We have the picks 

We have the goal kicking coach

Perhaps Haroldo would prefer life out of the Carlton spotlight...

    Give Carlton a second and they can pay 150k of his salary up to 2030.

    The most important thing is cap space. I'm pretty sure we don't have much to lure anyone? Unless we lose some players (Jordon, Harmes, another) and find another club to take the last year of the contract of Tmac or BBB ?

    Although I'm just guessing.

    Did he not just sign like an 8 year contract extension until 2030?

    Yep. Don’t let that get in the way of the discussion though 😜

    We tried to get him and missed our chance. His contract is too big for us to take on now. We’ll need to look elsewhere or just continue to develop JVR and Jefferson.

    Chocco would fix him up in a heart beat.

    He would thrive at the Dees, they are a mess down there.

    Persoanlly think if we got him, with what Choco has done and a change in scenery he would be kicking bags but he is just too expensive and we would be put in a situation like the Pies. We would need Carton to pay more than they would be willing to,

    He’s next to useless, hearts the size of a dried pea.

    No thanks, Choco might fix the kicking but he's not a heart surgeon. Harry looks like he's playing to preserve himself.

    Incredible that he simply can't kick a drop punt for a goal.

    I think there’s only three forwards in the game that would be useful to us, Jeremy Cameron, Toby Greene and Rankine.

    Not sure anyone else has the tricks to work in our stifling setup.

    *on the assumption we still have Kozzie and Fritta

    Curnow.

    He's an absolute star forward who doesn't get enough credit especially as he is surrounded by poor individuals. 

    Would happily pay him a mil a year.

    Well down this year though. Bereft of confidence. His goal attempts last night were horrendous.

    But he kicked 58 in 21 and 45 last year. He's a very good player and would fill a gaping hole for us. And there aren;t many options out there. Chocco will set him right.

    Carlton need to shake-up their list and I reckon McKay could be sacrificed to bring in picks. He might just be gettable. 

    Curnow is obviously the better player but he is ungettable. The hoards would burn down Ikon Park if he was traded.

    True.

    He would suit us well getting up the ground

    1. Choco will fix him

    2. Our midfield will provide much better delivery to him

    3. Carlton will be desperate to get rid of him and will pay half his wage

    4. JVR and Jefferson will take a few years to hit top gear

    5. BBB and TMac clearly on the way out

    All adds up to a strong YES

    He is also dropping a lot of marks.

    It’s probably just a form slump, but it does highlight the dangers of long contracts at big money, if you get them wrong, it can stuff up your list.

    100%. He can be a stay at home gun, or a running Centre Half Forward. If he was in our forward line we’d win the flag for the next 5 years.

    Mckay. No no no

    I would be searching for a Mitch Lewis. Best young forward in the league right now (second only to Curnow imv) 

    Gotta find another like him 


    Lewis was drafted by Hawthorn with their second selection and seventy-sixth overall in the 2016 AFL draft.

    Not so sure about point 2.  
    Or the second part of 3.

    But yes, if the price is right and we get a sports psychologist to screen him first.  Not if he costs us players or too much cap space.

    We already took on one stupid long term contract.

    Stop searching for the magic bullet unrealistic marquee forward.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

    • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.
