Hope we are campaigners in our dealings with GWS after they ****ed us around last year on Derksen
Why would we **** anyone around when they are taking a cancer off our list? Like what someone said in the Oliver thread yesterday, hurry and trade him before the immature w***er does something stupid and GWS decide they are no longer interested.
 
I doubt we'll get much for Oliver, we've basically cooked any value by making it clear they want him out.

I'm starting to come around for picks for Trac. 7 and 8 for Trac and 24. Gold Coast aren't keen but don't want to give up a player. Something has to give.
 
Basically the more we pay the better the pick
I doubt we get anything decent back even if we pay a big chunk. We should be thankful we arent doing a GC with Bowes and needing to give up a first for someone to take him.

I'll tell you that Kingsley doesn't seem like someone who would hand him with the same kid gloves that Goodwin did

No one wants to play for Melbourne, luckily 18 year olds who nominate for the draft cant tell us to **** off too or we'd be ****ed. :tearsofjoy:
 
Jed Walter got pushed out of the team and that was before JUH came over.

Bloke is basically a VFL player and we should be going hard for him as part of Trac deal.

I doubt we see any movement on the deal till Tuesday at earliest - Melbourne will focus on Oliver first.

Nuffland 'ITK' (With zero actual ITK proven posts I think) reckons we are meeting Humphrey again tomorrow.

Humphrey would be ideal just seems too much of a pipe dream. I think two top 10 picks is probably the best we'll get. I think we are keen to get back in the draft and Tracs the best way to do it. Agree that it will get done late in trade period but it's starting to get clear what we want.

In seriousness Humphrey is unlikely, but I've got no doubt we are still pushing for it this far out from the deadline. I'd also be fairly happy with the two picks.

He's gone. But if we are basically giving away 700k then I'd be disappointed if we don't walk away with a half decent pick or a very nice pick upgrade.

I’m coming around to 7 and 8 but why are we giving 24 back to them? That pick is to replace McVee.

We should ask for pick 15 to, not like they will use it for anything other than academy players. Give them 23/27/41 and Oliver pick for the hassle. Or try swap our F2 with there F1 (which is likely only a 6 pick downgrade for them anyway).

7 + 8 should get us 2 of Lindsay, Phillipou, Sharp, Dovaston, Lindsay or Grij.

I’m thinking their F1 instead of 15. Trade capital for Humphrey next year.

Rioli and junk picks after 50 got Richmond 6 and 23

Petracca is way more valuable than Rioli.

7 + 8 (which will be 10 and 11) for Petracca and junk picks after 50.

If they want picks this year before 50 then they should pay with future picks. If they want 24 and 28 for their f1 and f2
 
It’s funny thinking back to four years ago when we’d just won the flag I was thinking how people like Goodwin, Oliver and Trac would one day finish up at the club and be lauded as heroes. With warm feelings towards them from the support. Thanks for Melbourning, Melbourne.
