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?

15th here we come!


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.

  • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

    Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

  • REPORT: Adelaide

    The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

  • CASEY: Coburg

    The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

  • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

    After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

  • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

    The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
