Rumour D Mac

Just not having DMacs salary on our books would free us up to get McGovern once Sloane goes.
Otten, Cheney, DMac, Sloane, Lynch out. McGovern in.

Also and i'm not if this does work like this (so tl;dr I could be totally wrong), we may have the option to forfiet Mackays pick instead of Sloanes for Gov if we go that route.

I doubt it would work like that.

Net effect they suggest.

Still feel we trade Sloane out than him walking (if his foot allows him to)

Not at all, even Mackay at his peak is very replaceable. After all he's a third/fourth choice outside midfielder; we're also stacked with outside talent so no harm there.

Now i'm just dreaming of a second round draft pick :)

Correct, at present I'd say he's behind Seedsman, Atkins, Smith and Milera for an "outside" spot in the side. If we get both Crouches back +/- Sloane, there will be even less room as Sloane, Gibbs and Brad Crouch would be shuffled to more outside roles with the advent of Greenwood and CEY being inside beasts along with Matt. We'll also likely have Gibson hanging around in case of injury, plus Gallucci and draftee's looking for spots in the side. Mackay's played some okay footy this year, but doubt Pykey, Reid, Roo and the rest of the list management committee would be losing terribly much sleep on whether Mackay is here next year or not.

He's probably more important to them as a player setting an example of how to train on the training track, as he is important to them on field.

You forgot hamptons salary too.. apparently he’s “on a bit” and he certainly ain’t gonna stay “on a bit” if he stays and we don’t delist him..

Does mcgovern become our first million dollar + player?.. is an unbelievable player. Best defender in the comp and better than Rance imo.. can also go forward.. bloody versatile.

I can’t see it happening but it would be great.
 
D Macs wife is looking for out of adelaide at the end of the year. He is an unrestricted free agent and his management is actively looking for a suiter in melbourne to please his wife.
Ba doeing.
 
Can everyone please be kind to the new account that started this thread by liking all thier posts

Personally if this was a troll they would of picked Sloane or m crouch ect to wind us up

The account probably belongs to one of our regular contributers with connections to the club

If you were to consider this to be true. It's quite obvious dmac has not much footy left in him. Making the transition back to Melbourne would run a hell of alot smoother if he is still playing football. An opportunity to make connections

To be honest. With the rise in young players at the club. He has no future here. He is the first of the old men who's head would be on the chopping block to make way for talented kids

I reekon we could get 2 first rounders out of Carlton for him?

Straight swap for Cripps.
And maybe we swap third rounders to make it fair.

Selectors:

You don't have to pick a kid ahead of Mackay if Mackay isn't there to be picked

We get two first rounders next year?

Some old man has to go. It won't be Betts or Gibbs. Maybe Douglas,?

Douglas also out of contract, likely would have been on ~400 as well, might find a little there too.

Happy for Dougie, Dmac and Otto all to move on.

Solid servants but it feels like we will never go all the way with these guys as our senior veterans to call on in the heat of battle

Can you seriously imagine the team we would have fielded in some games this year without Douglas, Mackay and Otten.
 
This is a total bullshit thread, but for the shits and giggles, be careful what you wish for. For the sort of compo/pick/trade we'd get for Dmac, I'd prefer Dmac playing as he is. K Thanx.
I wouldn’t... I’d rather he goes and one of our younger players gets his permenant spot..

Milera, Wilson and McPherson are a few that I can think of immediately, along with a couple of others that I’d rather see play the rebound defender/mid role that DMAC plays.. and we’ve also got to remember brodie Smith needs to fit back into this group of rebounding defenders too, if not this year then definately next year..
