Aggressive, known goal kicker, free agent, will provide another big target inside 50 best mates with Tomlinson.

Also, the highest paid player in the game. Would love the have him though.


 

Overated.


Apparently the league's highest paid player. Do we have a spare 1.2 million + in the salary cap?

Lose Viney, Jones and tmac and we might be in business

Sometimes you have to go big and be bold to get results.  Even if he only performs for one season or even just one finals series and it all clicks.  That might be the one season that sees us land an elusive flag.  From the Sun's player ratings post their premiership...

TOM BOYD 9

Pay rise? Early goals huge, contested marking enormous and did it all banged-up after throwing himself at Mummy last week. Whether it was Peter Gordon or Jason McCartney, it was the trade that broke the drought.

Tom Boyd showed why he went pick No.1 and why he’s worth the money. Picture: George Salpigtidis"...

Sometimes one player can make the difference.  I recall Hogan sledging Boyd as he sat out a match one day at the G against us after copping a sledge himself.

At that stage Boyd was getting pilloried by the press at the time for being an over paid bust.

Well he who laughs last longest. One has a premiership medal around his neck, the other struggling over in Perth.

It pays to be bold i reckon.  At least you never die wondering.  Can't see it happening but i'd be making this our No.1 recruiting goal and leaving no stone unturned to get it done.

He's not that. Reckon May/Lever will comfortably hold him

How? Having a down year, but his record speaks for itself. The guy averages 2.5 goals a game and has at least another 100 games in his prime barring serious injury. Seriously, with all due to respect to Neitz and Lyon, he'd be our best full forward since Fred Fanning.

Don't think we'd be in the race, but it would be downright negligent not to throw our hat in the ring.

or perhaps Norm Smith.

Not true. They also go to clubs that can pay them lots.

An AA FB holds everyone, hardly a measuring stick.

Either way, Weid is left to kick 4 on Tomlinson/OMac.

Ok, will rephrase.....Gun free agents, who have not tasted the ultimate success, only go to clubs with premiership potential. So Cameron won’t come here

  • CASEY: Southport

    The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

  • PREGAME: Sydney

    Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?

  • GAMEDAY: Brisbane

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons are back on the road with a massive challenge ahead — facing the reigning premiers, the Brisbane Lions, at their Gabba fortress. The Lions are licking their wounds after a shock draw in Tasmania last week, while Melbourne’s season hangs in the balance. Can the Dees defy the odds and pull off a miracle to keep their razor thin finals hopes alive?
