geez i'd love to get a full team on the park one day just to see how good we really are. bloody stiff luck ricky certainly did something wrong in hes past life!

Thats really sad news. So much to like about ricky, good over head, great on the ground, has a little bit of mongrel about him and you can tell he loves to be involved in the play, sounds silly i know, but he looks like he wants to be in every contest, and that is infectious.

Someone else can now shoulder (pun intended) the fwd line responsability.

Shattered, another season of development wasted. Looked really promising. I like players who love a contest and ricky is one of those.

That's our third shoulder injury this year. Jeepers.

Maybe Bohdan's to blame.

All the best to Ricky in his recovery though. But I don't think he'll make it back by the end of the year, so he'll be set on Round 1.

Shattering news, he's setting himself up nicely to become one of the most dangerous forwards in the comp in the coming years.

All the best in your recovery Ricky and please say with Melbourne at seasons end.

I'm getting a dejavu feeling, Scott Thompson 2004 with his foot injury when he was having his breakout year, got injured and never played for Melbourne again.

He stated a couple of weeks ago that he was going to wait until the end of the year to sign a contract.

Will be interesting to see what he does over the next 4 months in regards to this.

I suspect the longer he goes on without signing the likelihood of him heading north is increased.

well a dodgy shoulder might do more for us to keep him than more for Ricky being offered a GC contract.

Or we end up fitting the bill for him to get right only to pizz off after he is right

Some good-ish news from his twitter:

Not the results i was lookin 4, still a bit hard to swallow.Already lookin forward to putting on the red n blue in 2011! thanks for the msg!

Best sign yet he wants at the dees next year

Crap...

On one hand, he's done enough to keep his place on the list, and his return will be anticipated greatly.

On the other hand, if he IS on the way to GC, the compensatory pick we would have gotten after 22 rounds of him would have been a lot better than whatever they'd give us now.

If it's the second scenario, we lose. BIG time.

Memo to Number 15 for Melbourne FC: 'Ricky... don't lose that number'. Stay at the Dees next year.

Gday Dedders, thanks for the kind message upon my log in. I am indeed a complete $%^^&&*. Spent way too much time orchestrating your lifetime ban on Ology.

Good result in the end of course. Stay well!!

Shattered to lose Ricky for 2010.

I am really hoping he signs and we get to see him again.

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
