Jordan Lewis would be sensational for our young on-ball brigade for 1-2 years. Seen as an inside mid but has a beautiful kick, can kick goals, seems to have space in traffic (like Pendles) yet isn't fast.

Lewis has always intensely annoyed me . But all that would be forgotten if he joined the dees.

As you say he is a bit slow, which given we need some pace, is not ideal but most of all we need good ball users and in particular terrific kicks. With our game plan (well all i guess all to be fair) elite kicks are critical. Being a lefty would also assist and i have no doubt that we have followed the hawks' lead by looking to recruit lefties.

    Now there's a club who's midfield can't take the loss of a player like Gibbs.

    I would take Langford in a heartbeat, especially as we should get him at a fairly cheap price.

    Hopefully the Hawks have good short-term memory and look after us given we did the same for them when they acquired Fitzy...(yes, that is sarcasm).

    Langford no better than ANB

    He's contracted until the end of 2019. Not sure what it will take, Carlton will want something like Adelaide's first pick (13 I believe) and a player, maybe McGovern.

    Does that give us a chance of beating them in 2017?

    Melbourne has left Etihad Stadium after meetings with a number of clubs, including the Brisbane Lions and Essendon today. 

    There was no deal completed to secure Michael Hibberd from the Bombers, while the Lions made inquiries about defender Lynden Dunn.

    Demons football manager Josh Mahoney said forward Chris Dawes did not attract any interest on the opening day of the NAB AFL Trade Period.

    It'd make things a lot clearer if coverage of movements (especially on radio) used 'Victoria' instead of 'Melbourne, the city', and just used 'Melbourne' for the FC.

    'X player interested in a move to Victoria' is clear. 'X player interested in a move to Melbourne' just confuses people.

    Considering the constant speculation surrounding Mitchell moving to Hawthorn, you'd think a comment like "Mitchell is moving to Melbourne" is pretty easy to decipher.

    Unless of course you've been living under a rock for the entirety of 2016.

    Smart move by Gibbs, can't see Carlton playing finals any time soon and Adelaide would be a chance for top 4 with him

    Do not rate Langford at all. Played one good game in the Grand Final against Sydney, other than that wouldn't really improve our list at all.

    I'm guessing Ess are waiting to see where out 2nd rounder ends up before the argy bargy begins over Hibberd.

    it could end up being in the low 30s.

    Like every other deal Essendrug has ever done they will string it out till the last in an effort to get the Maximum.

    Bit harsh. I was half asleep, but I thought for a moment that was what they meant too.

    And now Deledio has asked to be traded to the Cats...

    Seriously, Richmond and their players seem to love making themselves look silly, coming out publicly three times in the last 2 weeks and rubbishing rumours he was leaving. 

    straight swap for Motlop?

    Doesn't seem to be .. Richmond apparently has no interest in Motlop.

    and a better chance without him!!!!    

     

    The cost / benefit ratio of deal may not be that productive

    Yes,  Our 2nd rounder this year is likely to end up being a pick well past 30 when free agency and academy/fatherson selections are factored in.

    They want his salary out of their cap, so that won't happen.

    • PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Way back in March we contemplated the possibility of a Demon resurgence after Simon Goodwin’s summer of love. Many issues at the club had seemingly been addressed, key players were returning from injury and a brand new day was about to dawn. We imagined the coach pulling a rabbit out of a hat. The team would roar up the charts, push aside every opponent and make its way to a Grand Final ending in ultimate triumph with Goody and Max holding the premiership cup aloft under a shower of red and blue ticker tape.

    • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

      The final game of the 2025 Season is finally upon us and the Demons may have an opportunity to spoil the Magpies Top 4 aspirations when they face them on Friday Night. Who comes in and who goes out?
