Sydney offered pick 46 for Grundy, I assume the Dees got up and walked out of the room laughing.

When I finished laughing at that offer, I realised they're no doubt running the same game with Collingwood for Adams and will attempt to get us to fight over their second-rounder. I'd back the Swans needing Grundy more than Adams.

Yup the 100% are trying to have their cake and eat it too with Grundy and Adams.

Agree they need Grundy more, feel sorry for JJ as Adams hurts his spot in the team a bit.  Maybe we should ensure there is nothing left to get that deal done!

Without mentioning sources etc, I have been told Shane McAdam and Fogarty has been suggested by the dees for a round 1 selection. No me tion of what pick was to be utilised or multiples

Can't see Crows trading Fogarty unless it's a straight swap for Petty.

Very insulting to Grundy. 

Maybe its just posturing for their fans.

This has been on the cards for weeks. Do we believe that just today they made an offer and it's 46?

Still holding out for 11, for Grundy and spices.

What makes you think we'll get 11 or anywhere near that Mr Leg?  Genuine question.

Didn't we grab him for 27 or so last year.

Yes we did, but that doesn't mean you get back what you paid.

Swans are desperate for Grundy as their number 1 ruckman, we got him as number 2.

Anyway, let's see how good we can be at holding out.

However, tbh, whilst we have been good at drafting, we often seem to over pay overs on our buys and get unders on our sales.

We’re not getting anything near 11 for Grundy, that was obvious even before Sydney offered pick 40-something.

Article in the Age confirms the offer was 46 + 54. Probably trying to soften us up for pick 33, but we're holding out for 25. Wonder if the future pick they'll get for Stephens from Roos will play a role in the Adams/Grundy Swans stand off.

They also say:

"Melbourne are closing in on securing a second top draft pick to potentially make a plunge for one of the most sought after players at the top of the draft.

Melbourne have tempted Gold Coast with pick 14 and second round draft picks in exchange for pick 11. Two industry sources said Melbourne were eager to get pick 11 to bracket with their existing first pick now at six (tied to Fremantle’s finish) to make a play for one of top few draft picks."

Would you trade 6 and 11 for pick 1

You mean, like, the Jackson trade (pick 15, 6 and 25)? Or a measly 2nd rounder for Langdon. BBB cost us little, too

Cheer up Red!

I'd have a throw at the stumps, but the momentum seems to have switched to WC taking Reid (unless North cough up picks 2 & 3 - I wouldn't pay that and wouldn't think Roos would either).

If WC hold on to 1, we could see if North want to split pick 2 or 3.  Who knows, if that happens maybe North then split pick 6 with Eagles (who would get Curtin) and get WC's future first and our 11 in that scenario, which could have some appeal. North have so many chips we might be able to get something else back in any potential split.

Melbourne would do that in a heartbeat. West Coast would hang the phone up. We’d need to throw in a future 1st on top of that at a minimum

 

I know it doesn't work this way given the potential & hype surrounding Reid but it's a like for like points swap....

1 >  3000

6 & 11 > 3080

What did GWS trade for pick 1 last year?

Sifting out what GWS gave up to get pick 1, they sent picks 3, 12 & a future 2nd into the mega trade.

Kangas gave up JHF & pick 1 & a future 3rd & received 2 (from WC) & 3, Ports 1st this year plus a few 3rd rounders.

I’m fairly certain Fogarty is bigger than Fritsch and a much more aggressive player.  Fogarty and JVR would hurt some defenders with the way they attack the ball.

3cm and 15kg

I'm certain we'd add our future 1st into a trade proposal, but agree that WC would still likely decline.

The first round picks for a kid?

Pick 33 for a 2x AA ruckman

It's getting ridiculous now.

    CONSISTENCY by The Oracle

    "I think we have got a team that can win a premiership, and if we get in this year, I don't think there is a team that is going to want to play us. This year is not a write-off, I don't concede that. Not at all." — Collingwood President Jeff Browne. I love this sort of optimism from the Magpie President after his club’s eleven goal defeat at the hands of the fast rising Hawks. It’s consistent with the fighting spirit of the club that won last year’s flag.  I only wish I could say the s

    FEARS by Whispering Jack

    Melbourne’s worst fears about the absence of Max Gawn were realised when it received a shellacking from Fremantle’s ruckmen Sean Darcy and Luke Jackson who dominated the hit out tally in their game at Optus Stadium on Sunday by a massive 47 to 19. As a result, the 50-point deficit at the end of the game proved to be a loss that was long foreseen that was two years in the making and demonstrated a complete lack of hindsight and planning from the club. To add insult to injury, Jackson was a D

    RAIN CHECK by Whispering Jack

    The Frankston Dolphins broke a run of six straight losses against their neighbours, the Casey Demons and kept their hopes for a long-awaited return to the VFL finals alive with a 27 point victory over at Kinetic Stadium. Casey was welcomed to the Peninsula by grey skies, heavy rain and angry seas with threatening white-capped waves whipped up by gale force winds. After a slow start in the opening term when they failed to take advantage of the breeze, it appeared that the Demons had decided
