Would rather Phil Matera. That bloke always killed us ?

Sure did. Averaged 3+ goals a game against us - more than he did against any other club.

Ben Brown or Jesse Hogan? Who do you go for? It sounds like both would come relatively cheaply.

Good question! Lean towards Hogan because if he's not kicking bags he can still run and get up the ground but you do worry about those injuries.

Don't think Brown will be that cheap. Still a good player, despite the ridiculous hair and run in for set shot. Had a few issues this year, from what others have said here. Jesse is a spent force.

I think we should have a crack at Riley Collier-Dawkins. I know inside mid isn't what we need but this kid is a big body with legspeed and a heap of potential. If we're been bold and willing to let go of Viney or others we shouldn't be afraid to make a few offers.

Worst case scenario is it keeps Richmond honest and ups what they have to pay him.

 

Really remember we have Jacko!!!

Will alter  the whole Balance of our mids

You can't push him out the door and then expect the world for him.

Jesse may well be done.

Who the hell knows A F!

I don’t think Norf will trade Brown for less than late 1st or early 2nd. But they have certainly mistimed his trade value peak. Last year he probably would've got them top 10 pick.

A big if, but if he improves our forward line significantly, our pick 22 might get him. Remembering 22 will end up being about 30 with all the academy/fs/FA compo picks

I love the idea of a Hogan return but can you imagine Peter Bell allowing a fair trade value after spending so much to get him there?

Touring Brisbane today.

Supposedly it’s rubbish that he is touring Brisbane due to the hub restrictions.  Daniher would be out of the hub and therefore not allowed to meet with a team currently playing.

zoom tour?

I’d like to see us make a try for Alex Witherden from the Lions. Seemingly out of favour with Fagan. Would fit in perfectly to MFC as the small defender to replace Jetta.  He had excellent skills, good pace and composure.  Offer a nice 3 year deal and perhaps a pick acquired in a potential Preuss trade.

from memory his last deal with the bears was quite a big one; will we be able to afford him?

Joe Daniher ??

Alex Witherden Lions. ✅

Jared Polec Kangas  ?

Ben Brown Kangas ?

Quinton Narkle. Cats  ?

My preference is Lockhart to replace Jetta! Heart for heart!

Rumours about Jesse Hogan.

Less well known of Newton's Laws and one of the least useful of the 'universal constants' in physics.

I think @Demons11 had some mail around Jesse being available in one of the threads, any updates?

What are the rumours? Enlighten us all. There is that much stuff made up about players at this time of year, so why not just spell it out? Is it that you think he is coming back to the city of Melbourne

Haven’t heard anything since last week.  I’ll keep you updated if I hear something.

  • GAMEDAY: St. Kilda

    It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

  • REPORT: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    The Demons come face to face with St. Kilda for the second time this season for their return clash at Marvel Stadium on Sunday. Who comes in and who goes out?
