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.

    HEAVEN OR HELL by The Oracle

    Clashes between Melbourne and St Kilda are often described as battles between the forces of heaven and hell. However, based on recent performances, it’s hard to get excited about the forthcoming match between these two sides. It would be fair to say that, at the moment, both of these teams are in the doldrums. The Demons have become the competition’s slow starters while the Saints are not only slow to begin, they’re not doing much of a job finishing off their games either. About the only th

    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

    POSTGAME: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    Many warned that this was a danger game and the Demons were totally outclassed all game by a young Eagles team at Optus Stadium in Perth as they were defeated by 35 points.

    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
