Amazing how the club is saying that a defender is still high on our priority list...

    Interesting. The permanent replacement for OMac?

    He will be 28 at the beginning of next year.  Ha, ha - the club must think we are in premiership mode!!.

    We would only chase another tall defender if they were concerned about Lever long term which I doubt.  The article talks about May going forward so maybe they are concerned about TMac's foot. 

    If we want a fwd I we should go after a genuine forward rather than turn a key defender into a forward.

    Adelaide will want our first round pick and they know we will cave in.

    Walk away.

    Good move. If we can keep other teams to less than 5 goals, we are a good chance to win 10 -11 games. Enough to sneak into the 8 some years!

    True. But we might be good next year. Who knows. 

    At least we didn’t trade our first round pick this year and we can console ourselves with a decent player come the end of the year.

    Yes, assuming we get the pick right ?

    I hope we pick a slow inside mid with suspect kicking. It’s the missing piece of our puzzle.

    First it was Midfielders midfielders midfielders, lately it’s been Defenders, defenders, defenders.

    Our biggest hole?

    Forwards!!!   FFS

    Can’t kick goals for love nor money so let’s go get another defender. 

    Fantastic idea.

    For my own sanity I’m putting this article down to Keath’s manager pump-priming his client in negotiations with Adelaide.

    Would have thought a forward would be more on the agenda but apparently not. B: LEVER, MAY, JETTA

    HB: HIBBERD, KEATH, HORE not bad.

    it would seem absurd if we pick up keath

    he's having an enormous year, but why oh why would we get ANOTHER tall key defender

    In the last year of his contract?

    This has to be BS

    unless we trade o Mac and frost for him, no deal

    If this is true I hope Pert gets the review under way and makes appropriate changes to the FD before a dumb trade is made.

    Has Keath suddenly become a six foot line-breaking speedster with elite precision kicking?

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?
