Oh man, that's gross. I get we probably won't use 27 and 35, but both of them for a 3 pick upgrade? Yuck

You’d have to think it’s part of a larger plan involving pick 11? Definitely overs from a points perspective to jump only three places…

I hope there is more picks involved in this trade

You'd hope so, given Adelaide paid only 23 and 26 for our previously held 14 and Chris Burgess...

YOU ARE FORGETTING THE 4 COROLLA POINTS ARE MORE THAN THE FERRARI POINTS

I'm just not up to scratch with the whole Elon stuff.

No offence taken from my end?

Isn't it funny that I mentioned taking on the Haynes contract with the bonus pick (as a possibility of covering Petty if the trade actually eventuated) and then a few posts later Mach comes through with something he may have heard. 

Did you read my post? 

Is there anyone aware that I may not have alllll of the machinations given I'm not in list management?! But that possibilities would be there that we can't see. So why even comment?!? 

Man. 

This place is crazy, honestly. We were so close to making a Grand Final. Without Petty. What's going on here?! 

With petty our chances of making the grand final would have gone right up. In hindsight it may have been the difference. Considering we lost two finals by less than two goals and Collingwood won three finals by about 2 goals it was a season of very fine margins. God, imagine if we had melksham and Gus. We could have romped it in.

Does the question mark indicate you are not sure if offence was taken at your end?

I endorse this 

If there’s a player besides Reid we really want and we know he most likely won’t be there with the picks we have now I say go for it.

Will 6, 11 and a future first get the Reid deal through? Hope so would love him on our side.

After GC x 3 academy picks 6 might become 7 and 11 might become 13 or 14. not sure 7 + 14 + Dees 24 1st swing its.

There must be a cunning plan though. Await further developments.

Does that mean aim to use up all out picks this year (except one for Pup Brown) and a first from 2024 on Harley Reid?

Oh, and McAdam and Fullerton, I guess

That's some belief the club must have in him

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.
