Melbourne not mentioned yet again. Just once I want our club associated with a top end talent that is out of contract.

I loved it when we got Jordan Lewis as a free agent - it felt like such a great acqusition, Hibbo, Melksham also great gets too and Maudie / Lever (with draft picks) 

Go hard or go home.

The sliding doors are extra bigulous on this one, plus the random 2020 draft. We got done by Geelong though. They beat us to Isaac Smith, then jumped us in the draft for Holmes. So we looked to Rosman for wing2, then plugged, first with Hunter and now with Billings (also shout out to Gus). Got a flag, they got a flag. Lingers is a bit down since.

I'm sure we're very active in the players market and sniffing around a lot however it doesn't worry me to have our name attached all the time.

I continually see Hawthorns name attached to everyone it seems and they never land anyone of merit.  I think this looks a lot worse rather then enquiring quietly.

He's involved in this trade, or Geelong can eat a bag of [censored]. 

Let's demand this from the club.

Yeah nah that's not how it works.

Secondly why on earth would he leave Geelong to come to a club that's a current rabble.

Holmes or comparative value.

Taking a hardline trade approach is not how this works? I guess he stays then.

Edited by John Demonic

The point is simply that if a club does not have the value to make a trade, they need to ruffle the feathers of some of their own players and their fan base, to come up with the value. Why should another club make NO concessions or sacrifice any relationship (to an up and coming star) to make a trade happen? A future 1st is not worth the sacrifice we are making, if thats all thats on the table to take his contract and his playing ability.

We called them, if they want it to happen, find your player that wants to come to us.

The hardline approach is the trade demand, or it doesn't get done.

The hardline approach is the asking price or he stays. 

We are pushing Oliver out the door, we have no power in any trade negotiation, we will be lucky if we get away with a future 1st rounder and not picking up any of his salary.

What happened to the power being in the clubs hand with the writing of a long term contract? If Geelong are desperate enough they can move the pieces to get it done. I don't see why 'we' have to accept what is offered when the long term contract permits us the lee-way to keep him and repair the relationship without fear of him walking to the draft. Is sitting out really such a fearful scenario that we'd accept so little compensation?

Of course the full picture is not clear and we dont know how unified the 'we' is that's pushing him out the door and whether things are beyond repair or not. The ball is in the Cats court to come to the table with something substantial imo.

Cornes will love this if it came to fruition…. new material for his volkano.

  • 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.
