A list of who is out of contract would help the guessing - any takers?

Try the OP of the List Management thread.

Inner Demon has done all the work for you.

Thanks, have copied it below for others reference

This list then represents GC17's "opportunity" to sign out-of-contract MFC players this year

Some big names still on the list

. . . the unofficial, uncontracted player list which has circulated in other threads. . . .

Warnock, Bruce, Jones, Watts, Bate, Miller, Johnson, Bell, Moloney, McDonald, Bail, Blease, Strauss, McNamara.

with two games still to go? pull the other one and it plays jingle bells.

Hahahahaha!! Love it.

Pretty big call considering the year that Frawley and big Jamar have had! And, just quietly, Brad Green...

Posted

Would not be a good move for Bate if he went to Gold Coast - too much sunshine and way too many UV rays for a Ranga!

Has possible OH & S implications too! He would have to play all 'home day games' in a long sleeve jumper, trousers and a legionaires cap!

Posted

I have heard the Bruce rumour many times in the past, with Junior going i think we need his experience...

We got to get Warnock, Jones, Watts, Moloney Bail, Blease & Strauss signed ASAP, thats the best of depth in our list!

I spoke to Bail in the rooms a few weeks back and he said he is close to signing, guess he wasnt going to tell me different either way!

Yes. It is certainly a big stigma and a huge sense of shame for those sides that gave the first win in the AFL to Brisbane, Sydney, West Coast, Freo, Adelaide and Port Adelaide.....who ever they were.

Hawthorn lost to Adelaide in Crows first game.

Did West Coast beat North Melbourne?

Um, yeah that's about all I can remember.

jones wont go as some have said he obsessed with the melbourne footy club going by his tweets lol

Posted

Miller not named for this weeks clash.... off to Gold Coast me thinks!

i found that weird too, with the 23rd player last week and now not even on this emergencies.. odd

Hasn't he been saying on Twitter that his back has given up up him?

Posted

Any word on if Melbourne would take Scott Thompson as he is returning to Victoria, probably need a trade as they lose goodwin burton edwards bock and maybe mcleod

Scott will re sign with Crows very soon. Will finish his career with them.

Posted

I reckon ablett is going going gone. he has not put anything to bed in telling the club of a decision, yet when he could have. paul connors reckons he is good as gone. the bruce talk is folly.

A Geeeelong insider told me that he is currently looking for a house to buy up here in Melbourne and that he is back with long time girlfriend Lauren. Read what you may into that.

Hahaha your "Geelong insider" could have easily been reading those details in the papers for the last

month. Common knowledge.

He has signed apparently

Posted

Bate would need to spend the extra $$$ he would get on sun screen so would prob end up earning less :)

If he was traded to Canberra he might be a chance with the ranga in chief.

Posted

Stupid comment.

Ablett has had plenty of chance to put it to bed... If he had actually already made a decision.

He hasn't.

Why on earth would he commit one way or the other when he doesn't yet know himself?

The Bruce talk is highley unlikey.

For once in my life- I agree with ya.

MFC would be foolish to take Thompson IMO.

Posted

That's what I heard.

Imagine thier offspring. Big strong Rangas armed with gargantuan ear lobes that both mesmerise and knock over the opposition, expert snipers ... always moving forward, moving forward, moving forward....

And here they all are............... so far. -_-

Not a MFC rumour, but here it is!

Michael Voss will be sacked as Brisbane Lions coach at the end of the season.

Source is from a relative who has connections with coaching staff from there reserves side.

Time will tell!

There's definitely trouble over at Brisbane.

Problems with the review of the club being conducted by Voss, players disgruntled and wanting to leave and now a big resignation at the top.

PORT ADELAIDE

Far out, that really set Geelong back didn't it. You just can't talk about Geelong or Port Adelaide these days and not think back to the day Port notched their first win.

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu

Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
