Need to see Chandler in the seniors.

Very good balance between attack and defence 

In his game. I would have him in rather than melksham

 

Agree has a lot more penetration in his kicking and can kick goals compared to anb and spargo 

Potentially could go to a higher level than them two as well just needs an opportunity

So with Jackson requesting a trade it's looking highly likely we will land Grundy. From there we will have to delist Baker and Rosman for 2 live selections in the draft. Taking into account we also have to upgrade Chandler to the seniors list so we'll most likely have to trade (Bedford or Hunt) or delist one of Melksham or Hibberd to have another pick in the draft.

I think Melksham only survives if one of Bedford or Hunt go. But I doubt it would be the latter as I feel Hunt is priming himself to take over Hibberd's role after he retires in 2023, if he decides to play on next year which i think most of us feel. 

With Daw retiring and most likely M.Brown cut and Chandler elevated we could have 3 rookie spots open. This could open the door for us re-rookie Rosman and even cut Melksham off the primary list and re-rookie him if he wants to have one last tilt at a flag next year. 

So our changes could be 

IN: Grundy, 2 live draft picks (Freo first rounder and Brisbane first rounder... i'll get to that) and Chandler upgrade for late pick. 

OUT: Jackson, pick 34 (for Grundy), Baker, Rosman and Melksham delisted from the senior list with the latter two being re-rookied. 

We also have a plethora of mid-late picks this year which I hope we can offer to Brisbane to nab their first round selection as they need points to land F/S Ashcroft. We'll also have a second first rounder from Freo next year including our own. So we'll be primed to have a red hot crack next year in what is said to be a bumper draft. 

Hunt, Hibberd and Bedford will hopefully all be re-signed. 

 

Goody will not sanction the delisting of Melk and then Rookie him, it just will not happen.

  • 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.
