    Did he tweet what the Lions will get back?

    According to Tom Browne on 7 news an hour ago Beams will officially request a trade to the Pies tomorrow. 

    Fagan was shocked to hear the news on Friday and 48 hours later a deal is done?

    Don't believe it...

    Beams gets 18 votes in the Brownlow this year, and potentially gets traded for pick 18.

    Neale gets 11 and Freo want 5. What am I missing here?

    Beams trade to facilitate Neale trade???

     

    ... to facilitate Hogan trade ???  I'm guessing_

    Beams will be 29 when the season starts. 

    Neale will be 25. 

    This trade makes sense.

    Most likely the Lions chatted to Beams to see if he was interested in going to Pies to try for success... he's 29Yrs_

    Lions clearly want Neale... and Neale's friend, who has already committed to go to Lions... to play with Neale.

     IF Fagan does not know of it...  then the club has kept him at arms length, to protect his integrity.

    From the AFL site,   How is it not Draft Tampering?

    PORT Adelaide has fired a warning shot at Gold Coast, declaring it would back itself to lure highly rated draftees Jack Lukosius or Izak Rankine back home if the Suns recruit either of them. 

    Port list manager Jason Cripps effectively cautioned the Suns against taking either of them when speaking to NAB AFL Trade Radio on Monday.

    I know we are all waiting for the JH, May, KK deals, but I wonder if there is someone we are looking at as a late trade.

    That only applies if the MFC did it!

    For all other clubs it’s business as usual.

    Gold Coast either have to back themselves in to keep whoever they draft or are resigned to losing them.    

    Cripps is being more than a little disengenuous to suggest that they should draft a Vic because there’s a bigger market to go home to. Players now inevitably get to go to a club of their choosing.

    He sounds like a playground bully, it also smacks a little of desperation over the fact that they might miss out on one of the SA kids.

    • 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.
