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.

    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.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
