I was thinking of a way to free up Jack Grimes to go into the midfield next year while also having someone damaging and a great kick off the half back line and my thoughts drifted to nick malceski from Sydney. Thoughts people ? is he worth pursuing?

    Our backline is fine. No.

    We have other areas of our structure that need way more attention.

    Doubt he'd go, if we wanted a player of that caliber id chase Josh Drummond.

    Would cost a bit. Important player for the Swans and in AA contention this year.

    Y not throw up a player who is lookin to be traded or has ambitions to move

    Then maybe propose a player from our list who may need a trade

    Not a well thought out thread

    We need Pavlich but can we get him with Gold Coast havin picks etc - NO

    Lets not be silly

    Need Pavlich?

    Not likely.

    I wouldn't take him even if he wanted to come to us.

    You need to think about the logistics and repercussions of a trade also.

    I think one of McCarthy, Heppell, or Smedts will be available to us at pick 12. Any of those kids would be a brilliant addition imo.. They're the sort of rebounding defenders any team would want...Defensively competent, and dangerous when in possession.

    We absolutely need one of these type of players as we dont have one currently.

    I wouldn't be chasing Malceski or Drummond. We'd have to give up something unreasonable for them (including stupid amounts of cash), and they've both had the LARS surgery. So I mean their legs could fall off at any time...hardly a wise move.

    I'm liking your posts, DD. Keep it up. But I've heard some pretty good things about that surgery, so that wouldn't bother me. Not to mention the fact that if we did get Drummond, we'd be doing him a favour by getting him off that slab of concrete that is the centre of the Gabba pitch.

    Very true RE: GABBA surface... probably contributes a lot to their injuries (same with Subi). I'd be happy to have either of those players. The only worry is regarding what we'd have to give up to get either of them in terms of money and picks/players..

    You'd obviously take Drummond for a 4th round pick in a heartbeat. We'd have to give up more meaningful picks though, and in Drummond's case, he wants 450k a season apparently, which is a lot for a bloke who's so injury prone..

    It's pointless talking about malceski as he is probably one of sydney's most important players.

    Where as I think Watson will be a great rebounding player off half back who can also go forward, someone we may look at with pick 12. He is a great kick and similar to drummond

    Take a bow son.

    Matty Watson is exactly whats needed.

    Warnock could then be offloaded with confidence that it wont come back to bite us.

  • Quote

    Why do we need another KPD, especially if they're slow? Why not get a quick running defender? Ben Jacobs?

  • Quote

    why does grimes suddenly have to play midfield. warnock in the two`s keeps pressure on the other kpd, unless he wants out he stays.

  • Quote

    WATSON can be used in various positions and melb would use him similar to a drummond or maceski, he reads the play very well and very rarely wastes the ball. I think this is what we lack coming out of defence and off half back.

  • Quote

    Who the [censored] is Watson?

    Jobe???

  • Quote

    Matt Watson does not impress me.

    Looks slow.

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.
