Jones has inked in a 2yr contract with the dees knocking back offers from the bombers and suns

Strange then that neither he nor the club have said anything.

Does seem to be getting there though.

    On the club's page it now says that Jones, Bartram, Moloney and Bleese have signed for two years; Jack Grimes has extended to 2013.

    Edit Forgot about Barts.

    Nice work! I was thinking he might be on his way to Essendon for Davey. Guess not.

    Bruce, PJ

    Looks like we have got most our key players out of the GWS reach only Scully comes to mind that I would love to see a contract extension before the years end

    Great news!

    GWS have 2 years at uncontracted players - so only players signed in 2013 are safe from them.

    Scully is right til end of next year, usual 2 year deal for draftees....

    Suprised about Blease, assumed he would get one year to show something. Must have faith in the kid.

    Great to hear about Jones, Beamer and Bartram. All great players, solid clubmen, and the types of blokes we need for a charge at that flag.

    And Grimesy, just get back out on that field ASAP!

    Scully did get two years as a new draftee ... contracted until the end of 2011.

    Jack Grimes, get on the park mate cause you are a star!! Love this guy :wub:

    Good signings, hopefully next year lock Scully in early past 2012 and away from any GWS clutches.

    Well done to Jones & Beamer - good mates that will be fighting for one spot shortly the way I see it.

    Great news. Keep up the great work FD.

    Yeah the standard 2 year draftee deal....ok. It Was trengove that signed for the extra year. Is there something in that or am I being paranoid?

    great stuff by the FD once again. They are locking away in long term deals all our most important youngsters (Trengove, Frawley, Grimes) and signing up on 2 year deals alot of guys that still have something to prove.

    So much better than the old FD who gave long term deals to 27 years olds (Yze, White) on huge pay packets.

    I agree that Scully should be absolute priority on a 3-4 year extension, there is nothing more certain in the world than him becoming a gun AFL player. No risk involved.

    Who is left unsigned?

    - Bruce and PJ definitely. I'm still uncertain in Warnock is still contracted & being put up for trade.

    Does this mean we're likely to have a quiet trade week?

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Brisbane

      Forget the haunting of Round 11 — we’ve got this. Melbourne returns to its inner-city fortress for its milestone 100th AFLW match, carrying a formidable 10–2 record at IKON Stadium. Brisbane’s record at the venue is more balanced: 4 wins, 4 losses and a draw.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Geelong

      It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
