Hunter was a smart pickup - allowed us to move Brayshaw on-ball and he was more than handy in his first season. Combination of the arrival of Windsor, injury and age haven't helped him this year, but it wasn't the worst trade by a long shot.

My issue with Hunter is that heโ€™s contributed nothing positive to our culture. In fact, quite the opposite. Was not worth it IMHO.

    thank you. That was my point too!

    Jay Clark on triple M yesterday stated that Caleb Daniel is a "massive chance" to be at the Dees next year.

    Rarely advances the ball. Predominantly kicks sideways or backwards. Noย 

    Hey, sorry we didn't catch up at Port game I couldn't go. I'm o/s really enjoying pizzas in Naples.

    At the same time, it pushed Jordon out of the wing spot, which probably contributed to him leaving. Hunter also has had issues with professionalism, and i don't think it has helped his injury profile this year. Seemed pretty checked out this year.ย

    Hunter was a terrible short-sighted pick-up, as Caleb Daniel would be.

    He was. Unless he's really fallen off a cliff, Daniel is a far better footballer, but I'm not sure about his age.ย 

    Is the idea that as long as we have Oliver, Viney, Petracca, May and Gawn, we're in the flag window and so somehow duty bound to top up with 28 year olds?ย

    Rightly or wrongly, yes, that's exactly what they'll be doing

    On the plus side, we took two first rounders to the draft last year, and will take pick 5 this year, feels like we'll have a solid group of youngsters bubbling away. I'd rather take a punt on cheaper options like Daniel, rather than spend first round pick(s) on Houston that's for sure.

    Hunter effectively pushed Jordon out of the side.......That's aged well :(

    Daniel is so done.....please no

    Why waste a pick on Daniel?

    Lamb and Richardson need to go, pronto

    Good player who has been bevo'd. If we brought in no established players people would whinge too. At least he'll be cheapish.

    Surely we wonโ€™t waste the mid 20โ€™s ANB compensation pick on him? Youโ€™ll get a seriously good player with pick 25 in this years draftย

    The same Dogs list management team brought in Oskar Baker and James Harmes, I don't think they have all the answers personally.

    caleb daniel is reportedly on a heavily back-ended deal, $700-750k a year for the next two seasons

    his best position is as a running small defender who, well, doesn't defend that well cos he's so small

    i struggle to see how we can play bowey and daniel in the same side unless one of them changes roles

    Just play the one of the two that actually finds the ball

    Me too. Houston seemed like a really bad idea to me.ย Especially in this draft brimming with out-and-out onballers.

    I'm not sure how solid our under 22s are, though. Windsor looks excellent. McVee is really good. I think everyone is hopeful rather than certain about Jefferson. I'd rather bolster this area of the list than get another 28 year old "maybe" player.ย

    Agree, Daniel is a good player but he's not quick. Daniel and Bowey in the same zone defence would be vulnerable.ย 

    I did like it when he was on the Wizard briefly on Friday night - as someone said - both hoping for a contested marking opportunity.

    You're taking the [censored] if you're including Daniel's sub effected 2024 stats

    as opposed to those that bowey was subbed out of?

    my point stands - to my eye they play similar roles and having similar statistical outputs

    we don't need two of them, and certainly not a significant wage as a 29 and 30 year old

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.ย

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
