Anyone seen the Lobb deal?

We should have got 19 but oh well.

If it is true that he sounded us out about a trade, May is exactly the type of bloke we need. Should be totally invested, unlike the other bloke who chose to leave. He also fills a need and comes ready-made and in his prime. Factor in KK who could be an insta-winger if his health issues are sorted, and we have added depth as well.

These 2 want success with us whereas Hogan didn't care enough to stay.  

Thats a win as far as im concerned. 

 

Welcome to the Dees Mr May I call you Steve ?

It's a shame Lever will miss a bit at the start of the season, otherwise we'd be spruiking for 4 separate All-Australian prospects in our defence in 2019.

Lever. May. Jetta. Hibberd.

Meanwhile, when do we play Fremantle?

Because you'd bank as a certainty that Hogan and May will line up on eachother. We've got nobody else who could match up on the likes of Hogan. Which I daresay is right on the whole point of why we got May.

 


@jnrmac we might have fixed up our back arc a bit I suspect..esp with Lever coming back in ;)

Awfully Sunny here in Melbourne...

Well we better win a flag in the next few years cause at 27 May's only got a few good years left.

Agree and exactly what our backline needs, will also help take Oscars, Hibbos and Levers game to another level.

Hibbo and Lever should go up a level. Oscar down a level to  Casey

Hes gonna crush some skulls.

Welcome Skullcrusher.

Add Salem to that backline as well.  It's looking very, very good.

His pedigree suggests he has some definite 'mongrel' about him . Hopefully that can be positively channeled as controlled aggression on field. Attack the opposition offensively from the fullback position all the way downfield.

This is the part is part I don't agree with.

The footy department clearly does. 

We are not winning flags with Frost. 

Whos the Melbourne moron supporter who just rang trade radio??

Called Joel Smith Jordan Smith..

What a [censored].

Don't love the trade. KK was pretty much free so it's pick 6 for May. Would've preferred to swap pick 23 up to a higher pick in that deal as well. Anyway.

Love the player though. Big. Angry. Physical. Skilled. Proper key defender.

Brian Lake played his first game for Hawthorn as a 31 year old.

Played in 3 flags.

 

A 5 year deal seems a bit long.  Hopefully he doesn't drop off too much before it finishes.

5 year deal jeebus. Takes him to 32 on huge money no doubt. This is the kind of player we should get as a free agent.

  • POSTGAME: Essendon

    Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

  • GAMEDAY: Essendon

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
