well this trade period has been bordering on a farce once again due to the northern clubs academies ,the points system is being used to package a collection of 2nd and 3rd round and lower picks to upgrade to a 1st round pick and now with future pick trading it is even worse , the trade period...

Well after a long hiatus from posting on this forum , having been in self imposed exile due to my lack of passion for the modern game ,my passion has been re-ignited strangely by a loss ! I just can not stand nth-melb, there smug coach, there dads army of a playing group but most of all there...

interesting on brett Phillips show on sen, francis Jackson was on, at the end of interview he said every player on their draftable list was drafted and would now review their supplementary list of potential draftees for Wednesdays rookie draft .looks like some mature age or recycled rookies...

Ellis is a classy player just the type we need !!! time slows down when he has the ball. He is not vanilla he is classy and smooth and of all our first round picks in the last few years I am most confidant of him being a 200 game player !!! really like this kid a great pick up ;):D:D:D

no one is saying there is no risk but if our medical staff say he is good to go, we have to back them in ! if he can get back to his best he is a far better player than anything we will get at pick 12 , with the added bonus of pick 23 in a strong draft , as I said it is a no brainer to me but...

Trengove has way more talent than greenwood is more versatile and is a better leader .apart from this year he has played 18, 19, 22 and 20 games in his first 4 years , hardly the stats of someone who is chronically injured !!! personally I think he is worth the risk and gaining pick 23 in the...

agree at the rumoured $450 K over 4 years just way to much for a bloke who has played 1 good year in 7 !!!

12 is to much for greenwood but if we got 23 as part of the trengove deal we could trade it to north for greenwood . would trengove and greenwood for 12 be value in your eyes ? I personally would not give 23 for greenwood would rather take it to the draft ! but like all things draft and trading...

TRENGOVE ALL DAY LONG !!!!!!

agree with all you say loved this kid as a junior tough a real leader if he has passed our medical i'll back them in . think of him as a right footed Jordan lewis his best is yet to come DO IT TIGERS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

potential A grader for minimum cost !!! Get it done tigers !!!! as a junior loved him has leadership qualities which we lack, is tough. a similar style of player to Jordan lewis of hawthorn ; the change will be good for him . the foot stress injury only concern but if our medical staff say he is...

If we didn't have newman and Thomas clogging our list, would take him but you cant carry those 3 on the list, but if it was choice between the 3 sewell all day long !!!!

geography was never a strong point but you cant argue they have wandered around a lot !!!!! and to put it bluntly have pulled the wool over the Tassie governments eyes and are getting way overs to play down there !!!! but good luck to them they do it very well !!

not sure he is a player I liked in his draft year ,him and Tomlinson for our first 2 picks would do me but not sure of contract status with both ? and GWS would probably want more than that but it would be a good starting point .

Agree the Waverley Wanderers brown in there jumper just keeps getting darker and darker , I thought they were wearing our heritage jumper from a few years ago what a joke !!! stick to your colours wanderers which are milk chocolate brown and gold . yellow and black are taken !!! you wander from...

agree MR development at melb has been woeful the last 6 or 7 years much like our development in the late 90's early 2000's how many kids careers have been ruined by these 2 clubs !!!!!! but Tapscott is worth a shot loved him in his draft year . tough and hard and a great kick ,would take him as...

if you pre pay over the first couple of years then slide the payments down as the salary cap goes up I think it very manageable

god this time of year rumours go into overdrive . but gee for Dangerfield I would do 10 years at 800 to 900 thousand a year We need to get aggressive !!!

Haynes, O'Rourke, Tomlinson, Sumner ? would take anyone of those at right price .

with free agency these days I think you can do a combination of both strategies ,keep you early picks and use free agency for needs .

Great call he deserves it he is a really good bloke , well done Axle !!!!;):)

My god this last 9 weeks has been one of the most amazing things I have seen . I'll put my hand up and say after the Collingwood debacle this club had broken me . but to turn this season around after being 3-10 well I am just astonished !!! but so bloody proud of the club , lids what a game he...

terra if we can just beat the Tullamarine bombres this Friday night it would make this poor season tolerable , we need to stand up in a big game no more meek efforts this is our line in the sand game !!! this mob has no respect for us ,we need to pay them back .If the club want to get the...

liam sumner from gws is a player I liked in his draft year has been going ok in neafl is quick and evasive he is one I would have a close look at not sure of his contract situation but his game style is just what we need I believe .anyone have any thoughts?

Went to the game today my first game for a while just to see us live . just a few observations I think our cronic lack of leg speed creates our crab like ball movement we just cannot create enough separation from our opponent when we have the ball, and the player with the ball when he looks up...

Crowd numbers will stay low for the remainder of this season .we are a boring side to watch , when you play boring football and win you still go and watch because we all like winners but play boring football and lose well there is no incentive to go . we do not have one player who you would go...

:eek:well I'm not surprised at the selection of the side but I am disappointed to pick newman after 4 weeks out with a calf just amazes me he was cooked at the end of last year and this season ordinary at best, and to drop McDonough for christs sake try him up forward with an occasional run on...

So let me get this right we bail out our club for the umpteenth time, so we can clear our debt and become a profitable entity once again and have good facilities and a quality training ground and just as we do that, we get taxed on our profits what a bloody joke this comp has become nothing is...

spend some money on a gun recruiter . matt Rendell ?

They wont sack hardwick this year. but if next year we are wallowing down near the bottom half of the ladder as much as I hate the way his teams play . throw the chequebook at ross lyon , at least his teams are hard and compete at this stage I don't care how we win so long as we win !!
