The 2019 Draft and Trade Targets Thread

Target Ed Langdon now. Watched his game again on the weekend.  Skilled.  Great kick. Pace and run.  Likes a contest.  Happily trade our future 2020 first round pick to get him.

    We need our picks. We're not in the premiership window anymore. 

    I want a reason to come to the footy.  Oscar Baker, Sparrow, Spargo, Bedford, Weideman, Jordon, Petty etc. don't really excite me. It's time  Jason Taylor picks up someone with a bit of flair. And no more forward pockets that aren't the full package. Bedford, fast no skills. Spargo, good skills, but slow. A jamie elliott type or no-one please.

    *Just my personal opinion.

    Delist:
    Bedford, Stretch, Baker, Maynard, O.Mcd, J.Wagner.

    That's 6 players. Realistically we will keep Omcd because the coaches love him for some reason so thats 5 delistings.

    Use them all at the draft on quick types.  Nail the first pick and cross our fingers that one of the later picks work out.

    Freo, remember them last trade season? Early 2nd round pick to them; which is not meant to be a knock on Ed Langon.

    • bedford is on a standard two year deal so that won't happen
    • i'd hope that stretch is a more of a trade opportunity for a third / fourth rounder with additional swap rather than delist
    • baker is a likely delist
    • maynard the same
    • o mac - don't be ridiculous, might be a trade option, but even that is unlikely
    • j wagner a likely delist

    you could easily add:

    • nathan jones a possible retirement
    • jordan lewis a likely retirement
    • jkh a likely delist
    • jeff garlett a likely retirement
    • tim smith a likely delist
    • declan kielty a likely delist
    • guy walker a likely delist

    then i'd personally be listening to offers for:

    • jayden hunt - second / third rounder or a player swap?
    • alex neal-bullen - third rounder or a player swap?

    Priority should be Stephen Wells. Seems to make the draft picks stick for Geelong.

    Reckon it’s nature not nurture, then?

    Wells’ record is good but without the development of players that Geelong seem to be able to do they might not be as good as they are

    Nuts. Oscar Baker will be in our 22 within 9 weeks. I really don’t get some of the reactionary thoughts on here.

    Some people already want Jordon and Bedford delisted.....  they're teenage rookies who have played 4 or 5 games in the VFL.

    Crazy times around here I tell ya.

    Ed Langdon in no rush to re-sign at Fremantle Dockers

    Fremantle midfielder Ed Langdon says he will not start contract negotiations with the Dockers until the second half of the year.

    Langdon, who along with fellow young Victorian midfielder Darcy Tucker shapes as one of the Dockers’ key re-signings, said he was happy at the WA club but would wait to deal with the contract issue.

    Because he can't get a kick mate. There is a chasm between VFL and AFL. If he can't get near it at the lower level, do you blame some for being less than enthusiastic about his prospects ?

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day on Friday night. ANZAC Eve. The big stage at the ‘G. The Demons return to the spotlight for one of our most significant nights on the football calendar, taking on the Tigers in a clash that always carries extra weight given the gravity of occasion of the commemoration of the ANZAC Spirit. Under the lights, in front of a packed house, this is where moments are made. Can the Dees rise to the occasion and deliver on the big stage, or will Richmond spoil the night? All the build-up, discussion, and in-game reactions here. Go Dees.

      Round 7 is here, with the ANZAC commemoration games taking centre stage. Who are you tipping this week, and which results would be most favourable for the Demons?

    • PREVIEW: Richmond

      Who would have imagined, when the season kicked off early last month, that Melbourne would emerge from the opening six weeks with wins over both Queensland powerhouses? At the time, Gold Coast and Brisbane were the competition’s early pace-setters, the flavours of the month, and the prospect of the Demons toppling both within the course of a fortnight seemed remote. Yet here they are, banking those scalps alongside home victories over two traditional Victorian rivals and building a quietly impressive resume.

      The Dees hit the big Friday night stage for the first and only time this season when they take on the Tigers under lights on ANZAC Eve at the G. Who comes in and who goes out?

      Before Sunday, the last time the Brisbane Lions had walked onto the turf of the Melbourne Cricket Ground, they celebrated the pinnacle of the sport - an AFL premiership secured in emphatic fashion for the second consecutive year.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      From the outset, the Casey Demons lacked any spring in their steps. They were out-hustled and out-bustled and finally outplayed by the Brisbane Lions by 38 points on their home turf in perfect conditions at Casey Fields.
