Season 2 Agree GIF by Paramount+

I’m a YES if he’s truly available

Let’s get it done.

Windhager would be a massive addition to our midfield. Probably trade out Sparrow if he’s added.

I have a gut feeling that Sparrow is going to be traded. As he is from SA I would keep an eye on Port

    Can’t believe I am reading that now, as I saw Finey yesterday and would have asked him. Have known him for years. Will try and see him today or monday and find out what he knows.

    Hope he is correct though.

    Wonder what we could trade for him and steak knives Heath.

    Is this the massive salary cap spend coming home to roost?

    Trac might be involved in a multi club trade to get this done.

    Or maybe our future first rounder for Windhager and Heath?

    I wouldn’t be sad, he has been really poor for a couple years now with no influence in most games.

    That is true

    Dees offer is 5 year contract and X $$$s

    Saints had 3 year deal, then upped to 4 years but kept $$$ the same.

    I think Dees offer is also more $$$s.

    Saints need to rethink their offer. But they are big on spend for TDK, SILVAGNI, Ryan and ALEER plus $$$ for NWM.

    Reads a bit that way .... but is it as much saying they might not have the ability ?

    Does sound like a managers last ditch attempt to get the Saints to the table

    With that being said, at least we're the club linked I guess!

    End of the day. We have to. If we are serious about trying for finals and a flag (which I am not sure we are there yet), we need to go for these picks and more.

    It’s either that or we hold onto salary, and use our future picks, which takes a lot longer.

    Fingers crossed on this!

    Right out of left field this one and a super get.

    Do people realise now football departments can make decisions on their own before a coach like wanting May gone?

    Anyone know about the intel about the trade?

    I couldn’t find anything online when I typed in Windhager.

    This is coming only from Finey (a saints man) so no official trade request appears to have been made

    interesting option to add in to our midfield

    defensively-minded and strong over the ball yet not a clearance midfielder but not overly quick nor better than average by foot, i wouldn't have thought?

    Does seem a rather odd announcement. In so much as Finey leaves himself wide open if this has no legs.

    Am curious to as if nothing else.... the motive.

    Is it to nudge Saints to ante up 🤔🤔🤷‍♂️

    In true Tim Lamb fashion I reckon he's offered Windhager 6 years to blow the Saints out of the water!

    A good player that’s getting better by the game.

    Comprehensively beat Kozze in the Alice game that sunk our season. We need a player to quell the opposition’s midfield star such as Ed Richards who willed the Dogs over the line against us.

    Viney can do that..oh wait a minute🤔

    It'll be Adelaide more then Port.

    There midfield and lack of depth got badly exposed on Thursday night once Dawson was clamped down.

    Would not be surprised if Adelaide even reach out in regards to Oliver.

    They were killed in the midfield, with Dawson not great and basically no one else doing anything.

    They will be desperate to boost their midfield.

      The Demon stalwart surpassed the number of his father's appearances for the club towards the end of the season. As he approaches his thirties, his pace is inevitably slowing, and he is likely to explore alternative opportunities beyond the team's midfield.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #8 Jake Lever

      The Demon premiership defender who has the reputation the master of intercept possessions as well as great leadership qualities managed only eight senior games this season as he battled injury and form, prompting speculation that he might be enticed to look elsewhere.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #10 Daniel Turner

      “Disco” took his time (four seasons) but the mid-season draftee has been a shining light of Melbourne's campaign, improving to become a versatile option at either end of the ground. He has great marking skills which allows him to play as a marking target up forward or an intercepting defender down back.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #11 Max Gawn

      The skipper delivered another outstanding season, leading the team from the front, participating in every game, and earning club champion honours, while also securing an equal record eighth All-Australian blazer as a ruckman.  Max Gawn is arguably the greatest exponent of ruck skills in the history of the game; an exceptional leader who has guided the club to a premiership, through the challenging times that followed, and now into the next phase of its storied history.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #12 Koltyn Tholstrup 

      It was a frustrating season for the former number 13 draft selection, who failed to build momentum in his second campaign; Tholstrup played only nine games, having been omitted twice and substituted out three times. However, he demonstrated promising signs in the midfield at Casey towards the end of the season, and big things are anticipated from him in the coming years.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #13 Clayton Oliver

      Clayton Oliver, a four-time best and fairest winner at the club, has navigated a challenging period over the past two years, marked by injuries and personal issues, but has demonstrated promising signs suggesting a return to his optimal form in 2025. He is presently contracted to the club for an additional five years, with a substantial annual salary of approximately $1.7 million in the final seasons of his agreement. All at Melbourne are eagerly anticipating his resurgence to his previous peak performance levels.
