Sounds like GWS and GCS are going to get raided, teams eyeing off players from both sides already, not sure who we'd want from those teams but i imagine both will lose a couple this off season

    Caddy is god awful 

    I would hate him to have him on our list 

    Handy is a great role player and plays the wing very well.  Has been pushed out of a three time premiership team.  All I'm saying is his type who will be cheap and play a handy role.

    lol, caddy or polec.. no thanks

    Polec is a very good wingman.  Which is why he was played big money to leave Port.  In a good side he would thrive.  Caddy is also a good wingman and gets into good spots, always seams to be open and has the rich defensive game style in him.

    These guys woukd slot into out side nicely, they aren't going to be superstars but that's not what we need atm,  im also just throwing these two up as examples of pretty good players you coukd get for next to nothing.

    Have heard from a normally reliable source that Brayden Maynard is a certainty to be a Dee next year?

    If I was a groupie I would ask you to p.m me with your inside info, but because he is just your average beast defender with a concrete jaw who can find a target 60m away and play on smalls AND talls, I wont ask you to do that.

    What size is this fish? Could it be the elusive big fish we've been trying to land for years? We probably need a riddle here.

    Solid mail Cerra will be a Tiger next year.

    Seriously can that happen with Bolton wanting a new contract? Unless he’s part of the deal?

    We don't need either Caddy or Polec. Brayshaw is doing a good enough job on the wing and we have the best wingman in the comp in Langdon. I don't want to see anymore rejects at the club. Go to the draft we have some academy kids and a father son to look forward to.

    I haven't seen many of these guys other than Lynch play well

    We draft well and don't need list cloggers

    We are becoming a destination club too 

    I'm happy for us to continue to build our culture, set even higher standards and keep money in the bank for the right player

    Billing’s anyone? 

    Nah not sold on the method?

    I think Maynard is someone we should definitely bring into the club as well as Quinton Narkle. Burgess could get Narks body right and when fit he is a good in and out player. 

  • Quote

    My dream is Josh Kelly. 

    If we could somehow manage to fit and land him, we'd be the complete setup. 

    He is precisely what we're missing aside from perhaps another small dangerous mercurial high pressure forward. 

    @Grand New Flag, heard anything?

    Would be willing to give up a decent player and hope any of our top players coming out of contract would accept pay cuts.

    This is a good list to give people an idea of what is realistic this year, we've just re-contracted Gawn, Trac, Clarry and Salem on good coin, while the likes of Lever have redone their contract to allow those guys the coin to stay. While we'd be a very attractive destination now (game style, age demographic etc.) we simply don't have the cap space or the assets (no 1st round this year) to actually bring in big name, however it doesn't mean we can't look at free agents or specific depth pieces.

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?
