Who's with me in the delusional 'Keep pick 6, but get May with other picks' club? We're still alive.

I was going to point out that you were delusional, but I see you already acknowledged it. ?

He doesn’t want to be at the Dees mate.

Thats the only reason all this is happening 

I know all that

but he is a contracted player, who can assist the Weid in becoming a better forward for a year. 

I just get the feeling the Weid is still a touch green. 

Just my feelings...

Michael Gleeson reports that the final and biggest piece of the interconnected mega trade is expected to be completed in the next hour.

The essence of the deal is:

  • Jesse Hogan and Melbourne's fourth round pick will move to Fremantle for picks six and 23.
  • Melbourne will trade pick six to the Suns for Steven May, Kade Kolodjashnij and a Suns fourth round pick.

Out: Hogan, Pick 6 and Future 4th round pick

In: May, KK, Pick 23 and Gold Coast future 4th round pick

Reported in the Age

WTF? why bother with a swap of future 4th round picks

Whether he goes or stays, I expect this will put a dampner on Vic clubs recruiting young blokes from WA.

Weid is VERY green, WYL. 

Very promising but only a 20 gamer still growing into his frame.

I think the real problem is paying too much and losing them for too little - that is the real question

I'd be staying away from any draftee from WA or Moggs creek

I don’t think so sue. Cripps is from WA and there’s never been any noise about a return there. Simon Black from WA had a long and fruitful career in Brisbane. The AFL is littered with interstate players who settle in. Furthermore I believe this has been as much driven by the MFC as it was Hogan driven.

Yes and Opposition Teams will target him hard now on the ground. A year of transition with Hogan would have been an interesting proposition

Dunno about paying too much, but I expect club's would always be losing them for too little.  Almost unavoidable.

I reckon this is one more pick perhaps 20 or a player away from being a good deal. 

If this is it.. I won't be overly happy.

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.

    Once again the club’s top goal scorer but he had a few uncharacteristic flat spots during the season and the club will be looking for much better from him in 2025.

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.

    The first round draft pick at #13 from twelve months ago the strongly built medium forward has had an impressive introduction to AFL football and is expected to spend more midfield moments as his career progresses.
