    I've been thinking the same thing myself with Brayshaw, he has proven himself a true team player this year on the wing and has probably done everything the coaching staff has asked of him despite what others may think.

    Never rated Brayshaw before this year. I'm sure the coaches love him to death right now, and would only move him if they had a better replacement on the non-Langdon wing.

    It's well known you have to pay overs to prise a player out of his current club. And his manager will be making MFC well aware of that. "Show me the money!!!!!" Do we have the cap space?

    But ...

    Carlton??? One of two clubs in turmoil?

    Also ... flag contender. Never say never.

    Not when someone is wanting to come home and you are the ladder leader with a list set for 5 years of premiership tilts and the best culture in the game. Does he want cash or the chance at cups?

    Gus's brother plays at Freo.

    That's a straight swap for Cerra.

    Unless Gus request a trade then this doesn’t happen

    Don’t understand any talk of trading Gus whatsoever 

    It is trade talk no one really knows what the club is looking for, a bit of info gets out once the season is done but really we have no idea what position the club will take.  To me our biggest need is for some outside class, Cerra has this and to get this done Brayshaw is someone that Fremantle may want with picks.  Will this get done most likely not but if there was a chance of landing Cerra you would think that Brayshaw would be a key in making this happen.  For one making cap room and two having something to offer Fremantle to get the deal done.

    Some posters have no idea. Don't stress.

    Anyone mentioning Gus or even Jackson and Rivers has no idea and or is a troll.

    I like the Weed, but straight swap should get it done.

    I think people want to see an Ed Langdon running clone on the other wing. Gus plays his role and we've won the minor premiership, don't really want to tinker too much in that department

    Why on earth would we trade Gus? Cerra is a good player but 750k!? 

    we need to use F/A to round out the edges on our list so we can go for back to back flags. NO SELLING THE FARM

    I'm not suggesting we trade Gus, but wasn't he given a new contract the same year he finished 3rd in the Brownlow?

    He would be on healthy money himself

    I'm sure he's on healthy money, but i don't wanna speculate on what that is, he's doing everything he's asked to do to earn it so he's fine regardless of what he's on

    You don't want an Ed Langdon Clone, but adding a highly skilled outside mid is something that would make our team better.  Ed is  running machine but like most out mids lacks that polish by foot, adding someone that can get the ball on the outside and hit targets by foot will make us better.  

    Adding Brayshaw into the topic is more what will it cost us to get this trade done, no point have a trade topic if you don't discuss what it will cost you or what you are prepared to give up.  It is all hypothetical and we have varying opinions.

    Understandable, My main point was defensively I think Angus does a great team role as you can see by his intercept possessions/spoils. He does have some clangers by foot but reads the position well and plays a big role for the team. 

    I'm just a bit cautious that if we replace with someone with superior polish there is a risk that of losing that specific cog/role that Gus is playing. I could be wrong, any replacement might be able to do both, but a risk to change a formula that has taken us to the minor premiership

    No thanks.

    "Adam Cerra is a certainty to be at Carlton next year with Melbourne the only other side interested and unable to get a deal done unless they traded a star talent like Luke Jackson."

    Hahaha I am sure Freo have come calling and we have been screening their calls. 

    Absolutely zero chance we are trading Jackson, especially while he is in contract. Even if he was homesick, and  there is zero indication to suggest he is, we would back ourselves to keep him.

    Yeah give them Jackson, throw in Gawn as a sweetener.

    Surely Jetta, Chandler, Baker and Vandenberg can get the job done.

    • REPORT: Geelong

      I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • POSTGAME: Geelong

      The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.
