A elite key forward is an amazing luxury, but elite mids will always be more valuable. JJ, Sparrow etc are great but we need to plan for a future after Trac and Oliver

    Add on 3+ years of developing the high-pick mid/forward and they're 30+ and 28+

    Can anyone who has access let me know what this is about? It's probably nothing we don't already know but I am intrigued

    Just mentions us having Freo's first and second round pick. Nothing new or exciting.

    We have defensive and forward recruits... This year we should top up on mids.

    I think we need another young key forward and Kozzie type and then mids or best available.

    We will need more than JVR and Jefferson, if he makes it, as key forwards.

    Hopefully the Kozzie type becomes a little less important, after the original signs a long term contract extension with us.

    You could never have enough Kozzie’s, Red.

    Agree.

    Wishlist would include: 

    1. Mid/fwd
    2. Skillful mid who can play inside/wing/flanks
    3. Ruc/fwd

    We have enough small fwds given Chandler's development - assuming we retain Pickett that is. But maybe Nick Watson is too good if available?

    I’m not sure if there is a right or wrong but I’d hate for us to be linked to someone and it was telegraphed in April.

  • Quote

    I definitely think we will look at bundling up multiple first round picks this year and next year and trying to inject some top end midfield talent 

    I rate our developing keys in Jefferson and Van Rooyen. i am really optimistic what they will become 

    salary cap permitting i'd have a very serious look at Ben Mckay as a long term replacement for Steven May to extend our window

    Agreed. How many good KPFs in this year's crop that would go top 10? And are there any Kozzy types that are gettable with our likely picks? @Pennant St Dee @IvanBartul13 @ChaserJ @spirit of norm smith @Chelly

    @Demons11 has had pretty good mail in the past. We understand some things change and there's always lots of moving pieces. At least you don't do riddles...

    • GAMEDAY: Brisbane

      It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG after a dismal performance in Gather Round to face the reigning dual Premiers Brisbane. What do expect to see from the Dees today?

    • PREVIEW: Brisbane

      They really had me fooled when I picked them with great confidence to beat the Bombers at Gather Round last week. I should have recognised that nothing is more quintessentially Melbourne than defeating the undefeated early premiership favourite one week and losing to a winless cellar dweller on its way to establishing a record losing streak the next.

      Melbourne’s much vaunted finishing power evaporated at Adelaide Oval on Saturday afternoon, exposed for the third time in four years by its Essendon Gather Round hoodoo.
