What is this nonsense that Damien Barrett is spouting about Lynden Dunn being signed by GWS tomorrow as an unrestricted free agent? It is being reported in the Off Season Facebook site.

Oh, noes!

It does sound like nonsense. Dunn doesn't fit the age profile GWS are going for at the moment (i.e. young kids and grizzled vets). Rare is the middle-aged player on the GWS list. Outside of Giles, I don't think there is anybody on their list between 24 and 28. Steve Clifton is 24 but he's a monty to be delisted. It would be a strange decision for GWS to go for Dunn at this point in time.

Also, I thought Dunn played well enough to get a new contract and I hope that he signs on soon. I guess MFC are waiting to see what happens with other trade/FA movements before doing anything.

Every time I see a new reply to this thread I get excited that its a new list of rumours from Nudge, only to be slightly dissappointed (still some great posts).....Coincidentally sorry to anyone that my post has just made this happen to.

Is it bad that all i could think of was that we could get some decent compo for him, Moloney and Rivers?

Stringer anyone?

It takes two to tango.

Remember, it was MFC that decided not to finalise contract negotiations with several of its players.

If we get bitten on the bum as a result, we can't complain.

I don't think we would leave any meaningful fish, swimming on the line.

GWS putting all picks bar no.1 on the table:

http://www.perthnow....5-1226496603126

What's our best offer for pick 2?

Ricky Petterd + Lynden Dunn + Matthew Bate

Thought I'd get that one out of the way before some dumbarse suggests it as a legitimate trade option

I'd happily trade Sylvia for pick 2, but GWS would probably laugh in our faces.

Opinions on the net worth of Colin Garland & Stef Martin?

I wouldn't trade col garland, ou of everyone on the list he most likley to play the jarred rivers role if he goes to the cats

So, am I correct in saying that nothing has happened today (in terms of MFC list changes that is)?

I'd suggest that it would only leave very small teeth marks, and most certainly wouldn't break the skin.

Funny thing is we will probably get the player we would take at 2 at 4 anyway.

Offer up Pick 20 + Gysberts for pick 13. I'd use pick 13 to snag Tim Membrey in the Draft. *(Just thinking out loud). Ready made mid/fwd 189cm, highly rated.

*Won't happen. Having to rely on Membrey being available at that pick is too greater risk given he's rated to go between 10-20 (or 7-20). Food for thought for pick 13 anyway.

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
