Melbourne

 

In limbo: There are only two Dees out of contract, but both Jay Kennedy Harris and Billy Stretch (pictured) currently appear unlikely to be at the club next season. Melbourne targeted run throughout the trade period, with Adam Tomlinson and Ed Langdon joining.

Delisted: Jeff Garlett, Declan Keilty
Retired: Jordan Lewis, Corey Maynard, Tim Smith, Guy Walker

 

Would take Josh Walker and Ben Keays from Brisbane. Both would be depth upgrades at least.

 

Josh Walker is a definite no for me 


I really don't think he is AFL standard - I'm confident Geelong and Brisbane feel the same way

Josh Walker has always intrigued me as a footballer.

Still only 26 

Has improved markedly at Bris bane Def defence insurance and can switch hut up forward 

Sam Gray and Christiansen ( don't like how he ducks his head) are the types of players we should look at as they are small forwards with skills and above all kick goals!

Sorry Seen Walker improve in defence and an most surprised Lions have not signed him up.

plays with more body and while not all Harris Andrews skills he is hard to beat one on one Msybe pace a  question  but reliable snd good overhead mark 

 

I expect both Sam Grey & Allen Christensen to stay at their clubs given Port missed out on Fantasia and Brisbane Elliott.

Would love Sam Skinner despite the fact Brisbane will likely try to keep him. Think we should offer him a decent contract and get him in the PSD. Can play at either end and is really aggressive.

Would also take a punt on Tim Broomhead assuming he gets delisted as a DFA. Was just starting to establish himself in the Collingwood team until he broke his leg early 2018. Has pace, is a good kick and would help provide some forward pressure and crumbing ability.

Surely Keays is worth a look! Still only 22 years old and has showed a bit at AFL level the past few years. Kicked 43 goals from 16 games in the NEAFL this year. IMO he'd be an upgrade on all our depth forwards at worst.


Why don’t we look at Harley Bennell as a rookie  

Stick him in the forward line and see what he can do. 

Worth the risk imo. 

Harley Bennell for sure. Get him. Risk & reward option.
Safe option, if the Cats don't re-sign him would be Lachie Henderson. Gives us key position coverage at both ends

Have you watched Henderson lately?, I run with more fluidity and I'm in my sixties

Turn it up. You get around on a scooter. Unless it's a race down a steep hill, I'm backing Henderson

Hope your brakes are in good nick !

Should have a chat with Goody and see if there's a rookie spot with your name on it. Chap like you should get a game.

About time we had Another Wizard in the forward pocket

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
