Hearing possible Hannan and pick 23 for pick 14 in return and some later pick swaps or future pick swaps

If that’s true then it’s us bending someone else over for once!

Haven't heard this one specifically, but this is definitely in line with what people are saying we'll try to do.

Connected with the expected bidding on Jamarra Ugle-Hagan?

Using the AFL Draft Points Index as guide:

  • Pick 14 = 1,161 Points
  • Pick 25 = 756 Points
  • 405 points differential equates to ~ pick 41

That doesn't seem unreasonable for a player the Dogs have targeted.

Trading out.
Trump. 

Trading in. 
Biden - 4 year contract.  Risky contract length given age and declining performance.  Have young Harris in the squad and may be required to step up in 2 years. 

Young Harris could be required to step up a lot earlier than 2 years. 
Sleepy Joe will get torn to shreds

Hannan’s not worth that and the pick scale always undersells the value of first round picks. We’ll have to add more to get that deal done

The Dogs are the party trying to get the deal done.

Personally I would have thought we'd have it high up the list, but going by Mahoney's comments yesterday it doesn't seem like the club feels the same way. Bit baffled by that tbh. Phillips might be a chance, but that's me guessing, not rumour etc. Pies have a bit going on obviously, and I still think they may consider TMac but are holding off for now with a few better options still potentially in play for them.

Clubs still don’t know List sizes yet!!

It is ridiculous 

Wake up Dill...Work to be done

It should have been set in stone before Trade Period started. 
We have no reference point. I hope Bartlett and others are furious 

How can any trading be done without a template??

Hypothetical: Clubs may have more of an idea of what's happening than what has been reported in the media. Mahoney, for all his faults, is quite often ahead of the curve with trading/drafting changes. What if we're finding a way to get ourselves 2 higher picks because the AFL will reduce the 3 draftees minimum rule?

But that is not the point. A multi million $$ operation shouldn’t have to deal in those circumstances. It is a necessity for all clubs to know how many players can be employed, before trading and dealing for those players. 
that said I think Josh is a pretty good Poker Player

I know mate. I wasn't arguing your point, I was bringing up something else.

I know and if Josh is able to haggle up the order good on him

I am just tired of the AFL picking and choosing what they do

They can change a rule within hours, but we still don’t know list numbers!!

TBF it could be that the AFLPA are making it difficult for them. They're in negotiations with them.

Quite possibly, but Trade weeks should have been delayed until a decision was made

i bet everything is being held up because List Managers are nervous. The AFL haven’t even made a statement. 
Are they all still tanning up in Noosa??

14 and Pruess for 10

Frost + Pruess + Hannan = 10

No way we will move up to pick 14 using Mitch Hannan!   The Bulldogs fans would burn that place down

I don’t think their fans will, Bulldogs will have to use pick 14 and another pick or 2 to match a bid on Ugle-Hagan anyway.
 

Edit: Possible point scenarios are being talked about on the Hannan trade thread. ?

That would mean we'd actually achieved the kind of 'bistro-math' / 'multiple mid-tier players packaged and converted into a top 10 pick' that many Demonland posters have often dreamed of.

A triple win for them, Ugle-Hagan, Hannan, and the Insurance payout.

Dunkley has just formally requested a trade which if the dog do a trade with ess they will get another 1 maybe 2 first round picks which would mean I think they would be even more happy to except the above trade.

  • Thank You Simon Goodwin

    As Demon fans, we’ve ridden a rollercoaster of emotions over the decades; the heartbreaks, the near misses, the wooden spoons, and the endless waiting. But through it all, we clung to hope. And then came Simon Goodwin. Before he ever wore red and blue, he was a champion in his own right. A five-time All-Australian, two-time Best and Fairest, and two-time premiership hero and Captain with Adelaide, Simon Goodwin was always destined to lead. When he transitioned from the field to the coach's box, first as an assistant at Essendon, he began shaping a new legacy.

  • PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

    Long ago and far away, the Melbourne Football Club replaced its coach in difficult circumstances after the team suffered a devastating loss. In the aftermath, I penned the following words: “Then came the politics, the intrigue, the axing, the sound of the football world laughing at a club, the circling of the media vultures, the reinvention of history, the anger, the irony, the pathos, the hurt on the face of the president, the dignified departure of the coach, and the determination of the newly appointed caretaker.” Today, we’re back in the same place although one difference here is that the coach who was terminated this time is Simon Goodwin, the man who four years ago

  • REPORT: West Coast

    The Charles Dickens novel, A Tale of Two Cities, opens with, “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, …”  This phrase highlights many of the significant challenges that humanity encounters in life, ranging from experiencing remarkable highs to living in times of despair. This is a concept that should resonate with all supporters of the Melbourne Football Club this morning as they reflect on its comprehensive 83-point victory over the struggling West Coast Eagles at Marvel Stadium. The outcome proved beyond doubt that they are the worst of clubs and that we are the best of the worst.

    With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?

    The Demons return to town fresh off a thumping win over the back-to-back wooden spooners, the West Coast Eagles, played in front of a sparse crowd at Marvel Stadium, the same venue that hosted last week's heartbreaking loss.
