If anyone has any influence at the club could they please use it to get a straight swap of Wood for Travis?

We can set our club up with Wood and Meesen for years to come and our drafting will then be easier. I don't want Rhys Shaw and I would be stunned if the club really includes him in the Travis deal.

Someone, please make it happen!

    You're a very 'cup half full' kind of person if you are pinning your hopes on Meesen making it. He didn't show signs at the crows.

    Then you would agree with me adding Wood in case Meesen doesn't make it. I would take Wood instead of pick 14 and Rhys Shaw any day.

    I'd rather the pick 14 thanks. No use having half decent ruckmen if you've got no midfield to use the ball they win. We need a KPP and a pacey midfielder, and I'll have 14 so that I can jag either, depending on what type of player we get with pick 4.

    We'd probably have to trade Jamar if we picked up two ruckmen from elsewhere. Would he have any currency among the other clubs? Adelaide maybe?

    Hmm, if we got wood AND meeson, one would assume that the dees would HAVE to consider trading one of our current listed ruckman. Jamar just inked a deal, so he isnt able to be placedo n the market for 12 months. So that leaves White and PJ.

    Would the saints bite on White? You bet your bank balance they would!

    If Wood and Meeson come our way, the dees would be stupid not to float white and/or PJ.

    I can see Meesen coming, but Wood going to the Woods.

    Small problem is that Wood is under contract. Even if he wasn't he'd still want to have to come to us. Why would he do that when we have White, Jamar, PJ and are now committed to Meesen. He knows that he'll be the only realistic option at Collingwood to support Fraser.

    Jamar could still be traded if he agreed to the deal. Saints, Pies, Tigers for starters all need ruckmen, maybe even the Crows.

    Jamar for Meesen or we take him for nothing in PSD if we got Wood as swap for TJ..

    It seems that someone has done the trick for you. Shaw's not coming to Melbourne, he's on his way to Brisbane instead. The deal is that we get pick 14 and that's it!

    I note on another thread we are interested in Moran but so are the Crows, could be a problem. If we got Moran and Meesen we could still look to move Jamar to Saints, Tigers, Pies or even Crows. He is a SA boy.

    You have a thing about Jamar don't you?

    Well I am not sure if he has much improvement in him. I know he was injured this year and he doesn't get much game time, but when he was on the ground he didn't touch the ball and the opposition scored heavily. I think he is about 24 and has had 6 seasons with us, so how long do you wait. I always thought Jolly was better and we were happy to trade him. Obviously if we only get Meesen he will stay and I will say good luck Mark have a good year, this is the year under a new coach to prove yourself.

    • NON-MFC: Round 07

      Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • PREGAME: Richmond

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
