yep, so the worry was definitely not worth it in the end!

So happy! So very happy! It's not just keeping him but the faith he has placed in us and where we are going. Great work Dees!

 

WOOHOO

Herald Sun article petterd garland rivers.

"But as soon as I started playing footy and seeing the direction we were going in, it was pretty hard not to sign a contract to be honest." "The players were the biggest reason I stayed. The biggest thing was the boys."

Well done Ricky - Great to have you on board for the next few years.

Great great news.

So relieved.

Thanks for staying Ricky.

Great news on Col and Riv also.

WOOHOO

I'm surprised Rivers got two more, I don't think he is in the best 22 now, so by 2012 we could be in the same position we are in with Newton and Messon.

Rivers more than deserves two and is in our best 22.

Rivers more than deserves two and is in our best 22.

Frawley, Garland and Pettard were all 3 VERY important signings.

The only other players that need to urgently be resigned are Bate and Watts. However realistically Watts is too much of a risk for GC17 to throw mountains of cash at, because he's no certainty to become a player, so i'm not worried there.

Great signings.

My dream of seeing this forward line is still alive.

Green Bate Sylvia

Pettard Watts Jurrah

With Dunn, Wona, Jetta, Bennel, Tapscott, Fitzpatrick as forward options, there is no doubt that those 6 above are all genuine goal kickers with enourmous talent.


But... but... McKenna bought a house on the GoldCoast...

I don't understand how Petterd could stay with us in spite of that...

I have it on good authority that Petterd is off to the Gold Coast next season. Now, the AFL has just released information that clubs will be compensated in the following manner:

Elite Player: 2 first round draft picks

2nd Category: 1st round draft pick

3rd Category: Selection at the end of round 1

4th Category: Round 2 Selection

5th Category: Round 3 Selection

The question is, what category does Petterd fall into? The thing is, Petterd hasn't been able to show his full worth due to injury. But I would love it if he managed to slip into the 2nd Category although I think that to be honest, he is probably more a category 3 player given he has been injured all year.

Thoughts?

Where is that mansion quote?

Come on! The papers must have it wrong - Freak even knows the address!

Edited by E25

Can somebody post the list of remaining uncontracted players. I couldn't find it using the search function.

With Frawley, Garland and Pettard signed, most of the important young guns are locked away.

I'd like to see how many other really important youngsters have yet to sign. Watts and Bate are the only 2 I can think of off the top of the head


Oh the joys.

In all seriousness though, it's very good news for the club.

Sylv, the Gys and Scully were two mentioned in the article, along with Watts. Not sure of any others - it's all too hard to remember!

YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH....

hahahahahaha this sums up 90% of demonland threads in a nutshell

more than happy to be wrong. :)

more than happy to be wrong. :)

It was the "good authority" you mentioned that had it wrong.

The picture on the Herald Sun site is FARKIN' EPIC


Well, looks like the GC17 will have to look elsewhere for talent.

I believe the following are out of contract:

Bail

Bartram

Cheney

Bate

Watts

Blease

Miller

Maric

Dunn

Bruce

Bell

PJ

Martin

Newton*

Meesen*

Hughes*

Healey*

Spencer*

Spencer will be offered a contract on the seniors, leaving us with a clean slate for the rookie list. The dees will look to re-up Blease, Maric, Dunn, Watts, Batram, Bail and Bruce. I think Cheney might be asked to to a "Jordie" and play on the rookie list next season. This may also be the path for Maric who has much to prove.

Maric is signed til the end of 2011

 

I'll be smiling allday !!! Anyone that was SOOOOO certain he was gone please pick up your credability on the way out.

you little beauty!!! great stuff Ricky

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.
