I'd rather go for Hartung and Oxley.

Oxley isn't best 22 for Collingwood, so we don't need to recruit him to avoid a repeat of the 2013 QB :laugh:

    Hartung no and I’d prefer Jake Neade over Menzel. Didn’t really ignite at Port but maybe we can work some magic with him.

    "Was delisted by Port Adelaide on Monday, despite being one of the best pressure forwards in the league. He’s managed just 15 games from the past two seasons, but his record of 55 goals from 66 games stacks up well. Neade impressed in the SANFL in 2018 with his ball-winning ability (17 disposals per outing) and pressure (six tackles). At 24, Neade has age on his side as well."

    Sounds interesting, i wonder why he's rarely been suggested on this forum though?

    Seems an upgrade on JKH to me. Not a racist comparison. Just we went for versatility for a while at the expense of genuine forward crumbers. What I've seen of Jake he can perform this role and apply forward pressure as well.

    We would go from having a surplus of Jacks to having a surplus of Jakes

    Is anyone on top of the situation? Why was he delisted? Any personal issues? He's not lazy if he's a good pressure player. Perhaps a delisting because of a plan to get Rankine?

    Not sure, looking at all the delisted players most or nearly all are ‘meh’ whereas Neade raised an eyebrow. From what I have seen of him he looked ready to explode in some games, he’s an ‘almost there’ type of player imo. 

    At 24 you would think Port might have kept him when you look at some the players getting close to or above 30. Then again you might be onto something with the draft, they have 3 picks in the top 15 to target certain needs.

    Until he had his groin injury he was the most dangerous small forward in the competition.

    Menzel. No way. I would consider Townsend for depth though.

    Now that it's official I'd probably be happy enough to take a punt on him.

  • Quote

    If he defended like he attacked, he would be a 2-first-round-pick trade candidate.

     

    But he doesn't, so he isn't.

    Pass.

    Murdoch yes.  Comes for free. Real pace. More goalkickers. Replaces Kent for nothing.  

    On the injured list???

    Murdoch is no good, can run fast but has no idea about footy.

    Better off with Usain Bolt as a cat B rookie, I hear he's looking for a gig.

    Menzel is a very smart medium forward who can really hurt teams on the scoreboard, he will get a gig somewhere, that said, not with us.

    He doesn’t fit with our game style, so would be staggered if we were to recruit him.

    Neade in the other hand, may be worth considering, but I haven’t seen him enough to have an informed opinion

    Get Menzel and make him a Alan Parsons Project. There is no argument the bloke can play and if comes free and we are scratching around for spots to fill, who knows, maybe we can teach him to defend vigorously. Otherwise he and Garlett can kick goals together with the wind at Casey. 

    PS By Alan Parsons I mean Brendan McCartney

    We can’t make him defend, no-one can

    • GAMEDAY: Western Bulldogs

      It's Game Day and the Demons will be running out on the field with a new Head Coach, albeit a caretaker, for the first time in 3,060 days when they face the Western Bulldogs at the MCG today. What do you want to see from the Demons in the first match of the Post Simon Goodwin era?

    • Thank You Simon Goodwin

      As Demon fans, we’ve ridden a rollercoaster of emotions over the decades; the heartbreaks, the near misses, the wooden spoons, and the endless waiting. But through it all, we clung to hope. And then came Simon Goodwin. Before he ever wore red and blue, he was a champion in his own right. A five-time All-Australian, two-time Best and Fairest, and two-time premiership hero and Captain with Adelaide, Simon Goodwin was always destined to lead. When he transitioned from the field to the coach's box, first as an assistant at Essendon, he began shaping a new legacy.

    • PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

      Long ago and far away, the Melbourne Football Club replaced its coach in difficult circumstances after the team suffered a devastating loss. In the aftermath, I penned the following words: “Then came the politics, the intrigue, the axing, the sound of the football world laughing at a club, the circling of the media vultures, the reinvention of history, the anger, the irony, the pathos, the hurt on the face of the president, the dignified departure of the coach, and the determination of the newly appointed caretaker.” Today, we’re back in the same place although one difference here is that the coach who was terminated this time is Simon Goodwin, the man who four years ago

    • REPORT: West Coast

      The Charles Dickens novel, A Tale of Two Cities, opens with, “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, …”  This phrase highlights many of the significant challenges that humanity encounters in life, ranging from experiencing remarkable highs to living in times of despair. This is a concept that should resonate with all supporters of the Melbourne Football Club this morning as they reflect on its comprehensive 83-point victory over the struggling West Coast Eagles at Marvel Stadium. The outcome proved beyond doubt that they are the worst of clubs and that we are the best of the worst.

      With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?
