Phillips? 

I think so. But I am hearing that it might just be a strange one from left field.

Personally I have trouble thinking it might happen but I will put it out there for reaction.

TMac paying 150K pa plus pick 18 for Phillips.

Would we trade 18 or 19 for Pies 2021 first rounder?

Considering Nick Daicos anticipated to go Top 5 next season

Doesn't make sense to me - Collingwood push out Treloar and Phillips due to salary cap issues and take in TMac (and pick 18) and pay 500-600k for him the next 2 years?

For us, it clears our salary cap... but that's only needed if we're bringing someone in.  Not sure if Phillips is a big enough fish to justify it?  

Having said that, I think we need a winger badly - don't have faith that Baker is the answer so maybe this is the price?

Would have to be that and a bit more. Reckon they will drop big time next year

not a chance. why would we trade our future first for those 2 picks, to only send them back to the pies for their future 1st round.

Yeah, I don't like it. Phillips has been out if their team, he's not worth a first and a player, even if one is a salary dump

Because we keep one of them and I anticipate Pies will slide next season that's why.

Gets us back into next years forst round and I'm backing us to finish above the Pies in 2021

Change that to Treloar and I'd be happier. 18 I think is too much for Phillips giving they're trying to get rid of him. Guess Tmac balances that out to a degree.

Maybe, but I'd be disappointed if that's what it ended up being.

GWS have shown clubs they can match RFAs. Unless next year is for a UFA, we'll be in trouble

We're basically helping out Collingwood with their NGA whilst betting ourselves against a team that still finished top 6 this year. Doesnt seem like a very high reward. Pies wouldnt agree either.

Phillips has been ruled out by Mahoney..

It looks like we aren't landing a back up ruckman with 30 minutes to go in the trade period. We'll most likely pick up a delisted free agent. Could Sam (sauce) Jacobs be a chance with us next year? He was interviewed last week and mentioned he still has a year or two left in the tank.  


Would love Treloar. Just sayin'...

Mahoney said they won't go for a backup ruck with Tmac staying on the list.

 

Think trade for a player must be a chance as why did they do the deal with the lions otherwise?

A mate with no contacts so just his idea that Jackson hasn't signed to extend his contract while Kossie & Rivers have so he thinks he's probably out the door end of next season in which case we'll get a first rounder or two for him. Plus rumours about Oliver wanting out won't go away so maybe 2 first rounders for him as well next year.

  • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

  • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

    The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Collingwood

    Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
