the ailing Bullants. Forty minutes later, they had more than fully compensated for the sloppiness of their earlier play with a decisive 94-point victory, that culminated in a rousing finish which yielded thirteen unanswered goals. Kicks hit their targets, the ball found itself going through the middle and every player made a contribution.

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    Hands up if you thought, like me, at half-time in yesterday’s game at TIO Traeger Park, Alice Springs that Melbourne’s disposal around the ground and, in particular, its kicking inaccuracy in front of the goals couldn’t get any worse. Well, it did. And what’s even more damning for the Melbourne Football Club is that the game against St Kilda and its resurgence from the bottomless pit of its miserable start to the season wasn’t just lost through poor conversion for goal but rather in the 15 minutes when the entire team went into a slumber and was mugged by the out-of-form Saints. Their six goals two behinds (one goal less than the Demons managed for the whole game) weaved a path of destruction from which they were unable to recover. Ross Lyon’s astute use of pressure to contain the situation once they had asserted their grip on the game, and Melbourne’s self-destructive wastefulness, assured that outcome. The old adage about the insanity of repeatedly doing something and expecting a different result, was out there. Two years ago, the score line in Melbourne’s loss to the Giants at this same ground was 5 goals 15 behinds - a ratio of one goal per four scoring shots - was perfectly replicated with yesterday’s 7 goals 21 behinds. 
    This has been going on for a while and opens up a number of questions. I’ll put forward a few that come to mind from this performance. The obvious first question is whether the club can find a suitable coach to instruct players on proper kicking techniques or is this a skill that can no longer be developed at this stage of the development of our playing group? Another concern is the team's ability to counter an opponent's dominance during a run on as exemplified by the Saints in the first quarter. Did the Demons underestimate their opponents, considering St Kilda's goals during this period were scored by relatively unknown forwards? Furthermore, given the modest attendance of 6,721 at TIO Traeger Park and the team's poor past performances at this venue, is it prudent to prioritize financial gain over potentially sacrificing valuable premiership points by relinquishing home ground advantage, notwithstanding the cultural significance of the team's connection to the Red Centre?

  • POSTGAME: St. Kilda

    After kicking the first goal of the match the Demons were always playing catch up against the Saints in Alice Spring and could never make the most of their inside 50 entries to wrestle back the lead.
