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.

    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. ( 😁 )

    Of course. How is that related to Gaff in any way though?

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
