Gaff was a Dees supporter growing up, what is he going to say, but have we actually enquired

Notice the sudden reappearance of the Hogan article, nobody has mentioned it, to shut down any linking talk

I asked Josh Mahoney a couple of weeks ago, don't have to hide my source, of course he said we are interested in Gaff, like any player

Think they are more interested in getting McDonald x 2, Jetta and Brayshaw tied in first

personally I love this kind of stuff. Jusr remember that If you reveal that source  it will printed in the Sun the next day..

I have a doubt about it though. Mainly because  he's in a premiership contending  team right now AND  if he wins one with the eagles wouldnt it make more sense to him to be chasing $ rather than flags?. Can see him going to the saints if the eagles win this year. 

If he wins a flag this year, he has to ask himself what is the probability of the Weagles going back to back, especially considering Demon trajectory.

On the balance of Pr, I would pull the escape pod and head to Demonland to win 2 in a row

For those that might not be able to read it - that article is a joke.  Nowhere does it actually say that the Eagles are interested in Gus, more that it wonders if the Eagles will chase him as 'revenge' for us chasing Gaff.  There is absolutely nothing to suggest he wants out, no quotes from managers or coaches or anything resembling something new.  It's a headline purely for there for clicks.

Thanks @Wiseblood, @Demonland time to get a vomit button...


If you listen to Angus on a recent MFC podcast there's near zero chance of him leaving.

Yep.

The link they make with the Eagles is the fact one of his brothers plays there.  It's thin at best.

If they get a Demon midfielder it will be Tyson.

I don't think Tyson would leave Melbourne the city. Far more likely to go somewhere like St Kilda or Carlton.

That being said, I don't think he's leaving Melbourne the club either

I think saints might have a crack at Tyson he would fit into there game plan perfectly

He is the type of player we need however he is arguably the softest player in the league. 

Wouldn't want to go all out for him IMO. 

Brenno 

You are contradicting yourself 

We do not need any soft players, regardless of their upside.  We showed that last trade period.

He will if he doesn't have a choice a la Jack Watts.

Kind of reaffirms my stance on his article - Jay Clark is connecting dots that simply aren't there yet.  All the chatter has been about us having the room and that we've looked long term for some time now to ensure we have the space to sign our players and add others.  Seems like he's seen one Brayshaw at the Eagles, looked at the potential of Gaff leaving with Melbourne being interested and gone from there.  

Nothing in it.

Fixed.

Clickbaiting bastards

The Dees will win this year G.F,followed by the next 5. I see a 50's domination all over again. Young talented kids will be "dying" to get into our side.

Let's not over-speculate; it pushes up the price of recruiting astronomically.

If Gaff wants to be a Dee, it is up to him to show it with subtle resolve; if we want him, we could come together with Gaff to support this arrangement/outcome.

With an environment of varied form and injury risks remaining ever-present, any good price is enough if the player wants to occupy a position in an emerging superteam.

It does not need to be the highest price - if that is all Gaff wants, then we really don't need him.

If he is a fair dinkum bloke, and everything points towards that being the case, he will be a Demon on these terms in 2019 and from that, will be much appreciated in a continuous appearance in coming grand finals for the Dees.

And his other brother plays with the other team in Perth.

  • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

  • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

    The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Collingwood

    Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
