He cant get a game for Geelong.

Could slip into our forward line nicely. I would only trade a player for him though. No picks!

Bartram who is from Torquay could be possible. Miller? Dunn?

Thoughts?

You like making stupid suggestions, don't you?

Do you even watch AFL football??

Or do you just look at the footy cards and dream about what the game would be like?

Yes, We should trade for every other Club reject. They might be handy...who knows when.

BTW, doesn't Newton have a distant 3rd cousin twice removed who lives in Lorne? Definite Geelong connection there.

Of all the trade suggestions going around this has got to be up there with the worst. Tom Lonergan...*shudder*

haha

seriously though, why the hell would anyone suggestion a 'geelong connection'? its not exactly like trying to fly perth to see family and friends, its 60 minutes by car, and i bet a pile of the geelong players live in melbourne anyway...

Melbourne don't need depth players. Get over trading recruiting dead wood

Look at all the dead wood st kilda traded for. Not all worked but they sure would be happy with quite a few of them.

especially Dawson, what a feelgood story that was

They are a team that is in the window for a premiership of coarse you would want ready made players instead of kids. they haven't played there kids all year.

Good call above. Lonergan no thanks - we've already got Dunn who could cover similar spots as depth. Watches the Saints yesterday and the depth was irrelivant - Hayes, Riewoldt, Montagna, Fisher, Gilbert and Dal Santo just killed them......the effort of Milne, Eddy, Ball, Blake, King didn't matter.

Trade for real talent only - ala Boak.

true Colm Begley they got from lions has been rarely sighted as well and only used 30 players wow

Dawson was not a trade but a rookie draft pick up by St Kilda.

I think there is a difference trading something for someone and picking up the player for free.

At pick 83 in LY's draft it would have taken something significant for him to get a game.

No thank you and we don't need Jake King either.

i can't wait for the draft to be over...need to stop this madness!

We don’t need to chase any players…much prefer melb keep the cheque book closed and chip away at the debt. Melb need to develop the players we already have to realise what we really need to buy down the track. i realise GC are coming into play...but in a couple years we should be able to grab a 26/27 old player to fill a gap. GC are not going to want these kinds of players. And melbs debt should be under control.

'just gotta grin and bare it', DB.

Dunn occassionally travels through Geelong on the way to Bells for a surf..........so I guess he'd be an option......being familiar with Geelong and all.. :blink:

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    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.

Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
