Camerons form has been iffy this year but I quite forgot that he kicked 60 plus goals last year. A big investment but with his talent it may turn out to be a cheapie

It's a no-brainer, mate. $1 mill is good value for Cameron. Edited by AdamFarr

Exactly, players to target... You can target a player a year out.

It doesn't say players to recruit for 2015.

I'm sorry I made the suggestion.

2 years ago It would've been a longshot that Collingwood move Thomas and Shaw on.

Pendles probably is that player Collingwood build their side around, but I like your suggestion.

Collingwood appear to be stagnant, it would be worth at least asking the question to Pendles.

You're making too much sense here AoB, he won't understand. He is captain of Collingwood... and he is going to walk out on them, for us, in a few years time for possibly a bit more cash. It all makes such brilliant sense....

if anything, at the age of 28 he is more likely to move than ever - if through a trade where collingwood is offered an early pick.

unlikely through free agency, collingwood have too much money and I'm sure eddy is exercising all the possible loop holes.

bit rough shooting down the bloke that suggested to target him.

Im sure once pendles contract is nearing its end, many clubs will at least suss out the situation.

I don't think pendles is entirely untouchable.

abletts family was geelong through and through, biggest name the club has ever seen, and he left for money.

i don't think he will be on our radar however.

Teams have been in contact with chip for over 12 months, because of free agency this is now what's normal, if a team feels they are going to lose a player because they can't match an offer they may look at a good deal through trading rather than losing the player for nothing.

Teams will try and get Nathan Jones, he's a free agent next year and far more likely to stay on but he is too good a player to not have a dig

Anyways

I hope we have a serious look at a skillful half back, our turnovers from that part of the game are seriously costing us

The Cameron whispers getting louder, few people suggesting Demons very interested. Cant say if offer been made or how far its down the track though.

Brett Anderson from Inside footy says it's Cameron.

Please be true.

If GrandNewFlag posts in here saying we are chance to land Cameron, its as good as done. His sources are always spot on

I think Brett Anderson is on SEN, so it was probably said on the radio and not an article :(

If anyone can remember when, we could check out the podcast.

Adam, our need is more depth of quality across our best 22, moreso than taking one gun player.

imo Roosty would want to get a 2 for 1 again, a 'patton & a shiel',,, a 'coniglio & tomlinson' sort of thing. or a player + a pick, sort of trade.

the marketing dept would want the gun player tho.

Nothing on his twitter feed about Cameron or the MFC

Was part of a twitter conversation. Anderson followed up on the whisper in Scott Gullan’s Hun article and confirmed that the rumour concerns Melbourne’s interest in Jeremy Cameron.

Brett is one of the good journos going around. His specialty is un18s and the Draft but still would hear rumours going around the traps. Is a Dees man also to my knowledge?

Posted

Scott pendelbury?

Bit of a long shot but money talks

Interesting you would mention him.

He signed a four year deal with the Pies but his contract before that was for 1 year only - apparently that put him into the restricted FA bracket. He turned down a deal ( according to reports) - massive dollars from GWS. I thought the signing of the one year contract was the most opportunistic play from a player I have seen in a long while.

We question loyalties on here but the Pendlebury play was a money grabber of the highest order. And then they made him captain....

(don;t get me wrong - one of silkiest players to pull on boots - and hard as nails as well)

Posted

Rumour has it? He probably got his information from Demonland.

I raised the Hun article you referenced a day or so ago with him, and he followed up on it. So in a sense you're probably right.

Posted (edited)

yeah its most likely garbage

I would bet my bottom dollar it is not garbage.

It is not garbage that our recruiting team would be scouring every team and seeing who we could possibly dislodge from an opposition club to improve our list.

I would be very hesitant to suggest though, that it is going to actually happen.

I would suggest we throw out a whole heap of bait on fishing line and it's just a matter of who bites. After they have bitten, it is a matter to see if we can get the deal done.

I reckon you're right, we have a huge amount of cap space to throw around, we will look at anyone and everyone who could add something to the team and pick the best we can get of that group

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields.

Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
