Trade week targets & rumours? [merged]

[tiger101]

Be interesting to see if any deals get done over the weekend.

Edit: So far Essendon, Bulldogs, Dees, Hawks and Saints have declared no interest in Fev. So that leaves 4 other Melbourne clubs.

Apart from Jeannie Pratt, no one at Carlton wants Fev back so that leaves 3 - Pies, North and us - and I don't see us wanting Fev either with Jack and Vickery kicking 100 goals between them, Griffiths in wings and of course our own old temporary mature rookie forward in Miller lol.

Also on One Week at a Time i think it was, just before the end of the home and away season when Dimma was on, they put the question to him and he said it was a very different situation with Cousins and the club has changed. He also clearly stated "not at our club." I think it's a no brained anyway as we have our own Coleman medalist, emerging big forwards, not to mention he doesn't even fit the MO. Confident we haven't even looked in Fev's general direction.

Good memory dwaino. So it's down to either the Pies or North. Not sure why the Pies we go with Fev when they have just re-signed Dawes to play alongside Cloke. So it's top-up Naught Melbourne as Tucky would say as favourite IMO.

Yep Naught are going for a desperate attempt to increase their membership base albeit briefly from  5 to about 12 so that Brayshaw and co can say they have had the biggest increase in membership ever recorded and to have one last crack at finals and maybe give Brent Harvey Michael Firrito and Drew Petrie one last chance to get beaten by a top 4 side by 15 goals as they did in the 2007 finals before they go into oblivion.

I hope they finish ninth again and they can be called Ninth Melbourne as someone has already mentioned before they fall down the ladder further and be referred to again as Naught Melbourne.

Alot of absolute terrible clubs none more so than Naught, St Kilda and Melbfail.

Dooks called Fev to Norf a while back

Yes, other members seem to be a bit slow on the uptake today

FFS Jackstar was right, Bate is a gun

Melbourne has rejected the Bulldogs' offer of pick 39 for forward Matthew Bate. The Demons have asked for a first-round pick, a demand the Bulldogs believe is excessive. Bate is contracted for next year.

FFS Dees, get a clue

[one-eyed]

Stick to the topic ppl in this and other threads and leave all the other "stuff"  to PMs. Other posters don't want to wade through it.

[one-eyed]

THE Western Bulldogs, North Melbourne, Melbourne and Essendon have ruled out giving fallen Coleman medallist Brendan Fevola a third AFL home.

A Kangaroos spokeswoman said North Melbourne was ''definitely not'' the club.

So that leaves Collingwood then?

Think you should get a clue, he can play and is better than half the duds on our list.

And us?

I smell a Cousin's style backflip coming and I like it!

Why wouldn't you through Fev on the rookie list. It is a wasted spot anyway and Fev would be insurance if a key forward went down. He would certainly be a lot better value than Westhoff or Miller.

Plus he would give us a spike in membership.

If he stuffs up of the field then cut him loose, anyone who says that stuff effects other players in condoning individuals who are mentally weak.

[TigerTimeII]

from what i hear the tigers are def thinking about fev 

[Gigantor]

as good as fev was in a past life..i can imagine the potential problems we might get ,not just off field but on field also..with maybe noses getting out of joint with jack,tyrone ,and later ben...i can see a roach/taylor scenario happening here

[Loui Tufga]

I think if Miller calls it quits he will defiantly be on our radar

[WilliamPowell]

Plus he would give us a spike in membership.

I agree he would in a DOWNWARD spike
