I think you all need to back off a bit on Omac, ok he didn’t end up as we were all hoping, but a lot of you keyboard warriors who have probably never played a competitive game of football in your lives .

Pretty average 

Get over yourself, it’s a fan forum, what were you expecting? Oscar is a bog average footballer who likely wouldn’t even dominate club footy. How he stayed with us do long is a bit beyond me.

    Rapt with that.  I really want Oscar to find a new home.  He has more to offer.

    I think he will probably be a bargain wherever he goes. IMO the best out-of-contract player we have. Just isnt working for him at present. At 196cm and 24(?) yrs old, his best is in front of him, but still may be a year off. I expect him to be in the ones at Adelaide and pushing into top 25 if at Pies. He is friends with Darcy Moore already and they may work together well.

    For interest's sake, the current pick currency at Adelaide and Collingwood stands at:

    Adelaide: 1, 9, 22, 23, 33, 40, 50, 56, 66, 80 

    Collingwood: 16, 39, 42, 75, 92 

    Whereas we have: 26, 43, 68, 69, 89 

    I wonder what the FD can wrangle out of the above?

    My guess is they will take anything to find him a new home. I expect the pick will 80 at the crows or 92 at pies. Good luck O Mac.

    The Crows have lost Hartigan and might need to replace him.

    Yes, would give them some cover.

    Adelaide's Pick 56 would be  nice and after-all it is their 8th pick in the draft.

    Think @Rolling Stone's on the money of it's Collingwood.

    I'd suggest we offer Oscar and pick 43 for Adelaide's Pick 33

    I'd take either 66 (if Adelaide want him), or 75 (if Collingwood want him).

    Can't see this happening at all.  Is a lot in our favour.

    Sounds just like Demonland... kidding Andy!

    He will be a bargain pick up for whoever gets him. 
     

    New coach and structure and he will do wonders! I think at 24yo, Adelaide is a good fit for him for a long career... Can’t trust the Pies these days!

    Wait, you're not banned? Just be careful and don't call him out for his [censored]. He'll tell everyone not to abuse him and then abuse anyone he likes. Also, have you seen the spoof page? Best page if you're after a laugh.

    the spoof page is hilarious! i've been banned but i can still view posts, just not comment. the young man who runs it wasn't happy with my suggestion that Christian Petracca was a better player than jack Billings.

    Luke Molan says hi back, as does Lucas Cook. I know they weren’t top 5 picks but they were just as bad.

    How would you know? They both bever played.

    No news in the main channels about OMac.  Also ANB was named before the period and now all is quiet.  No interest, or just not interesting??

    One didn’t have the body to stand up to the rigours of AFL. The other, well he had just about 0 AFL qualities (especially the hunger/dedication) - even his own manager told him to expect being taken as a late 2nd/3rd round pick.

    They mentioned on AFL Exchange today that Neal-Bullen was looking around at options but there was no interest from other clubs

    Petty has a lot of potential and I hope we can more games into him but if we're targeting Brown and another wingman (previously Smith) the club is gunning for a premiership with with the list we've got.

    Tarrant could fill the void if May or Lever goes down, could Petty or Smith? Unlikely at this stage.

    Petty will very soon if he gets a good run at it.

    Crows would be a good fit. They need to replace Hartigan.  Oscar didn’t develop and clearly was not up to AFL Standard.  Embarrassed by rookies Georgiades and Mcinerney. We bid him farewell. 
     

    Oscar and MFC pick 43 for Crows pick 40.  

    OR 

    Oscar for Crows pick 66

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
