Keep digging, the same Shuey that missed 5 games? That really impacted Gaff didn't it?

At least chose Naitinui if you want to show you have any knowledge of football.

Nah, sorry don't buy that Saty,

-  Saty if the Demons were chasing Redden

As obnoxious as he can be, Saty is entitled to his opinion.

Only thing that counts against you Sat, is that you cannot find a negative thing to say about any Dees player, but cant find much good to say about a bloke who gets 20 bazillion touches every week, and displays traits that are an identified weakness in our list.

BANG!!!!!

(walks away...)

With Slone re-committing, the big cash from Norf, Saints and Hawks will focus on Gaff and Lynch. Hope we've got big space in our cap. I'm concerned we still have a couple of dees yet to put pen to paper

All reports seem to indicate we can re-sign Gus etc and fit Gaff in. 

 

I wonder who North and Saints are going to convince to re-sign next?   please offer a Mil for Gus and he will sign next week

Maybe uber $ isn't just what GAGF is after. Maybe it's more / a premiership. I mean if the weagles win this year he might stay on or think on the balance of probability they're unlikely to go Back to Back so might up stumps. So, of the potentials - north saints and dees - who is going to offer the best combo of $ and opportunity. Dees.

My next door neighbour is a Gaff and a relative . Her side of the Gaff family are rusted on Tigers

.... and apparently coming off the stunning logic that refers to St Kilda as being the only club into Gaff, and therefore why would he leave the WCE because they are closer to a flag than the Saints ?

Realise that Tim is a Saints supporter for a start, I haven't found him to be WA biased. A bit of a screw loose at times...yeah.

...but I guess we wait and see on Gaff.

I would be looking for the next player about to make his mark or not getting opportunity and targeting them rather than or in conjunction with a big fish type player anyway. I'm sure we are...Yeo & Dockerty were taken out of Brisbane and became pretty decent players. Maybe there is one at GC, I know the AFL wouldn't be happy but it's not our job to prop up GC.

The Tiges have some small forwards maybe worth a shot.

Weaknesses identified by who?

The experts on here

David King

I don't deny he gets a bazilllion touches, but it is what he does with them, he goes missing when the heat is on

With the three i mentioned all playing well last week, it gave him the opportunity to rack up the touches

His inside work has only appeared this year and is inconsistent

He reminds me of Priddis with his accumulating but not hurting, how Priddis won a Brownlow still amazes me

I have an opinion on every player on the Melbourne list, but there is enough vitriol and denigration of their playing abilities already on this forum

As you can see, apart from yourself, the ones who replied are those that require validation, apart from the one that just seems to explode from the excitement these days

As I said if the club decides to sign Golden Balls, that's ok with me,  I have no say in it

Hopefully Yeo, Redden and Shuey all stayas well, Gaff draws his powers from them.

If he stays I am sure we have a nice backup plan.

Or Maybe Gaff was the backup plan?   Josh Mahoney is very good at this stuff.


The same Tim Gossage who said Sloane was gone and two years ago Hogan was a lock to go home. 

Edited by Ethan Tremblay

Gossage said just two weeks ago that Adam Cerra from Fremantle was very gettable at the end of the year, even though contracted. Fremantle and Cerra's manager all came out soon afterwards and said Cerra was looking to extend his contract. Gossage was made to look a right dill.

I think Hogan could be the missing pawn to our side. If we could find a suitable trade to bring in 2 quality wingers, that would make us a formidable side. Richmond have shown the best model for a forward line.

That doesn't mean that model for a forward line will last forever.  Things change constantly.  In two years time sides might be screaming out for 2 key forwards as one team wins the flag on the back of it.  No need to trade out someone as talented as Hogan to suit another clubs style of football.

I fail to see how it could be, considering you've made it clear you don't rate him and are now using childish, 12 year old names (Golden Balls) when discussing him.   That all goes out the window instantly the moment we sign him?  That doesn't make sense to me.

  • REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

  • CASEY: Essendon

    Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

  • PREGAME: Gold Coast

    The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

    The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
