Not an A grader (at the moment) but, fmd, I'll take any midfielder at the moment!

Will be an A grader.

Averaging 21 touches in his 2nd season, and would comfortably be our 2nd besat midfielder behind N Jones.

Huge chance here for the Dees to land a great young midfielder and a legitimate ball magnet

    Yep throw an offer too good to refuse! Tough hard at it midfielder that would add alot to our side. Put watts for a trade option aswell.

    He can play, gets the footy and his disposal's good.

    Make him an offer he can't refuse.

    If he refuses it, somebody else overpays.

    But what if Melbourne is the one overpaying? :P Wouldn't "an offer he can't refuse" technically be more than what others offer?

    Definitely one we should try hard to get, as well as Anthony Miles he never gets any game time and is pretty decent ball winner. After watching the Swans dismantle the Crows today I would love for us to go for one of their fringe players such as Bird just to bring that culture that they have. Just an incredible side who are so tough that is exactly what I want the Dees to be one day.

    Luke Parker?

    Hardly a fringe player.

    Wishful thinking. Cousins son.

    Question is "why" come to Melbourne apart from Money or for fringe players to "get a game".

    Targets as at 8 June:

    - Dylan Shiel (GWS) 3years $$$

    - Taylor Adams (GWS) 3years $$$

    Fringe:

    - Maverick Weller (Suns)

    - Liam Anthony (Kangas)

    - Mitch Hallahan (Hawks)

    - Jarryd Lyons (Crows)

    - Aiden Riley (Crows)

    - Matthew Jaensch (Crows)

    In a heart beat.

    We should be offering lots of coin on a front ended contract. I don't care if we pay overs the kid can play and would be in our starting mids.

    Given he can walk, I'd encourage that (ie psd), but id also be willing to offer trade bait to secure him. It may help get GWS to push him towards us rather than other suitors.

    Exactly. If nothing else, we can use our salary cap space to put artificial pressure on other club's salary cap space. ;) Eventually, we'll shake a few from the tree.

    And yes, if we can grab some quality midfielders, please... please! Do it, any chance we get.

    Question first is would he want to come to us.

    For an extra 10k I doubt it but for 100k or more, more than hee would get elsewhere he would have to think strongly about it.

    Personally I'd rather us land a player like Adams who will impact next year and still have a 10 year career than a draftee we need to develop who won't help us improve next year.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
