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?

    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: Port Adelaide

      Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
