Oh did we? Guess we cant recruit him now!, A bunch of demonlanders dont like the idea.

You guess right. In case you missed the last 20 odd years, light, outside, undersized opportunists who go missing when the heat is on have seen us lose pretty much every game in which hard-nosed, big-bodied, head-over-the-ball competitive animals were needed to stop us getting monstered.

Nahas appears to have fallen out of favour with the coach, like Ball did with Lyon and more recently Savage with Clarkson.

Had kicked 97 goals from 77 games coming into this season and he's 25.

I'd be happy with getting him as a Delisted FA.

I don't know about Savage falling out with Clarkson, I don't see any evidence that he did, but I do know that Ball, fallen out or not was, is and always will be much better footballer than Nahas.

We need a small forward..we just do

Nahas can't get a game with the tigers because he is a greedy little ego-brat. can't see his team-mates for the goal-posts.

Agreed - forward pocket isn't just a position for rotating midfielders.

i think a few coaches might disagree with this especially this season as the rotation cap comes in

wouldn't be surprised if it is further reduced in coming years

forward flankers and pockets will be increasingly used as midfield rotations

some specialist forwards (non KPF) might survive but they will become rarer

Not worthy of pick 9 and unlikely to be available at pick 40, how exactly would the "gamble on Garlett" happen?

If we can get him at pick 40, great! And its a gamble on attitude. If not available, oh well!

If you want Nahas, even as delisted FA, then you have have list space to fit him in and therefore be prepared to give up pick 57 or Jetta or Nicholson for him.

I'm not sure I'd even give up Nicholson for him. Nahas is a complete spud. How this has gotten to 4 pages is amazing.

Not certain this is a criticism Wretched. Robbo and Brad Green for example weren't noted for giving the ball off if they were within a taxi trip of the goals. Milne and Harvey likewise ( even though I hate both those rats) did likewise. In the past Kevin Bartlett was called Hungry - it goes with the territory.

Ridiculous comment... hope we take him just to p!ss you off. I for one think he would be a good get if he costs us nothing.

Someone delete this please?

No point talking about it anymore.

Actually we quite often revisit threads like this one when said player carves us up and we passed on an opportunity to sign them for next to nothing.

Complete Spud???

In his best year 2012 (22 games) he averaged 1.6 goals a game from and average of 13 disposals around 36.8 goals for the year (23 rounds), well above our best foward for last year and definately better than any of the existing small forward options mentioned. He made 83 tackles averaging 3.8 a game. Both of these stats are incidently higher than Jack Kings. He is definately not a spud and crumbing around our talls kicking 36 goals for a late draft pick in my opinion would be a good thing.

There is obviously a reason King is preferred at the Tiges but I back in Roos to make him the player we need and I recon he would be a great pick up for the Dees.

Clearly missed the earlier post where he joined North.

Nahas might have been handy but I'd rather develop an extra midfielder each week. Plus I think we really need 3 draft picks in the ND.

I wouldn't be using King as the benchmark for anything, the Tiges are going nowhere until he is moved on.

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi
