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.

    If the price was right ...PSD ?

    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

    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.

    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!

    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.

    He definitely adds something that we don't have, a small crumber with genuine pace.

    Liam Jurrah and Austin Wonaeamirri went all right...until they moved on with their lives.

    Not that it matters, but I should have clarified consistency and longevity.

    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.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?

    • FEATURE: 1925

      A hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.
