Need to get over our obsession with inside mids and intercept defenders for a start: any danger we could recruit a forward?

    Charlie is a very smart footballer who will be a regular once he builds his engine. He was pick 29 from memory or there abouts.

    Hmmn, I agree, ' scsy'.

    needs that tank and to get stronger fitter.  a better player than tracc, atmo.   just off form.

    He supplies our other forwards, with his distribution skills.   We are missing him,  In-form.  and Hannan.

    I think we should target the Saints this week.

    Seb Ross would be a handy acquisition

    Callum Ah Chee.  Classy mid forward.  Always played well when I watched the Suns.  Now in their reserves but I am sure has the talent, pace and class that would fit into Dees needs.

    Whoever we target it's time to start targeting them before the price shoots up. May may be great for us but like Lever came at a heavy cost if they work out great.

    I like the deals Carlton have done to get Plowman and Marchbank in. I like both players.

    Having said that both Hibberd and Melksham were good deals which I think the club won

    Carltank traded Marchbank and Pickett plus a second rounder for a second and third rounder in 2016, plus a 2017 first round pick - it’s not that great a deal in isolation 

    Plowman is a below average defender - was part of the deal that saw pick No.28 together with No.77, 95 and Geelong's 2016 first-round pick (acquired in the Lachie Henderson trade) to Greater Western Sydney for Lachie Plowman, Jed Lamb, Andrew Phillips and Liam Sumner and pick No.8

    Neither deal is equivalent to $cully for pick 68 or whatever it was, which remains daylight robbery

    Agreed. Future 4th round is what the hawks paid. Super shadey that deal. Nominates hawthorn “ because of their record with treating  injuries” all the talk is of no Scully fr 2019 or most of it... or that he may never play again. Then viola he’s playing round frikn 2. Meaning he must have known the injury wasn’t that bad. I don’t mind players nominating a club and the club paying what the player is worth but that deal was utter deception. If it happened to us I’d be going off my nuts. Scully is the worst with [censored] like this.... keeps inventing new lows fr himself. I’m amazed there has not been more spotlight on this.

    He looked slow and lacking agility. Not sure he will get back to the best he showed at GWS. Was also a salary dump by GWS. They have a number of players better than $cully that need re-signing

    OOC at seasons end and may be open to a move to Victoria as his partner is from here and reportedly unsettled on GC. Was keen on getting to Bombers last year, but scuppered by Shiel deal.

    Omeara signs for 4 more years in a deal designed to give them the SC space to go after Coniglio, who is a FA this year and best mates with Omeara

    I think we should be going after Zac Jones in a big way. 

    Fits the mould perfectly. 

    Tough, breaks lines with hard running and pace and normally uses the ball very well.

    @stevethemanjordan - if ‘old man natedog who should retire and relinquish captaincy’ can jag 3 goals running off him - then he has limited pace ?

    Do you have a younger brother? 

    As the eldest of three, I can assure you that respect isn't something a younger brother adheres to..

    Years too late to go after Kelly or Whitfield.

    Missed out on Rozzee in the draft.

    We still need footspeed, there just isnt much quality around.

    Go to the draft and hope to find some quality.

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.

    • GAMEDAY: Fremantle

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons return to the MCG wounded, undermanned and desperate. Still searching for their first win of the season, Melbourne faces a daunting task against the Fremantle Dockers. With key pillars missing at both ends of the ground, the Dees must find a way to rise above the adversity and ignite their season before it slips way beyond reach. Will today be the spark that turns it all around, or are we staring down the barrel of a 0–6 start?

    • PREVIEW: Fremantle

      A month is a long time in AFL football. The proof of this is in the current state of the two teams contesting against each other early this Saturday afternoon at the MCG. It’s hard to fathom that when Melbourne and Fremantle kicked off the 2025 season, the former looked like being a major player in this year’s competition after it came close to beating one of the favourites in the GWS Giants while the latter was smashed by Geelong to the tune of 78 points and looked like rubbish. Fast forward to today and the Demons are low on confidence and appear panic stricken as their winless streak heads towards an even half dozen and pressure mounts on the coach and team leadership.  Meanwhile, the Dockers have recovered their composure and now sit in the top eight. They are definitely on the up and up and look most likely winners this weekend against a team which they have recently dominated and which struggles to find enough passages to the goals to trouble the scorers. And with that, Fremantle will head to the MCG, feeling very good about itself after demolishing Richmond in the Barossa Valley with Josh Treacy coming off a six goal haul and facing up to a Melbourne defence already without Jake Lever and a shaky Steven May needing to pass a fitness test just to make it onto the field of play.
