The bloke is way too tentative in just about all aspects of his professional life it seems.

Unable to fully commit to the Eagles, extremely timid throughout the entirety of the whole king hit fiasco, and seemingly ambivalent with his disposals.

Even with his good kicking skills, he is a player you don't tend to notice that much in games (rightly or wrongly - bar that brain fade). He makes Garland look like the most outgoing footballer there ever was. 

Honestly, what a load of bs

    Do you think he'd push ANB out of that gut running role, DD?

    Meh

    A great link player and a good wingman (I won't discredit his AA's) 

    But he's not a game changer and I don't think I've seen him kick over 45m before 

    I don't think he was ever going to leave too

    We still need to recruit more speed.   Forget Gaffe.

    I don't think i've seen him lay more than 2 tackles in a game either.

    The way we've seen Langdon and Tomlinson play is exactly the reason some of us were so keen on Gaff. He fills the same role, and after 2018 it was very clear we needed someone in that role. We don't need him anymore.

    Gaff would have cost us the same pay,  as the two of Langdon and Tominson together.

    Absolutely. But he was recognized as one of the best in the league, plus these two werent available at the time. 

    It may be that we had been having conversations with both and thought we were a chance of landing both, thus focused our recruitment on May instead (who we thought would go to Collingwood at the end of 2019).

    I was only commenting on why many of us wanted us to look closely at him.

    I agree,  'dnx'.  As I did  for a few seasons, until he had such high tickets on himself.

    I think we are ahead.

    We got 2 for the price of 1. Both wings have been filled so we can look at other areas of need, or re-sign a couple of our guns who might have walked for better coin elsewhere.

    Sometimes you have a win, even when it looks like you lost.

    This list is average other than Jeremy Cameron.

    Cameron would be a gigantic get, but there's no chance. 

    He'll stay at GWS. 

    Trade for need/speed, I think for 2020.?

    Draft for CHB and another tall forward.

    We need to draft KP talls now(2020) & next season,  for 3 or 4Yrs down the track.  As replacements for May & tMac, etc.

    Are you Jeremy Cameron’s Mum? An aside, I drove through Dartmoor last week, not much there.

    Just can't see him leaving GWS - they'll finish top 4 and he could win Coleman again. 

    Ah well rather him stay there then go to the Saints, Essendon or some other wasted club.

    • 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.
