This bloke was gettable last trade period and I was pushing him hard on DL, with not a lot of support from other posters. 

Given our current position with key forwards and his form, he would have been invaluable.

GWS was looking to make salary cap room and he would not have cost a lot in salary or trade.

I said at the time he was big, mobile and could play both ends of the ground.

He would have been a good get for us and might have helped us win another game or two to this point of the season, which would have kept our finals chances alive. 

Big pity.

 

Did a medical at North and then they decided not to pursue any further.. LOL

We obviously did medicals on May and KK. 

 

My mate on Sunday suggested that he is not necessarily the nicest bloke running around - no further details, but not sure what that means in terms of culture?

Fair enough. Happy we have nice guys with no skill.

Perhaps some truth into that.

It seemed it odd that GWS were happy to let him go considering he had a good season last year.

Having a much better year this year.

We cleared one to the Dockers. Who do you suggest we can get?  Another May deal?

Dusty suppressed his team to a flag, winning a Brownlow along the way.

Wish we had a suppressor.

We haven't got a good second or third tall forward, so not a bad idea at low cost and trade price to have got one.

BTW Finlayson has good form at both ends of the ground and unlike most of our players, can take a mark, kick a goal and even pass the footy accurately.

Finlayson is not in the same league as Dusty.

And Dusty changed a lot before they won a flag. 

Remember, he had no serious takers, including us, when his contract was up before then. There was a reason for that at the time which was more than his price

And good is not always  'good'...   sometimes Bad...  is Great.

Who here would not draft a young Dermie,  or Lockett,  if they appeared before us this year ?

Who would we chase for a running player ?    Coniglio or Whitfield..  

I reckon I would go Coniglio 1st...  as we need leadership,  and he has leadership already in his repertoire.

But he might offend the kings of the North.?  Red.  He might give someone 'the bird'... or worse, that two fingered job.

Lol, the same Roos that recruited Harry O?

Or was He,  & We...  doing the AFL a favour (bidding),  that they required of us ?  relieving the woods of him ? 

He was a runner of some ability.  but too many distractions.

Someone like Hogan maybe???

 

Hogan was a key forward, contested marking beast in his first 2 years. Just what we needed. Soon became a running high half forward who would kick a couple of goals per game. Could hardly take a contested mark in the end. Loves to party, wanted home to his 'mates' in WA, pictures tell a thousand words. 

We need a stable key forward, whether that be Tmac, Weid or someone like Cameron.

Interesting that Hogan has kicked only 8 goals so far this year with a few Joe the Goose ones included and also didn’t have a single kick against the Lions. Clearly not setting the world on fire.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
