Tough Kent

Hartlett for pick 6 in a heartbeat. Inconsistent year for Hamish. They need to make some room for Dixon in the cap. Maybe HH is the sacrificial lamb? Maybe he thinks he needs a change? Him and Salem coming off half back would be mouth-watering.

If you believe Geelong and their talk that they won't alter their pay scale for PD he will earn $800,000 maximum at the Cats. We could offer at least $200,000 more a year and potentially up to 5-600k more than that. I know I'd be telling my manager to listen. I'd be prepared to drive a little further to visit mum and dad at Moggs Creek one Sunday a month for that coin.

What? Once they've been delisted or traded? Thanks

One of the few MFC players that I feel calm when he has the footy in hand. Will be a player.

Very often you don't hear about trades until they occur. And a lot of the time the speculation is a million miles off. Paying out on the club because we haven't been linked to every Tom, Dick and Harry at this stage? Ridiculous.

How would you know who the club is interested in or talking to? The trade period doesn't even start for 2.5 weeks. Just because it's not being rumoured on SEN or in the HS doesn't mean we're not being very active behind the scenes. What rubbish.

Lighten up. I thought it very humurous. Poking a bit of fun at posters who start threads at the mere mention of a player being named in the media regardless of their current situation, contract status or footy ability.

I'd much rather Sam Dwyer, who has just been delisted by the Filth, than Melksham. I think Sam offers more as a footballer and we'd get him a hell of a lot cheaper. I'm not suggesting we recruit Sam either but I know who I'd rather have.

So respectful to the club that has girls an opportunity, and so well researched. She put the boys to shame.

You'd think for Harley going forward it wouldn't purely be about money. It would be more about going to a club that can surround him with good people and a supportive environment. Hopefully we are that club.

Some might say that if you're so keen to hear the speeches then get along to the night. I wouldn't.

The BF is a celebration of the season just completed. I pumped Josh Mahoney and Todd Viney about any info coming up to trade period but got doughnuts, and rightfully so. Yes he was.

Very little time for big lumbering types playing as semi-permanent forwards unless we have Rioli/Breust/Puopolo type players applying pressure at ground level. We don't.

Clubs generally don't do this sort of thing to each other. There is a thing called 'good will' and GCS know that if they burnt a rival club in such a manner it could potentially come back and bite them on the arse.

It's either that or they're sniffing around elsewhere and quite confident of landing something big.

Mark Stevens just reported on CH7 news that MFC are officially out of the race for Harley Bennell and that we had pulled out even before his weekend exploits.

Harmes? Rising Star nominee

Says the bloke who refered to an AFL player as rubbish. I'm not suggesting we draft him. I just found your post appalling disrespectful.

None more than passionate than me [censored].

Jed performed at a level for a period of time that was good enough to see him made club captain. I think he has Bleasey covered.

And just quietly, I don't think many of our players would be capable of getting those stats in local footy, forget AFL footy.

Don't be a disrespectful [censored] to a player who has had a great career. He might not offer us a lot going forward but he's obviously been better than you've given him credit for.

I don't know much about Jed but I'm not sure how you can refer to any former club captain who has had 21 possessions, kicked 4.2 and was nominated as BOG in his most recent game as rubbish.

If it's that important and you want to 'assist' the club with your information pick the phone up yourself. If you're genuine they'll put you through to the correct people. FFS!

Best wishes Chunk. Here's hoping his 200th inspires the troops to a memorable performance. There's no way he shouldn't play this week. What an overtly poor message that would send from the club.
