The above clubs plus Carlton all let luke ball go to the pies. teams don’t take players that say they want to play for them. Nothing to do with not being a tough club

Big question marks over martins commitment and consistency. He hasn’t be able to play at a consistent high level at GC when it should be easy to stand out. plenty of talent but I doubt he’ll become a dedicated professional overnight. No wonder he wants to go to Carlton

I hear what you are saying but surely MFC know these players a lot better and there could be a big difference between them - more than we know. Based on history 1-2 of those 4 won't play more than 20 games. One will be a gun and one good. so if we know our stuff, it matters

Fantastic news! the impact of players fitness is just too great and we need every advantage we can get especially in a 22 round season.

can he perform 2nd ruck role? if yes, then I'd grab him can't do any worse than Pruess up fwd

The reason we won’t take Martin is we won’t pay his high wages and screw up our cap. Carlton are desperate and can have him

Did we really? just pointing out we didn’t use it and we have two in top 8. Good going

Langdon tomlinson picks 3 and 8 cracking trade period!!

good deal for the dags

MFC playing it beautifully. Won all trades so far and holding firm against the giants. blink first GWS. We are happy to go to the draft with 3 and 8

good lord Papley has turned into Gary Ablett Jnr in the past week!

Gees I hope we keep 3 and 8 and get 2 very good players. those that think it takes 3-5 years to see dividends, think about Stephenson, Miers, Walsh, Rozee, etc etc. an injection of pace and youth is critical for us right now

Nothing happening I reckon

looking through GWS's list: maybe Perryman? Small backman with excellent kicking. only 21 and injured last year id do 6, 2020 1st rounded and Perryman for 3

Id take 6 and Tarranto get it done!! haha

I mean a 4th rounder is worthless... gets you already retired Eddie Betts or a crocked Sauce OR if you are Hawks, you can someone get a gun number 1 draft pick KPF. admittedly he has done 3 knees but he is worth so much more than that. how do they do it??!? i would draft patton for a 2nd rounder any day of the week

last time we traded up in the top 10 we landed Clarry that is all

Great deal for us! I hope we take 3 and 8 to the draft. Our best players are 21-25, we need an injection of youth. Add langdon, Tomlinson and 2 gun quick kids and we will look so different next year. next year's draft is weak and also a lot of academy players. We are backing ourselves to be giving Roos pick 12 or higher. LOVE IT!

Hogan was a big loss but he ended up injured again... a full season out of Fritsch, Trac and Melk. and we will look a different team up fwd. those 3 playing together with T Mac and Weed are 3 hard match ups. add in a small pressure fwd and it is not bad. all 3 can mark, kick long goals, can get ground balls, set up play etc. bring on next year! (I love the off season :-))

Good trade period to date. Addressed out most glaring need for run. We were the highest scoring team in 2018 so the scoring power is there we just need to play to a system. Drafting in a small fwd is a must also

Haven’t read through the pages. What is the contract length and money at hawks?? usually they highlight this at mfc and ignore at clubs like hawks

Happy to offer Murray a rookie spot. See if he really want to work hard and earn his career back. Weve already had a great trade period. Tomlinson and Langdon fir frost and late picks. Addressed our needs. And we have pick 3 to hopefully get a gun

Neither. We snuck into finals as a young team and did well. The wheels fell off this year. Over the last 3 years and into the future we remain a team with a good young talented group. But we still have a ways to go

Sooo yay or nay??

I reckon Cox would be getttable. Ok player who I would take if not on big money
