This is what we all want and are saying, but there are many different ways, of getting there. The break away speed players who can run, and nail targets on the run, are what we lack.

hah, I am glad to hear that ! I can understand carltoon and gaff. The game is about to reduce rotations,,, and space will open up, so gut-run, and 'speed',,, will both be in demand. We have some gut-run, but barely any speed. We need much more of it, in & around the middle, and half back. Dion Johnston is a keeper, at this time. IF he can learn to develop at the defensive end; he might have a future there, but also, if he can find his mojo down back; he may yet find he can play around the middle.?

This happens at Melbourne board level too often in our past. We had too many thinkers, that think they know how to,,, and jump on Board, only to leave us floundering in the mudheap, having gone no-where. This club needs people of real courage and vision; for our future... Not on-field, but our off-field future; to grow this clubs base.

Dormant is right, they are in boxes, swyl. The thing is the progeny are out there, but in other colours, these days. Or other sports. We have to start at ground Zero again, Open up the club for passing trade (Richmond Station), and remake our base.- Delisting, Trade and FA discussion 2018
Actually, I see your point dim... We trade Angus and Hogan to the Blues, for Furphy, and change. The change being, charlie and jacob... curnow, and weitering.- Delisting, Trade and FA discussion 2018

a question, IF,,, Dylan Shiel or Josh Kelly wanted out of GWS, to come back to Victoria.? What would you be prepared to trade, to get one of them to the Dees, for 2019 ?- New CEO - Gary Pert
I'm smelling an AFL push around these matters. Ans since PJ was saying he would stay on 12 months if necessary, to mentor the incumbent. Now it seems October is the deadline? Somewhow I don't feel like this, is all our boards walk?- New CEO - Gary Pert
its time we took a good one.- New CEO - Gary Pert
What do you mean, swyl? I am for Pert.- New CEO - Gary Pert
Most likely they did RM. ... but what IF the choice was down to a shortlist of say 3, and the board was divided on close choices. _ and then, what if the choice was leaked from head office, before the board had chosen ? What then ?- New CEO - Gary Pert
"cleanskin", not wearing any collingwood identifying paraphernalia. but rather showing Melbourne's identity.- Jordan De Goey
I don't know the difference in market values,,, only the clubs would. But I do know that a top 10 pick would go a long way towards that end, as trade in part for De Goey. Now I know we all like Gus, but unfortunately he is a long term risk. We are not the complete list, that people have been talking about in recent seasons. And I know one pacy player is not the answer, just as Diamond Jim was not the answer on his lonesome,,, back in the 60's. We need to include about 3 quickish players into our lineup, IMO. Stretch might be one? Hunt at present, isn't. DShiel would go some way to help. Degoey would be fantastic. Gaff wouldn't, IMO. Buying in, would mean, we have to make some tough (ruthless) decisions with our list. We have to enter trade;,,, and yes trade some favourite players.- Farewell Dean Kent
and hopefully get a little something back.- Jordan De Goey

Bloody curveballs hey, always had trouble withem. Perty, one of my favourite players, back in the day.- Jordan De Goey
I disagree on Garlett this year. Hasn't deserved it. You have to earn it,,, by doing the things 'the coaches' and 'the team' want/need. Not watt 'you', want to do only. Watt was quick as well, like a fox, unfortunately. But not so much a 'team' man. just one of the' buoys'. floated around waiting. 'watt of the wisp'. We want pace, with 'attitude',,, or 'brute', see Danger. 'will of the wisp', not so much. I guess that's why we got Spargo, and Baker, both have 'tude'. But both not what i'm talking about. 'De Goey will be hotter property, and I am thinking he's skills are a better investment, than Gaff's gut run. .- Farewell Dean Kent
And all of them were here at a time, 'when',,, and now we need those memories, out of the building. Jones aside, as he is not one to be lead astray; but is a leader. rarity.- Farewell Dean Kent
time: churn the list.- Jordan De Goey
Why do you say, 'instead of teaching him'? Don't you reckon we've been trying to get him to use the ball better since last season ? The coaches of course, would have been working on that with him. And so we have worked hard on getting ur half back sorted so we use the ball better coming out of defence. We have been much better at this, in 2018. But sadly Hunt has not been able to capture his best form, from the wing. Our depth has miraculously improved from defence, since we recruited Lever, and others last year.- Jordan De Goey
We can do it, IF we want to. Mind you it doesn't have to be DeGoey, but he has that x factor. Whitfield, Kelly, and no doubt others can do it. But do they carry X factor. - New CEO - Gary Pert
