Burgoyne or Ball

Wolfmother
in Melbourne Demons

IF both players can't get traded and nominated for the PSD (highly doubtful, but a bit of fun) who would we pick.

Burgoyne for me, as I think we have enough inside mids but it is tough as Ball would be around in five years

    I would be happy with either via the psd (wouldn't give anything for Ball).

    But would prefer Burgoyne, he's a match winner.

    wouldn't mind Luke Ball in red and blue, would be a great player for MFC.

    But with all the work MFC have put in to Burgoyne, that's who they would take out of the two.

    i would say Ball becasue of his age, but its exactly what Mclean is.

    Borgoyne is out of our age range but probably a better player

    None of the above. Burgoyne is too old and is a huge injury risk. Ball is slow, although his toughness and ball winning are good. If I had to take one it would be Ball, but I'm not a big fan of either one coming to Melbourne.

    Similar probablity to melbourne winning a flag next year.

    Burgoyne is a match winner who can kick 5 goals from the midfield. Him hands down.

    Ball for mine, he is an absolute workhorse and supremely under-rated at St Kilda. Burgoyne on the other hand comes across as over-rated at Port Adelaide. I'd be happy with either but I'm more confident Ball would be the better option for a rejuvenated career at Melbourne.

    Played a great Grand Final & was only on for half a game, Luke Ball in the PSD would be a Bargain, as a player & Teacher.

    FFS he was Saints Captain & All Australian. Burgoyne's knee is on the way out.

    Luke Ball hands Down.

    Burgoyne as we all ready have similar players to Ball

    i would still be happy with Ball though :)

  • Quote

    Ball- he is under rated @ St.Kilda. Very happy if we got him in PSD, wouldnt trade a 1st round pick for him though as i think that rebuilding is more important. Remember that Ball was an All-Australian, club captain and was pick 2 in the '01 draft in front of Chris Judd, so he must have some kind of ability. ;)

    Sounding like Burgoyne deal is done, so you may want to change the thread heading.

    Burgoyne is done...lets turn to Luke Ball as the replacement for brock...i'm sure he'd be keen to screw over the saints...i heard somewhere he only got 40mins in the grand final or something stupid when he was up in the stats at one stage..

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      Melbourne’s early surge of optimism came crashing back to reality in its clash with Fremantle at Optus Stadium on Saturday night. Just six days after unveiling its fun-filled, attack-minded style against the Saints, the Demons were met by a Dockers outfit determined to shut it down with a blend of speed, pressure, and physicality.
