A straight swap for Bedford and one of these two.

Yes, ridiculous, but I wanted to be the first goose to suggest it - an AFL 'journo' in the making.

Whitfield is what we need - clean sweeper, quick, beautiful kick.

 

My god.

Whitfield would be a dream in our side. 

Opposite wing to Langdon or give him a half-back Nick Daicos role.

Probably way out of our thinking/cap but if we landed him and Grundy this year plus hit the draft with a top 8 pick we'd be laughing. And I'd be laughing. All the way to the 2023 flag.

Whitfield was in the top 10 if not top 5 of the league 3 plus years ago. Not anymore.

Signed a 7 year deal at the end of 2019. Would be $800k plus pa.

Salary dumping is beginning to become the norm. $600k would be tempting


From what I've heard Haynes' contract is heavily back-ended.  He's a very good player, but I suspect that GWS won't salary dump otherwise would be well worth a look. 

Whitfield is an excellent player. Good disposal. Just what we need. If he is genuinely gettable I’d prefer him over Grundy. 

 

Whitfield, would be a great get and improve our transition with quick and penetrating ball movement.

Buyer just need to be aware on the contract size


As if we have the draft capital or the money for Whitfield. Keep dreaming.

Not a chance.  Simply we have not enough $.

What you got for us?

I didn't hear a peep about us being liked to Gunston!

Thanks Jimmy,

Disappointing Gunston decided to go to Brisbane.  Behind the scenes we went hard. Apparently, he had some family or something in Brisbane.  

Unfortunately, I have nothing at the moment.  I have not spoken to anyone from the club for a number of weeks.  However, in saying that I like the way the trade period is unfolding for us.  We seem to be working to a plan. Make no mistake we are working towards much more than just good draft picks from Jackson and getting Grundy.  Just not sure who it is we are targeting outside a contracted KPF.  As far as that player goes, I have no idea how things are going but there has been a small amount of speculation in the press in the last week.

 Cheers!

Sounds like a reference to Georgiades.

I'd take Whitfield over Hunter

To be honest I reckon he's going to be a superstar...we can only dream.

Would have him in a heartbeat if possible.

He can take a grab that's for sure, his set shot kicking is deplorable, might need Tracc's help in that department.

Haynes NUP no room for him in the backline but a huge yes thanks for Whitfield, the guy is quality and I'd take him in a heart beat. Pretty please. 

Whitfield would be outstanding but doubt we have the salary cap space for his estimated 800k-1mil salary after bringing in Grundy.

 

Whitfield is exactly what we need, Haynes is way too much and we don't need his type

Whitfield of 2020 is exactly what we need, but he suffered a serious internal injury in '21 that he stated at the time may take 18 months to recover from. This probably explains his drop in form this year and he may well be back to his brilliant best next year. 

However, he'd be on big $ and his contract still has 5 years to run! We'd want to be confident of his health before committing to yet another long term contract. He turns 29yo next season.

* Sorry Diamond_Jim, have just seen your similar post. Anyway,  caveat emptor.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
