I think that has been earmarked already.

You must find this time of year interesting Red. :)

    If we are interested in him (and i can't see any reason why we wouldn't) we should be using the NT links to our full advantage in trying to convince him to come to us.

    Since we have not been involved in September, over the last 10 years or so, this has become a favourite time of the year for me, with all the speculating, not to mention fighting, going on here on Demonland.

    Let's get Neville Jetta in front of him. This kid's got some terrific traits. Skill, good overhead, good left foot kick, has pace and loves to tackle. Terrific character as well. Ticks all of the boxes.

    Has had some bad luck with injury, but has shown plenty of talent.

    It would depend on the cost obviously, but I think we'd be better off with targeting Whitecross as a FA anyway, and keeping focus on Bugg & Melksham.

    Would be very happy to get the above three and Kennedy & Anderson though.

    i was thinking more along the lines of your background and experience. Youd have good eyes to read the nature of the circus (imho)

    If he's not getting a game with Hawthorn then surely they couldnt ask more than a 3rd round pick.

    If he's not getting a game with the Hawks, it makes me wonder why it's been reported that he's potentially going to head to the Eagles for 'greater opportunities.'

    It defies logic to leave the top team to get more opportunities at the second top team.

    A bottom 8 club is where I'd be looking..

    If we're not happy giving a pick for a guy that can't break into the Hawthorn side why wouldn't we go hard after Suckling who gets a game every week, is the best kick in the comp and would cost nothing?

    Malceski is far better than Suckling and look how much he struggled this year (prior to his injury especially)

    I envisage a similar thing happening if Suckling were to come to the dees

    I agree. He isn't the type we need.

    I reckon he'll go alright with the Dogs though.

    Very high on Anderson. I'd love to see him in red and blue. Would add something to the side, no doubt. He has class.

    Has Anderson actually nominated a club yet which seems to be the "in" thing to do?

    Because Suckling is probably the only running player who will go from Hawthorn's best 22 and he's in competition with Langford and Hartung for that spot.

    At West Coast you could put him in the best 22 almost immediately and take out either Hutchings or Hill. Plus he'd be ahead of the grand final emergencies in McGinnity and Scott Selwood (who's gone).

    As a traded in player West Coast can all but guarantee him a spot in the team without upsetting their current players, where as Hawthorn have to stay loyal to the current order of things and go by form.

    Of course opportunities is almost always code for cash!

    He should take whichever damn club will give him 22 games a year provided he works his butt off.

    Otherwise he's another spoiled, entitled GenY brat, and I don't want him.

    Of all the young Hawks not getting a game he is the one I would target. Has some speed and likes the tough stuff. Ticks plenty of boxes for mine, I would expect we have made an approach

  • Quote

    We need to be going hard after this guy, exactly the type of player and situation we should be targeting.

    Hey Chook chook in Perth have u heard anything about this dude?

    Cheers

    I must admit to knowing little about him

    Stats, for what they are worth.........averages just 9.7 disposals over his 10 games. 179 cm, 79 kgm, so not a "typical Roos mid".

    Also, I bet 17 clubs will sit down with Hawthorn during the daily routine roundtable discussions this week and "show interest" in Anderson.

    The real question has no answer - if an agreeable trade can be done for both parties.

    • WHAT’S NEXT? by The Oracle

      What’s next for a beleagured Melbourne Football Club down in form and confidence, facing  intense criticism and disapproval over some underwhelming recent performances and in the midst of a four game losing streak? Why, it’s Adelaide which boasts the best percentage in the AFL and has won six of its last seven games. The Crows are hot and not only that, the game is at the Adelaide Oval; yet another away fixture and the third in a row at a venue outside of Victoria. One of the problems the Demons have these days is that they rarely have the luxury of true home ground advantage, something they have enjoyed just once since mid April.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

    • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.
