  1. Titan (or anyone) are you able to explain; if today was the cut off date for Free Agents, how can we still get Cross? If it's not through the PSD, can we just sign him in the next week without any trade occurring and without WB getting a compo for him?
  2. Unless we trade a player for a pick in the 20s. I found myself forgetting that there's a whole entire week still to go! Plenty could still happen.
  3. Mentioned on the AFL website in the Trade & Free Agency blog: "6:15pm: Senior journalist Peter Ryan has broken some trade news with Adelaide trading Bernie Vince to Melbourne for their compensation pick which is pick no. 23. peter ryan @AFL_petryan Bernie Vince officially a Demon. compensation pick to Adelaide. @afl #latetrade"
  4. Totally agree, but isn't that quote about the end of his 2012 season? Dom finished 2013 with 10 and 18 disposals against Richmond and Gold Coast respectively. Still very pumped though!
  5. So what happens if we get pick 38 for Sylvia compo and Adelaide say "nup not good enough?" Could we potentially chuck a player at them instead or as well as? Pick 38, Tapscott for Vince and Lyons? Just spit ballin' here.
  6. http://www.melbournefc.com.au/news/2013-10-18/demons-land-giant-recruit On the MFC website.
  7. I've got bartender mates who said last night that Sylvia would hit town HARD on weekends. He didn't want to stay, he was probably counting down the hours for the to Free Agency period to start.
  8. Just to make sure I didn't hear you wrong; are you Jewish?
  9. http://www.fremantlefc.com.au/video/2013-03-27/wafl-watch-viv-michie Definitely worth a crack. Would provide good run.
  10. He's referring to the Horn of Gondor if I'm not mistaken.
  11. That was a standout for me as well. The man has status and commands respect.
  12. Do we know when they will be announcing the coaching team? When Mark Neeld was announced, did his assistants come later? I can't seem to remember. I suppose I'm trying to work out if Roosy would have already confirmed his assistants before signing. SO STOKED. THE PILGZ IS JUST SO STOKED. I SHOOK MY DOGS I'M SO HAPPY, THEY'RE DEAD NOW BUT IT'S FINE. ROOS IS COACH.
  13. Not worth a try? Surely stranger things have happened.
  14. And Essendon would be keen to trade him on to potentially get an extra draft pick. That said, is Bellchambers a free agent? If I were GWS who would I prefer? Jamar or Bellchambers? You'd have to say Jamar is a better tap ruckman, but is getting old. Bellchambers is younger but isn't as good. Six of one, half a dozen of the other. We can only hope that our ability to bundle Jamar with a draft pick would give us an advantage over Essendon. They most certainly won't be trading picks, I wouldn't have thought.
  15. If the man wants to pay his own salary, I say let him.
  16. Can we maybe not have a go at Jack for potentially wanting to leave? I'd be sad to see him go too, but there's no way I'd blame him either. And I'm of the view point that he wants a reason to stay, not a reason to leave. If Paul Roos is what keeps him here, rubbing it in his face isn't the way I'd go about it. He had every right to see what his options were.
  17. There's an interview with him and Nathan on The Robbo Show this week. He actually admits right at the end that he'd love to play for us next year. Let's get him there, if he's as driven as Nath, I'm all for it. To view Robbo's groundbreaking interviewing: http://www.melbournefc.com.au/video/2013-07-12/the-robbo-show-round-16
  18. I would love so very much for Buddy to just flat out turn them down.
  19. Correct, and Morton was taken at Pick 4.So your logic says we should avoid anyone who wins The Larke Medal because Morton won it and turned out to be a spud? Turn it up.
  20. What do they base these prices on? What do they know that no one else seems to?
  21. Yeah fair call. I'd switch him and Grimes in an instant, but I still think that its handy having someone who's quite a big guy in defense. Sellar couldn't do it and Pederson can't do it going off he's recent form. I'd love Straussy to get up and going but he seems to keep finding his way back out of the side. Dunn hasn't done too badly over the last few games. Yesterday the defense was very solid right up to the last quarter when everyone dropped the bundle.
  22. I reckon Dunn's been playing some great, consistent footy down back. I can't even remember him giving away a single free kick last night. No arm chopping, no pushing in the back, and some excellent rebound efforts. He can stay right where he is. I'd much rather him there than Peddo Bear.
