forget Dayne Beams. We had our chance, in fact ask Bailey & Prendergast why not !!!

We should look at in 2012 draft

1) Two quality mids + Viney - in 1st round (like Ben Kennedy, Jimmy Toumpas, and Viney)

2) a skilled small running half back (like Oliver Wines)

3) and please please please a crumbing forward (like Dayle Gartlett)

+ Rookies - like Adam Cockie (WCE/Sandringham), Lachlan Ferguson (Collegians), Luke Blackwell (Claremont)

Ollie Wines isn't a small running HBF...

Posted (edited)

If we cant give this guy $600K a year for 4 or 5 years there is something wrong!!

Absolute gun! And he is for hire.

Moneyball players after we get him.

500k for beams would be a great get for the MFC

Viney,Beams,Stringer and jones sounds like a good start to me.

That is a midfield going forward, would dominate that draft if it happens

Posted (edited)

Where will we get him???

Pick 3 (Stringer), Pick 4 (Dayne Beams), Pick 13 (best small forward), Pick 22 (Viney)

Morton to GWS for 4th round pick & pass on Viney, Petterd & Spencer to GC for 3rd round pick & pass on Viney

3rd round pick + Bennell to WC for Koby Stevens the Moneyball player we are after.

Essentially we get Dayne Beams & Pick 13 for Tom Scully. Win/Win Melbourne - Lose/Lose$$$ Giants

No use playing hard ball with the Pies in offering Pick 13. Pick 4 very fair!!! Keep Eddie happy.

I am very confident Beams will be a Demon!

Saw on Channel 7 this morning Harry O'Brien, Travis Cloke, Sharrod Wellingham, and Dayne Beams all out of contract at seasons end. They are struggling to afford Cloke, O'Brien will stay but i would love Beams or Wellingham at MFC next year. Probably Beams cuz, he can play both inside mid or outside mid and i'm sure Neeld would to. I would give up pick 12 and a player for him.

Pick 4 & Gysberts for Beams & Wellingham anyone???

Got a gut feel Gysberts may have a injury riddled career. Sorry to put you up for trade Gys!

Pick 12 or pick 12 + player. Do not give up pick 4 for Beams. That would leave say 3. Viney, 4. Toumpas?, 12. Beams.

Plus I also think a fit Gysberts is our best mid coming through.

No Gys will be a star...has amazingly quick and accurate hands.

Would rather him in the middle than moloney.

Adam Cockie is a solid Unit. Byronesque. Did a couple of nice things.

This looks like a "dee-tention" thread.

I wouldn't pi$$ on Beams if he was on fire.

I would actually stop supporting this club if we recruited that human stain.

Fortunately, there is little chance of that happening.

Gysberts will be our best midfielder. Ridiculous.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year.
