Unless we lose one of JVR or Petty, I can't see us going big on any opposition KPF.

Well, I dont rate either of JVR or Petty that highly, so I would make JUH a massive offer he could not refuse

Doggies need picks to rejuvenate their list. They need defenders and Naughton ain’t going. Darcy will play Forward and they’ll sign English. 

Dogs definitely need to improve their defence. In a perfect world JUH traded for Petty and something would be good for both clubs.

Shame it won't happen

 

I would love any of Smith, Jamara, Weightman, or Richard's. Either way I'd love to pick the eyes out of this falling team.

With the form Naughton is in, there is no way JUH leaves. 

 

More chance of Naughton being traded to WC for cap space then JUH walking to us on a decent deal. 


Media reports about possible smoke around the Bont. 

As captain was part of their review - obviously thing's not working.... might be able to pry out if things don't improve.

Go and get the Bont!

It is a good idea, D_J; suits the Dogs defensively, heals the MFC forward line (and most probably encourages the kickless to be far more mobile with an attacking forward like JUH onboard). If only it could happen!

They will sack Bevo before they let the Bont walk out. Take that to the bank.

If I was at any club I’d be making public offers just to watch the dogs house burn

Why? They are an easy kill.

Mostly because I am sadistic and enjoy watching other clubs implode

But secondly - if it frees up a bont, a marra, a Riley sanders.... and we can get our hands on one happy days

I’m with you to an extent. Makes for a great thread on a ladder of which team you hate most ordered from 1 (most hated) to 17 (least). Doggies are not in my top 8 at all.

Yeah, I like MFC.

That's it.

Surely they’d sack everyone from the president to the boot-studder before losing Bont..?

Might be time for a Bont thread!!!

The Bont is a shining example of a footballer and how the game should be played.

Hard to envisage a trade scenario that would be worth their while.

Bont's book has a boy with Demon colours. Omen? A certainty to be at the Dees 🤪

Stranger things have happened. After all, Ryan Griffen left as Dogs captain to join GWS.

I always think that no individual is bigger than the club; but the Bont is definitely an exception to that rule.

Him leaving the Dogs would be the equivalent of Max leaving the Dees.

 

Off topic question. What's Max King's contract situation? The Saints look like a perennial middle of the road team, perhaps we can persuade him to come here?

  • POSTGAME: Essendon

    Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

  • GAMEDAY: Essendon

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
