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???

    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

    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.

    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

  • Quote

    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.

    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

    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.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.
