Great deal if he stays injury free. Seems like we'll pay 700 and Pies 300, which is about right considering pick. Dunno how Max and Grundy will work, but keen to see how it plays out if we get that 5 player bench next season.

Make it two.

Unless north are offered overs, can't see him going anywhere. Would love for us to have a look but honestly think North will just say thanks but no thanks unless a giant offer comes in.

Well, that's the end of that

Agreed. Seems like a really strange one unless max is more banged up than the club lets on

Would happily throw a third at him or grab him as a DFA end of next year.

Don't mind it for the Eagles. He's fast and breaks lines. Was the reason we finished top two and when given the chance in the right position can absolutely be a serviceable player. Won't be a star but should be an upgrade, and is incredibly fit and some of that Burgess knowledge and fitness...

Sounds about what I've heard in the Luke Jackson thread. I wish you guys the best when you trade in Sam Taylor, Charlie Curnow and Petracca for Dunkley.

We wanted him and ended up drafting rivers. If he needs to go to fit Dunkley I'd hope we asking the question.

Depending on what hawks pay salary wise could range from 30-50. Who needs an inside mid desperately? Could North take him on and move him into a coaching role post career, pay a higher pick and very little $$? Just hard to see how he has improved his value at all since last year at all.

Dunno how we'd be able to get him across - unless the pies see him as surplus to their needs. All depends on what we get for Jackson I suppose? We can't afford to pay his full contract, will probably get some average first rounder picks for Jackson. Not sure what we'd have that Pies would...

Agreed. That burst in the third quarter was because after a contest, he kept going/fighting for the clearance where most bigger/heavier rucks wouldn't have the ground ball touch.

You'd be paying top 10 for him at the moment at least. Pick 12 in 2019, can't exactly say he's gone backward since he's started. Pick 20 wouldn't even get the dees to pick up the phone.

Haven't seen anything anywhere to indicate, other than Gawn saying he's staying. I reckon he'll go - and it'll be two firsts and a player with some pick swaps floating around in there too.

It literally said he accepted much less than what was on offer. All players have accepted less than market value for long term deals that provide security for them. Time will tell if it's a good idea but it means they don't have to spend time worrying about their top players leaving now. Won a...

So looks like he signed for unders of what Freo and Essendon were offering. Good to see from him. Jackson I think is already gone but you can't keep everyone. Brayshaw has been great and I'm happy to keep him.

Re-signed until 2030. Maybe in 2031 he'll be at the Blues.

Hope he sticks it out at the Suns. They'll need a rapid rise up the ladder for him to want to stick around though.

Fair trade. Glad that it worked out without too much posturing or PSD threats.

Great trade from North. Brown might be a loss but they've injected more youth into their side and can really sell hope that they are building a talented young list.

I'll laugh fairly hard at your assertion that it's shit analysis when you're actually breaking rules to attempt to get your trades done. Melbourne can't trade out any future picks as we've traded out our future first. We don't even have our own future second anymore, fairly certain it's the...

Won't be going anywhere. They'll sign him and keep it quiet for a while - and then as soon as there's a lull in their season (if there is), it'll be announced. He rebuked offers before, he's repaid the faith Buckley has shown him, he'll stick around. Seems to have bought into the club culture...

Firstly, yes, that is tampering regarding Melb/McAsey. Carlton wouldn't trade out 9 for your future first as there's a few they fancy @ 9 and I imagine they don't think it's worth moving to your future first (they want serong), especially if there's some NGA/FS bids going on. Melbourne won't...

It's business. They aren't going to give a damn about what fans think, or the valuation put on someone due to the amount of b&f's they've won. Saints saw it as inevitable, he was retiring or moving to the Cats. Get the $$ off the books, rejuvenate the list. Realistically for the Saints is a...

I think the only thing that'll potentially push that pick a bit higher up is academy and f/s bidding - but it's pretty much fair value for Langdon. Pretty happy with the result.

Agreed - I'd be happy with Pick 22. I think prior to the trade period starting, after the way Langdon finished the year, if you told me you'd pay pick 22 I'd have said I'm perfectly happy with that. If we wrangled next year's 2nd instead it'd be very much a one-sided trade for us, so I think 22...

Has decided. Staying at Dees till end of 2021. http://www.melbournefc.com.au/news/2018-10-10/avb-to-remain-a-dee Good news.

I don't know if we can trade that first rounder from 2019 - feel like we've traded a few in a row, although, I stand to be corrected. What's WC's needs at the moment? If we want to deal without doing the FA thing - then we'll have to sacrifice someone/something of worth to get something of...

If Melbourne had any cash left, I'd say we'd be after him too. Outside runner is what we probably need. Can't see him leaving WC though, reckon he'll re-sign and be there for a while.
