It seems to be apparent that Bernie Vince is on the radar for GWS, we must have money in our salary and should look to draft a good midfielder to add to our list.

Crows' fear over Davis speculates the Neil Craig is worried that he could go, but a fresh start in Melbourne for Bernie, could turn our midfield into an elite group.

Is there any other player like him available?

Neil Craig has openly said that Vince is slow. By body moreso than mind and with the increased pace of the game he is getting caught out. Opposition teams have him figured. No thanks. Keep growing our own until we are well and truly IN the finals before we start trading for needs!

Apparently he's lazy too.

We have to many of those players, apologies for the suggestion. I beleive we need a pacy MIDFIELDER and we could have lots of money to hunt for one!

2 years ago Bernie Vince was a top line AFL player, but now cannot get a game in a sub ordinary Crows team..is it because he is not up to it, or is it a rift between him and Neil Craig??

Either way i would be very wary of recruiting him....Only because i think we can do much better than him if we need a midfielder.

What about Boak? Noticed he was mentioned in another thread - he fits into our target age margin (he's 23 this year, younger than Martin and Dunn), quality (unfortunately copping the best tag in an otherwise-terrible Port midfield) and almost certainly would like to move.

There was speculation about Boak last year. He signed a two year contract if my memory serves.

Are you describing Morton??

This isn't a Morton thread but that is not how I would describe Cale.

Clearly Demonlanders haven't watched alot of Bernie Vince....

Would walk into our midfield.

He has had injury issues this season and had rumoured disagreement with the way Neil Craig has handled the team.

Would love Bernie Vince at the dees. Still young!

Melbourne have invested heavily in running players last 3-4 drafts. what we absolutley need is a couple of bigger bodied key positon types. We can't spend 2012 all year hoping Watts and Jurrah can be our talls all year.

Then what is he doing playing in the SANFL?....a rumoured disagreement should be put aside in a professional environment.

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session.

WAYNE WUSSELL'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Rehab: Lever, Spargo, McAdam, Lindsay, Brown Sinnema is excellent by foot and has a decent vertical leap. Windsor is training with the Defenders.

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership.
