I love these comments! Every time he is written off he comes back better than ever. 

It’s a well known career ending type of injury and he’s in the wrong side of 30. He may come back but will he be able run , jump and mark as before? 
 

We would be silly to not look for adding to the forward arsenal - Mitch Brown will probably be delisted so if anything to allow TMac to rehabilitate properly and not feel rushed.

Think  Hardeman. 

Hardeman was a great footballer, McStay is a good honest battler.

But is he on the move?

Would highly doubt it.  His value probably only gone up since he moved to backline recently.  There are some overpaid players at GWS, so there is a possibility i guess!


Mcstay is currently our most likely target — would be fitted in without losing anything other than fringe ie Hunt, Brown Retirement & Melksham moving on. 
 

Amon will be tougher but word is we are easily his pref destination esp with Brayshaw moving to HB so watch this space — will depend on what occurs but if we somehow lose Jackson then the space is there if we keep him we will need to move on all aforementioned and likely 1 more like Baker as well.

well he's on the wrong side of 29 then.. you get my point nonetheless.

Is that all! He's the oldest 29 yo I've ever seen 😂

 

He’s a battler and would be nothing more than depth in our team. You wouldn’t bother considering him if he wasn’t a free agent and therefore a freebie not requiring a trade. Talk of 600k is laughable. His output is basically the same as Weid, yet he’s older and will cost more.

Pass unless he comes across for below average wage, which is obviously unlikely.

Someone else paying his salary.

No thanks!

But don’t we need LJ, Gus and Clarry cap room?

I’m not saying he would come to us per se just referring to the idea he would stay in Brisbane to play with a flag contender

I hope this kid is available at pick 40. Is exactly what our "2017" premiership team will need.

Your prediction of a premiership in 2017 was not far off.  In 2013 I was thinking we'll win the premiership in 2052.

As far as I could see he Didn’t do much on Thursday

This is spot on TA.

He looked as if he wasnt really interested in Thursday nights game.

Showed naught that would make you think he'd be a massive pick up for the deees.

I'm just going to dig this up to play devils advocate and ask a question of demonlanders:

Would you prefer to 1 up the Pies and do a Swans-Buddy move by chasing McStay, Instead of going after Grundy? And looking elsewhere for a backup replacement ruck.

Pro's: Actual forward craft and experience.  Unrestricted free agent ie no cost - Keep our 2 first round picks

Cons: Costly if 600k-700k a year so its a big risk, Not a viable long term backup ruck option

 

I eagerly await your response, and facepalms.

McStay is a far better fit than Grundy, but he'll probably want a 4 year deal on $600k-$700. So it's a no for McStay, and a no for Grundy.

I heard the Brisbane CEO on radio a few weeks back and he mentioned that Dan’s girlfriend is from Brisbane, and he has a bunch of properties in Brisbane.

I’d be really surprised if he left. 

Might want to start building his Melbourne property portfolio 😉

McStay has about as much presence as BBB. SFA.

We really need to bring in some toughness and mongrel to the forward line.

Well, maybe that means he’s on the wrong side of 30, because too immature 😂

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.
