Almost read the article until I saw it was authored by a dirty gambling company. Neds (and their counterparts) can GAGF.

    I've been reading a few threads recently, and I've come to the conclusion that

     

    Hogan, Lever and May

    fit this bill...

    Hard to go past the MacLeod Groome trade. An absolute shocker

    Acquiring free agent Zaine Cordy after 3 days of trade week, as a club on a 56 year premiership drought while stuck in the mid-table with a pick that barely scrapes into the top 10 each year.

    2001, trading Jeff Farmer and Pick 41 for Clint Bizzle.

    I really liked Bizzle, but we lost that trade badly.

    Freo gave away Pick 1 and mid range picks to Hawthorn for Trent Croad and Luke McPharlin. Croad  went back to Hawthorn and played in a flag with Hodge and Mitchell, who the Hawks got with the Freo picks.

    You have to take what you can get when a player is leaving

    Darren Kowal wasn't a bad player..D.Wirra was better off course but every time Jack Darling takes a Mark or Kicks a goal i punch myself in the head. Thanks to MfC for Lucas's Cook. Can't think of one worse for us.

    my cousin tells a good story one day that when 'moo' kowal was running to the bench one day i yelled "and keep running!"

    suffice to say, he never played for the mfc again

    i have no recollection of saying this

    but it's the little things...

    Hahahaha. I Apologise the Cook and Darling situation wasn't a trade just that we chose Cook over Darling but still today it grinds my gears.

    Clint played some excellent games for us, not his fault at all.

    Hold on a minute, I'll get out the big book labelled 'Fremantle'.

     

    GC Suns of recent times (admittedly, most requested to be traded): Prestia, Dixon, O’Meara, Hall, Saad, Lynch, Lyons, Wright, May, Brodie, etc.

    And now Bowes and Rankine

    Gary Moorcroft trade to Melbourne was probably the worst ever.

    Was an absolute waste.

    • AFLW REPORT: St. Kilda

      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.

      It's Game Day or has everyone given up. Maybe it is because a prime time Friday game is so rare ... double checks today is Friday ... Come on DL'ers support the team one last time for the year!
