Goodwin’s speech about culture at the B+F would look absolutely stupid if we got in to the Ginnivan business 

 

Not for us thanks, but Bombers or even Hawks would make a lot of sense.

They can both get involved and hold up yet another trade ...

Was down to the wire on whether I used the laughing emoji or the applause.

Would be interesting to see what Collingwood think he is worth.

Yes he comes across as an A grade DH but has talent can find the goals and was quite good up the field towards the end of this year. Him and kozzie in the fwd 50 or rotating with stints in the midfield would be exciting and equally as frustrating , he is young I'm not against it.

... and yet we bought Hunter into the club given his issues were known whilst at the dogs.
If the club thought that they can bring someone in and they would buy into our culture I don't see a problem.

Edited by Ouch!

 

not sure he has the speed and pressure we need

skiils are good though

Ginnivan was one of the (media) sensations of the AFL last year.

Why the dramatic fall . 

He still has some talent but he had one move when getting the ball in traffic and it was throwing himself to ground and exploiting the umps. The moment they started actually enforcing the rules as written he lost a lot of his value.

Wonder if we can upgrade one of our picks to help them get the trade done. Ie. From 6 to pick 4.

Yes we have enough of those types at the club in Kossie and Spargo.

It impacted Spargo all year and has lowered his value. Took Kossie some time to grow out of it too.

Are you trying to kill me?!

 

Can't wait for him to get to hawks, then when he plays Pies he ducks, gets a high freekick and the pies fans lose their minds.

Will be so enjoyable

Because McRae is cleaning up house. 
Will only keep DHs if they’re good enough players. Ginnivin is not.

  • REPORT: Sydney

    A few weeks ago, I visited a fellow Melbourne Football Club supporter in hospital, and our conversation inevitably shifted from his health diagnosis to the well-being of our football team. Like him, Melbourne had faced challenges in recent months, but an intervention - in his case, surgery, and in the team's case, a change in game style - had brought about much improvement.  The team's professionals had altered its game style from a pedestrian and slow-moving approach, which yielded an average of merely 60 points for five winless games, to a faster and more direct style. This shift led to three consecutive wins and a strong competitive effort in the fourth game, albeit with a tired finish against Hawthorn, a strong premiership contender.  As we discussed our team's recent health improvement, I shared my observations on the changes within the team, including the refreshed style, the introduction of new young talent, such as rising stars Caleb Windsor, Harvey Langford, and Xavier Lindsay, and the rebranding of Kozzy Pickett from a small forward to a midfield machine who can still get among the goals. I also highlighted the dominance of captain Max Gawn in the ruck and the resurgence in form in a big way of midfield superstars Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver.

  • POSTGAME: Sydney

    The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.

  • CASEY: Northern Bullants

    The Casey Demons travelled to a windy Cramer Street, Preston yesterday and blew the Northern Bullants off the ground for three quarters before shutting up shop in the final term, coasting to a much-needed 71-point victory after leading by almost 15 goals at one stage. It was a pleasing performance that revived the Demons’ prospects for the 2025 season but, at the same time, very little can be taken from the game because of the weak opposition. These days, the Bullants are little more than road kill. The once proud club, situated behind the Preston Market in a now culturally diverse area, is currently facing significant financial and on-field challenges, having failed to secure a win to date in 2025.

  • GAMEDAY: Sydney

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons have a golden opportunity to build on last week’s stirring win by toppling Sydney at the MCG. A victory today would keep them firmly in the hunt for a finals spot and help them stay in touch with the pack chasing a place in the Top 8. Can the Dees make it two in a row and bring down the Swans?
