get him.

His body is in a bad place. Not worth the gamble for us, we're already trying to deal with an out of form, injured and over priced key forward. I doubt we'll replace him with another one.

    Don't know exactly tbh, but a mate who is friends with a former North assistant coach said that's what's coming from the club.

    If his body is shot then no thanks. Cant afford to have another tmac on the list

    He's a long straight leading style of forward. Would we be able to hit him on the chest anyways?

    Disqualified on grounds of hairdo 

    His hair is a work of art. I think we recruit the hair to play at full forward.

    Would you do a Angus Brayshaw for Ben Brown straight swap?

    I’d look at doing a tmac straight swap, both on big coin both not playing both could do with a fresh start

    Yeah, this has merit.

    He is a proven goal kicker... but a one trick pony.  Unless you can hit him on the chest on a lead, he is next to useless, which we saw this year.

    Would he be an upgrade on someone like Mitch Brown?  Probably, but I don't think he is worth pursuing, nor would he fit with our game style.

    For that reason I wouldn't be chasing him.

    I would definitely take him. Would take the pressure off weid and allow him to play second fiddle. 
     

    Browns form this season has been abysmal but he can play.  
     

    One condition would be that he has to cut his side show bob hair style.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front.  They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

    • 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.
