Unless we have other plans for the draft with pick 41 we just select him there after he nominates a price on his head. Doubt other clubs will pick him up.

Sick of us being reasonable at the table only for other clubs trying to take us for a ride.

(Going to be even weirder when they realise none will be forthcoming)

(Still sooking over Petty, obviously)

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.

The Crows don’t have a second round pick and most picks in that round are allocated to the suns. I reckon he’d cruise to 41, especially if we are offering him decent money

Random question, clearly national draft picks can be traded, can you trade PSD picks?

I don't believe so

Delusional.

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

 

Yep.  We just need for the poker game to play out now.

 

Crows second only to dodoro/Essendon in the worst clubs to deal with stakes. Total [censored] holes

And Hawkins?

Melb put in a big offer for Hawkins, they reported that today on trade radio.


We simply must hold our ground and don't budge.  That offer was more than fair.

What a 'Petty' bunch of Chardy sipping nancies!

Right... but that’s not the PSD.

I suspect that we will end up sending a best 22 player to the WCE as

part of a play for pick 1.

That would leave us with pick 11 for Darcy Wilson

How annoying we are known to be reasonable and get deals done it’s a more than fair offer you would think if Adelaide want petty at some point in the next 2 years then they do the deal otherwise we might return serve

He can nominate for either draft


Yep... he can, that’s correct.

What player?

Freo's up there and Geelong are fast becoming a leader

Yeah, surely Shane McAdam is at most a 'nice to have' type and far from being essential. With 2024 the 'deep for Victorian midfielders' draft we'd be better off hanging onto the pick.

Just doing a quick mental check, McAdam would be competing for a spot with;

Neal-Bullen, Hunter, Spargo, Chandler, Sparrow, Pickett, Woewodin, Laurie and even the rookies Howes, Moniz-Wakefield and Sestan. Petracca counts, as will Melksham when he comes back in, and I'd even say Joel Smith though the type is a bit different.

Throw in the likelihood that one of the our early draft targets will be something like McKercher, Duursma, Watson, Wilson or even Tholstrup.

Assuming his knees aren't held together by sticky tape we should grab him for depth

Yup big fan of him, had a very good end to the year in the VFL.  Purely depth though

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

They are taking over from Peter Bell and Freo as one of the worst teams to deal with.

  • POSTGAME: Essendon

    Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

  • GAMEDAY: Essendon

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
