    Can you please edit your post to read $550k. I've heard it from a very unreliable source Gaff is an avid DL reader and we don't want him getting over inflated ideas.

    As you all know, he's definitely worth $2M per annum.

    Ha! Ha! I see what you did there even if I don't know how. I see it but I don't believe it. 

    Andrew when you read this I just want you to know I didn't write that. You are only worth $500 and be grateful for playing for the team you grew up worshipping like all of us but we don't get the honour of playing for it like you will. Sooo lucky.

    Thank God for that. I was worried you were going to quote some unreliable source like a friend of a friend's friend or someone who knows someone who knows a family member.

    This going to the team you followed is not a trend in the AFL, just ask Juddy, Buddy and Prestia.

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

    Very good chance that hes already committed to us.

    It would be nice to be considered (the MFC) as the destination team of choice for players of a particular calibre.

    Geez I hate the expression ‘cooked’ when it’s applied to footballers.

    There’s something not quite right about it.

    Whilst I’d like to see Gaff in the red and the blue, I don’t see why doesn’t Goodwin throw Jayden Hunt on a wing if he’s not liking him in defence. He definitely has outside run. In spades.

     

    Fully agree on Jayden Hunt - maybe he can develop some more skills for this role in the next few weeks/months. He does need to be able to apply his speed with a change of direction. In a straight line, he's very fast. A capacity to weave reliably, to blind turn or to combine 'eyes up' scanning to teammates with that speed would be phenomenally potent.Could be the next Stan Alves if that was the case and located on the wing with 2-way running from HBF to HFF or spots in-between. He already has Alves' kicking aptitudes and grunt speed.

    Poor disposal, only runs in straight lines and often gets caught for running too far. He can fix 2 and 3 but I don't think his disposal will ever be as good as Gaffs.

    ooh, disagree Werri.

    Why do you say that?   I'd prefer Hannebury,,, unless you know something I don't?

    Inside, slow and injury prone. Hannebery is someone we don't need we need outside run and carry like Gaff not Hannebery he is cooked.

    So, if we trade out Tyson, and Oli were to get hurt, we need inside ability.

    We shouldn't maintain the list that skinny,,, that we have no cover. 

    I think Hannebury can be very handy,,, and with Tyson on the outer, and Jones running on fumes. We would lack class inside, in those circumstances.

    And we aren't as strong inside, as we like to think we are.  We're strong, but not the strongest.  We are amongst the other good inside mid-fields.

     

    Yes.... we need outside run, but we need speeeed, more than any other run.

     

    If we can guarantee we win the clearances,,, and get the ball out to our quick's, we will win way more than lose.  We do not want to pay too much Lira to any one player.    Unless a DShiel or JKelly bobs up.

    Why would we want Clarry to be injured for. 

    Main players: Oliver, Brayshaw, Viney, Jones, Harmes, Petracca, Neal-Bullen, Fritsch, Stretch

    Fringe: Tyson, Maynard, Vandenberg, Baker, Bugg, Hannan, Kennedy Harris

    We have enough players to cover for injury.

    If we don't have injuries Tyson and\or Hannebery play in the reserves, what a waste.

    inside mids, in-unders... Oliver, Viney, Jones, Harmes,,,,,, Brayshaw, Petracca, Neal-Bullen,

    I would say of these boys, the first 4 are the real coalface players, and the others are opportunistic insiders.

    I think I see where your viewing things from.... we differ on what we call inside players (in-unders)..... I think, we only have 4 of what I would call in-unders in our B-22.

    The others I would term, as just inside mids.

     

    Now...  no-one wants injuries, but they do happen.  And we need cover.  and we need to get more talented.

    Hannebury is a yes for me; unless he's murdered an underworld figure in the past 6 months.

    Just admit you were wrong I won't think any less of you.

    No opinion is right or wrong, it is an opinion

    Not sure which bit you don't get

    You only have to read the game day and post match to see differing opinions on the same player

    It is only a certain type of person that requires validation that their opinion is the correct one and others are wrong

    • REPORT: Geelong

      I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • POSTGAME: Geelong

      The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.
