Dropped this week after starting sub and being subbed.

He is a very good footballer and silky skills, Goody spoke about how in 2021 he killed us in every game we played them.

Would be a very good player to get.

If he requests a trade then the Dogs have 0 bargaining power, and they haven't been playing him so they can say he is a gun.

Thoughts?

 

Don't think you can play him and Bowey in the same side 

Get the Jack Macrae thread going 

 

Stunned that he can't get a game with the Doggies. Very smart player. Great reader of the play.


No, too small we already have too many small players who are as good if not better with the football.

 

I'd much prefer getting more games into Bowey.

I honestly think Daniel needs to be tried as a forward. Got the weighted kick to be like a Grian Myers.

He's lost in the back half now.

Jake Bowey is already a better version of exactly the same player.

Jay Clark just said that he thinks we will go after Caleb Daniel after missing out on Houston for ball use off half back.

Thoughts?

Don't mind it to be honest. Been bevo'd, still has a bit to offer.

We’re starting to get desperate if that’s the case.

Hard to be excited by much at the moment. He could be ok but probably won’t help enough. 


We should be going for cheap options like Daniel who can fill a role rather than expensive options like Houston anyway...especially given the current situation of potentially struggling to field a Melbourne Demons 5 a-side basketball team in 2025

An important part of our Premiership story.

We're going to retire half their team via two year contracts by the time we're through.

Caleb Daniel good game is 300 metres gained. Houston averages 450-480m. We have enough smallish players with dinky kicks. 

 

I quite liked Daniel as a player, however it’s a mighty fall from grace if we’ve gone from a two time AA (probably) to Caleb Daniel as our new HBF recruit.

Reminds me of the Billings and Hunter trades, washed up and past their best. Can’t say I’m excited about this or the current direction of the club and overall recruitment strategy at the moment. Bring on the external review, accountability and transparency at all levels of the club.

  • 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.

  • GAMEDAY: West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?

  • FEATURE: 1925

    A hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.
