Yes on a one year contract at average wage circa $350k 

We don’t need him as I think his best is in the past. But again he’s got the skill and experience to be valuable. 

If I was Simon Goodwin, I would still pickup the phone if his manager rang.

FWIW he grew up a Demons supporter. My kids and I used to go to Demons' matches at the G with him, his younger brother and mother regularly in the late 90s/early 2000s.

How's that for quality name dropping?

But it's a no from me.

Pretty sure we tried to get him over at the end of 2018 but he declined. 

No thanks.

I may have this wrong but it was rumoured that he was considering coming across however it fell through largely because he wanted to be an inside mid rather than a winger.

Who gives a [censored] about him now. 
 

I was more intrigued by where my mind was at when I posted this very topic 4 plus years ago - cheers for the bump anyways’

Just goes to prove so many of us are ‘trigger happy’ or just have NFI about this competition and how long it takes to build a Premiership team. 
 

We are certainly in good hands imo.

A dual All Australian who inexplicably is playing poorly in a poor side at the moment .Can run all day and is an elite accumulator. Don't believe we have any prospect in getting him but would be a bonus replacement for Hibberd and Melksham .

He’s gassed. At least 3 years too late. 
He would have no chance at a starting 22 position with our current team.

He'd be at Casey.

Should I tell Gaff to 'Go do his left eye in hot cockie droppings'?

[censored] off. Had his chance to come across and be part of something special but guilted himself into sticking with WCE after getting himself suspended belting Andrew Brayshaw and sitting out their 2018 flag success. He's past it now, imagine how [censored] he'd be in 2023. He can rot in Perth.

WCE have to look to off load players as they have Salary cap issues.

Not a good place, well and truly past their best with some big contracts and no kids coming through.

Getting Tim Kelly was meant to keep them in contention.

It will be a very slow rebuild.

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
