If the AFL website article is correct, he is either staying or coming to us. Other clubs seem to be out of the picture.

Yeah, how dare he rack up important touches and hit targets further down the field.  Just the player we don't need...

On a serious note, there was piece of play in that third term that summed up how good he is.  He got the ball on the half back flank, ran and took two bounces before hitting up Cripps 50 metres away to help set up a goal. It was great to watch.  He would look superb in the red and blue.

Saw an article that said according to the author, he was staying or coming to the Dees.

saty's allowed to have an opinion right? just like you're allowed to have an opinion? ...why the childish sarcasm?

True.  Saty will tell you that until he is blue in the face.

Your opinion can be wrong, though, and it's not as if Gaff has been up and down this year.  He's having a sensational year and everyone, bar one, agrees.  It just seems as though he's sticking to his opinion out of stubbornness more so than actually believing Gaff is nothing but an accumulator.  That, plus he also lied a few times when he said Gaff had never won a B&F, then when he was corrected on that claimed that he has Eagles supporter friends who didn't rate him that highly the year he won it... which made no sense considering he said he'd never won one.

He hasn't exactly covered himself in glory on this topic.

CARLTON, North Melbourne and St Kilda should resist the temptation to bid for older or second-tier midfielders if attempts to lure gun free agent Andrew Gaff are unsuccessful. 

They should instead put their chequebooks away and turn their attention to next year’s crop of out-of-contract and free agent stars, which includes some of the biggest names in the game.     

The Blues, Roos and Saints have been desperate to add class to their midfield groups for some time.     

All three clubs tried in vain to lure Josh Kelly home from Greater Western Sydney last year, while the Kangaroos also unsuccessfully dangled a $10 million, seven-year free agency offer at Richmond star Dustin Martin.     

This year all three were linked with Jordan De Goey – the Roos again leading the way with a $5 million, five-year offer and the Saints not far behind them – before the explosive forward/midfielder re-signed with Collingwood last Sunday for two years.     

All three remain in the race for Gaff, but face stiff competition from Melbourne, which shapes as his most likely new home, and Essendon.     

The hard-running Eagle is also every chance to resist a move home to Victoria given West Coast looks well placed to go deep into the finals in the next few seasons.     

If the 26-year-old re-signs with the Eagles – or if he enters free agency and signs with the Demons –  Carlton, North and St Kilda should resist the temptation to snare another midfielder in this year's market.

Its part of a wider story on the bottom teams chasing a 'big fish'.

He needs to slow down a tad. His price is surely rising, what would he be worth?

he's free as an rfa

being a log-time dees supporter he will probably take $500 - lol

no idea actually but over $650 i'd guess

As much as we gave to Lever but over 5. Media have said opening price will need to be $4 million over 5.

We need more than just Gaff this upcoming FA/ Trade/ Draft season.

We do, we certainly do.

we've got bradtke next year - all 205cm

a wee but tall,  to become a dangerous rover.

41 disposals and 2 goals, including an important one to seal the win. Gun.

Lets hope we can afford him!

Yes and let a few of our “list cloggers” go.

 

How often does a player of his calibre remain unsigned this late into the season?

Very good chance that hes already committed to us.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
