Quarterbrain on Ten news about to talk about a 'Demons star' set to quit.

Obviously talking about Aussie, and man, he got his words twisted. Will definitely be rookied if he doesn't come back soon but we aren't getting rid of him that easily.

Wona has certainly had a very rough trot, and the Club has shown him an amazing amount of latitude and consideration.

But all that said - Wona really owes it to the Club to let them know well before the desisting period if he is really prepared to make the commitment and the sacrifices needed to play AFL footy.

If he is not he surely cannot expect to occupy a place on the list. IF he could go to the rookie list then it could be an option - he is going to have his work cut out just to regain general and match fitness after a year out of AFL, however strong his commitment.

And someone mentioned AFL compassionate rules - I haven't heard of these. To be really cynical (and I am sure that I hear voices calling me paranoid), how could we possibly trust Herr Fuehrer and Anderson to not change the interpretation as and when they feel like it, like they do with the salary cap rules?

If he doesn't commit before the trade/delisting period then we simply make the call for him. That's not harsh, thats reasonable.

I like the idea of putting him on the rookie list if he still maintains interest but isn't 100% committed and back before the end of the season.

.......

Correct on both counts. For mine, his modest form and (lack of) conditioning for the past few years should have meant he is marginal at best anyway.

Time to cut him loose. We are not a sheltered workshop (ask Junior).

He was a bright spot during some very dark days. Sad to see him go, but it is what it is and we have to move on.

No point even retaining him on the rookie list. Once he goes back to NT he isn't coming back. Besides, we could use that rookie spot to unearth another Nicholson type.

We are hungry for success, and we need players who are hungry for it.

If, he wants out of Melbourne I'd hope we could maybe organise a trade with Brisbane for him.. A win/win is better than losing him. It's a tad warmer up there, & closer to home for him.

look on the map of aus... brisbane is thousands of ks from darwin plus a hop over to the tiwis. if he doesnt wnt to come back to melbourne hes not gunna want to play there.

The team will be in Darwin in a couple of weeks. No doubt Aussie will be there to catch up with the boys or at least someone from the coaching staff will catch up with him then. Let's wait & see what happens after that.

Might stir up some desire or at least help Aussie to make a decision.

Aussie's mum came up to a supporter at the game on Saturday night to tell her that Aussie was coming back.

Once again....all the journalist's were wrong....They know as much fact as we do most of the time. Keep this in mind when putting the Scully scenario into perspective...They do not know what is REALLY happening.

Welcome back Austen...The Club obviously loves you very much, so i am very happy you want to return...Get fit little guy and tear it up in 2012.

Wonna has shown that players DO want to play for this club....a very positive sign going forward.

Range Rover, it's good to see the angry mob holding Quartermain accountable for his incorrect reporting of Aussie's career's demise...

He's copping it left, right and centre.

That'll teach him.

Good thing he didn't make a premature prediction on Tom Scully's future...

Well certainly Kelly Underwood was wrong when she announced on Ten News that he would not return this year and would play in Darwin in 2012.

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi
