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

    Hogan voiced frustration on radio during the week then finds himself out of the team, "managed". Wonder if he's considering his future now too

    We would love Hogan down forward right now.

    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?

    How is that breaking news, when it has been in the media for a few weeks?

    Sam McClure is but a shadow of our own news breaker, ET the WA News Wizard.

    Jesse is a part-time nut job. Would fit perfectly back in the Deez forward line as the counter balance to Maysie down back.

    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.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?
