So apparently we knocked back the offer of pick 6 and GWS 2020 1st rounder.

according to whom? we don't leak, so unless mahoney explicitly stated it it's mere conjecture from people looking to fill content and airtime

According to Sam Mclure.... I know he isn't the most reliable.

I assume the Giants may have mentioned it, who knows.

Then why would we use 6 against them, which is what he suggested?

Maybe I'm missing something, but I can't see anywhere that he suggested doing that?

Looks like Bonar will be getting traded today. What if they throw that pick in as well? Not sure what else GWS have to offer, in terms of picks.

Yep, if North give one of their second rounders 26 or 27 for Bonar, then it could be:

Pick 3 for 6, Pick 27 2019, GWS future first round pick

That would be a robbery. GWS wouldnt even consider it. They need the pick they get back for Bonar to use points to land Green. I’m of the mind that GWS 1st round next year will be worth diddly-squat in next years draft. We should be looking at wrenching out pick 6 and a player for 3

I think the Bombers have picks 30 and 33 from this year too. I think they are the favourites atm

Oh I totally agree, thing is we can play hard ball, we're not here to do GWS any favours.

If we want Green we'll bid for him. If GWS want that out of the equation, pay up!

I agree.

They already have a midfield that consists of Taranto, Ward, Coniglio, Kelly,  Hopper, Whitfield, Williams & Toby Greene.

They've also got Caldwell, Hateley & O'Halloran also tryin to get into the side and they would also be adding pick 3 plus Green this year.

Caldwell is the one I want.

6 & Caldwell for 3. Take it or leave it.

If we have knocked back that offer from the Giants, then I think that's a sensible move from the club.  It's not a great offer really and we have time on our side - we either get a better deal or take two ripping picks to the draft.  That's a win/win in my book.

No too risky.  And we don't need another insideish mid.  Unkown quantity at senior level also.  Pass.

If we are chasing a player from them it needs to happen in the next few hours.

Not sure what else we are chasing from them. Even their second rd 2020 is worth next to bugger all.

Of course, but we may not be.  We may have already seen what they have to offer and decided it's better for us to just take those first two picks to the draft.

If we're looking at a player, I'd say it'll come from the list of those younger guys coming out of contract at the end of next year, with Whitfield, Williams and Cameron taking big $ next year they might might have to offload someone like - Caldwell, Hately, O'Halloran, Perryman, Zac Langdon or Cumming, as they won't be able to keep them anyway. From that list the last 3 are all on more than rookie contracts so they'd be the most likely to move now to free up some cap, moving any of this years draftees won't help at all this year because there already on minimum payments. It's why they are trying to move on Bonar, he's contracted beyond his rookie contract but stuck behind a few.

    REDLEG PRIDE by Meggs

    Hump day mid-week footy at the Redlegs home ground is a great opportunity to build on our recent improved competitiveness playing in the red and blue.   The jumper has a few other colours this week with the rainbow Pride flag flying this round to celebrate people from all walks of life coming together, being accepted. AFLW has been a benchmark when it comes to inclusivity and a safe workplace.  The team will run out in a specially designed guernsey for this game and also the following week

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm
