You need to be careful.  I'm fairly sure it was Olisik that was HUGE on Oliver right from the get go.  He copped a lot of criticism with people wanting Parish.

That said all I'm really saying is evaluate the idea, not who delivers it.

You know what they say about broken clocks…

Who here would do this

Jackson to Freo for Cerra and Pick 8

Pick 8 and 34 (plus change) to Richmond for picks 11 + 16

Pick 16 to Collingwood for Maynard

Gunston as free agent

 

 

In: Cerra, Maynard, Gunston, Pick 11 (Mac Andrew)

Out: L. Jackson, P34

If I was drunk or post - lobotomy then yes, absolutely

Would only entertain if we knew Jackson wants out otherwise sign him up for life.

Jackson is going to be thrown the kitchen sink (especially if he wins the rising star) from Eagles and Freo.

Love the kid and no doubt want him at the club but I have a feeling he will be going home in the future.

In my view Maynard does not add value for money.  Saying he is a replacement for Hibbo is misplaced, Hibbo isn't getting a game with both Hunt and Tomlinson out.  I'm a believer that Tomlinson can fit with May, Lever and Petty.

We clearly have a tight salary cap.  We have Jackson, Pickett, Rivers, Sparrow, Jordon, Petty, Spargo and Bowey who were in our 23 on Saturday and are 22 or under.  They will need TPP space and I don't think our oldies are on big coin.

Maynard is not a priority I don't think.

Certainly not at any sort of premium price anyway.

pat naish was a target of the pies last year so maybe they sign him up as a DFA this season, surprising that the tigers only announced the one list change, maybe they feel their other OOC players have trade value? but surely naish would've too

Posted (edited)

Wow lol haven’t been here all day and more posts about me then actual trades.

Would have thought more posters would have balls to post up interesting scenarios then prioritise sitting on sidelines posting pot shots like 15 year olds on Facebook.

That said I did hear that Freo have asked the question re Jackson, hence that scenario. 

Thanks Baghdad, on the money there mate with Oliver. Can also include Pickett to that list also who everyone screamed had go-home factor all over him.

A premiership and the lure of more will help.

There are interesting scenarios and ridiculous scenarios. Usually the ones that involve half a dozen players and ten pick swaps are ridiculous.

Should have another crack at Jamie Elliott, 29 years of age. Wouldn't cost a lot in terms of picks due to his age & durability concerns. Obviously risk involved, but imagine him & Kozzie running amuck?

Why would we want Elliott goes missing too often and is old we already have Spargo and then we have Bedford and Chandler waiting in the wings. It's a no from me.

He can replace ANB who is probably in our 20-22 player range

No what I'm saying given a chance they could perform.

I'd rather Neal-Bullen Elliott has no defensive ability at all.

I'm on the Maynard bandwagon but the rest don't really excite me.

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
