The rumour here is that (as with Ben Hudson) a Victorian based club is prepared to offer him the two year deal he is looking for....

Just thought it was worth a Yes or No from the Demonland folk.....

I am pretty much in the No category due to the fact that he is injury prone.....

The question is....

Are we the one's who have offered him this two year deal?!?!?!?!?!

no way! bails wants young players not old washed up ones

OK....

It is seriously heating up now!!

Channel 9 news in Adelaide just reported that it is apparently MELBOURNE who have offered him a two year deal....

Thoughts?????

why the hell would we want him? we would be just contridicting ourselves with the whole <24 thing we have going on....he is not that great..belly showed that he is beatable...he will just make the development of a younger player harder by taking their spot...he is the same age as Robbo so if he came to the club, Neitz robbo and welsh would all retire at roughly the same time, leaving three vacancies and not enough practise in those positions....

lets just hope this rumour is as true as the J$U$D$D$$$$$ rumous


Oh noooooooo... Not Welsh...

Is it politcally correct to say we should Welsh on the deal?

I am a bit bemused.

I thought he was a pretty good player....

I wonder how much he wants?

One would think DB might have a pretty good idea what he is like.

ย 

Personally I'd prefer to take a punt on Pfeiffer or Sampi. Both under 24 and have just as much talent as Welsh. DB would be foolish to take a 28 year old medium forward approaching the twilight of his career.

i would have taken welsh if we could have gotten a first rounder out of robbo...

but otherwise id rather the spot on the list goes to a younger player...


As long as we use 4 - 14- 21 on best availiable kids in draft & get Sampi also, I say lets get him

if he's going cheap. DB would clearly know a fair bit about his worth from his time in Adelaide.

Sampi is fat as. Welsh is an ok player in bursts but not what were looking for. No deal. And while im on Sampi mfc better not pick him up as he will never get to be the right size...that is unless everyone is hungry haha

I concur. Welsh more often than not has wiped the floor with us. I say we should use our three first picks on kids, our fourth pick on Sampi and our PSD pick on Welsh.

HF: Davey Newton Robinson

FF: Sampi Neitz Welsh

Has my approval.

Last I heard, Channel 9 had confirmed Judd was signed sealed and deliviered to Melbourne, too.

I think Welsh is an ok player whose had some bad luck.

On the one hand I think the Crows are being a bit pissy not offering him two years, on the other hand I don't think it would be much of an addition to our list, for immediate need or long term, if we grabbed him.

So it's a no from me on Welsh, particularly if he's asking for a full senior player's wage. If it's an old Welsh for $200,000 vs young Sampi for $60,000 then it's a no-brainer out of the two, whatever doubts we might have on Sampi.

What are you suggesting? That Melbourne's forward line is about to become a refuge for the inmates of a nursing home?

We already have Neitz, Robbo and Yze and we need another near 30 yo?

Go figure?


Why would we want him? He's like a slightly lesser version of Robbo.

Seriously I would be very [censored] off if we got him, I don't see the point when we could pick up a kid who will still be around when we're challenging for the flag.

The Sampi move I like because he's only 23/24, but Welsh? No, we don't need him.

He is slow and inconsistent as well and has had his fair share of injuries.

This is just Kent Kingsley mark 2....

Next.

whos robinson? where did we get him from?


Above all else...

TOO OLD.

whos robinson? where did we get him from?

Is that the most annoying thing in the world or what?

No offence to the people who make that mistake, I can understand it... but with the so-called footy experts, and especially the commentators they really should know better...

Some of the worst offenders, S.O.S., Daicos and I think Healy has been guilty a few times...

Almost makes you yearn for the days of McGuire... "Rrrrrrrrrrrrrrobertsooooooooooooon!!!!!!"

... Almost...

If we get Welsh cheaply, i have no problem with it.

He has towelled us up a few times, is a straight kick and applies great foward pressure with his strong tackling. Something we lack.

He is a little injury prone, but so are our other fowards. It would be good to have a bit of depth, so we have someone else to kick to if Neitz and Robbo go down again.

? Vardy MK 2?

Vardy was a gun who played at least a couple of sensational season with us. Also, was he 28 when we got him?

  • REPORT: Hawthorn

    The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

  • CASEY: Box Hill

    The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

    The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?
