    If Kozzie stays with us, I wouldn’t think we would be chasing him, given our last list changes.

    If Kozzie goes, I would think our Port targets would be Rozee and Butters, though they might be ungettable.

    Good news would be a Kozzie multi year contract extension.

    Dunno. Good tall forwards are tough to find

    DD 

    I amazes me we have JVR ready to debut and MJ starting on his training wheels plus Tmac BBB, the resting rucks Petty and Adams who has played forward and the Schache about to erupt at his new Club.

    oh and Fritta best medium forward in the game. 50 goals plus every year. 

    Why do we need another tall forward???

    So for tall fwds we have 2 kids that have never played, 2 injury prone old blokes and Schache who couldn’t secure a fwd spot in 8 years at the dogs. Oh and 2 rucks who arent fwds

    in 2022 lack of tall forwards was our biggest issue. 

    im hopeful JVR will be a player but we can’t hang out hopes on a kid. And I’m hopeful T Mac can get his body right. But a quality fwd in his early 20’s wound be a good get

    Fully agree DD. With JVR I suspect only one of BB and TMac will play consistently and with Schache back it provides the opportunity for Petty to permanently move forward. By the end of 2023 there may not be room for TMac and BB in the side, although both could go on for another couple of years if they are fit.

    Another option, but not my preferred one is Petty forward and JVR back.

    Can't imagine we would be able to afford him.

    But really rate him,has all the attributes to be a very good player.  If we could somehow get him(trading kossie not an option) that would be great!

    Rozee has a strong MFC family connection.... would have been good to get him from the start.

    (Not that the family thing helped with landing Prestia... although we were a dogs breakfast then)

    JVR does not need to go back IMO with Turner Jed Adams developing Tommo available and fitter this year after his first year following ACL  And Tmac could extend his career by going back IMO. Also Schache might grab the spot.

    His extended family, who will remain anonymous here, have been long suffering Demon people. Sitting in the same seats on level 1 on the wing of the Olympic stand for as long as I can remember…. that’s all you’ll get from me on this one.

    Currently toiling away from the SANFL after starting his career off well. Kicked 32 goals in just his second AFL season. Talls are he'll be assessing his options at years end with a few Vic clubs interested.

    He's 191cm tall forward who plays more of 3rd option.

    Everyone remembers our significant interest in the 2020 draft where we were hoping he'd slip to our second pick (Trent Rivers pick).

    Would have preferred Finlayson when he was available

    always kicks goals and presents

    Was never going anywhere but SA for very important family reasons. So irrelevant.

    If our next three years are Gawn, Fritsch, and JVR in the forward line. I am trying to think what we need to compliment that. To me, Brown is perfect for this year because he is a lead up tall who can cause a contest. Move it quick and he will kick a few.

    Georgiades is similar to that while not being that big body (9cms shorter than BBB). 

    Keep an iron in the fire but our options open.

    OOC this year.

    If he leaves Port WCE would be the most likely.  He is from WA and WCE tried to get him as part of the first Rioli deal but was in contract and Port wouldn't trade him.

    Great hands but set-shots very iffy. Working with chocco might help in that regard. Not entirely sure we need him given we have Fritsch and JVR and Jefferson showing early promise, but worth discussing for sure.

    rpfc - still not sold on Max being included as a tall forward on a permanent / regular basis, but with TMc and BBB looking closer to the end we do have  Jefferson developing OK at Casey, and Shack in similar age demographics as Georgiades.  
    I wouldn’t discard interest completely, but not to me a top priority.

    Smalls. Kozzy, Chandler and a Papley/Weightman type that can hit the foot of the Gawn and JVR contests. We'll still need the ANBs and Spargos, but that's where we could really excel.

    Unless of course, we landed someone like Ben King, leaving Max able to play forward or behind the ball, in tandem with Grundy.

    JVR, Jefferson and Sestan developing, Brown and McDonald both contracted for another year plus Schache showing promising early VFL form.

    I think Georgiades is talented, but don't see him as a priority.

    It would have to be a cheap trade to bring in any player who wasn't going to replace someone in our best 23.

    What would they ask for in trade? I'm guessing they would want Freos second rounder and we would offer our second round pick. I'm not sure I would do it and would rather load up on kids this year.

    • REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
