.... and the hairstyle meets minimum guidelines established by Ciccones

 

[gandaal]

I am really warming to the idea of getting Mitch Grigg to carlton
6 Goals, 31 Possies in a losing Grand Final Team is impressive. Only 19
With a solid pre-season to trim down a bit, could be a gun.
Any love for Grigg?

 

[BringBackSimmo]

I read a couple pages, saw Nick Smith's name mentioned and gave up.

No Shiel action?

 

[TerryWallet]

Just watched the repeat...

Dialogue was:

Caro: Are you interested in MM

Juddy: Yes we are interested

Hutchy: Yes he has nominated Carlton

Caro: blah blah mature age state players could be part of the trade for MM

Juddy didn't confirm or deny.

Yeah, i rewatched it and it was actually Caro who directly said Yes to Hutchy's statement. But Juddy imediately went on to say we will now sit down with Adelaide and work out a deal for him.

The point is still the same. McGovern has nominated us.

 

[slashin_velvet]

I have heard on the vine we have just enquired about Melbournes value of Jayden Hunt. Can anyone confirm?

Also, has anyone nominated us yet from GWS?

Fell off the radar this year. He had a good 17 and I know he had an ankle injury in the VFL this year. Whats the story?

 

[Kramer1]

He'll be 26 in January.

Yes but only 19 now. What part of that do you not get?

 

[BrisbaneCFC]

Maybe they do have to...

Maybe GC don't accept a future pick in the late teens and a current second rounder (which they already have a few of, to go with 3x first rounders) for a contracted, 26yo KPP who happens to be their captain.

Pick 5 is overs. I'll grant you that. Maybe GC are happy to add a late second into the mix given their bevy of picks. But at the end of the day, when your premiership window is wide open, paying a little over market value for a player that provides exactly what you're lacking isn't just OK, it's probably necessary.

May at full back, Frost on the second tall, leaving Lever to play his ideal loose intercept role. That's what Melbourne would be thinking about. And giving up Smith or King for that isn't a bad deal. Especially seeing as they're only getting pick 5 by letting Hogan go. Hogan (24yo key forward with spotty form, injury issues and shaky commitment) for May (26yo key defender, club captain, good for a suspension a year). If Melbourne can cover Hogan (McDonald, Weideman, Preuss?) then it's smart list management in my book.

If that Pick 5 gets tossed around in moves for Neale, Hogan and May, I very much expect that it will end up at the Suns. May might not be worth it, but the Suns should be firm in demanding that pick without a doubt.

 

[FairKouta]

If setterfield a kid we rated top 5 only done one ACL( Remember burgyone) has to wait for the trades to fall in place SOS must be doing something right.
Calm your farms people

 

[BringBackSimmo]

This is from June 12 when he did his ankle.. did something more happen between then and now?

Hunt's mix of pace, competitiveness and ability to perform a task make him an important player in Melbourne's future, with the speedster signed at the Demons until the end of 2020.

#bluemour

I have been in the Doc camp for a very long time, but hard to argue with this decision.

Cripps is a monster and a champion player. He seems a really nice guy, a great role model and would be a brilliant marketing tool for the club.

Can't go wrong with whichever way they choose.

 

[Sector 7G]

Fell off the radar this year. He had a good 17 and I know he had an ankle injury in the VFL this year. Whats the story?

Turned up to preseason out of shape and burns the ball too often coming out of defense. Melbourne mates with strong sources from within the Demons say he is to be moved on.

 

[Blue Pulse]

Tried that, but neither your name nor mine came up on the list.

Could be broken, right?

 

[BrisbaneCFC]

It's still true, it's not as if Charlie Curnow were walking away. Byrne has shown glimpses of talent but if he chose to leave, it wouldn't exactly set us back.

I had him in our best back 6 but if he has chosen to leave we will survive without him.

 

[La Dispute]

It will be interesting to see how this plays out

Our forwardline next year?

 

[HalAlaric]

Fell off the radar this year. He had a good 17 and I know he had an ankle injury in the VFL this year. Whats the story?

I just heard we have enquired about him and the value Melb has on him. Like you mentioned he had a serious ankle injury but he also seemed to fall a little out of favour due to his consistancy. He is signed till 2020 so its probably nothing.
