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.

Cough, splutter, choke....... you do know he is 20?

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... ?

Edited by DeezNuts

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.


T Mac had an off day. We need another forward who can clunk marks. 

Maybe Weid but I'd trade him for Gaff.

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

  • AFLW REPORT: Gold Coast

    The forecast said wind. The ladder said mismatch. The scoreboard said obliteration. Melbourne didn’t just beat Gold Coast — they dismantled them: 13.15 (93) to 0.6 (6). An 87-point obliteration, the Suns held goalless, and the Demons delivering their second-highest winning margin and third-highest score in AFLW history.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #28 Will Verrall

    It was a tough ask for him to break through as a 199cm ruckman in the shadow of an all-time great in that position who is also the club captain. He had some good days at Casey but was unable to progress and was delisted at the end of the season.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #29 Tom Campbell

    The 33-year-old Campbell has yet to play AFL football for Melbourne, but his Casey form has been strong and he has been retained as a ready-made ruck depth option who is widely regarded as someone who is excellent for the culture of the club.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #30 Harry Sharp 

    The Demons acquired an interesting player in Sharp, who narrowly missed securing a spot in the Lions’ premiership team last year. The 22-year-old medium forward played in the opening round this season and ended up with 18 senior games, although he was substituted in or out in for ten of those matches. He demonstrated glimpses of form, but ultimately ended the year on the margins of the team.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #31 Bayley Fritsch

    Worked his way back after a slow start and a further slump in form going into the midseason but became a solid contributor for the club in the latter half of 2025. Closing in on 300 goals for the club.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Gold Coast

    On Friday, the Demons return to our Casey Fields fortress where they have a 77% win rate. The scent of September is in the air and the struggling Suns are on the horizon. The Cranbourne weather forecast? Ominous, like the match itself: a strong chance of carnage. Let’s be honest, last week’s first half against the West Coast was a training drill but we dropped our guard in the final quarter. While this match is a mismatch on paper — second versus seventeenth — football is won in the wind, the contests, and the moments.
