Assuming there is a possibility that Rivers is out what is the deal with Richmond's Grimes? I ask because the brothers and whole family are MAD Melbourne tragics and I wonder whether a trade could be possible??

I am Jack's sponsor and I bounced it off him casually at a function. He said it would be great to have his brother with the Dees but couldn't see it happening.

I'd like to think so, as I wanted us to take the punt on him in the draft. I thought back then that we would be going thru the restructure of our defence back before he came into draft contention.

He seems the honest type to build upon. I doubt the Tiges would want to deal now.

Seriously can't believe the amount of negativity there was towards the option of Drafting young Dylan a couple of years back - there were howls of he's no good he's the dud little brother and we're sick of getting the NQR brother, skip forward 2 years and now people want him badly, oh and similar garbage was touted about Butcher and now we want him... I can't keep up with all changeing of minds

Richmond will not let him go, period. He has been excellent for them this year and will be a gun for them.

Should be keeping an eye on the younger ones though, good footballing pedigree! Did they all follow the Dees? (Oh yes I'm opening that can of worms!)

I was also disappointed when we let him go to Richmond late in the draft. Alwyn and Aaron Davey would have been better players in the same team too.

Never understood why we let Grimes and Davey go elsewhere.

Has it completely slipped through to the keeper that another Grimes brother is in this year's draft?

Just remind us all again (before I slash what is left of my wrists yet again) just where did Dylan go in the draft and what superstar did we pick before him?

All Richmond supporters love him and he is good but he has been injured both years since his draft. I would love to get him but i think Jack would need to put in a good sell even though he was a demon as a kid ect

All the boys are good footballers.

In fact the younger ones are better than the older ones.

So just imagine how good number 5 will be in 6 years.

Posted

Fits the criteria of 'driven to be the best football he can be'.

Would be a useful addition, in practical terms.

I'd the thrilled if we got him, and surely with the sheer volume of movement out of our club, whether with handshakes or arse-kickings on the way out, we could find an equivalent offer for Richmond?

The younger ones are better than the older ones.

Like the Chappells, the Waughs and the Danihers? (Trevor, who remembers, and Chris)

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
