Speaking to Garry Lyon at a function was saying his hoping the dees take Petracca, stated he would love to see him in the red and blue and that his in the same mould as Ollie. Then spoke about pick 3 (Frawley Comp) will be on traded in a "Tyson like deal" Gaz said Roos wants more ready made mids.

Well there it is. That's the final straw that tells me we shouldn't get Petracca. If Garry says yes then no it is. Garry who picked our last 2 coaches, Garry "Scully is Judd" Lyon.

Gary has no more idea of who the best junior talent in the land is than most on demonland and his track record is in the red to say the least.

    Is it just me but the prospect of us drafting Petracca as well as Dangerfield (I know long shot etc...) has me salivating at our prospect for 2015 and beyond.

    Two top grade bulls in the centre...

    Yes Please

    We'd have to at least give 2 for danger, so no petracca and danger dream, sorry

    2 & 3 is overs for Danger, exceeds the compo AFC will get in 2015 (pick 8 say) or what every other club could offer. So 3 + player for Danger and pick 2 for Petracca.

    BANG we're back!

    Man, imagine that. Danger back with vince, jones, cross and tyson - that is a very good midfield basis.

    throw in potentially petrecca, viney, salem watts, potentially trenners and toumpas, guys like viv and riley developing could be handy, if not good players at least role players. these guys feeding it into the man child, dawes, peders, kent, howe.

    theres a bit to work with there.

    GWS are just pick 1 whores, they can't help themselves.

    Maybe they'll even hold onto one of their players for more than 3 years for once and try to make a team.

    Have to say GWS have an... interesting recruitment strategy. Just endlessly taking the top draft picks every year by constantly trading themselves into the high end of the draft by tossing out players like Dom Tyson.

    Not sure it'll take them up the ladder very fast, but they've become a treasure trove of talent if you have the picks to trade them.

    Probably Jaksch and get GWS pick 4 back.

    That gives the Saints the tall and could still get McCartin or Wight.

    If you want to have some real dirty thoughts Vibes imagine remarkably:

    1. Frawley and Clark stay, play a full year at the previous best

    2. We trade pick 2 and a Toump for Danger

    3. Trade our third rounder for Labamba (second rounder for Stretch)

    4. Pick of Malceski in the PSD

    FB Frawley Dunn Nev

    HB Malceski McDonald Harry O

    C Watts Danger Viney

    HF Howe Dawes Salem

    FF Hogan Clark JKH

    R: Jamar Jones Tyson

    pine Trenners, Gawn, Cross, Kent, Grimes, Garland and whoever else I have probably forgot

    Now that is touching yourself material!

    Petracca will be a star !!

    But not with us. One way or another we appear to be out of the race.

    Seen both brayshaw and petracca play this year (against each other).

    Very evenly matched and hard to split as both clearance machines with good skills that go forward and kick goals. I slightly preferred brayshaw with his excellent dual sided disposal myself. Time will tell as to who will be the better player but I do wonder how many on here take Damien Barrett approach of having a preference, despite never seeing either play?

    "Wherever I get picked to go I think it's going to be a humbling feeling, and no matter what number you get picked at, you'll be in the same position as everyone. I don't think you should go in there looking to make friends, I think it's about winning the players and coaches over and trying to show them that you want to be there at their club, working really hard and listening to everything you hear and just trying to earn people's respect."

    Hope he comes to the Dees.

    I'm at the draft camp now having a look and wow Petracca is a unit! Has that big backside big leg look and looks very sharp. I'd put some photos up but feel like a creep taking them

    lol. I have a photo of Christian, his friend and my son (2yo) all eating breakfast together at the dinner table with their shirts off (it was summer). He was not a unit 2 years ago, he was skin and bones! How things change.

    Now if I posted that, then it would be creepy!

    • REPORT: Geelong

      I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • POSTGAME: Geelong

      The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.
