    Well that proposal is a dilly of a pickle

    Thinking with my head, I probably would I think, based on superior foot skills and ability to score more often.  But not by much. 

    But I love Gussy so, thinking like the one-eyed MFC fan, I would keep Gussy coz I love him and reckon he'd come good

    Nah, Gus is a very classy act at the rear end of the opportunity stick - I'd put him forward flanking/utility unzoned as he is a great shot at goal and does require some moving space to see ball, get ball, split the big sticks. I really mean it - one of our best when properly used, moving forward and deep as possible.

    Would do this without a second thought.

    Brayshaw is a good enough player, but he doesn't have anything we don't already have. Billings is a bit more zippy and can kick well, consistently.

    I wouldn't do Brayshaw for Billings. The former is a much better player. Sure, Billings had a better 2020, but it would take more than Billings to make me trade Gus.

    Billings would be the perfect outside tonic that we are desperate for. Like @Pulp Fritschon said though, can't see the saints parting away with Billings. They'd want a first round pick.

    Richards is an interesting one. Played half back in his under 18s year and was pretty impressive but the doggies have played him as a half forward flank.

    I’d rather Billing’s than pick#9 in the draft (or whatever it would end up being - if we can even get it).

    Our time is now and the next few years, Billing’s will have much more of an instant impact. I’d even consider trading Bradshaw for him, as Jack is way more versatile, better kick and quicker too.

    Tigs have told Jack Higgins he's on the trade table. definitely someone we should absolutely be looking at. 

    would add some chase and tackle pressure to our forward line that we currently lack, crafty around goals and provides a bit of X-Factor. 

    Nathan Broad is another who i rate, he's not getting the interest he thought he might, but in terms of improving your bottom 6, that's a guy with the capacity to be a very good role player. 

    I believe Broad is also a F/A so wouldn't cost anything.

    At the feet of Ben Brown who's either going to mark it, draw a free or bring it to ground.

    I'd go for both of them. The problem with Higgins is coming up with the pick to land him.

    One of my first thoughts when I heard Brown was a possibility was that we could do with another small cheeky forward. Higgins will do nicely.

    I can't remember what the rules are around trading futures. If we wanted to trade our future first, could we also trade our future second?

    No if we trade future 1st we can't trade any other future picks and vice versa.

    In answer to your post then @adonski, I wouldn't trade a future for Higgins. I want Macrae.

    Bugger. Should be able to package up some later picks for a second rounder with all the players we’re moving on though you would’ve thought

    You can trade the future 2nd in addition if you can get one back from somewhere else, e.g. last year we traded future 1st and 2nd to North but got a 2nd back from Hawthorn for Frost.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

    • CASEY: Williamstown

      The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

      The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
