#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.

    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.

    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.

    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...

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?

        • Thanks
