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

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)

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

  • AFLW REPORT: St. Kilda

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
