ur 2rd trade would be considered an insult to Brisbane. Wood in a young, promising ruckman who won a rising star nomination this year. ruckman (ala Jolly for pick14) have extremely high currency.Brad Miller is most likely going to get delisted in MFC cant trade him. Miller is worth maybe a 3rd or 4th round selection. Wood in worth a 1st round pick.

get serious before suggesting trades.

the other trades seem reasonable...

but the truth is that we wont be making more than 1 or 2 trades. last trade period only 9 players moved clubs! trade period is fun to speculate but it is ALWAYS much more uneventful than anticipated.

Why would Eagles want to fill up a space on their list with Chris Johnson?

He is a W.A boy , and Worsfold gets the best out of everyone

He resurrected Steven Armstrong and CJ is way more talented

I would love Cameron Wood for Brad Miller. If brisbane think that they can turn Miller into a better player and we get Cameron Wood out of that deal I'd be delighted.

Jamar is a hack so i am not sure that adelaide will want to pick him up in trade week. If we delist Jamar then then i think that Carlton might pick him up in the pre-season draft. Carlton hoped that Cain Ackland would be the ruckman they thought he could be but that didnt happen so IMO they might pick up Jamar in the Pre-season draft.

I thought that, but if he agrees to it he can be...

I can't see Cameron Bruce, who is getting married soon, has lived in Melbourne his entire life etc... moving to Perth.

We are not trading Bruce. Time to find better alternatives.

West Coast are apperantly looking for an early pick and a good developing player.

How about...

Pick 4 + Sylvia (throw in pick 20 if they want)?

And before everyone attacks me, think very carefully whether you'll miss Sylvia when you have Chris Judd running around...

i think 4 and sylvia could be a deal breaker. i can see sylvia being good, but not as good as judd. sylvia is a player i dont believe we would miss from our current structure, because he hasnt yet got fit enough to own a position.

imagine judd in our team, he would get the tag, meaning TJ and brock can concentrate on getting the footy...

That's a fair point.

How about Pick 4 + Aaron Davey?

*ducks for cover*

I'd be reluctant to part with say James Frawley who West Coast rated very highly in last year's draft, and I'd even be reluctant to part with Lynden Dunn or Matthew Bate, but at the end of the day, Chris Judd is Chris Judd. Are we about to miss out on arguably the best footballer the game has ever produced because we're scared to part with someone who has 'potential'?

first 2 are good, but i think you are severely underestimating the value of johnstone, he would get a first round pick without dout

i'd hate to lose davey two put picking up bock would be awesome

Hmmm..... CJ to Perth....Miller to Qld......Hell, I did not believe that the draft was a family repatriation system with no focus on actually working out whether CJ or Miller would provide anything to the interstate club.

Brisbane and WCE would have to have rocks in their heads to do that deal. Plain dumb.

Armas is ripping it up in WAFL. Made it big time. A case of right team at the right time. He should send a Xmas card each year to Ashley Sampi saying thank you for imploding your career.

Hopefully Chris Judd nominates us as the club he wants to play for. That way WCE will be forced to deal with us or lose him for nothing.

What if we traded Miller, Robertson and pick 21 to the Bulldogs for pick 5.

We could then offer WCE Chris Johnson and pick 5 for Judd. I think this would be enough, like I said, it is better than losing him for nothing.

Note to Rhino: I am not proposing Chris Johnson simply because he is from WA. WCE want a young developing player. Chris Johnson is young and was highly rated going into the 2003 draft. He is a good size, quick and has good skills. He is the kind of player that, in a good side like WCE would really come along. He is suited to Subiaco as well. We all know that he had confidence problems at Melbourne, Worsfold can turn him around. The fact that his family and friends are in Perth is a side issue, but a bonus.

That means out: Bizzell (retired), Brown (retired), Miller (traded), Neville (delisted), Pickett (retired), Robertson (traded), Ward (delisted)

In: Judd

ND Picks: 4, 37, 53, 69

PSD pick: 3

Promote: Bode

Happy days.

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo
