That’s an absolute steal. Acres will likely play round 1.  Had a very good year with Freo. Future 3rd!!!! Pick 50ish in 2023. Wtf. Carlton are the obvious winner. 

Looks like a pure money deal

Freo reportedly offered 180k per year.. Carlton offering $350k

    I think a statement needs to be made here and an example set.  Send him into the draft and he takes his chances.  No deal!!

    We would then get nothing in return.  SFA.  Zilch.

    The statement we'd be making is "We're so dumb we're prepared to cut off our nose to spite our face".

    Yes but he potentially doesn't get to Freo... that's the point.  Forces their hand.

    Not when you consider his contract is for about $350K

    Freo are getting fleeced!! Logue walks into the Kangas and they give up very little and it’s delayed until 2023.  

    F2nd and F3rd is all NM have.

    Bad outcome for us. Leaves us no closer to getting a top 10 pick for Jackson. Anything outside top 10 is a failure for us. Sucks for us Freo are a sh*t club!

    A [censored] club that has pick 13, what do you call the clubs with the top 10 picks?

    You're saying we should tell Freo that we will send him to the draft?   It would be an empty threat.

    As if they'd buy a scenario where neither of the the clubs nor the player get what they want.

    We'll cut a deal with Freo (or West Coast, I don't care) and get the best result we can.

    Absolute turnover merchant, who finds himself at his third club.

    TPP?

    They used AFL assistance picks.  Not ok?

    The bundling of 13 with North's F2nd  ( say approx 21 ) will go a long way to getting us the first pick we want.

    Then Freo's F1st plus the Lobb pick and or the Acres pick, will do the same for the second pick we want.

    Or just give us all of those picks, plus the North F3rd and we will do the deals.

    We could easily end up with 2 picks inside 10.

    Then ask them to throw in Treacy and they have LJ.

    So we would get initially 13, North F2nd and F3rd, Freo F1st, Lobb pick and Acres pick F50 something.

    See how easy it is.

    Yeah, I meant more that they still have to pay wages that take up total player payments, so they're not really free.

    AFL 3rd rd compo #52-53 for Hunt as a UFA 

    —————————

    * GWS likely to offer #43 (GWS 3rd rd) for Bedford .  

    BUT Dees should push for GWS 21 for Bedford and MFC pick 32.
    * Dees likely to then offer magpies the #21 for Grundy 

    —————————

    * FREO likely to offer acquired pick 8 (from Port to Kangas as part of JHF trade ; Kangas then use in deal to get Logue) PLUS  Freo 2023 future 1st rd for Jackson 

    ^^either use pick 8 to get McKenzie, Phillipou or Hollands OR offer GWS the package of pick 8 and Freo future 1st to get pick 3 (GWS) to get either Cadman or Tsatas.  

    I like your work. Pick 8 + Freo future 1st for GWS pick will depend on who GWS have their eye on. They are also in need of a KPF which makes me think they’ll potentially not trade to give us first dibs.

    I haven't listened to one word of trade radio.

    It's my own silly idea, that might not be that silly, as it can be easily done by the Dockers, if they want to finish this trade right now.

    Would you do that deal if you were Tim Lamb?  I would.

    Can future picks be used for their points value.

    Given the amount of players they are losing   Freo will have to keep some picks to fill spots on their list.

    The Dockers currently have every pick in my scenario except the Lobb pick.

    If they clear Lobb to the Dogs and give us that pick, with the others they already have, it would be an easy deal.

    They have apparently already offered us 13 and F1st and we have refused.

    In other words, they throw in North F2nd and North F3rd and maybe Acres F50 something and clear Lobb and give us the pick.

    If they were serious about Jacko and are worried about WCE, then do it now and it's done, all over, finished.

    They will get picks for retired and delisted players. I think you only need to add 3 players and they are trading in players too.

    • NON-MFC: Round 11

      Round 11, the second week of The Sir Doug Nicholls Round, kicks off on Thursday night with the Cats hosting the Bulldogs at Kardinia Park. Geelong will be looking to to continue their decade long dominance over the Bulldogs, while the Dogs aim to take another big scalp as they surge up the ladder. On Friday night it's he Dreamtime at the 'G clash between Essendon and Richmond. The Bombers will want to avoid another embarrassing performance against a lowly side whilst the Tigers will be keen to avenge a disappointing loss to the Kangaroos. Saturday footy kicks off as the Blues face the Giants in a pivotal clash for both clubs. Carlton need to turn around their up and down season while GWS will be eager to bounce back and reassert themselves as a September threat. At twilight sees the Hawks taking on the Lions at the G. Hawthorn need to cement themselves in the Top 4 but they’ll need to be at their best to challenge a Brisbane side eager to respond after last week’s crushing loss to the Dees on their home turf. The first of the Saturday night double headers opens with North Melbourne up against the high-flying Magpies. The Roos will need a near-perfect performance to trouble a Collingwood side sitting atop the ladder.

    • PREVIEW: Sydney

      The two teams competing at the MCG on Sunday afternoon have each traversed a long and arduous path since their previous encounter on a sweltering March evening in Sydney a season and a half ago. Both experienced periods of success at various times last year. The Demons ran out of steam in midseason while the Swans went on to narrowly miss the ultimate prize in the sport. Now, they find themselves outside of finals contention as the season approaches the halfway mark. The winner this week will remain in contact with the leading pack, while the loser may well find itself on a precipice, staring into the abyss. The current season has presented numerous challenges for most clubs, particularly those positioned in the middle tier. The Essendon experience in suffering a significant 91-point loss to the Bulldogs, just one week after defeating the Swans, may not be typical, but it illustrates the unpredictability of outcomes under the league’s present set up.

    • REPORT: Brisbane

      “Max Gawn has been the heart and soul of the Dees for years now, but this recent recovery from a terrible start has been driven by him. He was everywhere again, and with the game in the balance, he took several key marks to keep the ball in the Dees forward half.” - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasn’t the efforts of one man that caused this monumental upset, but rather the work of the coach and his assistants and the other 22 players who took the ground, notably the likes of Jake Melksham, Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Kozzie Pickett but Max has been magnificent in taking ownership of his team and its welfare under the fire of a calamitous 0-5 start to the season. On Sunday, he provided the leadership that was needed to face up to the reigning premier and top of the ladder Brisbane Lions on their home turf and to prevail after a slow start, during which the hosts led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter. Titus O’Reily is normally comedic in his descriptions of the football but this time, he was being deadly serious. The Demons have come from a long way back and, although they still sit in the bottom third of the AFL pack, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel as they look to drive home the momentum inspired in the past four or five weeks by Max the Magnificent who was under such great pressure in those dark, early days of the season.

    • CASEY: Southport

      The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

    • PREGAME: Sydney

      Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?
