Family are big Demon fans too.

I am aware that doesnโ€™t matter anymore - just a good story if it happens.

    What about tmac and future 2ndย  or 3rd rounder for Treloar and Philips. We pay Treloar inflated wage, they pay Tmac's inflated wage

    Surely our attention turns to getting this bloke now with Smith choosing Cats?

    Just walk in to a meeting with him, and tell him he can have the left wing at the G.

    Get it done!

    Some have suggested that offloading tmac is more about having room in the cap for a bunch of re-signings next year, including Mr C Oliver, rather than fitting Brown in.

    Also, the Brown contract might be back loaded, though that seemsย out of favour these days, tmac being evidence where a struggling player gets big money late in their deal

    Besides the obvious need for Phillips on the wing who ive been saying for a while would be a great addition, his brother Will is touted as a top 10ย pick this year who from all reports is an absolute gun and future club captain. I know weโ€™re nowhere near that sort of range at the moment, but from what others have said we could certainly package up some players and picks to send to GWS to get into that spot.ย Iโ€™d be getting brother Tom on board regardless, but the potential of getting his brother either this years draft or when he comes out of contract could be a massive bonus. From Cal Twomeys write up heโ€™s a goal kicking mid who looks to be able play with real breakaway speed.ย

    Tom's brother Ed is at St Kilda. They don't have another brother... they have a sister.

    Those highlights weren't that impressive. Kicks seemed to float and didn't see much hard running to present an option.

    Assuming Brown is secured I would be turning all my attention to Tom Phillips, including picking brother Ed up from the Saintsย on the way through whoโ€™s is OOC. ย If not and we can clear some space with Tmac any half decent offer for Polec should be next port of call.

    Narkle also interests me as a worthily OOC option asย well as any potentialย way to get Jack Sinclair out of the saints. More run and outside polish is needed once we land the big fella.

    Aside from Brown, would you not prefer Jordan Clark over all of those. I would. He has pace as well, probably more than the rest.ย 
    I would go hard for him and look at the others as secondary.ย

    No. Philips provenย ability to gut run the wing consistently at qualityย and gettability does it for me. What would it take to get the contracted Clark out of Geelong? He is contracted and would not be costingย them much yet. If he was good enough he would have got a game over others this year so he no sure thing in my eyes.ย They will need some quality young players when the aged care plan #getdangeraflag fails. I am looking for us to get role players we need at a suitable value for worth.ย

    On comparing the 2,ย while Phillips would be easier to get, Clark is a better kick andย 4.5ย years younger. If Tom Mac joins Preuss at GWS, we could get involved in the Cameron deal and maybe get Clark from the Cats. I think they were prepared to let him go home to WA,ย so on the way there he could play 10 years with us first.ย 
    I am not against getting Phillips, just would love to get Clark.ย

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kateโ€™s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwoodโ€™s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

    • CASEY: Williamstown

      The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Narrm time isnโ€™t a standard conceptโ€”itโ€™s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

      The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking. ย We filled our boots with percentage โ€” now a whopping 520.7% โ€” and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourneโ€™s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasnโ€™t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's ย six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his teamโ€™s unfulfilled potential rang true โ€ฆ well, almost.ย
