just wondering if anyone else heard on "sen" this morning that "ricky pettard" has told the MFC club he doesnt want to talk about contract renewal until the end of 2010...thoughts?????

 

There is about 400 threads on this topic already

i dont think we have to much to worry about.

he might just want to concentrate on the season and leave it till the end

hope he stays
 

The guy's just trying to get as much money as he can. Good on him. If he stays at Melbourne, that's great. If he leaves, then that's just how it goes. At least we may have a little more room in our cap.

We'll get compensation too.

And... even though it was ridiculed when it was floated a few weeks ago, the idea that clubs would inflate B&F performances to get better compensation has now been raised in the Hun (don't have the link right now).

That's interesting. It seems that Mark Thompson isn't interested in doing that for Gary Ablett, though, based on his post-match interview last week. I guess he really wants him to stay, no matter what the cost.

Most people who are given a lot all at once are less careful with what they spend. I think GC and GWS might also fall into this trap. They will have a lot of money and some pretty juicy picks to trade, and I think they might just be a little less than frugal in their dealings with the currently existing clubs. I hope we can take advantage of this, if it comes to it.

There won't be any trading though, unless we lose more than one player to GC17.

The AFL will decide compensation for players leaving to join Gary Clifford Irons (or, rather, Ken Wood will decide)

  • REPORT: Fremantle

    For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

  • CASEY: UWS Giants

    The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

  • POSTGAME: Fremantle

    A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
