    In all the excitement Jack Viney is slipping under the Radar, along with Nathan Jones.

    I wrote to that moron Edmund on Twitter two weeks ago, you can see his reply below. He also mentioned my tweet in a podcast and said "Don't shoot the messenger"...you can listen further to his dumb explanation at about 30 mins in this weeks Herald Sun podcast. Typical journo taking no responsibility for a ridiculous story. The key to it is that, as Roos said, GWS will do ok out of it too but these journos don't seem to understand that. Plenty of trades that are win/win.

    .@SammyHeraldSun clearly the nameless recruiters you used for your article on the @DomTyson29 trade know their stuff #wenttooearly #noidea

    1. @LukeyBuzz I wonder if you say they went too early, what makes you think you're not?

    2. @SammyHeraldSun where did I say that the Dees won the trade? Speak to your sources now and see if they still think 'it's going to be nasty'

    Take the GWS Dom Tyson, add a new environment; an injury free run; Paul Roos, George Stone and a touch of Mark Jamar and you have what we see today ie. a budding star with a heap of upside. I love what Dom has achieved to date, but it's the footballer that he might become that has me salivating.

    I think Roos is being tempered and even downplaying the value we've got from the Tyson/Salem for Kelly deal (plus other bits), so as to enable us to negotiate another deal at the end of this year.

    If GWS reckon they were stiffed they will resist dealing with us again... so best be quiet about it.

    I think he is a kid and the season will catch up with him soon.

    But the promise is so grand if he can continue on his current path.

    I don't think Tyson or Polec will stop this season.

    Both players have blown the season apart, many traded them out of supercoach thinking they'd reached their limit - but they are getting better.

    I think Dom Tyson will just keep going now.

    He's played 24 games if he can hold this all year it will be massive

    Keeps his form like this and he will be a smoky All Australian.

    One thing that bugs me is the hype around Kelly, watching him I never felt he was that exciting, he wasn't clearly better than Salem or Freemans best,

    I still feel Scharenberg or KoloJashni were better prospects as well

    liked the look of Aish but felt he was too much like Toumpas

    Freeman in my opinion has a ridiculous amount of upside. I feel as if he plays like Dangerfield, being explosive and a tough player.

    I do agree though that Kolodjashni is a better prospect than Kelly.

    But Salem is majestic, he is like Yze, just all class

    the big knock on freeman is he can have one great game and 4 bad ones after that, he's so up and down, Salem is going to get you 25 really good touches week in week out

    Kelly has great running ability and abit of class and good footy genes, but he isn't that special, he certainly isn't in the class of Jaeger, Viney or Wines imo

    and I consider Doms current form better than any of those three by a distance.

    That's gold GM. Two weeks ago, great get. You should follow up now with a tweet to him with Roosy's quotes (which by the by they replayed on FC last night).

    I still reckon Edmund simply made the quotes up because seriously what recruiter would make such a big a call so early?

    Dees were drafting Billings if we kept Pick 2. That is fact...Makes the whole argument redundant.

    I don't think this is an issue. If they lost out on the deal they may think they will win the next one. We did not force them to trade , they wanted to. I think both clubs are willing to trade with each other, that is good, they would appear to have plenty of players wanting to move back home. What sensible person would choose to live in Western Sydney. (Scully - I rest my case)

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • 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?
