Angus Brayshaw Re-Signs Until 2028

Recommended Posts

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.

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.

You’re right. 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.

Because if you haven't noticed old timer this is a football forum related to all football discussions.

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.

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.

All the Brayshaw siblings are extremely close. 

This has been well publicised and confirmed by Angus in the past.

Why the pejorative comment?  As someone who is “older” I find that quite offensive.

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.

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.

Well, if he leaves as a 2-time premiership player at the end of this year, as much as it’d hurt, he’d have my blessing

From what I’ve heard he will sign and there’s a little bit of “I like the speculation” about the hold off…

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."

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.”

As someone who is old AF, I object to the word  ' old ' 

Can we replace it with the words ' more experienced ' ?? 

Thank you !!!

    BLOODY BLUES by Meggs

    The conclusion to Narrm’s home and away season was the inevitable let down by the bloody Blues  who meekly capitulated to the Bombers.   The 2024 season fixture handicapped the Demons chances from the get-go with Port Adelaide, Brisbane and Essendon advantaged with enough gimme games to ensure a tough road to the finals, especially after a slew of early season injuries to star players cost wins and percentage.     As we strode confidently through the gates of Prin

    Melbourne’s most important player who dominated the first half of the season until his untimely injury in the Kings Birthday clash put an end to his season. At the time, he was on his way to many personal honours and the club in strong finals contention. When the season did end for Melbourne and Petracca was slowly recovering, he was engulfed in controversy about a possible move of clubs amid claims about his treatment by the club in the immediate aftermath of his injury.

    Strong marking youngster who plays forward and relief ruck, continued to make significant strides forward in his career path. The Demons have high hopes for van Rooyen as he stakes his claim to become an elite attacking forward.

    LIVE AND LET DIE by Meggs

    The Demons’ impressive late season charge to finals will most likely come unstuck this Saturday evening when the Bombers blow up the also-ran Blues in the Ikon Park double-header.   To mangle McCartney, what does it matter to ya? To have any chance to play next week Narrm has got a job to do and needs to do it well.  We’ve got to give the Pie sheilas hell, say live and let die! It’s Indigenous Round for this game and the chance to celebrate and engage with Aboriginal and Torres

It remains to be seen whether Simon Goodwin will persevere with him in attack or return him to the backline where he was an important cog in the club’s 2021 premiership success.

    After a bright start to the season, playing mostly in defence, Howes seemed to lose his way in midseason but fought back with some good performances at Casey and finished the year back at AFL level.

    Originally an NBL basketballer with the Brisbane Bullets, he moved across town in 2019 to the AFL Lions where he played 19 games before crossing to Melbourne where he was expected to fill a role as a back up ruckman/key forward. Unfortunately, didn’t quite get there although he did finish equal sixth in Casey’s best and fairest award. Date of Birth: 23 February 1999 Height: 198cm Games CDFC: 14 Goals CDFL: 13

    Sadly, had to wrap up a great career in midstream on the back of multiple concussions which culminated in the Maynard hit in the 2023 Qualifying Final. His loss to the club was inestimable over and above his on field talent given his character and leadership qualities, all of which have been sorely missed.
