Shh. Let him go ahead with his ideas.

I would seek out 0 players because going for anything U23 would usually ask for something hefty in return, and likely to be picks, which we are not trading away.

Seek draft picks? Late 1st rounders should be the go.

Corey Jones surely won't go. Roos need him because Thompson won't last long and Edwards is inconsistent, and now that Grant has gone- Hale can't be their only avenue to goal.

Don't rule out getting players in trade week who are over 23 freak.

jones is worth a top 20 pick and we should seriously consider trading him because Moloney is older, less value, yet valuable to our team as he can roost the ball and win it tight, as well as being a better leader. Jones gets wrapped up too much. Valenti is worth keeping, and we'd neevr trade mclean or mcdonald

Better watch your Joneses BB. I presume you mean Nathan in the last paragraph.

FWIW, I wouldn't touch Corey Jones with a barge pole; has had a dog of a year. Over paid, over rated. Sound familiar?

how can you even consider trading for these kinds of players, when we are ONLY going through this part of the season with one thing in mind, THE DRAFT. Look towards the draft and consider who we should pick up and who we could trade off, cause this trading for players business ain't gonna happen.

.... the draft is the way to go..another pick in the top 20 would be great except i dont think we have any trade-able players worth that much

Indeed.

Whilst Jones is a good player. He has struggled this year and does not fit Mfc's youth requirements ....

He has been dropped again. He has the ability to kick multiple goals. Had a great year last year. I think we should go for him. I'd be interested in Boyle as well.

I cant see it happening, but good on u for putting an idea out there mate, dont let them shoot u down..

Boyle is a far more viable option, and is one 2 look at, As ive mentioned a dozen times.. :)

Corey Jones is the biggest front runner in the league, and he has some of his own team mates chasing him for this title...Daniel Wells and Daniel Harris look great when the roos are up and beating someone but when the pressure is on and the game is there to be won, they are as soft as butter

Corey Jones is a bit older than I thought he was so he's probably not a great idea for the club, but if someone does pick him up they will have a good player. Even though he hasn't had a great year he has still kicked more goals than any Melbourne player.

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo
