@tallstuey We're still in the same place with the forwardline as last year hey? Noticed you last posted 1 year ago on the same topic before starting this new thread  ? I still have a big doubt any  recruitment coup will get across the line if its not that publicly rumoured currently, sadly.

    That would be quite a coup as Bruce has committed to 4 years at the Bulldogs.  But Saints are playing hard ball saying the Bulldogs pick #32 won't get the deal done. saints won't let Bruce go cheaply

    Bob Murphy would have some close contacts at the Bulldogs so it might be good intel.

    A 2020 2nd round pick. Let's see some of these lippy Saints fans i've noticed this year, put their money where their mouth is and bet on us being down the bottom.

    Saints will fold, as they are going all out next year to get Ben King and won't commit to more than one year for Josh Bruce. They also need salary cap room for the newbies Hill, Jones and whoever.

    If they get too smart they could shoot themselves in the foot.

    It's Josh Bruce? Was apparently reported on sen that we've made a late play.

    @Yokozunasuggested it wasn't Bruce we were looking at, so interesting development. If this is true, have we gone cold on whoever it was we were looking at and are having a closer look at Bruce? I can't imagine we're in the hunt for 2 KPFs.

    Is that suppose to be art? Anything can be art these days, have you seen those people that go around New York putting sprinkles onto dog faeces? Apparently it’s art as well.

    Just putting it out there, and before anyone asks and says i am trolling, I will not be giving any names (my source has demanded I don’t) but I have heard we are really trying to get a key forward from another vic team!!

    I will let you all guess away (or conversely have a crack at me for not naming anyone and making it up), but I will only say he is from a vic team and has been mentioned nowhere in the media.

    We all know Elliott was not the only player we have been talking too!

     

    OK a key forward doesn't necessarily mean a big bloke. Maybe a hint is Elliott is not the only player we are talking to. Could it be another key small forward. The Saints and Dogs need to clear cap space for their upcoming recruiting. That opens things up Breust, Billings, Membery or Billy Gowers all of whom would surprise. MFC have long held a belief that Billings was the best in his draft year. Small quick who misses lots of goals but always performs well against us!!!!

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
