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. ( 😁 )

    • NON-MFC: Round 06

      The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • 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.
