Damn I was hoping that Adelaide would match St Kilda for Crouch, solid pick up for them. 

GWS did well with Jesse, basically a free hit with him. If it doesn’t work out then nothing really lost on their end. As for Freo, another big trade bust for them! ?

EDIT also wanted to mention it’s absolutely incredible the clubs are going through the trade period without confirming what the list sizes will be. Amateur hour from the AFL.

You don't offer 3 year contracts to players you think are spuds. So the dogs obviously see what i see in him. 190cm small forward that can run and jump and has kicked a clutch goal in finals.

Be interesting how this trade plays out.  Bulldogs are getting a player that Adelaide should bid on for pick 1.  I cant remember the discount you get for nga bids.  It would be great to find a way to bundle up Hannan with some  picks and go after bulldogs first round pick

What do you think of the longer contracts we have previously offered to Harmes and TMac, Preuss and Tomlinson?

Ffs. Why are the Saints now the destination club? And how is their salary cap??? 
 

Big $$$ to get Carlisle. Big $$$ to get Hannebery. Big $$$ to get Hill.  Big $$$ to get Crouch. Billings must be in decent $$. Steele etc will hold out their hand for more $$$ 

and now can they afford extra $700k year for Treloar!!??!!!!?

Like Mahoney they said it is unlikely but are monitoring the situation, like I'm sure everyone is.

carlisle was on big money; currently doesn't have a contract

hill they frontloaded last year, crouch is going to them on less money than he was on at the crows, billings is ooc at the end of next season, and no guarantee to stay at the aints beyond that as they've moved past him

they also have a number of veterans on relatively low contracts - geary, ryder, ross - who are key to their best 22

i think they've managed their list build quite well, but i don't think they're necessarily in a better or worse position than us, really

The AFL trade period is so boring.

A player has to consent to to being traded which means nothing surprising ever happens and we know all the moves weeks in advance anyway.

 And still they run this trade radio crap.

they have drafted so poorly that they had very few A graders in the team so plenty of cash to spend on trade-ins

The 'grunt' type of midfielder that Essendon has needed for a couple of years now.

This is where we could get involved, assuming Essendon get pick 8 for Saad because the dogs won't want an early pick in this years draft. I'd ask about sending our 1st round (2021), pick 26 & 53 (2020) and Hannan to the Dogs and TMac to the bombers, the Dogs sending Dunkley to Ess while we get picks 8 and 14 this year. The Bombers don't have any 2nd round picks this year

Dees: Out 2021 1st, pick 26 & 53 (2020) Hannan & TMac In: pick 8 & 14 2020. 

Dogs: out Dunkley, pick 14 In: 2021 1st (from Dees) & pick 26 & 53 (2020) & Hannan

Ess: out pick 8 In: Dunkley & TMac

Ess: out pick 8 In: Dunkley & TMac

I would do that, especially to get TMac off the books. Could potentially trade into next years draft to, via the Pies, if we wanted.

Move on Dr and Dee3031 we are still living on his marvellous Geelong Semi sealing goal in 2018.

Mitch had all season to hit form and didn't succeed and I will Not forgive him fir the last pass to Fritsch in the last quarter at Metricon vs Lions instead of passing to Jack Viney 30 m out on his own OR having a shot himself.!!!

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.

    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
