Didak in the PSD

No. We already have Wonna, Sylvia, Robbo who play small forward. He's overrated and only considering to be such a great player because he plays for the magpies.

I hate Collingwood as much as the next football supporter, but IMO Didak is one player they have that does deserve the credit he receives for his on-field performance.

He's a gun player- yes, he's also a complete fool and scum favourite, but i don't doubt his quality as a footballer.

Having said that, i'd say probably 'no'. Too old, culture sore. The only thing that stops me from completely ruling him out would be price: if we were able to get him to the club for say, a 3rd round pick (which is what the Bulldogs gave up for Aker?), i wouldn't be too unhappy to see him in red and blue.

    No - too old, and doesn't fill our key needs.

    Better to take a punt on someone who can contribute to our predicted flag contention window.

    Clubbing is ok, its the trouble that they find themselves in that is not ok.

    Clubbing + Didak = Trouble

    Just seems one of the universal laws. I reckon he's got off lightly, and it's because Collingwood rate him so highly. He's good, no doubt, I hate to see wasted talent so I hope he learns something although he's had his chances already.

    The Collingwood players are contracted so they wont be in the PSD.

    He was at a pub so I would be looking more at the drink as the cause of the trouble.

    Just throwing it out their guys.. i know alot of water has to go under the bridge yet, but if the pies were silly enoughto sack him and we had first pick in the PSD would you be happy for him to come to our club with alot of young players.

    I would, it's a PSD pick, not alot to lose..

    Interested to hear what you think?

    Don't touch the drunk driving scumbag from Collingwood.

    He seems a little confused with the term GUN AFL player. :wacko:

    Total peanut don't go there, he's headed for Jail

    The trouble of his, is to be found somewhere between his left ear, & the other one. :wacko:

    The empty space?

    I find it ludicrous that anyone would contemplate picking up Didak or Shaw irrespective of their future availability

    Club culture is parramount

    We dont want idiots at Melbourne irrespective of their football ability

    Sylvia? Mclean?

    port wanted him in 03 swap for stevens,which didnt happened, id say he will be off to the power

    No. We already have Wonna, Sylvia, Robbo who play small forward. He's overrated and only considering to be such a great player because he plays for the magpies.

    As of right now, Didak is a significantly better player than any of those three. Also only turns 26 at the start of next year. In my view, he is probably almost a genuine goal-kicking midfielder now, rather than predominantly a small forward.

    To put it in context, if he played for the MFC and had the same stats this year, he would be:

    #1 in kicks (by over 100)

    #2 total disposals

    #1 goals

    Collingwood are in a situation where they basically have to trade him so they won't get full market value, particularly given his priors. Question is whether Bailey thinks he can manage the risk because the potential reward is very high.

    I doubt it is at all likely, but we would certainly be foolish not to at least look at it.

    But he's such good mates with Sylvia! Think of the all good times and bonding they could share, helping Melbourne become a happier place and an unstoppable force on-field! :)

    Yes Big Al would be such a good influence on Col wouldn't he!!! Considering Col has set the Footy World on fire over the last Two years. Walk away from Didak he is Trouble..............

    The only reason i wouldn`t take him would be the influence he may have on a few of the boys we`re already having trouble with.

    • NON-MFC: Round 06

      The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.
