So I was looking through the free agents list,which obviously has some great players like Dusty & Fyfe available.

I think it is very unlikely we will be chasing after either of those two, as I'm sure we are more interested in developing our own versions in Oliver (Fyfe) & Petracca (Martin).

However, one that did catch my eye was Luke Breust, who seems to be struggling a bit this season. 

Don't get me wrong, I realise he seems to be a bit of a downhill skier at times. But he is a genuinely good downhill skier who could greatly improve our forward pressure.

Interested to hear people's thoughts?

Not the worst thought. Will at the very least keep the likes of Kent, Harmes, JKH, Dion Johnstone etc honest.

If he didn't cost much (by way of chewing up too much of the salary cap).

He would at least be another avenue to goal. Though i rate Jeffy more highly than Breust.

Breust would be a very addition to our side. I feel as though majority of our goals don't come easy where as Breust always seems to pop up and slot them with ease.

I'd do it for one reason: to see how Hawthorn likes being raided for its players rather than preying on other clubs.

I hate him but yes.

We should get him.

He is a good kick.

We have about 3 of them so one more is always welcome.

Salem,Watts ,Hibberd and Garlett are perhaps the only other reasonable kickers.

Exactly.

In fact, close demonland down entirely.

It's pointless.

 

It's up to the moderators. So your view is irrelevant. But I hope they don't close it because I like to spend my time here reading your irrelevant views and pointing out their irrelevance from my relevant view-point which is that it's up to the moderators.

Of course you would take Luke Breust.   Anyone that says otherwise is kidding themselves.

Yes if we couldn't get how about Liam Shiels could be a handy addition 

Watched him closely the past few weeks. Turnover merchant. I don't remember him being that way...

What about chasing Gunston, the Dorks will be looking for trade options at the end of the year.

I'm kidding myself.

 

If not for Josh Caddy, this guy would be the most overrated player in the comp full stop.

Loses his feet; plays for frees; out the back all the time.

 

We don't need downhill skiers on 600k.

Cyril and Isaac Smith are the only Hawthorn players I'd be interested in.

Yep, definitely need more small forwards who go missing when the going gets tough. Soon we'll have a whole list full of them. Next.

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
