He's got a cute bumm.

I'm glad you are enjoying the new look backline.

 

Having the hardest time deciding whether my first born son will be named Dom or Tyson

how about a mix...

Tom or Dyson

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

 

Gee our midfield is looking ok long term. Would love to nab one more GWS kid

provided his name doesn't start with $. :-)

Geez it's going to be scary when we start seeing 100 games next to

Viney

Toumpas

Salem

Tyson

Kent

Kennedy-harris


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'

Haha what a pissa

What a toss.

You're a legend haha

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?

Edited by binman

even the scumbag barrett admitted he was wrong. reckon Edmund had seen Tyson play before the article?

 

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: Essendon

    What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

  • POSTGAME: Essendon

    Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

  • GAMEDAY: Essendon

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?
