I reckon he's an upgrade on the Tim Smith/Cam Pederson role

I don't think so, for me. List clogger, I reckon.

    No.

    He'll be 30 next year. If we want an experience mature tall then I'd rather Josh Walker.

    Bit NQR and, all things considered, has done well with the talent and body that he has.

    Pass for me.

    I agree we could do with one key position player as insurance. Buzza, Walker and now Brown are available. I would definitely rookie Josh Walker if he is available.

    No thanks.

     

    Definite no  

    Must say this is a bit disappointing. He is about the 48th player people have suggested taking and I thought we would get to 50.


    I'll add to the chorus saying Josh Walker is the one mature tall who somewhat interests me. The reality is though I want to see Petty and Weideman given every chance at both ends of the ground, plus I'd like to recruit at least 1 young tall with our 5 remaining spots.

    Totally agree 

    Walker is taller better mark and just as versatile!

    The Age tomorrow is reporting that we are interested in picking up delisted Essendon forward Mitch Brown.

    I don't mind this!

    Although none of our players have started following him on Instagram, so probably not happening ?

    Melbourne have emerged as a potential suitor for delisted Essendon forward Mitch Brown.

    The Bombers declined to offer Brown a new contract for 2020 despite the versatile tall kicking 21 goals from 16 AFL games this year, including a match-winning haul of four away to Adelaide in round 18.

    Industry sources have told The Age that Melbourne have shown interest in recruiting Brown.

    Melbourne show interest in Mitch Brown

    Solid backup at the very least.

    Wouldn't completely disregard Brown as a backup for 1 season at ether end, considering our key position players are quite injury prone...Walker would have been better but is going to North

    Backup for the existing Mitch Brown thread?

    Gee wiz.

     

    Get out stakes in the last at Gawler.

    Always thought he had a good pair of hands and a pretty good kick.

    He could turn out to be an astute pick up

    I had more interest in Walker, the reality is this is a post draft kind of decision. Or even later in the summer.

    I have my reasons for doubting Brown on a no [censored] policy which I'll keep to myself as well as overall talent. But if he's desperate for one last go and we are suddenly in the position where depth matters then I could change my mind.

    Of course...we are looking at him.

    What did you say when he was no.4 or 5 in the Essendon forward line?  Do you remember being concerned about him on the way the G earlier this year?

    I will give him one thing. He is a tad better than the Zac Clarke.

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?
