Get it done, Dees. Get it done.

Not too much to ask...

    Walking to the psd is an option for them. We’d get nothing.

    they’ll offer us something. But no way they’ll pay full value

    My thoughts also. Using this route Eagles might even sweeten the deal for McVee.

    My guess is a third rounder which given the Eagles ladder position is almost a late second from most clubs

    That doesn’t sound right at all. Don’t we just have to match the salary of the club that puts an offer forward or something to that effect?

    Walking to the PSD and MFC getting duped would be a major FU move by any player let alone Judd.

    Doesn’t sound like he is going any way but the AFL needs to close that loop hole by offering a compensation as a minimum. I don’t see how that’s different to clubs that bid on players like the Essendon / North deal for McKay.

    I would imagine that Judd would have to take a pay at W.C due to Reid's massive wage next year.

    Only if they're a restricted free agent. McVee isn't a free agent, so normally would require a trade even when out of contract. But given WC are 18th, they get #1 pick in the preseason draft and we'd get nothing.

    But you're right, would be a real 'screw you' move, which I don't think McVee would do. But I also think he'll re-sign

    When was the last time a player went to the PSD because a deal couldn't be done?

    Judd is really important player for us i reckon.

    He has only recently been getting somewhere near his best this season but that is because his injuries completely derailed his season (ditto for Kolt to a lesser extent, Lindsay whose PCL meant he had a sub optimal preseason - the impact of interrupted preseasons cant be underestimated, partic for young players).

    By far our biggest need is elite kicks and when on Judd is arguably our best field kick. Totally agree that Judd likey wants to play half back rather than being the main small/medium lock down defender. And like you i suspect the only reason he hasn't is the injury to AMW who was primed for the key role of small/medium lock down defender.

    Judd's best position IMO is not a mid it is an attacking half back flanker that has the green light to run off his nominal opponent, be aggressive and push forward (would love him to be takin a high number of inside 50 kicks) and take on high risk kicks on transition that open up opposition's zones defences.

    That role has become one of the most critical in footy given how important ball movement is atm. A player that comes to mind that plays that role super well (and a player i would love to come to the dees) is Kitty Coleman.

    Hope his ego can take it.

    Because I agree completely. The pace of the game is too quick for him in the midfield, but off the back of stoppage he could be a weapon.

    Hard conversations to be hard.

    Judd McVee is gone, he hasn’t signed yet which means he’s out, he’s been playing like he’s already got his head at Wet Toast or Shockers

    i suspect it may have been jackson hateley, who left gw$ two years after being drafted at pick #13 to go to the crom in 2020

    they couldn't get a deal done, so he joined the latter via the psd

    he only lasted two years there and is now in the vfl, i think

    https://www.afc.com.au/news/835814/crows-set-to-take-hately-via-pre-season-draft

    The Crows could not reach an agreement with the Giants prior to the end of the AFL Trade Period on Thursday evening. 

    Crows General Manager List Management and Strategy Justin Reid said Hately remains committed to wearing the tricolours next season.

    “Jackson wants to be at the Crows in 2021 and given we have the first pick in the pre-season draft, we will be able to make this happen," Reid said.

    Was Jack Martin from the Sins to Carlton not PSD?!

    It doesn’t happen often but that’s just because the club the players is leaving usually accepts a very average pick rather than getting no pick.

    Let’s hope it doesn’t come to that. At worst let’s hope he does what Nibbler did a nominate a state not a club.

    Yep, Martin was a 2019 PSD by Carlton. And Hately 2020. So a few

    I was 95% certain he’d sign a new contract. But as time goes on, the confidence level is dropping. Now 50/50 he stays. Maybe he waits until the new coach is appointed.

    Might I just say its mighty presumptive to suggest ( categorically) that the Weagles might not heave themselves out of the cellar.

    Their history over recent decades might be considered better than ours !!

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

      The Dogs reigned supreme in 2018 with an inaugural AFLW premiership cup and the Demons matched this feat by winning the cup as the Season 7 2022 champions.Meggs wasn’t born when the Doggies won their first VFL premiership cup against the Demons in 1954. Covid prevented many Demons fans from legally witnessing the victorious 2021 AFL Grand Final cup performance between the Demons and the Bulldogs, but we all grin when remembering those magnificent seven third quarter goals.

    • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

      Hawthorn and Melbourne. Two teams with impressive form from last week but with seasons that are travelling on different trajectories meet in Saturday’s twilight game for what could well be the most intriguing contest of the AFL’s penultimate round. Sadly, the game has been relegated to that unappealing time slot in the weekend when Melburnians are typically preoccupied with activities other than football. It falls between the morning's shopping, afternoon sport and recreation, and Saturday night fever. A time usually reserved for relatively insignificant events but this one is not a nothingburger for either of the clubs or their fans.

    • AFLW: 2025 Season Preview

      Ten seasons. Eighteen teams. With the young talent pathway finally fully connected, Women’s Australian Rules football is building momentum and Season 2025 promises to be the best yet. In advance of Season 10, the AFL leadership has engaged in candid discussions with all clubs regarding strategies to boost attendance and expand fan bases. Concerningly, average attendances in 2024 were 2,660 fans per match, with the women’s game incurring an annual loss of approximately $50 million.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?
