Do we have any chance of getting him?  Jones, Lewis and one other should free up enough salary cap space.

    Midfield, Midfield, Midfield.

    After that, its the midfield.

    Maybe then we can look at selling the farm for a forward saviour..... coz that has worked out really well for our backline thus far.

    Mids.

    Then more mids.

    Good ones.

    He may cost too much. He’d be asking upwards of $1M per year which is probably too much. Just gotta pray that Weid can step up. 

    What’s Whitfield’s contract status at the moment? Is he OOC at years end? Or did he resign recently. Would sure like him on the wing and unlikely to cost that much.

    Would gladly pay him that much.   Hes an incredible player and an excitement machine.

    The money we got back in marketing $$ and extra memberships would easily cover his contract.

    If we want him, we’ll make it work and fit him in. I don’t concern myself with the salary cap.

    Like Cameron, I believe Whitfield is also OOC end of 2020.

    Not kidding at all really. Our midfield depth is not as flash as many think. Jones will be gone soon, and it could easily come to pass that one or 2 of our alleged "guns" refuse to extend/ask for trade if we dont improve drastically.

    Cameron would cost so much of our cap that it would make the rumors of disharmony in the ranks (because of the money some recent recruits are on) even louder.

    I would LOVE Cameron as he is a genuine game-breaker.

    We just cant afford to take another massive risk cost-wise until our last 2 big name recruits start paying dividends.

    What a joke. We get rid of a gun forward in Hogan & now we are in desperate need of another.

    Understand your point, but Hogan is having a terrible season.  His worst ever by far.

    Fair to say he isn't the next Wayne Cary/Jonathan Brown  that he looked like he was going to be early on.

    He is presently the best Key Forward in the comp and worth every cent.  Tom Boyd wasn't and got paid mega dollars on a long term deal (heavily front ended) and helped to win a premiership for the team with the longest drought who then passed the baton to us!

    Weid has, until this point, shown nothing to suggest he will be a contender going forward.  Trade bait at the moment and frees up room for an expensive Cameron deal.

    Foresight!  Yes yes yes.... memberships up and sponsors would be happy.  Maybe even more prime time TV coverage.  The AFL could NOT ignore the best forward in the comp complimented by a very competitive outfit around him with the capability of knocking over anyone at any time!

    Doubt he is getable

    MFCSS but well earned neita.  We are well overdue snaring a big fish in his prime and the other clubs always pinch them.  Some have pinched them from under our noses over the decades.  Our turn!  Go for broke we are in a narrow premiership window, it won't last.  The likes of Cameron may not come up again for another 3 to 5 years and by that stage we will likely be in a re-structuring phase under Goody or maybe a rebuilding phase (yet again) under a brand new coach if we stuff this window up.  And we will probably miss the next opportunity for a big trade deal in a similar window to this (if one arises!).  Then we'll be 60 plus years in the wilderness and might fall off a cliff once more!  Risk for reward!

    He'll go to hawthorn or Geelong  for 750k...its why I hate this competition

     So, offer him $1.25 mill or something he can't ignore Wells, mostly front ended.

    Hogan was not a gun Key Forward IMHO Wiz.  More of a part time decoy Key Forward (who forgot how to play that role in the way you would normally expect a Key Forward to play it) playing a wandering high forward role which occasionally also saw him drifting across HB to help out.  More a tall utility than a gun Key Forward.  But yes if he wasn't home sick and no issues keeping Hogan would have been nice.  Trade the Weid instead.

    Why is there a thread about Jeremy Cameron? Has this come up in the media or is the OP just throwing it out there based on nothing?

    Was something in the media a couple of weeks ago about Geelong trying to lure him in a year when he hits free agency.

    Yeah I understand that but at what point does it become too much to fit into our cap. If it cost us Oliver and Harmes/Gus/Tmac or any other player of significant importance is it really worth it? To gain one gun we could lose 2. I’m not sure I want that, but if it doesn’t then yeah by all means get him. 

    Thats part of list management I guess.

    No,  we don't need Cameron that much.  We need flankers of quality,  in all 4 corners of our team sheet.  and the Pivot...  this is where we need class.   Class we don't have Yet.

    the Bartels,  the Black's,  the Lappin's,  the Voss's,  the Stevie J's,  dare i say, the Toby Green's ?

    ... remember when Roos sounded out our club,  about a young Toby Green,  when he had that altercation as a young fella,  at a hotel in Melbourne.?

    16th on the ladder (and deservedly so) would suggest we should have mountains of salary cap space available.

    If not, there is some serious mis-management going on.

    I loved watching Hogan and wish him well.  Back to Perth was the best move for him.

    BUT.... look at the stats from last weeks Freo win and Jesse is bottom of the list. I just don't see him reaching the potential he clearly had.  A Ross Lyon coached team won't get it done for him either

    Smart move by MFC to do the trade.

    • 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.

    • NON-MFC: Round 06

      The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.
