Is this a riddle? Its that time of year....

So he's on a par with Oscar according to some here....Straight swap anyone?

This. Remember he was coming back from the 'doping' scandal and had a point to prove but his run and ball use were outstanding. Is pretty tough as well. He is in the shadow of Kelly and others there so may want to step outside of that and get paid a bomb....

It doesn't change the argument for Lever. Our backline is presently a weakness and needs bolstering with a quality tall. Frost and OMac May not make it. A good player should be versatile enough that we can use them in other positions. A team needs a number of options for all spots because of injuries, form etc. It's too simplistic to say just because we signed Frost we must be after a mid.

How stupid would we look to have traded pick 2 and then pay $10m for Kelly a couple of years later. We have done some dumb deals but I'd be pretty sure this isnt going to be one of them.

Because the back six are working so well............

Same as Brent Prismall. A lot here were pretty unhappy when he wouldn't come to the Dees

Oops sorry..a posting problem!

He's better than both of those...

The managers get relatively little. 3% I believe. Its mandated from the AFL. That is a $3k a year diff. Hardly earth shattering.

He's better than both of those...

I thought you had jumped off this hobby horse?

I wouldnt write Frost off. He has some flaws for sure but he also has lightning pace, can take a mark and is strong. I'd be happy if we was a Lever for Frost swap of course but having both would give us some flexibility.

Just to be sure you are not taking the pizz.... Don't be revisionist. When we did that deal we were desperate to inject some talent into the side immediately. We won 2 games for the year and had Terlich and Matt Jones finish 3rd and 4th in our B&F. It was a dire situation. We did the pick 2 deal and got Tyson and Salem. Tyson's first year was a stand out. Had we taken Kelly and had to wait 4 years for him to blossom who knows where we would be.

Do you think?

Boaty McBoatface made the AFLPA U22 top 40 squad...just sayin.....

You can? So if Frost says I want to go to Adelaide we can't do a trade he ends up back in the draft? Is that how it works?

Not sure how you are going to trade Frost. He is out of contract.

You did make those comments without seeing the incident. Just sayin...

You're splitting hairs there. No one disputes Salem is a fantastic kick of the football. Possibly our best kick.

We already have one of those.............

Did Pavlich go home to Adelaide? No Has Sloan come back to Melbourne? No Do we need to bang on about Hogan and Perth for the next 3 years?

People really think this is a factor? And you are guessing based on his Dad's team? Seriously.

Not much love for this guy that played his 100th game today. Another great game and really put his body on the line in the last qtr (as did Oscar and Lewis). The recruit of the year for mine and probably top 2 in the Bluey (altho he missed the first 4 games). I love having him at the Demons and he is one of the few players that i feel calm when the ball is in his hands. Very glad he chose the Demons.
