Melbourne strongly targeting Brisbane’s first round pick, currently Pick 15 (1112 points). 
 

Sending pick 25 from Adelaide (756 points), Pick 38 received from Sydney (465), and Pick 50 will give the Lions 1,494 points to assist with the acquisition of L. Ashcroft.

    Now this is interesting. Has this been reported BLWNBA?

    25 (756) + 38 (465) + 50 (273) = 1494 - not sure where your 1149 points is coming from?

    Your maths makes the deal a bit more likely in terms of what the Lions will agree too but I think they will want a future pick included in any deal.

    So we're effectively trading half of Grundy's proceeds (not sure what we did with pick 46 last year), Neale-Bullen and a speculative late pick for a late first rounder.

    Would be a very crafty piece of work 

    From all reports this draft is very deep into the teens with quality

    1494 points is just shy to the equivalent of pick 9. 

    According to phantom drafts, Ashcroft will go pick 1 or 2. Let's assume it's pick 2 as most clubs who have the first pick won't bid on a player.

    Pick 2 is 2517 points. With a 20% discount for father sons that will equal 2014 points.

    Brisbane don't have a current second round pick as they traded it last year. Their next picks as it currently stands is 53 (233 points) and 69 (49 points).

    1776 points in total after the hypothetical trade.

    Technically they can go into deficit which will effect their 1st pick of 2025. I doubt the suggested trade will be enough points to satisfy Brisbane, but it's not far off.

    They'll have to find a trading partner willing to put up more than we are.

    Could be a few clubs willing to do that but impossible to predict prior to the trade/pick swap period.

    Richmond could be the trouble maker and trump us like the doggies did last year.

    If Richmond lose Graham they could end up with pick 21 and 22. They also have pick 29 as well.

    21 and 22 = 1723

    Or

    21 and 29= 1531

    Both already higher than our alleged offer without later junk picks thrown in.

    They would also split 25 for a lot more than 756 points and given the depth of this draft they may be able to split 38.

    Pick 46 came into 42 after father son / academy point matches. 

    We traded pick 42 on draft night to the Saints for their 2024 third round pick which is currently pick 45 (347 points).

    Pick 45 wasn't mentioned in the hypothetical trade but would be the difference in points needed in my previous post.

    This would mean we would have pick 5, 15, 61.

    Say we end up doing the trade, that would leave us with 5, 15, 45 and 61.

    45 for Daniel? Or perhaps future 3rd?

    61 for Derksen?

    Will we be finished or:

    Can we trade our future 1st for Geelongs 2024 1st, so I can go back to barracking for Brisbane on Saturday night?

    45 for Daniel is terrible business.  He’s declining.  Short and slow !!! On far too many $$$ as well !!!

    I agree that Toiges could be trouble but I'm not sure they're going to part with 21 and 22 for 15 unless they have someone in mind. They need to fill a lot of holes on that list with the number of players jumping ship.

    Wasn't a big fan of the move so I'm happy with that.

    • REPORT: Sydney

      A few weeks ago, I visited a fellow Melbourne Football Club supporter in hospital, and our conversation inevitably shifted from his health diagnosis to the well-being of our football team. Like him, Melbourne had faced challenges in recent months, but an intervention - in his case, surgery, and in the team's case, a change in game style - had brought about much improvement.  The team's professionals had altered its game style from a pedestrian and slow-moving approach, which yielded an average of merely 60 points for five winless games, to a faster and more direct style. This shift led to three consecutive wins and a strong competitive effort in the fourth game, albeit with a tired finish against Hawthorn, a strong premiership contender.  As we discussed our team's recent health improvement, I shared my observations on the changes within the team, including the refreshed style, the introduction of new young talent, such as rising stars Caleb Windsor, Harvey Langford, and Xavier Lindsay, and the rebranding of Kozzy Pickett from a small forward to a midfield machine who can still get among the goals. I also highlighted the dominance of captain Max Gawn in the ruck and the resurgence in form in a big way of midfield superstars Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver.

      The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.

    • CASEY: Northern Bullants

      The Casey Demons travelled to a windy Cramer Street, Preston yesterday and blew the Northern Bullants off the ground for three quarters before shutting up shop in the final term, coasting to a much-needed 71-point victory after leading by almost 15 goals at one stage. It was a pleasing performance that revived the Demons’ prospects for the 2025 season but, at the same time, very little can be taken from the game because of the weak opposition. These days, the Bullants are little more than road kill. The once proud club, situated behind the Preston Market in a now culturally diverse area, is currently facing significant financial and on-field challenges, having failed to secure a win to date in 2025.

    • GAMEDAY: Sydney

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons have a golden opportunity to build on last week’s stirring win by toppling Sydney at the MCG. A victory today would keep them firmly in the hunt for a finals spot and help them stay in touch with the pack chasing a place in the Top 8. Can the Dees make it two in a row and bring down the Swans?
