Weid will go to Collingwood, Lynch to us....simplez

Why would we give Weid away, who is under contract, for a 28 year old?  Nothing 'simplez' about it.  It's silly.

I don’t want him at Melbourne at all. 

But if he did come I’d want a camera trained on Tex the moment he is told that Lynch is buggering off to the Dees. Actually you may as well tell him about Sloane at the same time.

No. Weid will be a gun. He's a keeper.

You obviously don't read Demonland too closely, don't you know that Weid is barely VFL, let alone AFL standard.

He's not really injured he's been left out because of form and to save him embarrassment they've faked an injury.

Etc.......

Weids will be a gun. Has taken a bit mores f time but believe he will hit his straps, more likely next year. He will have a multipurpose role and will play his part to a tee. Roos got him with the Oliver draft deal for a reason!

Sloane is more of what we need imo. over Lynch.

A swing player similar to the mold of  Steven May would be handy, but I wonder if TSmith could do that ?  I think Smith is potentially very handy player.

I do not want to lose Weide.

I believe he will be our tall forward/follower as he grows his game.   A beaut kick as well. And a powerful mark around the ground, who will crash packs and bodies, like his GrandPa.

Lynch is a gun but we only have room for 1 gun and that's Gaff end of story.

We have absolutely no need for Tom Lynch.

True, but we could force the market price up with speculation to allow other teams cap-out with a clapped-out sort... ?

Our salary cap must have accidentally had an extra zero added to it.

Bank error in your favour, collect out of contract players.

Lynch isn't quick enough for the way the game is heading.

We have so many players of his pace and size.  We need more athletic diversity in our list.

Class runners who play both on the inside and outside.  One out there is a free agent.

 

Not sold on Gaff.  He is a very good player, but I wonder IF We,,, can do better.

He hasn't been a complete player in his career.  Only now is he doing the other bits of the game.   Why only now?

Are we the new Collingwood, getting linked to everyone out of contract 

We should be breaking bread with all of them, just for a chat.  Check the weather with them.

Tom Lynch. No thanks. Why do people keeping talking about trading the weed. That would be plain out silly.

Wouldn't mind old Lynchy boy at half forward taking marks on a lead...at the end of year Adelaide Fire Sale

As much as I rate Lynchy, how many flankers do we need? Vanders, Bennell, Milkshake, Trac, Hunt, Brown, Hannah, Fritta..... he’s an upgrade yes, we can’t fit them all in.

Its a sad state of affairs that we’ve traded a lot for two key defenders that look very poor so far. I’d almost rather we go for Talia to free up one of Lever/May

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields. Rehab: Jake Lever and Charlie Spargo running laps.  Lever was running short distances at a fast click as well as having kick to kick with a trainer. He seems unimpeded. Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
