It's so insane that the Crows would expect a player when we don't want to trade a player to them. F2 is more than generous. The Crows are starting to morph into Essendon't when it comes to trading.

I think it will be Petty CHF and JVR FF. I am hopeful that Fullarton can do enough to hold down a ruck/forward spot as well as I'm not keen on playing a rolls royce like JVR in the ruck any longer than we have to.

Petty won't be playing for half the season

Mate where has this come from? There has been no confirmation of his timeline from the club as far as I’m aware, other than that they’re confident the injury won’t impact his career long term 

Suggesting he won’t play for half a season is pure speculation - he could just as easily be ready to play round one if he can complete the post-Christmas part of the preseason 

 

 

Should’ve been a future 3rd, especially after the nonsense Adelaide and their media cheerleaders pulled with Petty.

But hey, we paid overs so let’s hope he performs to the overs too!

Future second round.  We won't know specifically which pick until the end of the H&A season next year.

It'll be a pretty [censored] F2 after we win the flag, so I am OK with that.

Are we thinking with McAdams  up forward that Kozzie will spend more time in the midfield?

Different roles

 

McAdam can play taller

AFL Draft Order page says it was our natural F2.

We've kept the F2 linked to Sydney.

We've lost Jordan but gained McAdams. 😁

Did you say the same about Vince, Hibberd and Melksham (and perhaps Langdon)?

I'm bereft. That's a cumulative half hour a day I now have to find something else to do with!

But welcome, Shane, to you and to your fairly successful first name, MFC-wise. As to your surname, we'll endeavour to get it right by the time of your 30th goal in 2024.

Probably Vince but at that stage it was absolutely required, I think the AFL engineered that deal to help Adelaide and us. Not Hibberd, was always the right price and a great deal. Absolutely Melk, and a few good games this year has made that deal look better, it was always a lot. 

Probably Langdon, didn’t like that we added a sweetener to straight second, we were much nicer than we could’ve been. He was well worth it, but needs to get back in form.

Loll Ralphy... WHO could we have gone for that we didn't already go for ???!!

And here's how you do it, Kossie. Keep trying! 😊

We used the F2nd because we have 2 of them and only one F3rd.  It means we can still trade our F1st.

  • REPORT: Essendon

    What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

  • 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?
