Traded out 43 for a third next year

Guess we don’t want anyone other than woewodin, otherwise it doesn’t make much sense, to get better than 43 next year crows going to need to be bottom 4 again

    The whole 'can't trade multiple future picks' is to stop a team trading their future away. Not sure how the AFL thought that was an issue with us

    Has anyone matched a bid for Woewodin then? Or don't we know yet?

    Not yet mate. Will likely use our last pick on him. (Or will we??!?!)

    Wasn’t for that.

    it was for swapping picks we’ve already swapped with the crows. Attempt to stop academy bidding nonsense

    JT might have to do a Sos/Dodoro and get one of his colleagues to bid for Woey just before our pick so we get the match factor going for him. Otherwise we’ll grab him

    Do we know what the trade was? Were we using pick 39 along with another pick to move up to 35? 

    Or were we just trying to get 35 to go with 39?

    No idea, but my guess is 

    36 and the Crows future 3rd 

    For 39 and 43

    Then we ended up just doing the second half of that.
     

    We swapped 36 and 39 with the Crows during trade week so that was banned. 

    We only planned 3 picks so unless we loved Soligo or the guys who went 37, 38 I can’t imagine we would’ve taken 2 picks there

    Something to do with the Filth?

    We could have taken Williams with the pick we traded, giving us a Hawkins type who can ruck a bit as well as key forward.

    Andy M-W looking likely rookie and If no one picks Taj he could then be another. Are we looking at a ruck forward type in maybe Caminitti, or however you spell his name?

    Interesting to see the plan.

    Looks like Rooey, Howey and Woey.  Goody should be happy.  

    Bowey to Howey to Woey to Rooey. Goal!

    If  you ask me, Demonstone, I reckon we just ran away with the chockie biscuits from these two draft rounds. JvR and BH were quite literally what we needed for our list - and were two young blokes so very close to the best available across both rounds.

    DeeSpencer pointed out it's because we were trying to trade 36 and 39, which we'd traded with Adelaide in the trade period. Can't retrade the same picks to the same team

    ...but, it was Gorney who cleared from the centre, as well.

    Montagna really is a shill for Geelong, Hawthorn, Essendon and St Kilda.

    Traded 51 for St Kildas 2022 round 4 pick.

    Clearly happy to just match the bid for Woey

    51 traded out for a R4 2022, no Taj?

    We need to take 3 players so we will get him at some point

    Taj will be with pick 150 or whatever we have left, or rookie list?

    Why would we do that? Best case is saints finish last and that pick would only give us 55 without any fs or nga bids. Doesn’t make sense

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
