Yes I did- one is a ruckman at 24 years of age- another a forward at 30 .I think we need a ruckman ,more than a full forward type. This is my opinion - however you are also allowed yours.Furthermore, I think their is quite alot of upside with Laycock. Bradshaw is in his twilight.

This is a stupiid suggestion.Why would we do this when we could have got Fevola, We have delisted Robertson, Wheatley & Whelan due to our youth policy and recruiting Bradshaw would be a slap in the face to us all.

A strong rumour is that Essendon would like to unload Laycock. I think he would suit our short & long term requirements, Your thoughts?

AGREE with all the analysis , already stated- a MAKE or BREAK year. Huge pre season is required to make sure body holds up then with confidence- PRODUCE.

My apologies for doubting you- http://www.melbournefc.com.au/news/newsart...62/default.aspx confirms it. Actually you should be thanked for letting us all know when you did- THANK YOU

Thanks for pointing this out,[deleted] and I UNDERSTAND & AGREE- however there are always rumours that do not come off- they were saying Jamar was definately going to Port but that did not come off- howeverI accept Mumford will go to Sydney but I would love for the Dees to offer him a contract to stay.As they say its not over till the fat lady sings. I haven't heard her yet

I believe you are a volunteer - HOWEVER no need to concern yourself with Casey Job- Gotch is confirmed

Thanks for your advise- however are you aware that the clubs have been contacting each other at the clubs itself,due to from Tuesday to Friday morning they have not been to Docklands. Trading at Docklands is only Monday & Friday.

Don't worry-the way we are going ,you may end up coaching the MFC next year

I do not think it is any of your business, if one rings a club to get verificvation of a trade. Better to get it from the horses mouth rather than the gossip chambers.Lastly, if I want to take the liberty to contact a club.I do not think it is any of your business

I did not think it was definate he has gone to Sydney, whilst I understand, highly likely,I wish people would not make statements until they are verified. Show me where Shane Mumford has been traded till Sydney. I rang Geelong this morning and they stated that no trade has happened as yet.

What do you think about Mumford from Geelong?

The papers are saying MFC are interestd in Ball- Do we think he would be a decent pick up? Or have we got enough mids.?

Great point but it gives us a chance to see if they are worth keeping any more than next year.

PLEASE CONFIRM THIS INFORMATION AND QUALIFY IT- AS I UNDERSTAND THIS SITE EXPECTS STATEMENTS LIKE THIS VERIFIED. However, it does make sense - but I thought we could have done better

For the ones that play full forward -I would say none are all that slow. I don't get your point-if you think Serhat is slow- get real Name another player at this level whom has kicked 22 or over during a final series.Voss kicked 14 one final .Goodes kicked 5 in a grand final you name some others please.

Agree- we need to get tough- stuff them- we got rid of Jolly instead of Jamar for a rd 14 pick, it was only this season that Jamar has should he was worth us keeping him- now we should absolutely reject pick 9 only- he is woth more than what McLean ws gained for. Get seroius guys We will have no ruck strength at all-

Dappa- I always respect your opinion- I believe you respect mine.He is currently 195/6 cms tall- still growing and about 96 kls. Got a build that could turn out to be Lockett like if developed that way.Glass is 182cms ,93 kls whilst Lake is 195,104kls.No doubt he could build this up with a very good pre season to high 90's or low 100's in 1st yesr(pre season) Their are about 6 talls that will go under 40.- maybe 3 other fowards that he should be compared with-- Panos- Black & Houghton. In discussing Temel, with Calder Cannons- he played 9 games at CHB-3 @CHF @ 7 FULL FORWARD during the season, played between FF @CHF during finals kicking 53 goals for the year.If that is not a sound basis for an early pick- I have not watched under age football for 40 years. He is one of the best young forwards going around and if anyone disputes me contact Andrew Johnston AFL Victoria Development Manager Calder Cannons 0438 527 742 caldercannons.aflvic.com.au for verification. Any way we will know in just over 7 weeks time

you are away with the birds- if you do not think this bloke can play 22 goals in 5 finals. Any wager he does not go under 30. You are joking mate.

Around 70 klms in a very Built up area and where freeway has works being done constantly where maximum speed generally is 80 klms max. However, this is not my beef- it is that the club should take this into consideration when they are recruiting. It is like 2 hour hell sometimes.Especially when McLean had a bad ankle for 2 years and as he rightfully stated he could have done at least an hour an half recovery or training instead of the frustrating drive- I rest my case not for Mclean but for the club to consider this dilemna.They own a mini bus- maybe they should use it

Why couldn't he play on a half forward flank roving around the area of centre to forward pocket? To me this is the place we can maximise his abilities. I believe Wona and Jurrash will float around the pockets with TEMEL in the square

HOW WOULD YOU FEEL IF GAI WATERHOUSE SAID SHE WAS SHIFTING AND WAS GOING TO TRAVEL 2/3 HOURS TO TO TAKE YOUR HORSES THERE. MAYBE PUT YOUR WINNINGS INTO AN INVESTMENT- BUILD THE DEMONLAND VILLAS CLOSE TO CASEY & RENT THEM OUT.

I beg to differ-also he will not have to go anywhere need Royal Parade. However that was not the debate or my point. I was saying and reiterate that travelling (driving)in a car for say 3 hours a day with a bung ankle is something the club should have concerned itself about.Also hiring German who lives close to me north of the city was a major issue to him after taking thejob. All I am saying is listen to the beat of the drom MFC take note - there may be some merit to it. And maybe some CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM MAY TURN POSITIVE.

my point totally- and hopefully you are not recovering from a bung ankle. I do not think loosing McLean is a major problem but I think the club needs to take i hand the travelling and its or could be effect

Maybe we should have got him to run there. Crawford used to run from St Kilda to Waverley
