Delistings/trades at end of the season
Moonshadow replied to Northern Summer's topic in Melbourne Demons
Ban top 4 teams from trades above AFL average player salary. Also, no access to FAs. Something needs to be done to stop top clubs collecting the cream from struggling clubs -
Apparently part of the deal involves re naming the Cats home ground to Danger Field..... Ok, I'll leave now......
-
Quite. But not sure he chose the numbers Rod.
-
Any relation to Cathy?
-
Here, here! Well put indeed, I think.....
-
A lot of assumptions there DD. Our picks in the rookie draft would certainly not be "random" (but I understand you were hyperbolising) and how do you know that he has been put on a development plan by the club?

Jeremy Howe is the new age prodigal son.

Ron I'm not sure Prestia would go within 100 miles of Bennell

Had me until that last sentence

AFL probe leak of sensitive Bulldogs info to Crows
Moonshadow replied to Norm Smith's Curse's topic in Melbourne Demons
It's a joke phrase. A bit like "military intelligence" -
Except that he appears to not want to go within about 100km of us. That and Geelong are apparently the FA club of his choice. Kinda helps if he agrees to go to a club for the trade to happen. Nice dream though.

While I sometimes think the apparent lack of interest that, (a)Melbourne are showing in other team's gun players, or (b)these guns are showing in coming to the Dee's, could be concerning, I have to remind myself that Team Roos is in charge and we are no longer a club of loose lips. As Roos wrote in that email posted somewhere here, don't believe the media hype. It is still very early days. Hearing that teams like Richmond are into all and sundry tells me we are better off working quietly to attract talent. We're the underdog, but most players and managers would be aware of our supposed cap space and MFC are vastly improved upon where we were 3 years ago, on and off field.

Good to see you back Nudge. Heard any rumours?
-
Has a FA offer ever been matched by the player's current club with the view to trade for value? Not aware of one yet. If that happens, how about we get in on the mix: Adelaide get Geelong's 2015 and 2016 first round picks and Jimmy Toumpas. Geelong gets Danger and gives up 2 x 1st rounders and Horlin-Smith (or insert alternative GFC player name here). Melbourne gives up Toumpas and gets Horlin-Smith (or, as above)
-
Pretty good team. Hard to argue with that.
-
Swann is talking bs. He knows full well we didn't get pick 3 as compo for Chip, we got band 1 compo which because of our ladder position turned into pick 3. Same compo rules apply to all clubs. Lower clubs who get FA compo should get a higher pick for that compo. For Leuie or Kruze to be touted as band 1 compo is laughable.

Swap of Watts for Yarran?

Please get drunk and post more often Gen Dee! -
A man who we are pinning many hopes on Biff. A man who may become the next Stevie J, or Jake Stringer, or even Malcolm Turnbull...... Surely you're not considering surfing other anatomical topics on a Friday night after a long week at work?

GWS will do whatever gets the best deal for them, given the reality of the situation. I imagine they'd let AT go into the psd only as a last resort, as they get zero for him. Would love them to nominate us as their preferred destination for him though!

Salary cap issues and wanting Dixon are the answers to your first question. But who the hell knows, anything is possible.

Collingwood so far are the winner out of that 3 way deal. -
Give it a rest Stue. You're fast becoming a real bore.

WTF? Brayshaw has done far more in his first year than any of those guys mentioned did in theirs. I think it's our time you are wasting.
