    Not sure how we engineer that from both a Salary and draft picks perspective but would love to see him in Melbourne colours.

    There’s talk of Matt Crouch possibly looking to come back to Victoria. Not exactly the class we need in the middle, because t could help out Clarrie and Trac with clearances.

    He's a Dee's fan, so surely he plays for $20 and a hot dog a game so we can fit him in right?

    Still is! You can only ever have neutral feelings for GWS, it's been scientifically proven.

    it's less rather than more likely that we can afford those key giants and their top tier talent like (the long term signed up) whitfield,  greene, kelly, coniglio, plus the really exciting green, hopper or taranto

    i'd look at their next tier of rebounding defenders like isaac cumming, or the mids like o'halloran, perryman, and bruhn

    they all look like they'll be very good afl players and all in their 'pre-contract' year, with new deals due at the end of 2022

    the players i'm still most keen on us chasing remain brayden maynard from the filth, ed richards from footscray, and jake riccardi from gw$

    Seems like Taranto can only play in the guts, though. Would push viney/Harmes/Brayshaw out further.

    And just like that Leon Cameron reads Demonland and thinks Taranto can go forward to cover for Greene and do it magnificently. This isn’t having a shot at you Mickey, also thought he was a pure mid.

    Perryman would be a nice fit for us

    Don’t pay the Perryman. Don’t even fix a price.

    Even though i never put much stock in what Journo's said, but our cap is meant to be pretty tight. We'd have to lose a fair few players surely?

    Also we lack currency currently and i imagine the club want Mac Andrew in above any free agent we can realistically nab.

  • Quote

    Just flicking it around in my head - anyone else able to enlighten me about Dylan Stephens' situation?

    Could we offer him membership in the wingers club?

  • Quote

    why do so many peope keep suggesting inside mids, like tom green isn't coming nor is he a good option for us, neither taranto or hopper either. it's our strongest position on the ground and we have youngsters who are coming through behind our 24yo "leaders" and we've got first choice mids at other clubs prepared to limit their time in there to suit the teams needs

    How can we get Finn Callaghan?

    Guy looks like an absolute weapon and would give a lot for him 

    Acquire pick 2

    Sam Weideman says hi

    Marc Murphy too

    Sam Weideman is not picked in our team for tomorrow. With TMac out it seemed perfect timing to give Sam some game time in this crucial part of the season. Melksham CHF and Sam not on the bench. You better say "Hi Sam" real soon IMHO.

    What prompted it? Not watching

    Maynard would be a great get.  Not sure the Pies would accept a 2nd round pick for him.  It probably depends on whether the Weid stays.  If Weid says he’s moving on, we have more trade weight.    Pies could be tempted if we offered Weid and a future 2nd round pick.

    Stephens was taken at # 5 in the same year as Kosi and Jackson. He is suited to the centre.

    Inside or outside?

    What the Pies will accept I suggest will come down to how much more salary cap challenge they have left.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

      The Demons hit the road in Round 8, heading to Perth to face the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium. With momentum building, the Dees will be aiming for a third straight victory to keep their season revival on course. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG to face the Tigers in their annual Blockbuster on ANZAC Eve for the 10th time. The Dees will be desperate to reignite their stuttering 2025 campaign and claim just their second win of the season. Can the Demons dig deep and find that ANZAC Spirit to snatch back to back wins?
