Lloyd: Trade Oliver or Brayshaw

Lloyd and Cornes are top of the tree when it comes to voices in the footy media I completely tune out.

Karl Langdon completes the trifecta but fortunately we get to avoid most of his nonsense over in the west.

    Lloyd is saying that we need to balance the midfield. He isn't wrong.

    We are super strong on the inside. On the outside we have Langdon, Tomlinson, vandenBerg, Jones and ANB. 

    Langdon was a second rounder for a reason.T Tomlinsonlooks like a mistake. I love VDB but he is playing that role because we require him to not because he is suited. Likewise Jones. ANB shouldn't get another game.

    If we replaced these guys with two hard running players with decent pace we would balance our list without giving up to much they don't need to be A graders.

    I think most agree we need to balance our midfield, but the simple fact of the matter is you don’t trade a player like Oliver.

    Petracca - Oliver - Brayshaw.   The holy trinity in the midfield. They will be dominating for years to come.

    Lloyd has no idea.

    viney>brayshaw

    I don’t want to lose Brayshaw but I sense he is frustrated at not getting the opportunity he wants in the middle. I would be if I was him. Let’s hope a performance like tonight reminds potential suitors of his ability in the middle and we are compensated well ie enough to buy/recruit some outside class

    tonight showed how overstocked we are with midfielders. which was a positive with Brayshaw 29 possies and a goal more than stepping up. 

    I think Goodwin needs to change things up and give him more time, let Viney and Oliver go forward as we do have very good back up.

    I like the look of Sparrow now but have to say even the day he was recruited, why ? if he comes good he is yet another tough contested midfielder.

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
