#zanotti reporting that he will sign for Sydney.  Personally I'm not the fazed.

 

Has been doing the twitter rounds this afternoon. Apparently Jones and Reid to re-sign long term

 

I would see him as an 7.5/10 player.   A good foot soldier but not a star.

IF the price is right, yes.  But not a must.

If not Zac, who then?

We need a mid with line breaking speed. Outside run

J Kelly?

Wouldn't be in our best 22 even if we did get him.

Would just be depth.


Personally I would have been over the moon if we'd landed Zac. Bernie and Jordan in their last year or 2 .....we need some mids. 

Salem or Zac Jones is a tough choice but I reckon Zac could be as good as his big brother in a few years injury free . He has great handball skills is quick tough and a good kick and above all else super competitive. All though Nath has carried a disfunctional team -who knows how resilient people are until they have done it as has our great captain . 

If Salem can get some continuity he could be anything .

Take the red n blue glasses off mate. Zac would be best 22 and has 8-10 years of best 22 ahead of him at swans. His high draft pick and the reported 4 year deal is reflective of how he is valued.

LOL. Last offseason Zanotti said he was 99% sure Rockliff was going to be traded to Melbourne in a deal involving Lynden Dunn. I private messaged him pestering him about where he'd gotten his sources from and he said he'd make an apology post if he was wrong. Got blocked a few days later.

If you'd just held off around 90seconds.... :)

But wait I thought he was certain to be a demon! Didn't his body language clearly state he wanted to play with his brother?

Just having a laugh, knowing how loyal Nathan it's hardly surprising to find out his younger brother is the same.

Heard on the radio this morning that he's warming to playing with us next year.

Heard from someone who claimed to have a very good source that he has already committed to Saints. 

For all I know that source could be the X of X's X's X X X.... When I said that to him he got very adamant. As most people do with such an impeccable source.

melbourne the location or melbourne the club?

 

Zac is a good NQR player or as Jack Dyer would have said, a good ordinary footballer. Not a criticism.Would not want to give up too much for him.

Would definitely have a role to play in our best 22, but he is far from a star or match winner.

Will be interesting to see what his trade value is...

  • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

  • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

    The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Collingwood

    Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
