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.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Geelong

      It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
