We were going to draft him.

Geelong traded up by a spot.

Restricted out of contract.

Don't know our cap sito, but if we have space, throw the cheque book at him.

    IF WE HAVE SPACE!

    We could sign LeBron James to a super max extension this off season I reckon.

    Apparently Holmes cracked it being left out of their grand final side a couple years ago

    Do clubs really trade fair value

    We got nowhere approaching LJ's worth and if Petty goes we might get a high second round.

    Don't know much about Holmes... what is he worth (both pick and salary)

    The answer would be a resounding no based on the recent Grundy trade.

    We received a couple of mediocre picks in exchange for making a top 8 rival considerably stronger.

    Its a part of doing business. When you lose one you get unders, when one chooses to come your way you do better. If you work free agency to your advantage (in and out) you'll end up in front.

    “Nowhere approaching LJ’s worth”?

    You don’t think two first round picks was ”approaching” it?

    No

    when given the picks were both expected to be around 14. Luck made the second year pick higher

    He was a pick 3 21 year old with proven high level skills. His $1M salary put him in the top 20-40 salary wise in the league

    Not saying we could have done better but we got nowhere near his future worth

    Jefferson in 2022 for example shows that pick 14/15 doesn't equal Jackson

    Been thinking this a long time after it was highly public Geelong usurped us.. pace is big plus and would suit our mids given he’s more outside overall but can win it inside as well..

    This.

    We paid nowhere near Grundy's market value to get him to us. The fact we completely @#$%^& it up is a different issue. We also picked up BBB for a song and got Langers for a set of steak knives.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    • AFLW REPORT: St. Kilda

      The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
