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.

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.

  • REPORT: Gold Coast

    From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

  • CASEY: Gold Coast

    Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

  • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

    The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.

    It's Game Day and the Demons are back on the road again and this may be the last roll of the dice to get their 2025 season back on track as they take on the Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium.
