Marked well. Kicking off. He’s a very good no 2. Don’t think he has the height for a kpf1 role

He is 197cm and a super athlete. Doggies just don’t know how to play him to use his strength.

    They seemed to be playing to his strengths today. He saw plenty of it. Would have had a bag if he kicked straight.

    The comparisons to Buddy is bordering insane. 

    Well his contested marking is better than Franklins but his set shots let him down. Regardless of what anyone thinks if he leaves the kennel he’s poised to sign the biggest contract in the history of the game.

    Sure he would have had a bag if he kicks straight… but how often does he? 
    I mean I would have had a bag too if I was 25 years younger, A foot taller and any good at kicking goals.

    He kicked a bag against us, was it last year or '22, including the sealer

    He'd be a good addition to our list if we could land him.

    JVR and JUH together... mmmmm...

    Watched him carefully today.  He's a bloody beauty.

    Anytime a KF can win a fair amount of 1 v 1s when he is seemingly out of the contest or not in the favoured position (and occasional 1 v 2s) you know you have yourself a very very good player and a potential match winner.

    We would not be doing our job well enough if we aren't deep in the mix for JUH as we speak!

    I’m wondering how high and long Landers’ would be prepared to go?

    5 years, $1.25 million a year?

    10 years, $1 million+ a year?

     

    What figures would be the top end you’d be happy to go?

    Most landers wouldn’t know what the salary cap is without googling so we can just ignore that.

     

    Aside from me of course…

    The club needs to come out and clearly state it's intentions to the media on JUH before it's too late and we miss our chance to be in a news article. 

    Great to have you back Skuit

    My guess is JUH will command 6 years at roughly $1.2M

    Could even be offered 10 years but without kickers I doubt he would take it.

    The incoming Tasmanian team will completely skew the market in so many ways

    It will be okay for the Dogs. Like when Hogan left us they'll get two first rounders and with luck they'll pick up a key back which they desperately need

    Look with your eyes.

    Think with your brain.

    Do the results match the hype?

    If Bevo is there, don't sign, mate. Just don't sign...

    I would think a 2 year deal would be the smart move .

    He will then have just as many options after 2 years and can force his way out after 1 if things go even further south at the dogs

    • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

      Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front. They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
