It’s like comparing Hogan and TMac.

Both have different strenghts, but compliment each other.

"You're really good at footy, Jesse".

"You're really good at footy too, Tom".

Sunday's game was the start only for Brayshaw. I didn't like his pre season games and at the time wondered if he would live up to early expectations. Unlike Oliver and Viney, Brayshaw, Salem and Petracca have only shown fleeting glimpses of their talent.

Worth a double like... hilarious ???


Reminiscent of the Steve Waugh vs Mark Waugh debate - one of them you want to watch for the rest of your life whilst the other is (or will hopefully be) the one you want to bat for your life.

I was pleased/impressed that from the start of Sunday's game, Angus stood Jack Steven - the only possible candidate for an 'A Grade' midfielder at the Saints

To think that the Brayshaw thread three weeks ago was screaming for him to be traded at fire-sale prices...

We're a fickle bunch.

What is the purpose of this thread? We have two of the best prospective genuine A-grade stars of the game and posters are splitting hairs about kicking ability, tank. Their respective abilities complement each other and the team.

It's unseemly and demeaning for our boys and the club. Posters on this thread should show some respect, be grateful for our good fortune and do all to laud both Gus and Tracc.

Beelzebub got it right. They're different. Happy to have both. +20 from me.

Dead right as Beezle suggested: Happy to have both, don't want to lose one of the two. Different skills, different games to play.

All sentiments based upon fickle performances at the team level. 

Hopefully one becomes another Danger and the other becomes a Judd.

Hopefully one becomes Brayshaw and one becomes Petracca. Who needs more.

Leave them alone.

Might not have both at seasons end... gotta re sign yet and Superfooty is saying he will wait and see before committing. 


Petracca will be a better player once he has his dogs shot in a paddock somewhere.

 Brayshaw not signing a contract, which is being reported on the herald sun website. 

I have heard he is looking around.

Yes before he was bitten by his dog he had career high disposal count, what difference 2 week make.

Where? Media would be all over it if true

I have been told this from someone I know.  Vague answer I know but may not be as straight forward as we were all expecting. 

Strange he’d be looking as club has handled him well through concussion issues and now he’s finding form and gelling with max in the middle. Unless there’s more to it, but I don’t think I believe it. Other clubs may be interested in him but not the other way imo, but I don’t know

North will be all over Brayshaw like a rash.

They have a lot of room in their  cap and a first round pick on offer.

They could offer him 650k plus and we would have to match it.

I’m with you, I can’t understand why he would want to leave. 

The only thing I can think of was him not playing early on in the season and Money

He's trying to increase the $$ in his next contract. Understandable, given his asking price would be pretty low at the moment.

  • REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

  • CASEY: Essendon

    Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

  • PREGAME: Gold Coast

    The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

    The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
