In the PSD?

If another club wants to give away an early second round pick for him, they can have him.

agree. pick 21 is too much. pick 37 is a steal, but Adelaide will have to get over it, bc Meesan will simply nominate for the psd and we'll get him for nothing

Heard from a guy who spoke to a high profile ex-footballer that Johnstone could very well be going to Adelaide. Maybe Meesen will be involved in that deal?

Adelaide are kidding themselves. There is trying to get the best deal for your club, and then there is being totally unrealistic. They should just stamp the deal and be done with it. At least that way they can have the honour of being part of the first complete trade (hooray!).

well i'm telling you right now i want more than bloody meesen for trav..i wanna offload trav but not for a young ruckman@!!!!

Not a straight-swap. He could just be involved in the deal.

we have made 2 grandfinals in the last 44 years, and both times we were thrashed by record margins...we have a history of not getting close to a flag.

sydney have a recent history of being a dominant team in the competition (goodes double brownlow also) and have made 2 grandfinals, and 1 premiership

High profile footballer?

Just have a listen to Schwarta on SEN and you'll realise that being a footballer or an ex-footballer in the media entitles you to know nothing but claim you know something with such auhority that people believe you.

Poor old Adelaide, look like losing 2 good ruckmen for 3rd round picks or nothing.

I just find it amazing that Sydney are able to get the most out of not-so-great players. You wouldn't nominate Buchanan, Ablett, McVeigh, Matthews, etc as a premiership midfield unit, would you? But then, there it is, the proof is in the pudding.

When I say they are a mystery I mean that I can't understand why they continue to pick up fringe players. Surely if they can get so much out of the above blokes then they could get even more out of premium players.

As for Mattner, I would have him in the company of those players above. His tackling is good, but I am otherwise unconvinced.

McVeigh isn't a part of a premiership midfield.

I don't know, I think there a few around here who seem to be struck with the same entitlement ;) !!!

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
