GWS And Their List Of Targets Revealed

Basically there's a file called 'GWS Confidential' on the stats site (Prowess) used by GWS. When installed it gives you 46 reports of AFL players in PDF files, so it's easy to assume that they're trying to recruit some of these players.

The Melbourne players on the list are Cale Morton, Jack Grimes, Jack Trengove, Jack Watts, James Frawley and Tom Scully. The list was created in September last year, so only Morton and Scully are still uncontracted from that list.

Poor form, GWS.

Anyway, the full list of players found in the file is at the link above.

Didnt Jack Watts sign a 3 year deal late last year which would see him here until the end of 2013? or am I wrong?

most of the players on the list are out of their reach now, must have been a list put together last year?

Trengove is definitely one who comes out of contract next year. We could see the whole Scully scenario played out again with his name up in media lights.

Doubt it'll happen, but as always unless there's ink on paper ...

Didn't he label himself as a one club player?

So did Brock McLean. Not saying this to disparage Trenners, but young players say it a lot, perhaps at that young age they haven't been tainted by the club's lack of loyalty.

IIRC McLean left because he was requested to take a pay cut to stay with Melbourne and also because he was more likely to play in a premiership winning side at Carlton.

I doubt either will happen with Trengove.

Both good points, and FWIW i think Trengove will be a Dee for a very long time.

I haven't given up on Morton, yet. There's a quality league footballer lurking somewhere within that young man.

Time's ticking, though.

Hhmmmnn, yeah, it's a bit like that, isn't it. In todays reduced bench, endurence is more important, and height as well. But, so is toughness.

I dont know if i will take much out of this list, i could have written something very similar.... and it states that dates are 09/10.....ect would be the players worth targeting however, times change

The list was created in September. It's basically reports of uncontracted (at the time)players they were considering contacting, so it's going to be a broad and obvious list.

It's confidential GWS info, nonetheless. :)

Wow! Cameron Wood, Chris Mayne, Ben Warren, Lachie Hansen, Easton Wood, Josh Hill.

There's a team of future Brownlow medallists on their wishlist you could build a team around!

These sort of 'non mainstream' sports sites will fill their pages with any kind of drivel that they consider 'an exclusive'

21 posts in, nobody mentions the fact that North is the only side with more names on the list which means GWS rates us as having the 2nd best young gun talent in the comp...too busy whinging I guess... oh and they're right too, all of those 6 will be fantastic players. If you'd throw away Morton now you have some sort of excrement for brains

Hrmmm.

Interesting conclusion to come to.

Not the correct one though.

And Lachie Hansen might be a bit injury prone, but he is a real talent, I'd be happy for him to come to Melbourne.

    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

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol

    EPILOGUE by Whispering Jack

    I sit huddled in near darkness, the only light coming through flickering embers in a damp fireplace, the room in total silence after the thunderstorm died. I wonder if they bothered to restart the game.  No point really. It was over before it started. The team’s five star generals in defence and midfield ruled out of the fray, a few others missing in action against superior enemy firepower and too few left to fly the flag for the field marshal defiantly leading his outnumbered army int
