If May were to stand out of the game for a year would GCS get anything from head office?

May have been mentioned earlier but I have been told we offered Tyson for Preuss and Norf said no fanks.

Some are floating the idea that the Suns are better waiting until next year for better compensation. Against that he could get injured, lose form, lose interest or stand aside for a season then they get less or nothing for him. MFC should remind them of these outcomes and suggest the benefits of trading now , like we are with Hogan (probably)

Ok if you insist. YOU HAVE NO IDEA what the final deal will be. At this stage it is speculation. But you might be right. What I have been trying to say is don't jump off a cliff it could end well. I am sorry if I have upset you, I thought I was being a voice of reason.

So the new successful structure is 2 ruckmen and a tall forward line.

Plus apparently we have asked if we can trade next year's first pick. If so the possible 6 this year plus next year's first pick for Kelly? That would be making the best of losing Hogan

Sorry for asking a question but when did the details of the official Hogan trade get announced? That's what I thought. We have not won or lost in the possible Hogan trade yet. Ok to discuss but easy on the barbs.

Why would I apologize? Have I been wrong? The truth is nothing has happened yet. Don't get so bent out of shape. You may end up being right. Or wrong.

Wow. Have you answered any of my questions? Yes I acknowledge that you have been commenting here for weeks, so what. One question I would like you to answer. Could the MFC benefit from trading Hogan? I think it is possible. You may not, but as you keep saying this is a forum for discussion, unfortunately it seems that you like what you say but not opposing views. You don't need to repond I have already read your views.

So you believe everything in the media. Which 2 - 1st rounders? What are we going to do with them? Why would I need to apologize your chicken little sky is falling attitude is over the top I have read the rumours as have you. What is to stop us using the trade to make is better with established players? Would Gaff, May, Preuss, KK make us better? We seem to play better without Hogan. So chill we can end up a better side out of this. Go dees.

Wtf are you talking about? You have no idea what we have been offered. You can rant as much as you like but this could be the best deal (or worst) in the history of football. The truth is we don't know yet so why lose your mind? Just because you repeat your rants does not make them true. Champ

If Hogan goes what do we get in return? You have no idea. This could be the best deal for the MFC ever. Yes Hogan may go on to be the best player ever, but if we win 4 flags in a row who wins?

Overreaction or what. You have no idea what the details are. Get a grip man.

The silence is deafening from all parties. It makes me think there really is a deal being negotiated. I hope we get a good deal, no a great deal.

If it is 5 & 6 or similar I don't think we go to the draft with both. I would expect more horse trading for established stars. We my friend are in the window for a flag!

Febes that is where I differ, we can benefit form this deal, so I'd say no news means it could be good news. They are probably negotiating the steak knives. Edit:- No player is more important than the club. If we trade out of a player and get better value elsewhere then go for it.

What is the purpose of the entity? If the purpose is to reduce tax the answer is no.

When you say things like this it devalues whatever you say. If Freo offered 5 + 6 + Cerra + Brayshaw + Fyfe +Neale + next years first pick + still never enough? There is a point that everyone & everything is on the table. I understand that you value him highly but that value must have a price.

Beeb that was a very different MFC

Would we be better chasing father son Darcy Moore?

Electrifying Aboriginal forwards I think that is illegal.

And to think if they insult us it's about skiing and Range Rovers.

Print media, that is so last year. There should be more banning people that write unsubstantiated rubbish and ignore faults at their own club. Go ahead ban them, the AFL have no qualms about having approved journalists, why not us. She is not approved by MFC give her nothing, in fact feed news to her opposition.

Preuss?

And that worked well!
