Has there ever been a case where a player has won the B+F for a club he no longer plays for?!

(I am assuming our B+F is after trade week?)

    Bloody internet. :wacko:

    That's mean spirited sarcasm and it makes the neurotic people on here feel bad.

    Apologise or be called a [censored].

    Your choice.

    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.

    agreed

    everybody relax, most of this talk is all hearsay and speculation.

    Just be patient, good news will probably come

    Can somebody please explain to me .... How Essendon, Collingwood or any other club for that matter propose to obtain Aaron Davey?

    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!

    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.

    We should hold Robbo to this:

    12:39 [Robbo]

    I think Davey will stay at Melbourne

    Robbo didn't publish my comment:

    "Are we allowed to trade Miller, but keep his wife?"

    Can't think why.

    He also didn't go with my "M. Newton for Pavlich and pick 4?"

    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.

    • REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
