Thanks for posting that @Demonland. I caught up on the last 2 pages and then read your most recent one. Very disappointing. :P

    Always nice to dream I guess but maybe one day those exceptional 'free agent' players will want to come to our footy club.

    Thinking about the difference Langdon made, it’s exciting to imagine what 2 wingers will do for us

    gaff is one of most overrated players in the league in my eyes. He plays in a stats era thst exaggerates his impact. He gets most of his touches on the half back flank and does nothing with his disposals. He can't break lines or defend.

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

    I like him he would have been amazing as a free agent. He has produced highly and consistently for many years and his tackles regularly. It's not a problem at all.

    Moot point. He was never coming to us.

    No brilliance, just on gut feel I don’t agree. 

    I think Kelly is an impostor.


    Bump.

    I think his time at West Coast so far makes it hard to argue I was wrong.

    Maybe. I don’t think he’d be half as good in most other sides. I think he’s a cat, and that he benefits heavily from the attention opposition sides put into other Geelong players.

    Zing.

    And what about Gaff, mate? I'd still have him if he came cheaply.

    Kelly has become a more damaging player than Gaff and is several years younger.

    If I was an Eagles supporter I would swap the two in a heartbeat.

    I’m awaiting your brilliance. 

    Ed: upon review of stats on footywire, there’s not a lot in it.

    Kelly vs Gaff

    Interesting 'Mach'...I think Kelly has been ok but not a patch on what he looked like with the Cats.

    Maybe there is a reason he slipped through a few drafts.

    I'm also not as big a fan as others of the GWS variety Kelly.

    If he's really worth the hype (and cash) then he should stand up as a match winner tonight.

    Kelly was starting to show the form he was brought in for earlier in the year before succumbing to injury.

    Cheap as in he pays us?  He moves slower than I do when getting up to pay the bar bill.

    Big difference from being the third or 4th midfielder in a team to have to step up to being the No 1 midfielder.  WCE only had a handful of games this year with Yeo/Kelly/Shuey all playing.

    They have got big issues at the Eagles, no cap space and not much youth.  

    Gaff has always been an old fashion seagull he has gotten worse over the past 2 years.

    I know the stats didn’t back it up, but the gut feel was just that he wasn’t that good. 
     

    As you said, GWS Kelly likewise. Has put in some bloody soft efforts at times tonight. Give me a Langdon and a weak side Brayshaw any day.

    I though this thread died a year ago.

    Gaff had his chance and blew it.

    Besides, Narrm are the only premiership threat for the next couple of years and we dont need him. ( 😁 )

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

    • PREGAME: West Coast

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
