Wow, surprised how much supporters overrate Harmes. He’s barely had 1 good season.
2018 he looked good in the back half of the season but beyond that he has been very average.

Agreed, its the first round compensation for Gresham that I'm questioning. He belongs in the 3rd round with Harmes. Maybe, just maybe we accepted unders for Harmes. 

 

 

Yep not saying Harmes is much chop, just saying Gresham isn't much better and they got a first-rounder for him. 

Compensation herbs and spices is a joke.

End of First. Which is 2nd really, which I think is fair.

Over time I’ve rated Gresham’s excellent agility. It hasn’t always translated to success but he’s been in poor systems.

Jeez. A future 3rd round pick for Harmes is cheap. I know he was depth but still........

Think you are over rating Harmes as a player.

Edited by demon3165

See above. Not saying he was by any means a world beater, just that the difference in quality of he and Gresham is not an end of first round versus a future third rounder. 

Anyway. It's done now so let's see what Lamby etc. can achieve.

I'm certainly in the camp of getting 2-3 good young players rather than trying to land pick 1.

Sound thinking. As the old adage suggests “Don’t put all your eggs in one basket!” Then again ‘you can’t make an omelette without cracking eggs.’

Club did everything they possibly could to try and get Tom Lynch this trade period and Richmond wouldn’t bite.

Some might be overrating Harmes, but some are equally overrating Gresham, as is the compo pick for him. Gresham has not put together a consistent season as an AFL footballer.

 

It's funny, we are supposedly the easy club to deal with and have a good reputation in trades.

We clear an AA and dual B & F Ruckman and a Premiership mid quickly and cheaply and yet offer good picks on fringe players and are still trying to get the deals done, after a week of the trade period.

And Hawkins?

Would have been interesting conversations between the Melbourne recruiting team and the Richmond team.

Yze/Tiges would have been mad to let this happen

Delusional.

We all know this will get done late for the pick offered.

I’m surprised we didnt offer the F3 we got for Harmes. They can go and get stuffed. F2 is too high IMO.

They are upset because they want Petty and possibly because we beat them to 11.

They will drag it out, Dodoro and now Mackie style.

Wow. Surely, Adelaide are burning their reputation within the industry with this sort of nonsense.

Something in the water in Adelaide......

we should seriously just block their calls now and move on.

Wouldn’t think McAdam’s Manager would be happy. In the memory bank, if another player is deciding between Crows and another club.

Yep, totally.

 

Adelaide are deluded. He’s OOC and can easily walk to us in the main draft or PSD. Other clubs aren’t going to waste their time on a 28 year old role player who doesn’t want to play there. If it was Rachele then Rankine then yes but McAdam? What dorks .

 

Well... he can’t easily walk to us in the PSD. Adelaide were expecting and happy to re-contract McAdam, and they have an earlier pick than us in the PSD. They could hold firm.

  • 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.
