I was happy to accommodate Smith non the less, but i have to say a 25 y.o wingman is better than a 32 y.o wingman. Divert all attention to Phillips Dees. Forget Smith now he's obviously having second thoughts, hearts not in it get the player who is hungry for a premiership(s).

Crucial cog going forward from next year onwards. Any update on his injury progression?

Respect is what builds clubs. I only see good things with this announcement.

Surely the club knows our Forward line dynamic is not working whatsoever players like Higgins can't be ignored. Our Forward line is the worst function part of our game and shows no sign of improving with the same cattle. Time to put some fingers in some pies Dees.

How can St.Kilda be in for him? Brad Crouch etc... they've loaded up on every Tom, [censored] and Harry and still have cash to burn. Smells of the Carlton's down their at RSEA park.

We need 2 small fowards this trade period to compliment Brown. Aarts and Higgo would be a delicious combo and would not cost the earth.

This is exactly what we should be doing, still early to mid 20's who can apply pressure, tackle and kick goals.

Add another 8-16 minutes back onto the game clock and they are know where near a premiership after tonight.

It was 3 wanted a 4th year.

Also pay Mihochek aswell and they are miles apart from a deal

Won a flag with Woodville West Torrens in SANFL on Sunday.

Barry you've had more than one barry in your time with the club, i suggest you go away and never speak another word about your shambolic draft dealings at our club. You have caused enough damage. Thanks sincerely, Demonland Posters/Supporters.

Everyone's had enough of it, Geelong, Collingwood and Hawthorn were the biggest advocates of this because they knew it would benefit them and keep them from bottoming out.

Naysmith couldn't clean Thiago and Van Dijks boots.

Pickford and Richarlson are dirty [censored].

I'll walk away if that happens, how many promised properties will they have after footys over, surely can't be under the cap.

How is this allowed to happen? Thats why free agency was bought it to keep the likes of Geelong, Hawthorn, Collingwood from bottoming out. can't stand the Kents

No wonder he had a ripping year.

Spot on congrats?

Woewodin still Woewodin ooooohhh.

To Langers credit he did clean up his disposal after the 1st game against West Coke.

This is the year to top up with what we need. 3-4 players of genuine quality can catapult us to a strong position next year. Is there anyone from GWS we can possibly entice back the Vic with the Pruess trade?

I wouldn't say no to Smith, but if i had to choose its Phillips by the length of the Flemington Straight everyday of the week. Can't compaire really, one could give us 8 years of service compaired to 2 years.

Why should we roll over on Pruess? He is a desired ruckman with 2 years to go on his deal, why would we settle for F all?

He has to be the future BBP, he's 20 years old and positions like the wing role should be selected in national drafts and developed this is what i see in Bakes case and point. I can acknowledge this was not by design though like most things Melbourne. Before last year we had no designated wingers so we went out and recruited two on a long term deals, one has becoming an important midfield cog the other a suprise defensive inclusion at CHB alongside May and Lever. We need to recruit to strengthen our biggest weaknesses which are in our forward line. eg Power Forward and another quick pressure forward like Kosi.
