hahaha 'revenge' for taking Mcphee? Is everyone who is coming back home talking to Essendon? Sounds like it.. will be interesting to see who they can actually get seeing as they must surely now be considered one of the weaker clubs..

.................... Is everyone who is coming back home talking to Essendon? Sounds like it...............

A senior coach would be handy before they make too many decisions on their list. Ha! Ha!

Mundy has been very impressive in the Freo games I have watched this year. He will be in high demand so will cost big dollars and I am not sure we will have room in the salary cap next year with all our front-ended contracts in place.

They were speaking about him on triple m last night. He is on around 500-550k a year at Freo, so won't come cheap. That would make him our highest paid player for sure.

Pass.

We need to develop our young guys.

Need a young big forward (eg. Jesse White, Taylor Walker) or young ruckman (eg. Jacobs) that wont cost the world!

Sadly toooo expensive in salary & picks needed I would expect. Had a great season.

Pass for me

I would be amazed if we didn't have some room in the cap for him, and a little dissapointed. He can play, i say chase him, aggresively if necessary.

Great player but would only hinder the development of our guys who will surely pass him in one or two years.

If the young players pass him (a great player) in one or two years time then how does it hinder their development???

I doubt MFC will be hot in the market for him particularly given the alleged price on his head (It seems a little high for his current contract. :rolleyes: I could believe his manager would be pedalling the $500k+ plus to boost his commission cheques on the future contract).

Indeed. :rolleyes:

Thanks Bingo. That sounds more realistic.

That makes more sense re his current salary. I still would not take him- need talls.

I would'nt be surprised if we make a big play for him. Bomber's too make bigger play though I would think.

The Dee's are no longer the laughing stock where players dont want to go. Well that remains to be seen at the moment.

Mundy should see more upside to Melbourne than Essendon. It will come down to $$$$$$!

Yes this year onwards The MFC can really put itself out there with Pride & Strength. Those new Training Facilities will help no end to our Image as a serious Club. Right in the Heart of Melbourne too.

Thank God the Junction Oval is now a memory...David Mundy would be a good get, once again at a good (realistic price) We should never pay too much for any player, particularly when they will want to come to play with us.

We are the name of this City-No other club has that. B)

I was just reading an article on (sportsnews first) and it says Melbourne are keen on luring the silky midfielder home.

Clearly this will come at a pretty big price. This shows we may be a player in trade week (interested to hear some thoughts).


Posted

Just said in WA news that Mundy is keen to get back home with Essendon throwing bags of cash his way... but it is WA news.

Posted

Despite what it will take to get him here I can not see a down side to mundy, a very skillfull ball winner that kicks goals regularly. Therefore takes pressure of both our young small bodied midfield and forward line. I dont see how we can loose.

Posted

Your best work always comes out at this time of year...

did I just hear someone say "don't encourage him!"..?

Posted

This bloke's a gun.

I say we go after him all guns blazing. Would be a sensational addition.

Freo are going to want a player and probably a draft pick for him. I've got no problem with that.

Money isn't an issue for us right now.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
