Same article suggests we should target Bruce Gibbs. 

What are the odds of that happening?

Who's this Bruce Gibbs fella?

    He played for Carlton once, like Bryce Doull ( who was a decent defender but had less hair) You surely remember him.

    A code hopper like Israel Folau or Karmichael Hunt (only older).

    OMG.  Why not just close the club down, or  sell off Ollie, Brayshaw, Gawn and anyone else who could help us get somewhere?

    I am 100% certain that GC$ would love to have Clarrie.

    i'm pretty sure there would be 17 clubs lining up to get him, not just GCS.

    Now they can write the same article on the Pies and suggest clearing DeGoey and Stevenson to the Suns.

    1. Paying Oliver a mega deal would hurt the Suns, they have to pay every one of their current players 20% over to stay, they’d lose 4 to bring in one big money guy. Nice idea but it won’t happen.

    2. Tom McDonald was the main man last year even with Hogan and we rarely played 3 talls together. We need Melsham back and a 3rd tall cover for Jake. Joel Smith was the plan. The draft is probably the long term answer.

    3. Gibbs has lost pace and hunger for the ball, his future is probably as a half back and we’ve already got Jones for that.

    4. Langdon is an obvious move and Butler is a nice proposition as well, he’s got that bit right.

    How old was Ronald when he left, his playing career was over by then, he went to Carlton mostly as a coach, and why did he because norm smith told him to, if he wanted to coach.

    The available range of emojis does not adequately accord with the mirth I am currently experiencing.

    I am feeling most mirthsome.

    The article didn’t suggest the Dees should trade Oliver, but rather the Gold Coast should target him... there’s a big difference.

    If I were in charge of an horrendously underperforming side, I’d make overtures to ANY talented player also

    If Gibbs and Lever are worth 2 first rounders, GC would need to stump up 3. Or 2 + Jack Martin.

    Last player i would trade.

    Yep, we would need 3 x number one picks to even get close to drafting a player as good as Oliver.

    This is the sort of article you read in the off season. 

    Click bait "r" us.

    Why stop at Clarry, why not have a garage sale and sell the whole place?

    Yes lets give up our good players to start yet another rebuild?

     

    Now that is an interesting thought. Let's start  a topic anew: Who to trade at season's end - and how much will we get for these players? Or, Who not to trade under any circumstances - otherwise, empty to lists?

    I'd start with the latter.

    Gawn, Clarrie, Gus, Salem, Petracca, Frosty, May, Jetta, Melksham, J. Smith.

    Goddard has always been a muppet. If Melbourne traded Clarry, that'd be it for me.

    Goddard is correct, of course GC should go after Oliver, they’re a mess and they need A-grade talent. I obviously hope it doesn’t happen though.

      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.
