Wasn't it Chaplin initially hired as a forward coach? Edit "Recently retired Richmond defender Troy Chaplin has joined Melbourne's coaching panel as an offensive co-ordinator."

Wouldn't surprise me, these ex-lions players under Leigh Mathews seem to stick to their Pride. That's why I've never held much realistic hope in Leppitsch coming to Dees as an assistant. Head coach is another story of course.

I heard ABC's Corbin saying Gossage is very well connected, and his article on Hinkley is still in his mind in regards to all these coaches who don't even want to go thru the process. Eagles are waiting on Ports finish to the season. What exactly is a pass mark? Prelim? Could be a good chance he's at the Eagles if so.

What do DL folk think about trading a future 1st to get another first rounder this year? Some clubs might think it will be a top 5 pick, whereas internally they're thinking we'll be contending again. Ripe conditions to trade it. Which team could be willing to part with theirs? (If its not being used on Houston)

We need to Draftcruit Some oldies and some newies

Last chance saloon PF. Time to get out the PLAY MJ placard and hold it up all game

As a ruckman, Greg Stafford should easily be able to grab the forward role if its "up in the air"

Casey + Half of the TAC CUP after the media has finished rebuilding us

Herald Sun couldn't let Cal Twomey's Gettable website/podcast get all the traffic.

I know people hate fantasy points and all that, but he's also about 60% of his previous footy fantasy ratings, for the year. $570k when you'd expect him at his best to be $900-1100k. Massive drop off, for various reasons. When he's fit and firing again, we'll have another superstar that leads the comp in various stats- rebuilding shmebuilding Kane Cornes!

With Lukosius and Houston pinging it from outside 50, we won't need a forward line

Peter Walsh to Port? I must've missed that one. As a kid, he was there and then he was not haha. Though I do remember being disappointed that we only got pick 10(?) for Scott Thompson who looked like he would be our best player for a decade

Assess his options in Melbourne? So he's going to chat with each line coach and decide which position he wants to play?

Hire Plugger as goal kicking forward coach?

F off Fairfax - Another swipe at our club/players. You've become a celebrity gossip rag ever since Ch9 took over and dumbed you down.

He must've had something sticky on his hands

The has to be one of the best posts on demonland.

They'll probably extend Nicks out to 2028 too

Showdown and potential Dead rubber for Swans... Not out of the question

The analogy was made because you made the silly mistake of conflating one games performance with his overall value, by snarkily quoting past conversations, asking how he played. Also he played well, had some great laser passes and he'd be a great addition to our team at the right cost. The conversation should rightly shift to his value and how much we'd be prepared to give up, we're past the point of "not the kick we need in the team', because it's clear the club is head hunting him and does think he is.

It's snowing today, where are all those global warmers now?

What? I did not say "Lalor looks a talent - just 8 disposals though ? " I can only see that he's rubbing his tackle in that blokes noggin

The Saints play Geelong and Carlton after Richmond. That sucks

"Got thru the Oliver tackle" Yeah it was like being brushed with a piece of paper

Jesus Horn Francis is going to cook Oliver if he's playing at full forward
