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?

    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.

    • NON-MFC: Round 06

      The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.
