Wont he just go to Carlton?  Was minutes away from getting there last trade period

That was last year.  
Does the interest necessarily persist?

 

I don’t believe he was set on Carlton, he just wanted to get back and they were the ones who showed the most intent, although not enough intent obviously.

We should definitely be having a long hard look.

Don't be like that, dazzle.  Think positive.

Nibbler and a fourth rounder should be more than enough.

We can chuck in both Wagners as a sweetener

I think that's too much.  Swans would need to add Heeney to do that deal.

Tom McDonald

now that raises an interesting query; what's he worth?

like sideshow bob at north, he's an old fashioned key position player out of favour in an era geared towards mobility

Ask Jack Martin.

Requested to be traded to Essendon one year, then Carltank the next.


Can he play inside midfield? If not, Goodwin won’t be keen.

In 2018 when he was pivotal in our success, he was more than an old fashioned KPP; mobility for size was a major asset.  Unfortunately, probably / possibly due to a foot injury, he has never nearly approached that mobility and his confidence has shattered with it.

2018 feels like a long long time ago 

Future first round. T.McDonald and Preuss.


Brayshaw + a 1st would be Sydney's asking price.....a lot to pay for a small forward!

And a couple of hours later, "Must get Dan Butler".

 

He’s been incredible this year. He’s won them multiple games off his own boot.

  • REPORT: West Coast

    On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

  • POSTGAME: West Coast

    Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
