Analysis Death-Riding Melbourne 2018 (now with poll)

[GreyCrow]

He played 22 games last season and 17 the season prior.

Probably being a touch harsh given his age but do watch him closely as my brother follows the Dogs and it feels like he's really fallen off last season and hasn't looked any better this year.

I read it upside down.

His numbers are actually good. Maybe his ratios are out more handballs than kicks but 25 ave last year

 

[Coopers]

Should be band 2 compo (end of 1st).

Well, he was drafted in the first round, and is worth that still.
A reckon we'd get that, but we'd trade him before it comes to that, if it's required.

 

[Thetrader15]

We get Fogarty, they get a young player with bags of potential who really wants to be in Brisbane.

Fog wants to be in Brisbane?

 

[Thetrader15]

Can you add what our pick number from Melbourne is at it currently stands as our thanks to Jake.

 

[Thetrader15]

To be fair, Charlie was worth pick 12 every day of the week. Could be leading brisbanes best and fairest at the moment.

I'd have thought Stef Martin was way ahead of CC

Lynch is not a FA.

Could this week get any better? If there was one player other than Gawn that they simply couldn't afford to lose, its Petracca.

Oliver or Hogan would have been a big loss too.

Oliver true. Hogan they can cover with Pederson or moving around their 3rd talls. But Petracca was the one who was really firing them along in the first half against the tigers.

 

[Deaneus!]

YES.


MORE!!!!

If he decides he wants to leave we have no bargaining power, no way they give up a top 5 draft pick. Best we will get is the end of 1st round compo pick

New supporter? Did you know that Patrick Dangerfield of the Geelong Cats was once a Crow's player. He left as a RFA and we got a first and second round pick for him.

 

[1970crow]

What are you talking about? The AFL formula for working out compo picks is hidden and is known to be variable. What pick did Melbourne get for Frawley?

One after their first.

Reckon they'll be in the 8 in a month, not sure they'll stay there though.

if they aren't they're stuffed. Their next 4 they should win. This week genuine 50/50 with 2 underperforming teams (based on pre season hype and expectation) so really a battle of whose going worse, then 3 they'd expect to win. Anything less that 3-1 in that time would be worrying for them, 1-3 and we should be able to start getting excited about the draft!

They should be Carlton and St Kilda, but I'm tipping Essendon this week and GC at the Gabba will be no certainty.

With Ports 2 injuries, they could finish lower than Melbourne now

Where are they playing Saints? If Ethiad you never know

De Goey's dog has a lot to answer for.

Etihad.

Wanted to tip bombers but 4 day break is killer

What about 5 day breaak?

Same. The only reason i am tipping Melbourne. Also Richmond over Pies, but that may have happened in any case.
