Troy Selwood delisted by Lions

No.

If we're in the market for a tagger, wouldn't be the most stupid suggestion in the world

Probably have to agree. He's just not quite good enough

 

We're not.

Who are our stoppers?


Too old for Bailey's recruitment mandate isnt he?

He's around the same age as Joel MacDonald. Nothing against Selwood but I'd say no, I think the spot would be better utilized by an 18 year old coming into the system.

I'm not sure why and haven't had much of a chance to see Selwood over the last year but I'm pretty sure he was a good footballer early on in his career, perhaps one that will find another home elsewhere.

Is he worth a look?

NO!

Who are our stoppers?

Bartram, Jones, Mcdonald (whose role i'm sure McKenzie will fill) just to name a few...

Troy is not woth persuing IMO. He does not suit our requirements again IMO.

What a relief - glad that's sorted!


always gives it all as a player and puts body on the line, will play somewhere next year just not here. Anyone think TJ will also be gone?

Yeah Trav might be in trouble, not sure if he's contracted but Vossy won't pay him. In fairness to Trav he is in there best 22 and always seems to play well. Not sure why he doesn't get more games! PLaying some spuds ahead of him. Voss deserves the flick!

Voss need to be shown the door, they have an ex bear to replace him. Mark Williams. Joel Macdonald is a better defender then Merrett and the Fev experiment was a failure only good trade was for Staker


He would not make our best 22. No thanks.

Goose was very good before he was injured!!

 

In all honesty he wouldn't be a bad depth player, a good leader and is one of the best stoppers going around.

However I still don't really want him as I don't think we need him, but he should get a job somewhere else as true taggers are hard to come by.

  • REPORT: Geelong

    I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

  • PREGAME: Essendon

    Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

  • NON-MFC: Round 04

    Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

  • POSTGAME: Geelong

    The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.
