Trade talk - Fergy

Featured Replies

Posted

If Fergy cannot be traded he will be delisted. Mr Ed told me and you should always beleive the horses mouth.

 

I remember back a couple of years ago, we could have gotten Sewell for him. In fact Sewell and the Dorks agreed to it, but Fergy didn't want to go.

2 years later, he has played only a handful of games, where no doubt he would have played more at the Dorks over those 2 years, plus we would have got Sewell <_<

 

i didnt mind ferg but when rivers came through, he did the job a lot better. hes a great bloke and i hope he gets traded and not delisted because he deserves a chance. if he bulked up and finally got a good pre season maybe he would be quite good, he reads the play well, has had some good games recently and was playing quite well b4 sylvia injured him. on this note, the more i think of it, the more we have lost TJ because he will not want to be there nemore after all of the trade talk

Trade week '05 - How i remember thinking:

'Sewell - why would we want that spud?'

Turns out one is a handy AFL player and the other a handy VFL player. If only we'd been able to do the trade.


Sewell is the equivalent of Batram.

Taggers, with good engines, that can't kick.

Sewell. Meh.

Ferguson is willing, but he hasn't got the body for it, or the talent.

HE HE

im not shattered we didn't get sewell, he is not that good, just the same as godders really, not going to help you win big games just runs next to a pleyer and holds him.

Batram has better pace so we still win i think.

I think you'll find Sewell was one of the most effecient players with his disposal in 06, and i presume likewise this season.

This stat was mentioned during a hawks game this year. I was surprised, but then i watched a little more closely and he hits a lot of targets. He definitely didn't go to the Daniel Ward school for kicking.

We've been waiting for Ferg to bulk up for the last 3 years !

Ferg.

Good depth, possible forward option. No trade value, is on no money. Why not keep him for one more and see if he can become the player we expected after 2003.

MFC has too many depth players and not enough best 22. We've held onto them 4 too long so its good to see us clearing these types.

So we should get rid of Holland, Miller and Warnock too and hope no KPPs get injured. You need depth, every team does. You hope your depth can come into your side and play a role which I think Fergo does.

Ferguson to Bulldogs

McMahon to Adelaide

Meeson to Melbourne

(might need to even up some picks though)

Note: 'too many'

Ferg could not hold his ground if his life depended on it.

This would be worthless to us...

My mail (from an AFL recruiter) is that this is an excellent year to trade your draft picks...

take it or leave it but i trust this news and therefore would be looking for higher picks or a player.


Ferguson could be 30 years old, and some people on here would still be stating that with a 'good pre-season in the gym' he'll add some bulk'.

its so true! :lol:

I think your 1 year early for these 3.

 

I'm sick of this dud being on a list, be gone with him already, he's embarrassing!

Anyone think the crows would bite on a straight swap Fergo for Meeson? I doubt it, but worth pondering.

Meeson is a demon, the way it is all unfolding is pretty clear. Fergo would be a great deal for us, and it would land fergo the playing time he requires.

  • GAMEDAY: West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?

  • FEATURE: 1925

    A hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.

  • PREVIEW: West Coast

    Saturday’s election night game in Perth between the West Coast Eagles and Melbourne represents 18th vs 15th which makes it a tough decision as to which party to favour. The Eagles have yet to break the ice under their new coach in Andrew McQualter who is the second understudy in a row to confront Demon Coach Simon Goodwin who was also winless until a fortnight ago. On that basis, many punters might be considering to go with the donkey vote but I’ve been assigned with the task of helping readers to come to a considered opinion on this matter of vital importance across the nation. It was almost a year ago that I wrote a preview here of the Demons’ away game against the Eagles (under the name William from Waalitj because it was Indigenous Round).  I issued a warning that it was a danger game, based on my local knowledge that the home team were no longer easybeats and that they possessed a wunderkind generational player in Harley Reid who was capable of producing stellar performances playing among men a decade and more older than he.  At the time, the Eagles already had two wins off the back of a couple of the young man’s masterclasses and they had recently given the Bombers a scare straight after their Anzac Day blockbuster draw against the then reigning premiers.

  • NON-MFC: Round 08

    Round 08 of the 2025 AFL Season kicks off on Thursday with a must-win game for the Bombers to stay in touch with the top eight, while the struggling Roos seek a morale-boosting upset. Friday sees the Saints desperate for a win as well if they are to stay in finals contention and their opponents the Dockers will be eager to crack in to the Top 8 with a win on the road. Saturday kicks off with a pivotal clash for both sides asthe Bulldogs look to solidify their top-eight spot, while Port seeks to shake their pretender tag. Then the Crows will be looking to steady their topsy turvy season against a resurgent Blues looking to make it 4 wins on the trot. On Election Night a Blockbuster will see the ladder-leading Pies take on the Cats, who are keen to bounce back after a narrow loss. On Sunday the Sydney Derby promises fireworks as the Giants aim to cement their top-eight status, while the Swans fight to keep their season alive. The Hawks, celebrating their centenary, will be looking to easily account for the Tigers who are desperate to halt their slide. The Round concludes on Sunday Night with a top end of the table QClash with significant ladder implications; both Queensland teams are in scintillating form. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • PREGAME: West Coast

    The Demons hit the road in Round 8, heading to Perth to face the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium. With momentum building, the Dees will be aiming for a third straight victory to keep their season revival on course. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • REPORT: Richmond

    The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.
