It would only push it back by 1 though? With GWS taking a pick before Greene and then Greene getting matched it would make our picks 8,9 and 11. Getting 2 picks in the top 10 is exactly what mahoney and co. wanted with this evenness of the draft, And we get 3 top 10 picks for this year which would be a huge boost for our young talent stocks. would be a win, win, win IMO

Would it be fair for all clubs if it went Melb: Out: 3 In: 7, 10 Freo: Out: 7, 10 In: 6, GWS future 1st GWS: Out: 6, Future 1st In: 3 If we are going to bid on Henry at 8 then Freo lose 10 anyway so they would be upgrading their First pick by 1, getting a future first and therefore not having to 'lose' a pick on Henry.

Not that I think Nixon is right but there is so much noise around Brayshaw that just seems to not stop. Would be disappointed to lose him though Pick 3 that is still young and although his putrid 2019 his absence would leave us too thin in the middle of the ground IMO. Unless we could really over-capitalise on the trade I'd say no deal because he's worth more to our team and list than his true worth atm I think.

I’m a Physio and although it looked horrible and definitely shouldn’t have been done for the look of the club, it really wouldn’t have worsened the injury. Comes from overuse and not a specific incident.

Cheers lord nev (love the name by the way) have you got any other whispers about where we’re looking at the end of the year?

I’m honestly stunned as to what the FD see in smith over the Weid. He’s played 2 vfl games and dominated in both of them.

If you looked on the Casey demons thread no one knows what happened. Thought I would get all the discussion in one place.

As per the Casey thread - came off injured before half time with suspected ankle injury. Nothing confirmed as yet.

Casey radio is saying Lever is injured... PLEASE SHED SOME LIGHT ON THIS SOMEONE

Source on this? Or just conjecture.

How was May looking in his rehab session? @Satyriconhome

Anyone got any reports from training today?

https://www.melbournefc.com.au/news/2019-02-28/injury-update-four-stars-back-training Looks like all of Jones, Viney, May and Melk are good Kolo Good for round 1 (probably VFL) Lever Going great guns Hannan seems terrible "Hopefully see him before the bye" ? Nietschke done for the year obviously

Loved that interview so much. Admitted that he had stagnated and hadn't got as much out of his career so far but owned up to it. I can see him having an awesome pre season and catapulting us into the top 4 next year. Best believe it D'landers... this is our time.

This is a way to get us May and Pick 13 for Hogan which I think many would regard as a big win

Proposed trade: Melbourne give Hogan <----> Fremantle give picks 5 + 23 Melbourne give pick 5 <----> Adelaide give pick 13 GC give pick 19 <---> Adelaide give pick 8 GC give Steven May <------> Melbourne give pick 23 Fremantle Get: Hogan Give: Picks 5 + 23 Melbourne Get: May, Pick 13. Give: Hogan Adelaide Get: Picks 5 + 19 Give: Picks 8 + 13 GC Get: Picks 8 + 23 Give: May + 19 Thoughts on this trade?

It’s funny isn’t it. We’ve spent years talking about brayshaw’s concussion saying how tough his football style is and that’s why he’s getting them. Now people say that KK is soft because of his style of play e.g. more outside, I guarantee you a lot of those people haven’t seen him. Very excited about his acquisition. The right mix of tough and polish and I think he’ll be a great addition.

I'm 90% sure Cat B rookies don't count as players on your main 44 man squad

I am sure this will get done. Freo are all over the shop but they'll pull their heads in due to the weight of the external noise Hogan for 5 + 23 5 + 23 to the crows for 8 + 13 8 to GC for May And go fish for what we do with 13.

I would not be surprised if free backflip.

I would say that we would have had 5+23 lined up to go to the crows for 8 + 14 thus getting our two first round picks. Freo are cooked.

Did 9 news perth reveal who the other club the manager spoke to was??

If Freo do a trade with adelaide for 5 + something for Pick 13 and 16, Freo trades us pick 6 and 13 for Hogan, We trade GC pick 13 and 2018 FR pick for May and Pick 19 We then trade pick 6 and 19 plus steak knives to Port Adelaide for pick 10 and 11 All parties would have to agree to it but could be a way to work around the deadlock in picks. Thoughts?

I think he’d be a great get. Young and raw but he’s quick and has good skills and workrate and would be a huge upgrade on Garlett!

Opportunity and $$$
