Some posters think it justice for our tanking..I mean experimenting and that its Robbos curse of disatisfaction with these tactics that has caused some upheaval at the club.

I will be devastated if he goes but I did feel during the season that the club was holding him back when he was in the best form of his career. There were jokes on here about keeping him on the bench. Why wouldn't he feel aggrieved that he was being robbed of his peak form?

i hope that all players, like supporters and coaching staff can see the bigger picture, that last year, there were certain things that were a prioroty.. If you were smart, and understood the position, every player should want to play for Melbourne now, as there will never be a year like we just had, it's full noise from here, And Aaron Davey should hang in there, just like all the supporters have.

I really dont want him to go, we gave him a chance when no one else did and he should be a demon forever.

For the people who expect Melbourne to improve on this year next year if we trade Aaron Davey, you are surely mistaken.

However, I am a guy who loves the sound of having picks 1, 2, 10, 11, 18 in a draft that will be without a Gold Coast & West Sydney dominated draft.

It won't help Dean Bailey next year of course but will ultimately help the Melbourne FC in the next few years. Unfortunately, as always, I believe we're late in making such trades considering we've bottomed out the past few years. Brock McLean, an up & coming player is gone, & if Aaron Davey goes, that's a lot of youthful experience gone to clubs that are progressing into the top 8.

Melbourne should have made these trades 3 years ago. Not now, you would think.

Next year, we should be on the way up. It's been too long on the bottom & to be quite honest, I'm sick of it. But now, I'm afraid without these two guys out, there's not many indicators for change next year.

With all this said, we have been a mediocre side for a while now & with mediocrity brings a need for a clean out.

I'm neither for or against it at this stage. All I can hope is that we know what we're doing...

Mind you, improvment will happen soon. Next year or the year after we will make big moves up the ladder. Remember, we do have Liam Jurrah.

Go Dees! Stop.. Jurrah-Time!

'Ox' also told the whole world that on SEN.

My post wasn't a Big News Extra Extra heads-up re the Ox, Davey and SEN - that's old hat. My post was a pointer that there was trade talk at the Hun and that it didn't take long for someone to ask about Davey.

Is that a surprise?

Many Melbourne supporters are probably having kittens and given his high profile I'm sure it's of interest to fans of other Clubs.

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the

    GAMEDAY: Rd 15 vs North Melbourne

    It's Game Day and it very well could be the last roll of the dice for the Demon's finals aspirations in 2024. A loss to the bottom side would be another embarrassing moment in a cursed year for the Dees whilst a win could be the spark they need to reignite the fire in the belly.

    THE HUNTER by The Oracle

    Something struck me as I sat on the couch watching the tragedy of North Melbourne’s attempt to beat Collingwood unfold on Sunday afternoon at the MCG.    It was three quarter time, the scoreboard had the Pies on 12.7.79, a respectable 63.16% in terms of goal kicking ratio. Meanwhile, the Roos’ 18.2.110 was off the charts at 90.00% shooting accuracy. I was thinking at the same time of Melbourne’s final score only six days before, a woeful 6.15.51 or 28.57% against Collingwood’s 14.5.89

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t
