How did yesterday’s “performance” affect his value to a team?   Admittedly only saw snippets but not very impressed

    This story is playing out similarly to the Horne-Francis tenure at North.  

    Ultimately Port still had to pay the fortune for JHF. All clubs can and do look past what is going on with him Reid this very moment. 

    Both will be superstars.

    Port got JHF for an absolute bargain.

    I think similar to North knocking back Adelaide's pre-draft offer for pick 1 West Coast will regret knocking our offer back for Reid.

    It was essentially 2 x first rounders + the equivalent of a 2nd rounder (multiple early 3rd rounders).

    Wrapped up in a much bigger deal.

    Probably about what he was worth.

    They got JHF and Willie Rioli for picks 9 and 20 and some late junk picks.

    It was a massive steal.

    I have no idea how people post videos/photos/gifs to this site (the data-size allowance is ridiculously small). But I’d like to post a three second clip of Reid’s antics yesterday. Any suggestions welcome.

    Time this thread got a bump as trade speculation on the Harley continues. 

    The only way this clearly happens is if we trade some of our WA talent. Now i dont want to throw names from our end, but suspect there will be a few that wouldn't mind be trading back to their home state. 

    WCE in hindsight would be kicking themselves that they didn't take our offer in 2023. They will never get the same value as the offer we put forward. 

    Bombers in the drivers seat atm...it would be awful if that came to fruition. 

    I agree on the offer.  3 first rounders would have been a better deal to rebuild their side.  Though there reports is that he came back overweight and his efforts on Sunday wont get him a bit contract at this stage.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
