We might not be able to afford much, but I would be going after Bruhn. He gets so little attention and media but is a very good footballer. Taranto and Hopper will ask too many $, and Bobby Hill  is too inconsistent.

Love Bruhn as a talent but he's had a up & down year with patches where he's looked fantastic and other games where he's been barely sighted. Guess it's expected given his games played & inconsistency of role at the Giants.

Coincidentally has a similar skillset to Cerra who we wanted last year and would cost half the price, but is on the smaller side size wise which we don't tend to like

The end of the ultimate dream team.

Countless early draft picks. Players traded for more draft picks.

Outside mids that dreams are made of. 

Why did they fail... was it just coaching or did their drafting and pursuit of a free flowing style of game not fit the close checking style of play that many teams adopted

Wouldn't mind the younger Green at the right price

If we're going to raid the Giants, Toby Greene please. He can be the exception to our no DH rule

Not interested in anyone else on their list. They all put in when it suits them whereas Toby Greene is consistently brilliant

Or the other Green. I would flip a coin for either.

So he's not the one doing the managing?

A club with no soul.

Had Mark Williams stayed at GWS no doubt they would be a Premiership Club.

Bruhn would be a great pickup. 

Inside/outside. Has better ball use than most of our mids and an upgrade on Harmes, Sparrow, Jordan in terms of quality. 

Hope we have a crack.

Unfortunately I think he's pretty much a done deal to Geelong by the sounds of it.

    2024 Player Reviews: #36 Kysaiah Pickett

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
