He's actually had a very good year with the power this year so i'd 100% be asking the question. has some attributes as a player that would suit us. i think he'd come at a good price as well. 

i'd be all for it.

    3rd or 4th rounder at best.

    I'd say they'd want a second rounder but our pick 38 should get it done i would have thought.

    Interestingly, things have gone quiet on the contract front for him after the news a month or so ago.

    no...rediculous.

    We already have Baker, Dunkley, JKH, Stretch, Brayshaw, Hunt, Jordan, Kolodjashnij, Sparrow, C Wagner

    we don't need Amon, Langdon or Hill.....we just need to administer a game plan where these players are utilized effectively.

    K Amon : averaging 19 disposals @ 75% efficiency & 4 turnovers per game & .5 goals per game.

    1 of those players has shown enough to be considered best 22, and he's just had a horror year where he's been shown up when played on the wing. This is next level head in the sand stuff.

    what a great idea.....

    Let's go & recruit 'more of the same players' If you think Karl Amon is the answer to our issues then you should probably  give it away.

    The real issue runs deeper than this discussion & I think you know that. Until our game plan & style changes then the full value of all our players will not be recognised.

    Not recognising the real problem is next level head in the sand stuff.

    We have to turn our list over, the players that we have that you think might fill that role have either run out of chances, are young and ultimately unproven. We need far better players on our list and i would think Amon is a far better player that all those mentioned.

    Would be a yes from me.

    I agree D3......we certainly need to turn the list over, but, in my opinion, until the main issue is addressed, the MFC wont be a better performing unit. Would K Amon be a good inclusion.....maybe, but he's part of a much better side in Port Adelaide where they have an attacking style of play & play a team orientated brand of footy.

    Good points Goat and i think its a bit of Chicken or the egg ta the moment with this team and that's the problem. Is game falling down because of players that cant execute, or are players falling down because game plan isn't suited. the conundrum was that it was only a year ago that this plan and the execution thrust us into a prelim.

    You realize we can BOTH trade in players AND work on the game plan yeah?

    And if you think any of Baker, Dunkley, JKH, Stretch, Brayshaw, Hunt, Jordan, Kolodjashnij, Sparrow, C Wagner are the answer for us on the wing then be prepared for 2019 take II.

    Yes I do think our wingers can come from that group. That's the whole point of my argument.....

    I guess we will have to wait & see what the 'powers to be' do re the list, the game plan & the 2020 season.

    Fair enough mate, that's how you see it, I see it differently. That's footy hey.

    I think the list and the game plan are in for change this offseason. Cheers.

    • REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
