Another 29 year old? I'm sure the club will be right into him given their ongoing drive to make us the oldest list in the competition.

    I’d much rather see us make a play for Max King. Yes he’s contracted until the end of 2026, but that doesn’t mean he’s not gettable.

    No. We have the backline sorted with tall options. Lever. Turner. Hore also plays a similar style.  
     

    Need to find or spend money on skilled fast midfielders.

    Isn't Ryan Daniel the WA version of Sam McClure?

    He's a mate of mine and is nothing like Sam McClure.

    He is a genuienly good journo who always triple checks his info and doesn't make outlandish claims

    He would become a permanent emergency for the seniors. Think about it we could claim the most expensive emergency which will also go along with Grundy's title as the most expensive back up ruckman. Fullerton would be happy as he could concentrate on his VFL career. Little Brown needs not to worry about his senior career with the club as it is going to be non existent.

    Are you suggesting Barrass doesn’t fit into our side?

    Well there is hope for Journalism, thanks for that.

    Trade cost and salary cost far too high, and he is a player to solve a 'now' problem with key defenders, while we have a 'soonish' problem with key defenders which he won't help with much.

    This draft is loaded with key talls at both ends of the ground from about pick 15 to 35. It would be madness to essentially remove ourselves from that harvest for the sake of a 29yr old.

    Noah Balta is the one I'd be targeting to take over from May.

    Would absolutely love him, as he can play both ends, but couldn’t see it happening.

    Poor old Ooze too, but Richmond are in for some pain. They probably won't play finals again until he's closer to 30.

    Barass won't get a game with the Dees because he is not stupid enough to come here.

    • REPORT: 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.

    • PREGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons return to the MCG to take on the High Flying Hawks on Saturday Afternoon. Hawthorn will be aiming to consolidate a position in the Top 4 whilst the Dees will be looking to take a scalp and make it four wins in a row. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • 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.
