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!

    think you'll find we got every player "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.

    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.

    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

    • NON-MFC: Round 11

      Round 11, the second week of The Sir Doug Nicholls Round, kicks off on Thursday night with the Cats hosting the Bulldogs at Kardinia Park. Geelong will be looking to to continue their decade long dominance over the Bulldogs, while the Dogs aim to take another big scalp as they surge up the ladder. On Friday night it's he Dreamtime at the 'G clash between Essendon and Richmond. The Bombers will want to avoid another embarrassing performance against a lowly side whilst the Tigers will be keen to avenge a disappointing loss to the Kangaroos. Saturday footy kicks off as the Blues face the Giants in a pivotal clash for both clubs. Carlton need to turn around their up and down season while GWS will be eager to bounce back and reassert themselves as a September threat. At twilight sees the Hawks taking on the Lions at the G. Hawthorn need to cement themselves in the Top 4 but they’ll need to be at their best to challenge a Brisbane side eager to respond after last week’s crushing loss to the Dees on their home turf. The first of the Saturday night double headers opens with North Melbourne up against the high-flying Magpies. The Roos will need a near-perfect performance to trouble a Collingwood side sitting atop the ladder.

    • PREVIEW: Sydney

      The two teams competing at the MCG on Sunday afternoon have each traversed a long and arduous path since their previous encounter on a sweltering March evening in Sydney a season and a half ago. Both experienced periods of success at various times last year. The Demons ran out of steam in midseason while the Swans went on to narrowly miss the ultimate prize in the sport. Now, they find themselves outside of finals contention as the season approaches the halfway mark. The winner this week will remain in contact with the leading pack, while the loser may well find itself on a precipice, staring into the abyss. The current season has presented numerous challenges for most clubs, particularly those positioned in the middle tier. The Essendon experience in suffering a significant 91-point loss to the Bulldogs, just one week after defeating the Swans, may not be typical, but it illustrates the unpredictability of outcomes under the league’s present set up.

    • REPORT: Brisbane

      “Max Gawn has been the heart and soul of the Dees for years now, but this recent recovery from a terrible start has been driven by him. He was everywhere again, and with the game in the balance, he took several key marks to keep the ball in the Dees forward half.” - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasn’t the efforts of one man that caused this monumental upset, but rather the work of the coach and his assistants and the other 22 players who took the ground, notably the likes of Jake Melksham, Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Kozzie Pickett but Max has been magnificent in taking ownership of his team and its welfare under the fire of a calamitous 0-5 start to the season. On Sunday, he provided the leadership that was needed to face up to the reigning premier and top of the ladder Brisbane Lions on their home turf and to prevail after a slow start, during which the hosts led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter. Titus O’Reily is normally comedic in his descriptions of the football but this time, he was being deadly serious. The Demons have come from a long way back and, although they still sit in the bottom third of the AFL pack, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel as they look to drive home the momentum inspired in the past four or five weeks by Max the Magnificent who was under such great pressure in those dark, early days of the season.

    • CASEY: Southport

      The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

    • PREGAME: Sydney

      Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?
