    Gee, Vossy is on a good "wicket" if these salaries are accurate by Mike Sheahan's estimates....

    edit: Malthouse appears to be overpaid a little in terms of results. No wonder he wants to stay...

    Malthouse is a joke. I seriously felt like punching the screen when I saw his press conference on the weekend.

    Journo: "Do you think your boys came to play today?"

    Malthouse: "What do you think? I mean, what kind of question is that? 'did they come to play?' What does that mean? When people say that I don't understand the question."

    It's a figure of speech your arrogant [censored].

    I think DB will be moving up the list when he negotiates his next contract... I would imagine he will be pushing 500k the next time he puts pen to paper.... Results/Improvement in the list will guarantee this IMHO

    I have no problem with that response. It's lazy journalism and a nothing question. For guys who get paid to be good with words and language, and who are meant to be fairly clued up on how football works, the journos at those press conferences can and often do ask rubbishy questions that anyone could have asked.

    Not that I'm a fan of Malthouse in general.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
