The 2019 Draft and Trade Targets Thread
He’d clearly fit right in!

Brad Hill
tell peter bell he's dreamin! the coin doesn't worry me, particularly, but pick 2 would be absurd, unless they were chucking their first rounder (circa pick 9) back, and even then i would want to know whether our prospective pick 2 has been bumped down to pick 3 and thus ruling us out of rowell / anderson thanks to gifts to gc17

Brad Hill
possibly but if yr freo and another club is offering a contracted player $800k a year for, presumably, four or five years, then absolutely yr hand is out saying 'first round pick or no dice'

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - HARLEY BENNELL
from what i gather, footywire has the date of his expiring contract with gc17, rather than whatever deal he had with the demons there doesn't seem to be a consensus in terms of his contract length with us, but like you i thought we were simply honouring the terms of his previous deal; have not seen / cannot recall seeing anything regarding updated terms with kk

Brad Hill
that fact that he's commanding $800k a year says he's immediately worth FAR more than a second rounder

The 2019 Draft and Trade Targets Thread
Kerr has a lot of upside I think Wont get a look in at Carlton and would probably only be a depth option with us as well, but his skill set is interesting as a kpp forward depth option

Re the Adelaide blokes; Jenkins is 31 at the start of next season, is on big money for the next two seasons coming up, and plays best as third option Fogarty is thicc and thick; too small to play kpp and too slow for a role in midfield - Crows have tried him in all three areas of the ground at sanfl level and he simply doesn’t get involved in the play Greenwood is akin to Harmes - good player but not a world beater

If he can get thru the first half of a wafl season in 2020 he MIGHT get a third crack via the mid season draft or at the end of the year

The 2019 Draft and Trade Targets Thread
i guess that's because they are, predominantly, positive users of the pill who also work hard defensively brayshaw has a lot of work to do to round out his game brownlow voting means little these days; it's voted on by the maggots and - let's face it - they seem to have NO IDEA re what's happening on the ground, so why trust them with their 3-2-1 votes?

you can't be a 'one role only' player in modern footy

The 2019 Draft and Trade Targets Thread
i actually think this is a misnomer he's not being played out of position; it's been discovered that he can ONLY one ONE position - inside mid it limits him enormously compared to say, the likes of jones or harmes who can play effective roles outside the centre square set-up but are - arguably - better inside mids than brayshaw as their workrate and disposal is superior

The 2019 Draft and Trade Targets Thread
everything you said in the opening para has been true of him his entire career he started off his 2018 year in the magoos as a result of his lax two-way running he might end off 2019 back there

Injury List - Season 2019
i thought he only got a one-year deal with us? if not, then i guess he'll be with us further into his career, but his concussions have clearly become a big concern...

Injury List - Season 2019
i don't think kk will be on the list at the start of the pre-season

Injury List - Season 2019
literally what i just got told as well and if our 'treatment plan' recommended to him is true then our entire medical dept should be sacked immediately for gross negligence

Jordan Lewis To Retire this Year
i can't fathom the valuation that the media seems to be putting on him as a second round pick fourth rounder...at best

Roosy: "Deplorable" Dees have "no recognisable brand"
i am sure roos finds it absolutely galling that everything that he put in place on-field and to a lesser extent jackson off-field set up has been torn down we have become VERY easy to score against under goodwin, whereas we primarily had a defensive gameplan under roos

The 2019 Draft and Trade Targets Thread
the general football public is being set up with the expectation that gc17 will get a pointy end priority pick; i'm firmly of the belief that it'll happen would be interesting to see how anyone values jog brayshaw - speaking to various supporters of oppo teams at work and none of them want him as they see how lazy he is between the contests and how atrocious his ball use is - as at the moment i'd have him rated at a second round pick, at best we might've got a first rounder for him last year if we were brave and traded him while his value was at it's highest point coniglio is a free agent and, if he's going anywhere, it's likely to be to the hawks so he can play with his best mate jaeger o'meara i'm convinced brad hill is geelong bound as part of the tim kelly deal, with the latter more than happy to go to either wa side this year, whereas last year he ONLY wanted to go to meth coke

What to do with Nathan Jones
unfortunately this has been brewing for some time nate was VERY well rewarded for a long time; he knew that at some point that tap was going to be turned off it's no doubt a shock to him that the well is as dry as it is...but if he wants to play afl next year this honestly might be his best chance there's no doubt that it'll be negotiated to have a larger base with incentives but now he knows where he fits in our plans - pretty much on the other side of divide
