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.

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
