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.

Rehabbing: Great to see Kentfield back (much slimmer), walking with Tholstrup, TMac (suspect just a management thing), Viney (still being cautious with that rib cartilage?), Melksham (

Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
