Could we do:

McAdam, Thilthorp

For

Sparrow, 2nd round?

A former pick 2 200cm KPF only 21 years old would command more at the trade table. McAdam is worth a third rounder. Thilthorp is worth a first. Sparrow and a 2nd is unders.

I agree with you, although I don't rate McAdam at all.

But they have asked for Sparrow, so might a good starting point to see how much.

Only issue is we look like losing a lot of midfield depth so adding Sparrow to that coukd leave us thin

 

If we got him we would have two former number 2 pick key forwards at around 200cm. Thilthorp leads left, Schache leads right and Petty marks in front.

To be honest Petty is the single best Hope we have of solving our forward line problems. 

I have no hesitation in saying he is/ will be a better player than McKsy Tilthorpe is still maturing and Lynch has been there done that. 

All our questions from D/Lers re Perry's injury should cool their jets and wait till he comes back. My opinion Harry is a better chance 7 years younger than Lynch at 31 with a season long foot problem. The karma of Tom  playing a Maynard role has come back to bite. 

No way should Harry be available for trade he is worth 2 of the Crows young forward flankers.

Petty is off limits.

And unfortunately I don't think he is our fwd line saviour.  As I think he needs to take May's position in the next couple of years.

Petty might have to do it for 12 months and then we have a crack at the plethora of key forwards coming out of contract next yr.

If only we had 2 fit Petty's

I love Petty Forward he is a natural, but somehow it seems to me that his body is not durable enough to play as a Key Forward for a whole campaign.

I would rather get a full season out of him as a CHB than a stop, start season as a Forward.

The option is there to swing him forward if the need arises.

supposedly to play key back with doedee leaving and murray off a knee, plus dragon himmelberg out the door, no idea how burgess goes as a back but fogarty walker and thilthorpe would still be ahead of him

  • 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.
