    Get him in for the clarry pick we get from gws. Good character and decent player for the next two years while our youngsters come on

    I'd take Steele as a plan C where we very likely end up with neither of Flanders or Humphrey's and end up just drafting the best kids we can get.

    Plan C activated

    No.

    This actually makes me angry at the thought.

    We are better off backing our current players. Rivers, Windsor, Langford, Sparrow, Lindsay etc.

    Another Jack Billings type trade. Bugger off Lamb.

    Looking forward to seeing our media "draft mark" after this circus - struggling to see it being A+

    Oh FFS

    Jack Steele? Did Viney just do a knee that I dont know about?

    Only makes sense if saints paying a chunk like we are with Oliver, in a way it would off set that to a degree

    Not sure we need him, might end up at Casey a fair bit

    We were right, I followed your lead.

    Steele is still a good player but we don't seem to have a coherent strategy around our list build at the moment. Not sure 30 and 32 year olds on good money are what we should be chasing.

    Can you explain how they’ll link it?

    I’m struggling to follow that train of thought.

    The fact that he has to weigh up to leave the Saints just shows how far the mighty have fallen.

    We have list spots to fill and need folk of good character to help rebuild. He doesnt have to be playing footy to have an impact on the playing group.

    What people miss in this stuff is the power of having great people and leaders at the club. Something we have lacked in. It's not just match day that counts, it's the leadership and development of the younger guys, training standards throughout the week, team meetings etc. Plus if its for nothing in exchange, he's great insurance for onfield.

    If it ends up being the pick from the Oliver trade then I like that deal. A good leader, experienced and a good person, who still has some decent footy left in him.

    Just goes to show that the Oliver trade is entirely linked to off field stuff.

    Because on-field, he's a much, much, much better option than Jack Steele.

    He is the sort of player who makes the young kids walk taller. Tough bugger. Protects his players.

      The Demons put four quarters of hard contested, fast running and high pressure football to knock off the ladder leaders and early premiership contenders the Gold Suns by 20 points at the MCG on Easter Sunday.

    • PODCAST: Gold Coast

      I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.

      It's Game Day and the Demons are back at the MCG and have a massive challenge ahead of them as they take on Premiership contender the Gold Coast Suns. What do you want to see from the Dees today?

    • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      Melbourne’s slow starts have been a troubling theme for a while. Against the Suns, they started slowly in both of their games, they trailed by 5.7.37 to 0.1.1 at quarter time at Peoples First Stadium in Round 16. This season, the story has remained the same and if the Demons fail to shake off this issue against the unbeaten Gold Coast Suns, they will be in serious danger of capitulating once again in their Easter Sunday showdown.
