Be rapt to get Gaff&Wines they would both be great in our team.?

.

I would love to trade Gawn to Port, for Wines and a 3rd round pick.  

Gaff Sloane in F/A, and trade out Tyson to balance the books.

    And I guess Max will be useless to us if the AFL goes bankrupt. The comparison is ridiculous.

    Just thought i would throw it out there to highlight what I think is an urgent situation to call in our profits, before they drop in value.

    Sell high they did say.

     

    Gawn is limited, and will become more limited as he gets older.  He is too big for today's game, in current form.

     

    6'-6" to 6'-7" is ideal for mobile ruck/followers for the all-round game.  Marking the ball a lot,  is key for us, and crashing packs a must, for our rucks. Maxy id valuable & we need more mobile athletic rucks in his place.

     

    He's 26Yrs-3Mths old, and is more like a 28Yr+  in his legs.   Won't go beyond 30Yrs, in any real form.

    He is dominating today’s game.

    He is in his prime.

    No player improves after 30.

    He won't play after 30, give or take.

    He won't get a game beyond 30, with his knees, and his back will be gone by then.

    He'll be 27Yrs, Pre this coming Christmas.  Time is now, to trade sideways.

     

    Trade Maxxy, to bring in a running mid,,, and cap relief [ Gaff/Sloane ]_  and go balls out for Lynch.  Leaving nothing behind for him. All in.

    Lynch and Weideman, will be a winning combo., with Hogan... and all can swing into the ruck. And all will be strong marks around the ground.

    • 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?
