I think if we get Thomlinson and Langdon we will have done well given were bottom 4. they are role players but definitely give us much need pace. and for goodness sake recruit some pace and class in the draft.

    I highly doubt it will happen, so I'll say that first. but don't rule out the pre-season draft. Langdon is desperate to get out of Freo now, he's not leaving on good terms with some teammates. So if Freo stuff around, there's a chance he'll walk himself. players normally don't go to the PSD because they are grateful for the opportunities given and want their former club to get something, but he wants out as soon as possible and structured his life to do that.

    While I agree that it's highly unlikely, he runs the risk of being drafted by Gold Coast if he did that. If it did happen, I would hope we warn GC to butt out after they received Pick 2 PP. If they then did take him, I would hope Melbourne would then go hard for someone to spite them in the next trade period.

    He's coming, will be done and circumstances in which he's leaving won't see them holding us to ransom. There may be semantics but pick 21 or whatever it ends up being

    Yeah he has publically stated he wants to come to Melbourne, that's why it's gone quiet. If it gets noisy again, we worry.

    If they didn't get the PP, or it ended up later than pick 2, then maybe we could arrange to trade pick 2 to them, with extra's coming back - picks, King etc. with a handshake agreement that if Langdon goes to the PSD they don't touch him. Highly doubtful it's going to happen anyway.

    I think it's just that it's a bit boring. 

    It was rumoured all year and all but confirmed a month ago... nothing much the media can add to spice up an open-and-shut case.

    Rumoured to be another current Freo player is seeing his ex-girlfriend.

    If... if Gus was to be traded, I'd like Langdon + Cerra for Gus + 20.

    Would rather keep Gus if possible.

    Yep, Shockers would need to chuck in their first rounder or Cerra for it to even come close to consideration.

    Brayshaw -The guy came third in the Brownlow last year, had a rough year this year.  Value would be a first rounder minimum.  They might want him, but I think that would be separate to the Langdon deal.  It might be Langdon for 21 might be the first trade made - it looks fairly open and shut.

    Ray, I have looked closely at Tomlinson recently and in my opinion, pace is not one of his assets. I think he can run all day, however, he is a real plodder.

    I think that will suit us, given how slow we generally move the ball, a bloke with real acceleration would be out of kicking distance by the time the ball holder decides what to do with it.

    He’s 193cm tall. I don’t know many blokes that size who are fleet of foot.

    Walk up starting 22 player who can run all day and fill a void. I’ll take him please.

    We can't draft speed, it's a proven  fact any player  recruited by Melbourne automatically becomes 20% slower.

    Agree.  Langdon has pace. Tomlinson has no pace. Was staggered by the comment.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
