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

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
