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.

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

I hope so?

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.

FYI all, the official thread count including deleted posts is already at 400. The milestone is already reached. 

Negotiations resume but an argument has broken out over biscuits

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.

Rumour is we get Cerra !

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.

  • POSTGAME: Essendon

    Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

  • GAMEDAY: Essendon

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
