Toast Deathriding Melbourne 2022! - Pick 14 it is!

[Heeney2Franklin]

We hold Melbourne first round pick for 2022

Our very first deathride thread!

 

[Kapers]

Of course the first thread is on the reigning premiers.

Let's go set up a bunch of chain fences outside their club.

 

[Bonz]

I usually quite like Melbourne.

Hope the premiership hangover is quite severe next year though.

 

[hippyhippy]

Their good injury run will come to an end... they will struggle to make the 8

 

[MF]

This is assuming we don't trade it away tomorrow

 

[Jeffers]

was about to say.....

 

[Big Blood]

Melbourne fans, it's nothing personal. But please do your thing and fall out of the eight.

 

[The King!]

bet we trade to port

 

[Tesla Tenet]

Another reason to watch other clubs games and scream about the umps helping the Demons each game.

Starting at pick 18 and wait for the slide...

Unfortunately another player wimped back to mummy and some still defend them.

I wasn't too disappointed that we got Melbourne's future first for Dawson because I originally thought we'd probably end up with pick 23 under the circumstances. But... If we give it to Port for Ladhams with nothing in return I'll be pretty pissed.

Let's be real for a sec, this is the best team we could've gotten for a reigning premier deathride. Melbourne were great this year but they're still Melbourne

 

[caesar88]

Kinda hope we do trade it because I like Melbourne and I also think it will be pick 18 at least.

Doesn't sit right.

Only way they slide is if hangover and/or injury

 

[brad cooper]

Just looking for some good examples to give us hope of a somewhat decent pick.

Adelaide premiers 1998 13th in 1999 (only 16 teams)
Bravedogs and Jeffries premiers 2016 11th in 2017
Richmond Premiers 2020 11th in 2021

 

[Slingshot Footy]

Alright, we need a scandal.

Players and coaches involved, I'm thinking shades of St Kilda 2010/11.

Is Kim Duthie available for bookings?

 

[Ed_Gein]

We will all need to get involved and It will need to be a co-ordinated effort.... From popping the tyres on their team bus to honking sirens outside their hotel the night before a game when they're interstate. We must make sure to give 'em hell. We don't want them winning games.

 

[Nuggetz]

I dont give a fk I still hope melb smash adelaide.

Look at Adelaide's list. I think a lot of teams are going to be smashing them.

I also fear we will do this. I mean why else accept the trade now unless we need it for the Ladhams trade, given there are no other pieces for the Dawson trade.

If we give Port that pick then what we are essentially saying is that Ladhams is as good as Dawson and that is clearly no where near the case.

Reckon this thread remains alive for another 7 or 8 hours... it'll switch to the Port board then

If we do that then all that proves is our club is spineless when trading.

 

[Bonz]

Think we showed we had a spine dealing with Adelaide.

Maybe we just really rate Ladhams.

 

[FreeAgent1]

Maybe lets put this on hold till after the draft.... I am almost certain we will either trade it (for Ports Future 2nd rounder) or to someone else

 

[LeverPuller]

For the record these have not gone well for the other team:

- Crows 2018 - Dees made a prelim
- North 2020 - Dees just missed the 8 - about par for the pick
- Brisbane 2021 - Dees premiers
