Sweet mother of Christ. If you’re treating text messages from Freo mates as legitimate intel worth posting you’re contribution to this Board is even more negligible than I ever thought it could be.

Haha. He’s got a family member that works for Freo (so he says..). Even then they’d probably manage to stuff up the passing on of info.

    I know it's Bigfooty, but someone over on the Melbourne forums has posted that the Swans have requested a meeting with us. He/she claims it could be Papley related. Intriguing development if true.

    Interesting indeed, but realistically the only way we can get involved in a Papley discussion is if we split the pick, and will have to be terr than pick 9 as thats Carlton's first pick.

    Throws darts here and there hopes to get a bullseye. Yet to hit a target at all.

    And just to be realistic, all 18 clubs met with each other this morning when they all made there way to Marvel. Happens everywhere. Clubs will then do private follow up meetins afterwards.

    I've heard a rumour the Swans have some interest in Mitch Hannan, perhaps that's where this rumour comes from?

    Interesting. If true, I'd keep Mitch. Depends what we get back in return though I suppose.

    I wouldn't put too much stock in it mate, this time of year every these things are all over the place. just found it interesting that i heard that today and then read the post about a meeting requested by the Swans, seemed to line up.

    They wanted AVB last year as well. If they want Hannan, do it, add AVB, throw in a decent pick and get Papley.

    I'd see if McCartin wants to come home, if Papley isn't a chance.

    Papley definitely fills a need that we have, i just think the Swans are asking a bit much for him, and some of the money he's being offered by other teams apparently is pretty high as well.

    Who said we aren't a destination club. This was just sent to me by the AFL in their daily trade email.

    Anyone see anything strange about this ad on Trade Radio on the AFL site?

    The 2019 line-up includes the AFL's No.1 newsbreaker Damian Barrett, plus former superstars of the game Matthew Lloyd, Nick Dal Santo, Adam Cooney, Dwayne Russell, Kane Cornes and Terry Wallace. Sam McClure and Mitch Cleary round out the panel who will bring footy fans all the breaking news as trades are made.

    Yep, that’s the Hannan / Jones trade

    An ideal scenario for me at the moment would be to get Tomlinson (Done) and Langdon for Pick 22/Future Second, and then trade Pick 3 for 2 Picks inside the top 10 (If possible). I don't think we'll trade Pick 3 unless it is an decent offer. I don't think we'll accept 2 picks in the teens.

    doesn't have one to lose.

    Dwayne is also a two-eyed Geelong and Port supporter. So whatever helps his team. He's completely biased and smarmy little [censored].

    He also keeps insisting that Jenkins is a better option for clubs to recruit than going after guys like Daniher, Cameron, King

    Well, yeah, he's an idiot as well as being incredibly biased.

    Agree,  as he offers far more versatility and has more attributes.

    • 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.

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?
