Hi Guys, for my first ever post I will pass on some inside information. Chris Dawes has no long term medical issues. When injured, he is the most dedicated, determined and professional player in term

Please god do not give up anything more then a 3rd rounder for Dawes. If Martin/Pick 13/Gysberts are on the table here I will have a fit.

The pies will want pick 13 for him no doubt. Definitely overs. 13 & Petterd for Dawes & Goldsack, now we are talking.

I can't see the filth having any interest in Stefan Martin if they've just added Lynch and Tippett to their ranks.

I am very happy with this. I think Dawes will be a good pick up. He will be on the "smaller" contract that he took to stay at the Pies compared to what we were willing to pay last year. So it's not like we are paying out $700 for him. Not to mention we have had Davey, Moloney, etc on big contracts and they havent produced much.

One of my mates spoke directly to Dawes and he said he has struggled as we all know since getting the role as the 2nd ruckman. He said by the time he goes to the forward line he is stuffed and out of breath compared to the previous years when he was just a full forward. At the Dees he wont need to be the 2nd ruckman thanks to Jamar, Mitchy, Martin, Gawn and maybe Grundy if we get him.

If its Martin for Dawes, just hang on to Martin. Please...

It would probably have to be only a pick though because with Lynch and (reportedly) Tippett, their salary cap would be tighter than Johnny Rottens jeans.

I like the idea of getting Dawes. His currency is at its lowest point now and I think would still have a lot of great footy ahead of him. In contrast to Stef Martin whose currency is probably not going to get any higher, and who I can't see turning into a great player (as much as I admire his efforts).

Tim Harrington on Trade Radio gave a VERY diplomatic answer about Dawes that to me seemed to sound like we were after him.

I think we're after anybody that wants to play for us. I would be very disappointed to lose Martin.

Dawes > Martin.

Leigh Brown and Mark Neeld might be just what big Chris needs to return to peak form. Only a year older than Jack Watts.

1.5 million over 4 years. Do it!

Martin is better than Dawes.

hahaaha

yeah Martin is totally better than a 24 year old key forward who kicked a combined 57 goals and took a combined 200 marks in Collingwoods two grand final years

what a joke

Martin is nothing, he has done nothing at AFL level and never will.

Dawes will be the perfect support for Mitch inside forward 50. I hope we land him.

    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.

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. 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)

    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
