Something stinks.

The Hawks gave up a hell of a lot for this guy and they're just gonna let him go? I read that this guy checked out a while back, and while there's no doubt he's talented, he's inconsistent, and I don't think we need another one of those.

Full house already, thx.

 

I thought this was a lol thread?!
 

Wingard?! He’s gone from choccies to boiled lollies very quickly, a trade the “incredible, invincible, amazing” Graham Wright and Clarko would desperately want to have back.
Seemed crazy at the time  and worse now (like [censored] terrible now). 

Why the hell would anyone want this player now, it’s been a disaster and at 27 he ain’t getting any better (besides looking for Deegirl).

Nothing stinks, besides the thread, people bag Spargs and Kossi. I’d rather have ANB than Mr Wingard.

Could be worth a look, for a discounted price.

Talent doesn't just dry up... application and appetite maybe, but like Harley, talent is talent, and you've got to take some risks sometimes to acquire it.

If we trade anything for this guy I'll hand it in.


On of the trades that started the Hawks downfall. Was a gun 6 years ago but done now

My take on Wingard is he is narcissistic self-centred, year ago in a interview he said he does not know any players out side his own team, he does not do his homework  on other players that he plays on, the opposition players do their homework on him, and since he does not do his, he can't work out how to beat his opponents.

Highly skilled and talented.
 

Perfect player to take us to the Premiership.

 

Definitely grab him and fulfill our destiny.  Future 1st rounder is good buying

For all the mockery of this trade idea, and I for one don't think he fits our group in the slightest with his purported character traits: I still do find it interesting that I read somewhere he's the number 1 ranked small forward in the comp. Unless I'm mistaken.

Mate this thread was killed on Monday until you decided to bring it up 7 hours ago with your stupid gif.

If you want to kill threads then simply don't randomly reply 2 days later.

Jesus he is the exact type of player we desperately need. Just has that x factor and class on the outside that we're lacking.

DD36. You raised and gave it oxygen. It was pathetic. I know it’s your opinion but I have to call it out “He is the exact type of player we desperately need”.   Really? he’s soft. Lacks run , poor pressure acts.  His kicking and disposal efficiency are actually poor. Not even close to the type of player we need at all.
With Brown onboard hopefully today, we want hard running skilled mids to compliment our midfield bulls. Players with endurance who can run both ways.  Two midfield runners would top off our team imv. That’s the priority.

Agreed with you, hard-running skilled mids are the priority.

Then (assuming we have B.Brown locked in) I see our next priorities being someone capable of shutting-down speedy small forwards and a potent small forward ourselves.

  • CASEY: Geelong

    There was a time in the second quarter of the game at the Cattery on Friday afternoon when the Casey Demons threatened to take the game apart against the Cats. The Demons had been well on top early but were struggling to convert their ascendancy over the ground until Tom Fullarton’s burst of three goals in the space of eight minutes on the way to a five goal haul and his best game for the club since arriving from Brisbane at the end of 2023. He was leading, marking and otherwise giving his opponents a merry dance as Casey grabbed a three goal lead in the blink of an eye. Fullarton has now kicked ten goals in Casey’s three matches and, with Melbourne’s forward conversion woes, he is definitely in with a chance to get his first game with the club in next week’s Gather Round in Adelaide. Despite the tall forward’s efforts - he finished with 19 disposals and eight marks and had four hit outs as back up to Will Verrall in the second half - it wasn’t enough as Geelong reigned in the lead through persistent attacks and eventually clawed their way to the lead early in the last and held it till they achieved the end aim of victory.

  • 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?
