What does Dumont need to get a game? I really feel for the guy and thought hes had something to offer in the last month. If we're going for a flag, why not play these mature age players with AFL experience? Same thing with Sam Mayes, I never understood why we never played these versatile players more often that you knew could be depended on to do a job.
For that matter why didn't Jay Nash, Darren Pfeiffer and Danny Meyer get more games at Port?
These are vanilla, break glass in emergency type players to plug temporary holes. In most other cases, you should be playing up and coming potentials that could nail down roles, such as Jones, Williams, Farrell, etc.
There's no future for Dumont in our side, he would understand that. He's likely quite chuffed to be paid so well to run around in the snafl

You mean vanilla like Riley generic as they come Bonner?
In the games Dumont played last year he showed composure and was decent going forward. All I'm saying is we've been rotating the same mature age players in and out (Bonner, Narkle) by rewarding their form in the 2s. Going off Dumonts stats this whole season, you'd think he'd at least get a sniff

Just the end of the road I think.
Don't think Dumont has put a foot wrong in the time he's been at the club but there's younger options that offer as much. Trent is a mid and we have some pretty good mids.

Says who? I can't find any mention of this anywhere outside of your post.
Dumont is better than Bonner. Playthekids76 your thoughts?

sloane out would be a negative for us, no matter which spud they put in. absolutely cooked
You do realise Bonner and Dumont play completely different roles, right? If we play Dumont it's at the expense of Rozee, Butters, JHF or Wines.

I'm sure he could've played the mead role v Carlton with much more effectiveness. From what I remember, he was on the wing for duurs in the games he played last year and was one of the better performers who didn't shit the bed

Yes to Houston to Midfield, No to Bonner for Run
If he leaves it will because he wants to return to Victoria,When did he do his knee? What round would we expect him to be able to play?
Not against the idea... Imagine $$ he wouldn't be to expensive (injury) and don't need to give up any draft capital
The added bonus is the crows getting upset
A few Melbourne clubs have made enquiries to his manager.
Heard it yesterday on SEN. Can't remember who said it though.
Our wings were hopeless last week X is not right and it is rubbish playing Wines on the other wing.
Wines strengths are as an in and under player, not a two way runner. Bergamn could be on the wing but we need his marking skills in defence.
We are playing for keeps, I would bring in Dumont to plays on a wing.
Not Bonner: both he and Farrell should never be in the same team, both outside players with a lovely kick but they expose us down back as neither can take a tackle (hence pinged for whacking the pill out of bounds).

Bring in Hugh Jackson, he would love the intensity. He would get under the skin of some crowies.

I would like to see him get a run for sure.
Throwing players into a different position when they are in dominant AA form is a hard no from me.
Move Houston out of the midfield and put him in the midfield

Take Wines out of the midfield and put him in the bin
The elephant in the room is the older guys carrying injuries and needing a rest/ replacement asap.
Heard it again today. He was spotted at a radiology practice with a compression bandage around his calf.
