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: 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?
