Aish for Dawes, they need a forward target. Dawes is a target, not a very good one but they may struggle to get anyone else.

Prestia for pick and Grimes.

This isn't the 90's and Brisbane aren't Fremantle.

Sure, if we can get away with it. Aish is a footballers footballer.

 

I'd be really happy if Aish was our second target midfielder.

Wouldn't be as happy if he was our first target, ahead of the likes of Prestia or Coniglio or Sloane.

Is it too greedy to want Aish AND Prestia?? Or do we not have enough to give to get both?

I want both too. I don't think it's too greedy at all. Aish is struggling to cement his place at Brisbane. He shouldn't be our first target. We need to go hard for A graders/cusp of A grade at the end of this year. Prestia and Coniglio are the go for mine too.

As you note, it's all about whether we have enough to get them both.

Money of trade value?

Definitely trade value. For each, we'd need a high pick and a very very good player, or at the very least a good player who meets a desperate need.

Do GCS or Brisbane need a versatile reliable defender, a specie merchant or a tall forward with iron hands???

 

We do not look at EFC players.

Das ist verbotten !!

Heffernan, Moorcroft :-((((

So you wouod have passed on Judd as well...hmmm ^_^

Certainly pass on him now.

Heffernan, Moorcroft :-((((

Certainly pass on him now.

I passed on him about 5 or 6 years back, when he was doing his accounting literature tour. we couldn't afford him then, & we d=certainly don't want him now.

I would have passed on him, if i happened to pass him by on the street, as well... :mad: well maybe not, but you get my gist ;)


Would anyone consider Brendon Mateara? I have always rated him and i just feel that with Kent going down we have really missed the zip and explosiveness that he provides. Kicked 27 goals in 2013 so atleast we know he can kick goals.

Not really. Decent finisher, but doesn't provide anything else. Think he only has eyes on the goals as well so unless he kicks it, all you're getting is a turnover.

Gone... m jones, terlich, mckenzie, fitzpatrick, bail & hunt (not developed).

retire... jamar

Thats 7 spots.

draft 4 (Harley Balic),22 (Sam Weideman),38 (Blake Hardwick),trade in Dean Towers (Sydney for pick 56), free agent Leuenberger and rookie upgrade for Harmes and Vandenburg. King stays for yr3 as interstate rookie.

We should approach Zaha with a nice offer, surely he can be enticed out of that moral [censored] hole that is the drugs

hell yes to Matera

Gifted but bad attitude

Well someone should have been held accountable for not picking up Oxley as it cost us the game. Roos said the players didn't follow instructions so it seems he has been let off IF he was the spare but that's irrelevant as to wether we should target Aish or not.

You keep getting gazumped you idiot. Just stfu now.

Gifted but bad attitude

Along with Bennell, apparently one of the GCS players for whom football gets in the way of having a good time.

Same could've been said about Garlett.

Could be but Garlett's attitude doesn't affect his training and getting his body prepared


I don't think there are any issues with Garlett's attitude. I may be wrong but the only thing I remember him being involved in off field is the recent indecent where he was the one who was attacked, he seems pretty committed to his family.

You keep getting gazumped you idiot. Just stfu now.

Pathetic post mate. 23 posts in and your already attacking fellow supporters. Go snipe somewhere else mate.

Edited by olisik

Iv been saying we should trade Watts for years but last week seeing him play changed the way I think about him.

I think he is the biggest game changer our team has. Some of the things he did last week to turn the swing of the game were amazing, no one else in our team has that IQ and talent.

No one else in our team can swing a game around like Watts can when he is on

3617 posts later and that's the best you got moron. Been reading his and your tripe for ages,,and you have the gall to complain about potshots dh? You and your PF mate potshot from behind keyboards all the time mate. Do ya feel tough boys? Well, do ya?


Thanks you two. You can continue your conversation via private messages. They're of no interest to anyone else.

Now, please stay on topic.

Nah worries. You just let these dudes smash blokes mate. Great work.

As to those paying out on Dawes I think it's a bit harsh, the guy works hard and definitely gave us something when we wernt doing too well under the Neeld regime.

That said I think he does have value and now would be a good time to see if we could get anything back for him in a younger player which fits our age demographic better.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

    It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

    The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

    The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem   

    Salem proved to be a valuable contributor as a reliable and solid one-on-one medium-sized defender in what was undoubtedly his most impressive season since the premiership year. He remains a highly capable rebounding option for the Demons as he approaches his 200th game at the club.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    Following an injury-interrupted start to the season, McVee struggled to maintain the standard he established in 2025 as he pursued an expanded role within the team structure. He remained a firm fan favourite and the club had hoped to negotiate a new contract with the former rookie selection from Western Australia, whose partner, Lily Johnson, plays for Melbourne's AFLW side. Those hopes were dashed when he expressed his desire to return to his home state and play for Fremantle. Like all players who have worn the red and blue and are leaving this year, we wish him well in the future.
