I suggested this early in the season and was ridiculed because 90% of people on here got offended that we could even contemplate trading him. Most people wont agree because they are all very blinded and one eyed but it is a very good suggestion.

If we are going to add Sculy and Trengrove then maybe we need to look at moving either Brock or Jones on

As much as that hurts me to say i agree with this mate.

No way in hell id trade beamer after the year he had and the passion he plays with.

Brock and Jones are very similar, i love em both and i think Brock with a full pre-season and having scully and co around will look a different player next year.

But yeah if we get Scully and Trengove which i think thats what will happen, there just seems to be too many mid players!?

Totally off the table IMO, Brock is a demon through and through.

True. But I just don't understand what happened to him this year. He was just painfully slow, he kicking was awful and really went missing when it mattered.

I was expecting a break through year and predicted him to snag the captaincy for 2010 if Junior was ready to hand it over.

I think we should trade him.

He is not captain quality at all. He is to SLOW, doesn't tackle and turns the ball over every time he gets its.

All he is good for is giving monet back to the club for the debt.

I WOULD TRADE HIM WITHOUT THINKING.

Get some young kids with good skills instead.

Am I wrong in thinking he's a gold coast boy? I'd be happy to trade him for a first rounder. I don't doubt his commitment, but I agree with a lot of the posters above.

Just two more months, just two more months!

What happens then?

Oh, I know what happens then - we get 2 shiny new midfielders that will make our other midfielders better and that makes threads like this stupid beyond belief?

You're aggressive and patronising 45HG16, and I for one don't like it...

That's exactly what you would be doing if you traded him.

He's had 1 ordinary year, there are a lot more players on the list that have more than 1 ordinary year and are still at the club.

He had no pre season and played like he was injured for the majority of the year. If he plays like this next year then it's time to consider a trade.

But there is a ling, bartel and enright there.... just need a top ten afl mid to round off the group....

I want to keep Mclean and Jones but who are we going to play in the middle.... Jones was played out of the fwd line for the last eight weeks so maybe the FD see his future there....

If we recruit Scully(obviouisly) he his in the midfield and maybe trengove or marabito will play high half forward with sylvia thus being the extra midfielders

I reckon we should take the risk and pick up Morabito, this guy looks like a gun and could be what the team needs in order to go to the next level. If we were to go with the safe option, like martin, trengove and cunnington, i could see these guys in the mclean mould. A team of mclean's wont win us a flag.

about time a few of you agreed with me .Yes trade mclean immediately and ensure that valenti stays on the list .I beleive he is our best mid fielder and if the club decides to let him go then watch him turn into the next darren jolly

    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
