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

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

Posted

Selwood - for his leadership , stats and courage

Ablett - ball magnet , leadership .

Franklin - Freak , matchwinner .


Posted

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

Posted

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

Posted

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.

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

    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. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan.

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.

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)

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
