I know he just extended but Pick 3 for Taranto? Grew up a Melbourne supporter. Is that just a pipe dream? Seriously their B&F and best in the GF. Time to think realistically. 3 Quote

Redleg 42,179 Posted October 9, 2019 Posted October 9, 2019 Looking like the Langdon deal might be more complicated than the Kelly one, which has already been completed. Quote

Ted Lasso 19,586 Posted October 9, 2019 Posted October 9, 2019 Really surprised we didn't have a look at Howard from the Power surely an upgrade on Oscar down back? 1 Quote
Older demon 2,828 Posted October 9, 2019 Posted October 9, 2019 Bonar is a strong bodied inside mid who has had 2 knee redo's. We have enough inside mids and dodgy knees for mine. 2 Quote

whatwhat say what 23,864 Posted October 9, 2019 Posted October 9, 2019 Howard only wants to play as a key back We don’t need another key back Quote
Sorry kids 635 Posted October 9, 2019 Posted October 9, 2019 9 hours ago, Lord Nev said: Only so much you can do when you're the 17th placed team who trains in a dog park, shares the showers with a few other teams and hasn't won a flag for 55 years I guess... All we can do I guess is aim for minimum 6 upgrades on last years list. So far PRO Tomlinson Cons Frost Quote
Dr.D 1,771 Posted October 9, 2019 Posted October 9, 2019 Why the f@#$ did we pick up tomlinson who is slow yet get rid of frost who is our quickest player. bloody stupid. We've bloody lost the plot. we're the slowest team in the comp before this idiotic move. Not looking forward to seeing tomlinson hobble down the wing whilst he is trying to catch jaiden Stephenson or something. ffs 2 Quote

Still plenty to play out there, Doc. 1 Quote
Redleg 42,179 Posted October 10, 2019 Posted October 10, 2019 These trade periods just drag on. Nothing really happens until the last couple of days. If not for the AFL wanting the publicity, we could do it in 3 days. Quote

Deecisive 1,709 Posted October 10, 2019 Posted October 10, 2019 Well i must say i am totally underwhelmed by Melbourne's recruiting so far. The saints, Carlton, Eagles, and cats are all doing great while we tend our knitting in the corner. So many free agents and what we could only come up with two we were interested in, Elliott and Tomlinson. Did we really have such a good year and have such a talented list that we did not think it worth our time trading $'s instead of draft picks to pick up some much needed talent. Quite frankly this does not make me feel as if we are making much progress. Quote

We have Lewis, Stretch, Frosty, Bull Smith and JKH off the list already. Imagine Hill on one wing and Langdon on the other. Edited October 10, 2019 by Rusty Nails 1 Quote
