You would probably throw in any Bate compo if he goes and Moloney's. I still think we will get one compo pick, if all 3 go, in the second round. I agree I would offer that.

I just wait for him to do what many ex Demons do to us and that is star when he plays against us.

It appears that no one is interested in him as his name has been put out there. A number 12 pick 2 years ago who is now unwanted. If he is delisted it is a monumental drafting disaster. Everyone before him in his year and the next few after him are well into their AFL careers. We will have literally thrown away pick 12 in that year.

We are trying to get so many players, that if we succeed, we will not be able to have any draft picks, unless we delist about 20 players. My calculation was that if we get 4 more players and upgrade NIcho and Evans we need to move on at least 11 more to have 4 ND picks and 1 PSD pick. That is a big changeover.

I am surprised we have not heard of any enquiries about Petterd.

In the article on him, I think it said no other club was interested in a trade for him. Unbelievable, a pick 12 and 2 years later, totally unwanted. He will be rookied by someone for nothing.

Have you mentioned that to Cale?

I'd answer you, but they take away my computer at night.

Yet blokes like Maxwell said he was sensational for them, especially one on one and would be greatly missed. What is the truth?

We might get one or two in the next few days.

Caddy gone to Cats. Done deal.

There can be no doubt that the journos read the boards. Emma Quayle alluded to it in her article and basically summed the Demonland feeling as a guage for the average MFC supporter.

As do the Pies. they need him off their books. Dogs have offered 27, we have 20 and may want to keep that. Swap with Martin still looks good for Pies who get their ruckman/forward. Otherwise if Gysberts goes that should be another second rounder as will Rivers/Moloney FA comp if they can do their deals. Maybe even Petterd and a late pick could do the deal. He has had good games against them.

Very interesting if true.

Think things will quieten down over the next 2 weeks, until the final couple of days of trading.

Me too. I wouldn't be commenting if I was him. BTW can we ask him if the Blues would like Cook.

Not to mention that he would be turning his back on a reunion with Neeld and Brown. In the last half of this season the Dogs were the worst team by a mile and with an ageing list. You are probably right, the Dogs are probably offering more bones at the kennel.

Yes if they agree. Moloney could do a Monfries.

We are clearly talking to a lot of players and hope to have a few good draft picks left at draft day. We have already added 4 players to our list and will probably upgrade 2 in Nicho and Evans. That is 6 added. Unless I am missing something at this stage we have only lost 2 in Jurrah and Green.. No one else has left or been traded, which still might occur. Therefore we need to move on 4 players at least. If we pick up another 2 players in trades and say 4 drafted in ND and 1 in PSD, we will need to move on at least another 11 players this month. That would be a turnover on the main list of 13 players. That is huge, but needed. I can see some trades for pick upgrades or 2 players swapped for 1 coming up.

I could see us having a few second round picks with Gys possibly going, also Martin and Morton are possibles and FA compo for Rivers/Moloney. Should be some run and spread players in second round.

BB, have you been smoking the banana skins?

Well if it is Wines or Toumpas we are in a great positon.

You do know we haven't got pick 3 anymore.

I meant that when you add more FA compo picks in, pick 26, still the same pick we use for JV, will slide and he becomes even cheaper.

Believe it or not JV's pick at 26 may end up in the 30's. Add Goddard Saints pick, Dees, Rivers/Moloney etc.
