apparently is happy with Brisbane's recent offer. Again, Carlton and North are the two clubs that have shown interest.

We would be absolute crazy to at least enquire.

Do you mean we would be absolutely crazy to at least not enquire?

I wouldn't even consider it tbh. I LOVE him, but the amount he would require financially is much more needed elsewhere currently, not to mention the trade currency needed that I wouldn't think we would have.

My shopping list would be: 1. Jezza Cameron (followed by Casboult then Daniher pending acceptance)

Just like Jezza and Daniher. They too will command big money.

And yes I did mean that lol

having now read the article, presuming you mean <insert emoticon for recycling cardboard boxes>

Holy chit if this bloke is available then get him! He would dominate in our chitful forward line.

The blue print was to be challenging for flags in 2020, would he help us do  that moving forward?

If we had anything left cap wise after chasing a gun key forward I would then put the house on Charlie, but for me, 100% key forward first.

small forwards are the new key forwards

I would go after Daniel Talia,  if I wanted quick effect, and had dollars.

 

But, that would put too many players in our older age bracket.

So I hope we draft a mobile key back.  193 - 194cms, quick agile and skilled.

we don't need another 29 year old key defender

Isn't Talia more a defender? Haven't followed him, super closely tbh.

Yes he is. An old fashion lock down defender.

Bizarre suggestion by MFM to be bluntly honest.

Key back? What?

Yes,  I agree. He is.  But the type of player is what we lack.

I wouldn't sacrifice for the quick effect,  'wwsw'.

Yes, actually in under 18's he was a winger, in the match at the Dome.

To me he was the standout from those I saw that year u18's...  but only saw him in one game.

 

Can he play forward, interesting.

I was trying to make the point that our defence still needs another gun tall,  so that Lever plays 3rd tall or small.   But Talia is too old for our defensive mix.

He and May would finish at the same time which isn't good. 

Although May can play forward as well.?

Didn't Polec leave Brisbane to go home to SA? Money talks

We've got young forwards, and older,  but we have nothing in the pipeline Re tall backs.   Once may is done, were stoofed.  If Lever gets hurt, were stoofed.

 

It's CHB we need mostly from the draft this year.

 

But I would go after Fogarty hard,  as a trade hopeful.   He reminds me of a bigger Glenn Archer, a key position Archer.  Brick walls beware.

And he could hit the midfield as well, imo.

I would chase him till the cows come home.  Small POWER forward.   193cm  94Kgs  21Yr  old.

And he would compliment a 200+ cm big forward.

Ffs I would love a thread that isn't just clogged up with mess by the same certain individual every single time.

Started a Charlie Cameron thread, turns into how we need a Daniel Talia in our side.. because you know he's the missing link to our success....

Story by Tom Brown...not Mr. Reliable 'dazz'. 

I wonder what Brown's average is this year? Just about everything he's thrown up has been thrown out.

I would expect Cameron will be well looked after by Brisbane.

They would be mad to let him go but if he wanted to move I'm sure we would welcome him with open arms.

I can't see Cameron leaving unless it's for crazy money, and I can't see us affording to pay him crazy money whilst offering an attractive team to join.

We've got a very expensive midfield and a lot of cash locked up in two tall defenders. And no first round pick.

I'd imagine we're looking around the key forward market but otherwise we'd be shipping out a lot of players and turning over the list dramatically to bring Cameron in. Worth a phone call and to find out what Brisbane are offering, but if North and Carlton are already involved then I'd imagine it's at the silly money level already.

Could very well be just the standard player manager ploy we see about this time every year to ensure a fat contract...

 

Getting back to Charlie Cameron, I wouldn't trust the reason anybody puts forward publicly for leaving Adelaide. He may well have wanted a trade "home" to Brisbane, but looking at the [censored] show that is Adelaide, and the way they hung Lever out to dry, you're always going to float a reason that is least likely to rile those in Adelaide when you're at the departure lounge. So I wouldn't automatcally assume he's not gettable.

That said, I'd rather we put the money into a KPF however.

  • REPORT: Geelong

    I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

  • PREGAME: Essendon

    Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

  • NON-MFC: Round 04

    Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

  • POSTGAME: Geelong

    The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.
