How does Weidemann compre to a Tyrone Vickery type?

 

yeah...and he'll plss off back to his fathers filth at the first chance. Don't bother

Maybe not if we are lining up for our fourth flag on the trot. Unlike his grandpa he could actually help us achieve it. I for one would just love the irony. We need to make him and other just want to stay.

If Weideman, Francis and Curnow are gone we simply take the next best talent available. I don't want us to take the next best tall simply because we want a tall.

Of course that's assuming that those 3 are rated within the top 7.

id love it too

Let's not rely on it.

I don't like the idea of taking a tall for the sake of it. I hope we target best available regardless of size. We can get big men in via free agency when needed


Lets get the engine sorted....i get it

Like Pederson, Dawes and Clarke! I'd rather develop our own like Hogan.

he started his coming of age in the GF againt the Filth in 2011. That makes it at the end of his 5th AFL year. He was also a big body right from the start.

Like Watts, Molan or Cook?

Very different footy department than those who took cook, watts & molan oli. We have a development team now.....

At the moment we have about 1/6th of Collingwood's team potentially playing for us. With Weideman it would become over a quarter.

No such thing as the Demonobbles is there?


I really wish people would stop rubbishing poor Luke Molan. There was absolutely nothing wrong with the decision to take him. His career was destroyed by terrible luck and perhaps a lack of self-preservation. He never lacked for talent, application or aggression. Nobody could have predicted the succession of impact injuries he suffered.

On Weideman, I'd be thrilled to land either he or Curnow at 7. I think either one of them would be a great get for the club. A big, reasonably athletic forward with some mongrel and aggro is just what we need.

Like Watts, Molan or Cook?

Are you seriously comparing these three with Hogan (who has three years in our system, two under Roos)?

Ah the Weideman name.

Some of us here are old enough to remember Murray. A pest of the highest order. Could he play. When i was a kid i remember only really one aspect about Collingwood. The stab kick. It seemed like they ALL could kick. But this is an adult trying to remember.

Murray Weideman was a player. He was BLOODY good.

My first pair of footy boots were Ron Barassi 'specials' . In hindsight they were like a workman's boot with wooden stops. Yes..wooden.

But i always consider my first real sporting footy boots to be a pair of "White Diamonds".... more the thing they were Murray Weideman signature White Diamonds. I loved those boots..and even as a kid. .as a diehard Demon i still begrudgingly respected Weideman.

It worries me that he'd want to go home. I'll trust the footy dept (now)

The DNA suggests hed be something.

They were cork surely? How the [censored] old are you bb?

I was comparing them to Dawes Pederson and Clark.

Was it hard to understand that?


56..they were wooden BBO

and they were replaced twice. The last time with those new fangled placky ones !!

56!!! I'm claiming seniority. No way they were wooden .... had to be cork. Did you start drinking at an early age bb?

Last time we took a tall to fill a need was L Cook.......

Is this a joke? Most recruiters almost fell off their chair when we called Molan's name. He was rated no where near pick 9. A quick google will tell you callum twomey's 2001 phantom draft had him at 26. Yes he had terrible luck but he was also a terrible selection. Don't defend the indefensible.

  • 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.

    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.
