    so either someone is playing games with us OR someone went and spoke to a random stranger who he thought was prismal and had his pants pulled down on the internet...

    no it wasn't 100% fully recovered. he played because half our list had injuries that actually prevented them with walking, look at luke ball- he's played with it before- as with moloney. However, end of 2007 he fixed it up, sometimes it just gets right, others it takes forver, but moloney is away from his OP days.

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but Moloney is out of contract this year. No sign of a renewal yet. ;)

    I am not suggesting that i know prismall is coming to melbourne. I can confirm that i have reliable sources who tell me that he wants to change clubs. I know 2 people who know him pretty well.

    I hope we get him.

    ...

    so whats your take on this now? did you talk to someone who wasn't brent prismall?

  • Quote
    I find it funny how people are perfectly understanding about Prismall telling his plans to a complete stranger, yet if it was a young Demon kid doing the same thing there would be an outrage.

    Yeah, your right, lets bring the gestapo to silence these free talking individuals who think they have a right to talk of their affairs. :o

    total non story...

    Find another thread to crap on guys.

    By the way, this thread is "straight from the horses mouth". Reminds me of a stable pun.

    "She was only the stableman's daughter, but all the horse manure".

    The 2 yr contract has been mentioned for some weeks. Even in todays Age(?). But still not signed. You gotta wonder?

    The comparison to Moloney makes me shudder. Moloney's been an injury riddled mess since he came to MFC and hasn't had one tenth of the impact expected of him and his lack of run almost renders him completely useless in the modern game. Yes he was a good player when he was fit, that doesnt make the return any better though.

    Im all for getting Prismall if its cheap, Im trying to block all comparisons to Moloney out of my head though, the Moloney trades been a disaster.

    "The impact expected of him" give the guy a break! I don't know what expectations you heaped upon the young bloke but surely you must of known we weren't

    getting chris judd when we got him. All I knew of him at the time is that he was a hard at it midfield type who could kick the cover off a ball and was rated highly

    at the cats. Cant say that discription differs too much from what we have got from him at melbourne, despite the fact he has been crippled with injury. When he

    went down this year he was one of the few blokes bleeding for the jumper week in week out an attribute in short supply at MFC. Pretty sure he also

    fits into the select group of actually growing up barracking for the dee's, which shows me his heart is in the right place. Tough, kicks a mile and doesn't

    mind a bit of poke with the opposition gives him a tick in my book. Give the guy a chance to give you a "return" on the the investment.

    Oh and yes for the right price I would take prismal. We aren't challenging any time soon so we can afford to give the kid time to get up and running again.

    Geelong got him in the PSD, we got a first round pick (12?) for Scott Thompson and then ontraded that to Geelong for Moloney, who ontraded that and their first round pick for Ottens.

    Adelaide and Geelong did well.............. <_<

    Richmond and the Dees got shafted.

  • Quote

    Look on the bright side at least the Hawks screw us two years in a row, I hope they sent the Kangaroos a thank you card.

  • Quote

    If he is to leave Geelong and come to Melbourne we hould take him in PSD. No one is going to trade for a player who's going to miss all of 09 through injury.

  • Quote

    good

    lets ge thim then

    but geelong might accept prismall for pick 81 or something...with the threat of PSD. seriously. look at the dempster, gardiner and king deals last year

    May I remind you all who told you that this was going to happen.

    Apologies MAY be accepted once presented to me.

    How do you like them apples, Deanox.

  • Quote

    haha well done deestroyers- still a lot of water to go under the bridge!- let's hope by friday 2pm he's a demon

    green for prismall i'd take, but cats probably want a draft pick- although- they are going for the flag next year and green could be handy inclusion.

    may ultimately happen now given something that happened at Cats, but it certainly didn't happen the way you reckon mate. I asked his mum today and he was DEFINITELY NOT at that pub when you reckon he was.

    He will either end up at dees or north at this stage, but don't start crowing champ about your original post. You may get lucky but you will still talking crap about the circumstances.

    How else would I know about it, mate.

    Haha go ask his mum, may aswell have asked Chris Judds grandma.

    What, does she hold his hand every night and tuck him into bed? The kid was out for a beer. Hes not 16, he doesnt need to tell Mumsie what he does every night.

    • FEATURE: 1925

      A hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.

    • PREVIEW: West Coast

      Saturday’s election night game in Perth between the West Coast Eagles and Melbourne represents 18th vs 15th which makes it a tough decision as to which party to favour. The Eagles have yet to break the ice under their new coach in Andrew McQualter who is the second understudy in a row to confront Demon Coach Simon Goodwin who was also winless until a fortnight ago. On that basis, many punters might be considering to go with the donkey vote but I’ve been assigned with the task of helping readers to come to a considered opinion on this matter of vital importance across the nation. It was almost a year ago that I wrote a preview here of the Demons’ away game against the Eagles (under the name William from Waalitj because it was Indigenous Round).  I issued a warning that it was a danger game, based on my local knowledge that the home team were no longer easybeats and that they possessed a wunderkind generational player in Harley Reid who was capable of producing stellar performances playing among men a decade and more older than he.  At the time, the Eagles already had two wins off the back of a couple of the young man’s masterclasses and they had recently given the Bombers a scare straight after their Anzac Day blockbuster draw against the then reigning premiers.

    • NON-MFC: Round 08

      Round 08 of the 2025 AFL Season kicks off on Thursday with a must-win game for the Bombers to stay in touch with the top eight, while the struggling Roos seek a morale-boosting upset. Friday sees the Saints desperate for a win as well if they are to stay in finals contention and their opponents the Dockers will be eager to crack in to the Top 8 with a win on the road. Saturday kicks off with a pivotal clash for both sides asthe Bulldogs look to solidify their top-eight spot, while Port seeks to shake their pretender tag. Then the Crows will be looking to steady their topsy turvy season against a resurgent Blues looking to make it 4 wins on the trot. On Election Night a Blockbuster will see the ladder-leading Pies take on the Cats, who are keen to bounce back after a narrow loss. On Sunday the Sydney Derby promises fireworks as the Giants aim to cement their top-eight status, while the Swans fight to keep their season alive. The Hawks, celebrating their centenary, will be looking to easily account for the Tigers who are desperate to halt their slide. The Round concludes on Sunday Night with a top end of the table QClash with significant ladder implications; both Queensland teams are in scintillating form. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

      The Demons hit the road in Round 8, heading to Perth to face the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium. With momentum building, the Dees will be aiming for a third straight victory to keep their season revival on course. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • REPORT: Richmond

      The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.
