We need outside run and pace. Has to be our priority at the end of year trade period. Gaff is the obvious candidate.

So, of the mature inside Mids in free agency, would you have Murphy first, or Sloane ?

I dont think of Murphy as a pure inside mid. I think he is quite rounded. 

I dont think we hunt him, but if we miss out on gaff and he was quite cheap I wouldn't say no.

I'm sorry but Gaff is not quick. if you ask any WCE supporters they wanted him dropped last season. He was pathetic. It's often the case that the club he is playing at know him the best. Having a stellar season but I saw too much of him last season to change my mind.

I"ve been watching Gaff, doing a bit more inside work out of necessity, but whole team is playing well

Went missing last couple of years when it was tough going, he is a downhill skier

Normal wettin of pants on here when a player gets a bit of media attention 

The only thing more certain than death and taxes is that you will wet your pants at preseason training should Gaff come to MFC

I say no to Carlton hacks no matter what price but yes please to Gaff he is a gun.

Hell no. Slow, injury prone and not what we need. Can’t believe it’s even being considered.

Couple of selfies, soccer questions, ass pics from training and maybe even a video tribute when he plays a milestone game.

Nothing more certain.

We have two small mids who are guns (Viney and Jones).  We cant fit Murphy in too.

Spargo will develop into a fine mid to take the Jones role.

Bolding that part for future reference if he comes to the MFC.

Will be interesting to see if you accost him at training and tell him hes a downhill skiier - I am guessing you won't.

Murphy has had a good career. However, a 31 year old who can’t get on the park is of no use to us. 

Next.

Careful dazzle, ass talk like that will get @Bitter but optimistic sniffing around

We have Spargo, the new and improved Murphy 2.0, with 10+ years as a Dee ahead of him. Why bother with 30 year old 1.0 version?

I'd prefer R.P.MacMurphy.

I have an opinion on players, not a fan of Gaff, if we sign him,  hope not, will support him like I do all MFC players.

Contrary to popular belief, don't gush at players, just chat to them on a number of subject

Last conversation was with Nut Harmes on daschunds

As for Murphy?  would be amazed if we even asked

@dazzledavey36 Chunk liked the video, so an opinion of a faux tough guy doesn't really matter

Based on this he will win the Bluey 3 years in a row from next season.

Yeah, nah 

Putting Murphy on our list would be an act of extreme stupidity.

Subject to medical and the right money I think Murphy would be a fantastic fit for us. We are brimming with big bodied inside midfielders and desperately lack outside class. 

We don't have a first round pick so it's not like we can add an Oliver Florent mid or Ed Richards half back flanker.

Even if Murphy was managed through 15 games a season I'd prefer him on the list to half a dozen of the spuds we have running around at Casey or perpetually clogging the injury list. 

People who laugh at Murphy ought to name some alternative pace that we can get for nothing. David Mackay? Gaff is run all day on the outside fast. He's not burst away from a stoppage fast.

Can we sub contract the Richmond medical staff to do the medical considering Marc’s foot problems this year

Hes about  cooked 13 or 14 post season operations. And a bit soft when the heat is applied

I’m sure you’ll let him in on your opinion next year when you’re annoying him at Gosch’s.

Mate I live in WA and that is nonsense. There was a period around 14 & 15 when teams stopped runningwith Priddis and started putting work into the outsiders in Shuey and Gaff.

So not any Meth Coast fan wantedchim dropped last season. Many complained about him being to outside but he is hardly a one season wonder
