If Freo can't find the picks to do the deal do we target one of their players?

Realistically, who might that be? 

Let's leave Brayshaw, Serong and Young out of the mix because that's not going to happen

    The three or four good players they have are all contracted til around 2036

    The others are Mundy (retired) & Fyfe (cooked)

    Probably Meek or some dork like that

    If we keep Jackson, Grundy and Gawn we could trade Maxy for an electric powered Jag. (Current model) and still retain some zip out of centre bounces.

    Just checked and signed a deal till 2026 a couple months ago. If we target someone it would be someone like Henry or Meek or some other fringe player. I'd like Treacy but they've got no forwards so I can't see that happening. I honestly think Lobb would give us a better shot at a flag than Grundy too.

    I had a look at their players and feels like they’ve signed most of their core.
    Ever heard of this bloke? Me neither 

    I don’t care who you are that’s one of the more impressive highlight reals I’ve seen in a while

    21 year old and 199cm key forward..

    Just looked at his wafl stats, seems like he played in reserves for most of the year, and wasn't particularly impressive. Was going at 3 goals a game in the WAFL before being picked up midseason so could be something there though.

    It would be great if Hutchy could spout the nonsense again about walking LJ to the PSD. Will at least put WC in the headlines

    Freo currently have 13, F1st, North F2nd, North F3rd.

    If Lobb to Dogs, say 25.

    Maybe Treacy as steak knives and we have another young key forward.

    Deal done.

    Would give us say 13, our pick 18, 20 and 38 next year, in a strong draft and with picks to draft or trade.

    This year 13 and say 25 ( Lobb ) and say 35 for Bedford.

    We could bundle 13, 25 and 35 to get 2 slightly better picks and use them this year. You might get say 10 and 20.

    See how easy it is.

    We haven't got those really high picks, but we have got enough for this year and next.

    A motley collection of mid range picks for a generational pick 3.

    I know we will be screwed but please let's not sugar coat it

    Come on down Eagles !!!

    Are you saying Jacko for all of that?? I assume this is a joke.

    Melb In > 13, 25, F1st (Freo), F2nd (North), F3rd (North) and Treacy
    Freo In > Jackson

    There's no way Freo would do that.  I know the pick values can be misleading but that equates to Pick 1, Pick 8 and Treacy (when they have as many young key forward options as we do)

    Agree that deal is absurd.
    We must get in 13, their future 1st and north’s future 2nd. We could throw back a future 3rd (or future 2nd at a stretch)

    Well, you also can’t move all of your future picks either (in Freo’s case).

    They must maintain a presence either in the first round, or the other rounds, for next year. Stupid confusing rules, but they’re there.

    How about...

    Jackson and pick 44 to Freo for pick 13, Future 1st, and (North's) Future 2nd

    Picks 13 and 27 to Geelong for pick 7 - Geelong use 13 for Bruhn

    Grundy to Dees for Freo's (North's) future 2nd

    Dees trade 7 and our future 2nd to GWS for 15 and 19

    Dees end up with Grundy, 15, 19 and future 1st for Jackson, 27, 44 and a future 2nd

     

    No you already traded 27

    I still can’t see how Freo can give us an acceptable deal for LJ. This will drag right out into next week 

    Agree Sir They are struggling and have nothing to trade

    That is the biggest load of garbage, there is no way he is going to the PSD.  That reporter is being lies by the WA clubs or he is just making things up.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?
