As Tingles said and probably knows him best id still take him ahead of Bail and Nicholson but i was very surprised he was delisted. Id happily sign him as a delisted free agent or a rookie for sure.

I'm not surprised. He named his kid "Maverick."

Same reason they'd want to come to Melbourne; game time.

No he doesn't.

kids with attitude problems may be best thru the rookie program?

I agree with you dd but saying he is better than those two does not rate him all that highly

who is this guy?

And i'm not even trying to be funny. I have no idea who he is.

Someone about whom I am certain some posters here, or elsewhere, would have written when first drafted "he will be an absolute gun!"**, and a guy with an interesting name.

**a familiar phrase on this board, used often for the likes of Cale, Maric, Dunn, McKenzie, Blease, Tynan, Taggert etc etc

Could be worth a roll of the dice. Price will be low as not much interest in him at the moment. GC have some very talented midfielders at the moment, so hard to crack in there. Been in the system for a few years so ready to go. Seems a little jaded, so may work to help with extra motivation to prove people wrong, or he might just be a tool.

I must admit, I was keen to get him until I read above about him being a D-head. I don't want to bother with his type.

Same thought

Roos has a No DH policy after all

"Delisted Gold Coast defender Maverick Weller appears likely to find a new home, with two Melbourne clubs showing strong interest in the 21-year-old.

Weller, who can move to any club as a delisted free agent, was one of the inaugural Suns, joining the club as a 17-year-old access selection in 2010."

Hope we're one of them.

He fits our age profile, and need for mids. And Roos is a great mentor for a dh

Great. I hope MFC is the one. Weller excelled against mfc at the g in 2012

Lets get the clubs Tassie boys Garlo, Howe and Robbo to get in his ear.

Get Weller on board and we can once again become the club of destination for people from the Apple Isle.

Weller & Cross come across as Delisted Free Agents. Trade Michie in for a 3rd round pick and get Bugg in the Pre-Season draft and we've gone some way to fixing our midfield depth problem at very little cost.

Definitely should get him. Young, big bodied and talented individual. Sure he did not perform that well at GC however any player who was slightly off in performance was going to get cut from there with the list they had and culls they had to make. Definitely has the talent and build to succeed in the AFL and Paul Roos I believe is the perfect coach for him. Rookie spot for him and make him work his butt off. Remembering he is still only 21 and already has 3 years of AFL experience.

Agree ... but We will need to offer a listed opportunity as he will have other suitors

True well then offer him a 3 year deal with performance/behaviour based clauses and watch him grow under Roos. He is not as bad as people make him out to be through rumours and other BS.

I hope we seriously consider the Mav. Would add hardness and a strong body around the stoppages also can play a tagging role. I remember this bloke being highly rated before the draft. Adds more depth to our midfield.

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the

    GAMEDAY: Rd 15 vs North Melbourne

    It's Game Day and it very well could be the last roll of the dice for the Demon's finals aspirations in 2024. A loss to the bottom side would be another embarrassing moment in a cursed year for the Dees whilst a win could be the spark they need to reignite the fire in the belly.

    THE HUNTER by The Oracle

    Something struck me as I sat on the couch watching the tragedy of North Melbourne’s attempt to beat Collingwood unfold on Sunday afternoon at the MCG.    It was three quarter time, the scoreboard had the Pies on 12.7.79, a respectable 63.16% in terms of goal kicking ratio. Meanwhile, the Roos’ 18.2.110 was off the charts at 90.00% shooting accuracy. I was thinking at the same time of Melbourne’s final score only six days before, a woeful 6.15.51 or 28.57% against Collingwood’s 14.5.89

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t
