If we are smart enough we would link any trade for Sharp in with there pick 20. For a pack of later picks for the pair.

Since they don’t seem to have much else going on surely it puts us in pole position for it (like Collingwood for pick 13).
Our picks, 28, 40, 49, 54 and 63 are not enough points for Brisbane to match a pick 1 bid.

The only club that has enough points with later picks is Richmond (who are also into Sharp) and they have the ability not to select Ashcroft at pick 1 saving Brisbane an extra 400ish points. I’d say Richmond are in pole position.

Old mate Byrnes strikes again

  • First clogs up our list
  • Then words up Geelong on our Holmes plans
  • Now is trying to push Oliver to Cats
  • Also likely leaking to media

Former Cat and Demon Shannon Byrnes, who is from Shepparton and is an old boy of the local football club, has emerged as a crucial figure in the Oliver situation.

Byrnes has been a strong advocate for the recruiting of Oliver to Geelong, according to two sources at the Cattery.
When this masthead contacted Byrnes on Thursday to ask about his relationship with Oliver, he diverted us to the Cats

Read that article and I'm more confident this deal goes through. Not sure how the nuffie fans will handle it though because we stupidly guaranteed we'd keep him.
Shake his hand & thank him for his service
maybe catch up for a few lines at the Port Melbourne bowls club in the future.
 
How exciting. Another athlete with shit skills who won't get a game for us anyway with Windsor and Langdon on the wings 😍
Hopefully they are not planning on wasting Windsor talents on the wing forever. Some experience off halfback or high half forward doing ANB's old role. Attend some centre bounces as a point of difference.

Not allowed to have a 3rd winger? We have a list of 40+. What do you want? One player marked for each position onfield and then 22+ other blokes who are inside mid and defenders as backup? That's what got us into this mess.
 
Big names for a big club. 🎣 .. surprised we arent all over Deven Robertson given JT wanted him his draft year.
Think they've realised fairly quickly he isn't much chop at AFL level.. which I'd just ad surprising because that's exactly the types we recruit during trade period.

You're acting like this bloke won't be delisted in 2 years

I think Melbourne cannot afford to have a player whose bad behaviour dominates the sporting news each week.
Such a player is not good for membership or the team ethos.
Trade him. Throw in a couple of picks if that's what is takes to get rid of him.

We certainly won't be throwing our own picks in.
 
Hopefully Melbourne be creative and try and move up the draft board.If they can get Brisbanes pick 20 who are chasing points for their father sons. Possibly later on us pick 20 and a future 1st to move higher again in this draft.

Melbourne Brisbane trade
Melbourne gets
Pick 20+ Sharp
Melbourne give
28,40,49=1393points

100%, we should be all over pick 20 as part of this.

I mean, he can certainly run



Now all we need is another Jayden Hunt comparison from you know who
 
Anyone get a screenshot of her comment before he disabled comments?

Oliver most certainly is from Shepparton - or at least greater Shep (Mooroopna).
It’s literally 4km away from the Shep town centre, where he played footy and attended high school.

To say Shep isn’t his home time is utter semantics.

I mean the towns website is under the greater Shepparton shire

He went to school in Shepparton.

Grew up in Echuca?

The 4 year Jack Viney deal is still annoying me.
