It would be good to see a 'Top 5 Goodwindees scoops of all time' post or news.com article.

I've found that a pretty big problem myself actually. I never get out of bed for $2 mill over 5 years.

Another one bites the dust, and another one, and another one. Great to see clubs holding onto their players like their future depends on it.!!!

We gave Spargo a 4 year deal, and Hayward is 10 times the player. Hayward is rightfully in high demand whereas no other club would have been looking at Spargo.

weren't there two clubs - from memory, hawthorn and the peptides? - who were sniffing around spargo as recently as last year?

small pressure forwards with good footskills are quite valuable

3 year deal for Spargo

Good deal for a young premiership player

Small forwards who can't find the football or kick goals aren't valuable, which is why Spargo found himself at Casey last year. Hayward is the opposite to Spargo.

Attention now turns to getting LDU, Lukocious, Battle, Lobb (ruck/forward) and an elite small forward and fast half back flanker with elite kicking… too much?

Good luck to Hayward and the Swans. The mail from the very reliable poster  was that the clubs were keen on his services, not necessarily he would end up there.

And no need to be a [censored] smart azz about it. 

Thanks for the support Dee Zephyr. As I clearly stated, however, apparently not clear enough for Deelectable, was that Carlton in particular had come early & hard with a 5 year, big $ offer and the Swans didn’t think they’d be able to retain him as they had other priorities. 
Two SA clubs made even bigger offers and Dees showed a little interest. 
I can tell you that the FD of the Swans are pleasantly surprised to retain him and I was told that he’s accepted at least $600k less over the term to stay at the Swans.

We extended Bill by 2 years when we could have waited until end of year. No one was chasing him, why then. He isn’t a regular AFL player even.

The first two would make us a much better team. We can only hope.

  • 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.
