Frost deal getting close and could be done tomorrow.

Most likely we want 30, as does GWS, for Patton.

That is probably the hold up.

Hawks are also interested in Bonar from GWS so that could be holding things up.

Could we be angling for pick 10 here somehow? 22 + Frost for 10?

 

12 pick downgrade for a KPP for them. Especially if they are paying him 500k+
 

They get book-end KPPs and go to the draft with 22.

Gee, first O'Rourke and now Bonar? Clarko's losing his marbles. Just as well he's going to land Frosty.

What would the Hawks give us?

Hawks have Pick 11,30,50,87.

Pick 30 is about right I think , 50 is Unders of the back of his 2019.

This is where Mahoney and co need to be smarter when discussing our own players during trade week. Talk them up even if you don't rate them helps drive up the price. We suck at this

How would that work?

Mahoney - "Frost is a required player"

Wright - "but he told us you didn't offer him a contract and told him to explore his options?"

Bonar and Patton for 11 (and change)

6 and 11 to Dees for 3 (and 2020 2nd rounder)

This is the terrible level of comedy I'd expect out of an SNL writer, there could be a future in it for you


Mahoney might threaten to go to all the other suitors for Frost.

Oh, that’s right, how many other suitors are there? We’ll get what we can, we don’t have any cards.

Strange isn’t it, with so many here thinking Frost is such a good player his services aren’t more in demand.

Mahoney shouldn’t bluff. Get the deal done and move on.  We need the list space and we have no cards.

6 11 and Gunston 

?

 

Maybe 6,11 and Mitchell. It is Mahoney so most likely we l end up taking unders for Frost.

Yes, Mahoney is practically Hitler when it comes to trading. Wish we hadn't landed Oliver, Lever or May. Shocking.

I hate Hawthorn.  They laugh at us and we carry zero respect.  If in this mad universe that we trade away Frost, we need to get value. Pick 30 or fu&&(off.

If we get a second round pick for a depth player, we'll be laughing.

Why are Hawthorn trading for frost?

but you wouldn't say that if you compared omac to frost at the same age as omac

just saying

We are talking about the present. Frost has more upside than OMac. If we wanted to trade Omac, we would have to throw in an extra player to get the deal done.

So Frost then?  

I’m starting to believe Damien Barrett really rates Frost. His sliding doors in the last 5 weeks.

Sep 13

If 

there were a heap of problems in 2019 ...

then 

I didn't see Sam Frost as one. Need to keep him.

Sep 20

If 

I've said it previously ...

then 

I'll back over it here. Sam Frost is a player worth keeping.

Oct 4

If 

you've had a season that was only one step above hell ...

then 

I have zero idea how you've allowed one player who actually tries every single week, and who hurts with every single loss, to walk. Yes, Frosty has his flaws. But there's no way I'd be allowing him to leave.

Today 

If 

Ed Langdon and Tomlinson are the ins ...

then 

that at least balances the loss of Frost.

 

Pick 30 will do it. Hawks might want to give up less but seems they’re pretty keen.

He certainly has a little crush on Frost.

  • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

    Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front. They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

  • REPORT: West Coast

    On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

  • POSTGAME: West Coast

    Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
