BTW heard a whisper the Dees will be aggressively seeking a big-name forward. Good source. We'll see...

Pavlich. He'd be fairly handy

Anyone know if Pav's out of contract?

Posted

to my memory i thought he signed on to freo last year cause i remember a lot of talk of him going to an adelaide team

So who's available apart from J. Brown? Glad Fev's got tied up!

When you have to quote yourself, you know the rumour is best kept to yourself.

We should not be trying to lure big fish as we are in a rebuilding stage and need all the high draft picks we can get.

Correct. Any talk about the getting the likes of Pavlich, Fevola, Brown is just nonsense.

Right or wrong, it's talk from within the club. Within the past week.

Ok , lets narrow it down then, well the "Big Name" forwards of the comp are Pavlich, Franklin, Brown, Bradshaw, Riewoldt, Roughead, Fevola, Mooney, Hall, Rocca, Lloyd, Hansen, Tredrea, Porplyzia, Richardson.

I can't see any of those being poached or traded.

Maybe the talk is Jack Watts.

Hansen is a Melbourne boy, city and club. He could be a chance, but his body continually falls apart.

Pretty much a red headed version of Brad Miller.

I can see how this would be true.

Next year we will have plenty of room in our salary cap, and i think i heard somewhere that we have to pay a certain percentage of that cap (a friend of mine said 97% but wasn't sure).

If that is the case it is better to lure a player over rather than pay our current list more than their worth. Except that we might have to trade a player/pick.

Personally I wouldn't want to lose picks or players. And I wouldn't look for a Power forward (i can't see any of the current power forwards being right for us at the right price). Trading for some quality or pace in the midfield might prove easier and more beneficial.

I don't mind Hansen... he could be worth a look.

pavlich is over 23 and consequently not suitable for our young list.

True. But he's West Coast's big name forward.

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
