Don’t we really need 2nd and 3rd round picks for next year for the points for White?

    Probably will use this in a bundle for a points trade this year

    strange trade. What value for the crows in that? 

    Maybe GWS want only future picks for Peatling

    I hope we are loading up picks to get another first rounder, maybe even try to turn pick 5 into 7 and 8 from St Kilda.

    Imagine getting a Rozee, Butters, Dursma-esq trio to rejuvenate the club. 

    We are giving everything to Essendon sadly

    Going straight out in the Essendon deal. Farewell sweet prince, we hardly knew you

    Well we must still be keeping ammo for Sharp and possibly Derksen.

    I think that means we'll get a F3 back in the deal so we have a full suite of futures beyond the F1 that's going.

    The only other path I can see is F3 from Collingwood for Tomlinson and that seems unlikely.

    they think we'll finish bottom 4

    We will have:

    2024: 5, 9 and 49

    2025: 2nd, 3rd (ess), 4th and 5th

     

    I guess we use 49 or future 3rd for Sharp,

    Derksen seems unlikely to be traded by GWS

     

    + lots of points for White next year

    At least we can death ride them back. Could be a pick 37-42 if Essendon have the spectacularly bad year we're all waiting for them to have, given their list sucks and Merrett is their only star.

    Seems strange for Adelaide with Peatling to get done, 46 could have been useful. 46 + F2 for Peatling + GWS F2 sounds about right to me.

    I don't think GWS want 2024 picks - they generally try to have high picks each year, and they already have 3x first rounders this year. So makes sense for them to load up next year instead

    Probably fair enough, GWS already have 37, 53 and 56 this year too so don't need 46 in addition.

    Maybe F2 for Peatling - do you think that's fair? F2 + F3?

    So what do we have left this year after 5 and 9?

    Edit. Pick 49, just saw on another thread, which will likely get used for Harry Sharp deal

    I hope when we win the flag next year the contribution of pick 46 gets acknowledged.

    • 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?

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
