Three Player Wish List

Featured Replies

Posted

Just a fun exercise, but say you had carte blanch to sign three players from rival clubs on 4 year deals. Anyone at all ... which three would you bring to the Demons? Think list management and flag-tilt.

Mine?

1. Patrick Dangerfield

2. Lance Franklin

3. David Swallow

 

Franklin - Would love to see him make magic in a Demon jumper

Pendles - Competition for Dunn for stupid facial hair

Selwood - Is brilliant, tough and inspirational and I wouldn't get grumpy every time he manufactured an over the shoulder tackle on himself

Hart , Matthews , Skilton .

 

1) Trent Cotchin - on his way to being the best mid in the comp

2) Scott Pendlebury - currently the best mid in the comp

3) Travis Cloke - with the above 2 n our midfield along with what we have and Mitch Clark would be very hard to beat

Selwood - for his leadership , stats and courage

Ablett - ball magnet , leadership .

Franklin - Freak , matchwinner .


Franklin

Selwood

Bartell

 

A Gaff - Outside speed, classy and young.

B Matera - Crumber we are crying out for, also young.

T Cotchin - On his way to brownlow, a bit older to help shape our kids


M. Murphy best mid in the comp next year IMO

J. Patton Best young gun full forward and to get back at GWS

A. Goodes Leadership,Skills very under rated in melbourne

Simon Black is a great player but is 33

Seriously, why would you pay top dollars for a 33 yo

You might if you were in a premiership window and needed more outside class but that would be the only reason

Who underrates him?

Franklin

Ablett

Robert Murphy (need his composure and maturity - he's a genuine thinking footballer)

Selwood would be ok, but how long will he last...as was mooted by Cam Mooney on AFL360.

Who said anything about top dollars? He is a star of the game that the kids can learn off for two years and he would cost nothing - he is an UFA. In terms of salary - he wouldn't be excessive.

Franklin

Pendlebury

Strength all over the ground....


Hmm. A few selections here are going to be over the hill big time by the end of their four years (eg, Black, Goodes, Bartel). I agree they are all absolute champions, but not good value on four year contracts.

My four: Cotchin, Murphy and Hawkins

This look familiar?:

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
