In about 2012, a Collingwood supporter invited me as a guest to their Presidents lunch. I rejected.  To lie with dogs, you get fleas. Gus will not be seen with any feral cats!!

He won’t do it. Not saying he won’t leave, but if he does it won’t be to Geelong. 

Yeah no chance!

He looks so happy at the Dees - I can’t see him leaving

“Asked after Thursday night’s win over Brisbane — in which Brayshaw starred in with 29 disposals — whether he’d remain at the Demons next year, Brayshaw told CODE: “I bet you’d like to know. I’m conscious of not giving everyone the headline. But I love the club, I love my teammates. That’s something that will take care of itself.”

Geelong, Richmond, Collingwood.. why do they always seem to have deep pockets and cap space? Surely they run out of those if year in year out target key players (on top coin) from opposition teams.

Carlton is the club that I can’t work out…several top 10 picks plus the likes of Martin, Saad, Cerra and Hewitt on presumably big coin…

That made me laugh, aren't the Woods actually paying Treloar to play for the Dogs.

Don't worry the cats are now into De Goey....why is it that whatever comes out of Chris scotts mouth gives me the sh!ts....yep that's it, entitlement, an obscene level of entitlement

I got stopped by a Freo infiltrator on Thursday night at the G who said both Gus and Jackson would be playing for Freo next year. I told him I'm not sure about Dogga but Angus isn't going anywhere. He had no idea (well he was a Freo supporter) that Gus is Godfather to George Gawn. I can't see how Gus could  possibly explain to his Godson that he left the Demons.  I'm pretty sure Brayshaw's partner Danielle Frawley would have a bit to say as well.

 

I'd love to see a stint in the midfield for Gus at some point, but you have to admit he's taken his game in defence to another level. Doesn't panic and has saved quite a few certain goals for us in recent weeks. Big part of the intercept brigade now.

i wouldn't

gus as a half back >>> gus as a defensive wingman >>>>> gus as an inside mid


Gus will stay. He has his family here, danielle, the dees, george gawn, RMGC... so nothing to worry about. The only concern is for our list management strategy. Other teams show interest in RFA and increase their value knowing full well they won't switch. It drives up there price meaning we pay more than we had to. Can make it difficult to keep the whole team together. Just need to keep winning because the premiership window trumps all. Role players will sacrifice big coin for premierships and then move on to get paid at the end of their career with a good CV... Brandon Ellis did it going from Richmond to Gold Coast.

The Blues invented rorting in the 80's  being the John Elliott legacy and nicely handed over the batten to the club in 2000's via Judd's alledged  $200K Environmental ambassadorship with Visy.

Could be a clue.

Fortunately for them I think a recycling company could help with brown paper bags. (again)

There is fair argument to be made that Carltons twenty plus years in the wilderness is a direct result of thst cheating and the penalties they copped - in particular the draft related ones

Twenty years not long enough. 1995 needs to be reviewed and possibly stripped from them

All I can say is [censored] off Geelong.

Trying to be objective here - I wouldn't swap our list for theirs, nor home grounds, nor jumpers, nor coaches - when its all said and done they are a very unattractive proposition

It makes a nice change from all the years when the Trade and Draft Board would be open by now!!

I think Gus was keen to play more midfield minutes and assumed that had to be somewhere else - but then saw what Jack Viney delivered on Thursday night and thought ‘Actually, I don’t want to play against that. Sign me up!’

This bloke is a professional guesser. Think they both stay but has nothing to do with the above.

  • 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.
