I think Fifty-5 was having a laugh MD.

Why would Longer leave a team where he's 2nd in line behind one of the best half dozen rucks in the comp to a team where he'll be 2nd in line behind the best in the comp.

And for the record, Longer can't play forward.

Who says he can't play forward, he's just young & putting on weight.  A good mark, great leap, & is mobile.  He can learn.   He is behind some senior rucks there, he would be number 2 with us.

    Because he's shown zero ability to do so at either AFL or VFL level so far.

    He spent periods of time forward in the Casey v Sandringham game at Casey Fields this year with zero impact. Ask any Saints fan what they think of his forward craft.

    Longer as a forward is what Dawes is as a ruck.

    I think he'd be more valuable to us than the pick we'd get for him

    I agree. He was far from our worst yesterday, particularly considering how often the ball went down there. Not currently the flavour of the month which is more of the problem than his actual form.

    "Im sick of running in the preseason"..... well, that will guarantee his exit.  If he wants to prolong his career he will have to run, run and run some more in the preseason.  

    Apart from Demonland, I wonder who are the 'haters'??

    Demons' Dunn to weigh up AFL future, possible NFL career

    Strong words from Dunn: 'Lynden Dunn has vowed to "prove the haters wrong" and play on at AFL level for another three or four years...'

    Tbh I haven't ween much in the media that would make him think there are a lot of 'haters' out there.  I doubt he reads demonland so does he mean people at the club?

    Not good form really.

    Well, I say good on him for wanting to prove whoever hes got a gripe with wrong. Think he is in a similar position to Brian Lake at the Bulldogs. He is a keep for mine unless he is part of a good deal.

    Its one thing wanting to prove people wrong its another advertising it to the world - doubt that would impress other suitors. 

    As for getting a good deal for him - that interview just sent his value down, down, down: bit of a backhander to mfc; he doesn't like preseason running (explains why he has been overweight all year); shanked 8 'barrells' yesterday (even if he hit them sweetly, were they in the game plan or was he just being selfish and lazy)...

    With that attitude he hardly provides on or off field leadership to our young players.  We will do well to get a 3rd round pick - worth it to get a list spot and salary cap space from his departure.

    Good comparison. There'll be plenty of interest for him.

    Given he's contracted we could maybe wait till the trade is finalized.

    He'll be good for the Pies, but we have to continue to find someone better going with Frost and Oscar. Saving some coin not a bad idea either.

  • Quote

    Would love it to be for pick 47 but will probably be for 65 and 83 or something like that

  • Quote

    Random fact: he was the first player who decided to sign a new contract with the Dee's when he could have left as a FA

  • Quote

    If we can get 47, trade 29, 57, 68 and 47 to GWS for pick 15 (more points)

    47 for Dunn and 57 would be our best outcome I think

    But agree more likely 65 or even 83.

    Brisbane have nothing between 22 and 78 to offer for Frost.  We might end up with that 78.

    If we could get a deal like that, imagine the outrage for Hawks fans when they see Dunn has more value than Lewis

    Thanks Dunny.

     

    Still remember that booming kick outside 50 that you kicked against the swannies all those years ago.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    • 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.
