I reckon we should throw $700k, maybe 800k just get this kid.

Yep MOA get him make him an offer hard to refuse, get in his agents ear now and tell him we want him name the price. Him, Viney & another fringe player from another list (like Kennedy from Hawks to Swans) targets for next season

I've been saying on here we should get him since last year. He's a proven midfield gun with grunt and pace, everything we need in a midfielder at this point in time. He is the prototype player going forward, and we could build an entire team around him as our marquee player. I'd pay him a million a year and trade first rounders to get him as he is a proven gun. People over-rate draft picks. No point picking up potential guns if we can't develop them. I'd take a proven gun over a draft pick any day, even if it was Pick 1. Time to start trading for established players and hope we can net some like we did Mitch Clark.

Problem for us now though is Adelaide are playing well now and he's less likely to leave. He's a leader there, and probably their next captain. Why leave that to go from top to bottom? And that is the problem we will face when trying to recruit anyone at the end of this year.

I thought the same of Clark. Everyone has a price and SOME players like a challenge. it would not actually be that hard to sell Melbourne. Down now, but elite coaching and sports support, new young players with potential, jack Viney coming soon, pain now for future gain and all that. What we need to do is stay focused and united at the club. And to make some hard decisions on pkayers now that will benefit our future.

And so have I.

And a few have said last year, he's no good!

I agree!

Cloke will be staying at the Pies anyway I would think. He aint goin anywhere!

You would'nt think Dangerfield would want want to leave the Crows the way they are travelling.

BUT! 800K and go home factor could be tempting.

We need too trade for 3 or 4 experienced established players.

Dangerfield, Jon Griffin, Koby Stevens, FA Goddard.

The exit of Moloney, Jamar, Sylvia, Davey should free up some more cash.

We could trade Pick 2 for Danger?

yep couldnt agree more offer him 800k a year with a big chunk front loaded for next year say 1.6 mill if he agrees then work out a deal with adelaide example being our second compo pick 12ish and sylvia if that fails would give up our 1st compo pick depending where we finish

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    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
