Sydney_Demon 1,175 Posted May 19, 2022 Posted May 19, 2022 Am I missing something here? Everyone assumes that if he leaves it will only be to Freo to join his brother. I accept that he's not going to go to West Coast, but the market is not restricted to Fremantle. Accepting that, these Melbourne family vs Perth family vs where his girlfriend wants to live arguments are very simplistic. Quote
David-Demon 570 Posted May 19, 2022 Posted May 19, 2022 Why are we talking about losing any players at all. And what do you know that HQ or others maybe privy to ? I suggest we all let nature take it's course and hope and pray that sanity prevails and the Team stays united as one. Next thing I probably will read is all MFC players are moving to other Clubs and that Casey players are our number one Team... (Well if that happens we will still win the Premiership anyways ) . Come on guys let's support and encourage our playing group in the belief that they will be united as one. Quote

We should not be discussing matters relating to the footy club on a footy forum. Andy, shut her down. Nasher, turn the servers off and let the gerbils that run them, run free. ahhhhh, that’s better. 2 2 Quote

Ungarieboy 457 Posted May 19, 2022 Posted May 19, 2022 Don't know if it's been mentioned, but not playing in the midfield, and playing with Melbourne where there is more support on the ground (less heavy lifting) would likely extend his career by a few years!!!!! Particularly with his concussion issues. This also reduces financial differences over the entirety of his football career. 1 Quote
Ungarieboy 457 Posted May 19, 2022 Posted May 19, 2022 (edited) Also playing with your brother can be a negative as well. Not all siblings are best friends, or buddy buddy; and even when they do get on well - don't necessarily like sharing the same close friendship groups. Edited May 19, 2022 by Ungarieboy Quote

Marcus94 100 Posted May 20, 2022 Posted May 20, 2022 I just can't see Gus leaving. I listened to the Dyl & Friends podcast the other day and Angus was explaining that Danielle and her Mum and her sisters have been focusing a lot of their time and efforts into the Danny Frawley centre. Gus has most of his family here and same with Danielle so for Gus to move to WA just to be with his brothers doesn't make much sense to me. 3 Quote
Nascent 9,345 Posted May 20, 2022 Posted May 20, 2022 Andrew Brayshaw comes out of contract in 2025 as a restricted free agent. Viney will be 31 and out of contract while Gawn and Levers deal will have expired creating even more salary space. No reason we can't flip the narrative on this story in the coming years and have a Brayshaw reunion at the dees. 6 Quote

Deedubs 157 Posted May 22, 2022 Posted May 22, 2022 Any week now and I think a decision will be made by both Jackson and Brayshaw. I think maybe during our bye. Quote
Demonland 74,429 Posted May 26, 2022 Author Posted May 26, 2022 OUT-OF-CONTRACT Melbourne star Angus Brayshaw is yet to put a timeline on when he will begin contract negotiations. The 26-year-old is a restricted free agent, and has connections in the west, with brother Andrew playing for Fremantle. He told AFL.com.au his recent move to defence has been his sole focus through the Demons' 10-0 start to the year but that he knew a crunch time was fast approaching. "I could roll out any sort of cliché, you could take your pick. With that stuff, round one I got thrown into the backline, having prepared for the wing all pre-season. Very, very quickly, my focus has shifted from everything that surrounds football to how to play and execute this role," Brayshaw said. "There are super high standards, we pride ourselves on our defence back there, so if I'm thinking about something else or not 100 per cent focused, you get found out pretty quickly. And that stuff just takes care of itself if you focus on your footy. "I understand this is a reality and these things will probably start popping up soon, when I need to sit down and sort it out, but I'm in a good position, I think, off the back of 10 solid weeks of footy. "I'll sit down – I don't know when that'll be – but I'll figure that out when it comes. I'm looking forward to getting it out of the way, because that's seems to be all anyone wants to know these days. What will be, will be." 1 Quote
Red and Blue realist 2,063 Posted May 26, 2022 Posted May 26, 2022 https://www.sen.com.au/news/2022/05/25/star-dee-likely-to-stay-the-team-to-watch-in-the-trade-period-and-more/ Leading AFL journalist Callum Twomey has provided an update on a number of curious trade and contract situations around the league. Melbourne star Angus Brayshaw, North Melbourne forward Cam Zurhaar, Gold Coast’s strong draft hand and more all analysed. See his update below: Angus Brayshaw (Melbourne) “He’s put off talks for the first half of the year, but obviously been really good for the Dees in that role across half-back,” Twomey told SEN Breakfast. “He’s looking forward to getting it out of the way, because that’s all anyone wants to talk about. I think that’s a pretty good sign in what lies ahead for him at the Demons. “Still no timeline, but I think there’s a strong likelihood that he’ll be at the Dees next year. He’s a restricted free agent, but Melbourne has its bye in Round 14 … I’d expect some movement by then.” Quote
Demonstone 23,570 Posted May 26, 2022 Posted May 26, 2022 "Getting it out of the way" is a strong indication that he intends to re-sign with us. 2 Quote
dees189227 12,512 Posted May 26, 2022 Posted May 26, 2022 Look obviously I want him to stay but if he does choose to leave & plays in Perth with his brother then I'll understand, but if he leaves & plays for another Victorian club then I'll be shattered Quote
