Players we should be looking at for trade week

Recommended Posts

is Jaymie Graham actually up for a trade. i thought he signed a contract this year???

any one know any information on this???

Meeson- ours for pick 37

Ryan Murphey- should be our main target. will fit in perfectly. we desperately need another key forward for post neitz. id give up quite a lot to get him.

Sherman- looks a handy player but only for cheap. he should not be targeted, rather just go for it if the opportunity arises.

Buchanan- only if he's part of a deal as a sweetener (e.g. travis for 11+buchanan)...shouldnt be specifically targeted. will not significantly add to our side.

all the rest not interested (Adcock's staying btw) bc i only want players that will make a contribution to our team and are under 25. any traded player should be able to fit into our best 18 easily.

(meeson the exception bc we need longer term option post white)

Meeson..i like the sound of him...who does he play for though???

Buchanan and Murphy should be our targets

Buchanan and pick 11 for Miller and someone else, chris johnson perhaps?? tj wants to stay at the club and is sick of the trade rumours, and bruce is class with the right people around him- year to forget, like brocks

Murphy would be beautiful to help bolster either the defence, or start shaping into a forward around Juice Newton and Bata

Alwyn davey could be an easy pickup if he wants to be with Aaron-- essendon will then have to take almost anything we offer them...a 4th round draft pick?

great work dazzle davey

i know meeson is gonna be a dee but why is he so keen to come to melbourne? and what are we giving up for him?

also, i think we aim at buchanan...we cant get too many players because we'll have nothing left to give out. if that whole alwyn davey rumour is true i would love to get him.

IN:Meeson, Davey, Buchanan

OUT: Miller, C Johnson, a couple of 3rd-4th round draft picks, Fergy boy

To continue the thread theme, I would look at Murphy the longest. Try and bring him home.

He's a country boy from memory, so the pull of Melbourne may not be that great. Huge, raw talent, and if you recall what he did to us in that semi last year; kicked a few, took some strong marks

Very attractive option.

Jed would have to be the number 1 preference on that list, however, i don't think he'll be available.

Dunn has done nothing to excite anyone in 4 years on a list - no thanks

Graham has signed a new contract this year.

The tigers won't give up Polo or McGuane, they are some of their better prospects. Nor will the Kangaroos give up Lower.

No thanks to Tenace, Gwilt, Sweeney

I'd take Sherman, Buchannan, Murphy and maybe White.. but didn't Dean Bailey say that we'd be limited players in trade-week anyway?

wat about brent prismal ... i think he is out of contract

Prismal is a great player. Tough and uses the ball well. Geelong probably won't want to get rid of him. He has been starved of oppurtunities but will step up next year. If available, yes!

Who can confirm that Davey wants out of Essendon and wants to play with Aaron? it seems logical...but he was super for them this year and essendon would be very dissappointed if he left

is it also true that trav has walked out on the club today? He told my mate that he was going to leave the club if his name was constantly thrown about for trade talks

Yes on Adcock, Murphy and Dunn.

Murphy and Dunn might not get the dollars they require due to the freo cap squeeze (paul hazelby is walking out for that same reason), so the lack of dollars could free up these solid freo players. On the other hand, you wouldn't be giving up too much for these guys, as freo are not the best team around, and these are not freos best players.

think you will find hasleby has resigned and taken a pay cut, Murphy is a great target although we have some handy fwds coming through the ranks I think Murphy's size and pace would make him a great replacement for Neitz, he would also be the best kick in our side if he came across. I also agree with Dunn would be a good get. Dreaming about getting any youngsters off the Tigers, surely they are not that stupid.

    THE BLOW by Whispering Jack

    Narrm’s finals prospects took a crushing blow after the team’s insipid performance at Optus Stadium against a confident Waaljit Marawar in the first of its Doug Nicholls Round outings for 2024.  I use the description “crushing blow” advisedly because, although the season is not yet at it’s halfway mark, the Demons have now failed abysmally in two of their games against teams currently occupying bottom eight places on the ladder.  The manner in which these losing games were played out w

    HALF FULL by KC from Casey

    It was a case of the Casey Demons going into a game with a glass half full in their match up against the Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields on Saturday. As the list of injured and unavailable AFL and VFL listed players continues to grow and with Melbourne taking all three emergencies to Perth for the weekend on a “just in case” basis, its little brother was always destined to struggle. Casey was left with only eight AFL listed players from who to select their team but only two - an out-of-form

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had
