Austin Wonaeamirri

DEELIRIOUS

I still think he is more worthwhile than Maric. Aussie is a great kick but more importantly, a good user who knows how to find the right spots. Maric is a good kick, has good skills, but can't put it together.

Aussie may not be fit until round three or four. He will effectively be missing the first four or five weeks of pre-season. Not ideal but if he manages not stack it on over the lay-off, he might be OK.

Who cares if he's better than Maric? Both will be delisted; it's not a choice between Maric and Wonaeamirri.

Aussie's obviously got a lot to offer as a player, but senior list spots are like gold. I really feel for the guy with what he's been going through, but this is a tough business and the club can't wait forever. I agree with the delist and rookie listing approach. The player still gets full support from the club and the bills paid for another year, and the club can still harness the player if he's able to get it together mentally and physically without being a player down if he can't. This is the best result to be had in an unfortunate situation.

    Sampi had more control over the kitchen implement than Wonna had over his fathers situation. Sampi's issues were very much in his control regime. Wonna's issues are not on a par. There are better analogies for Wonna than Sampi.

    Rhino forget what you may have read on Wickepedia or in the press the incident you are referring to was the final straw in a long list of off field transgressions, incidents and problems he was having, most of which were kept from the media.

    After this incident WCE and Sampi sought treatment for a condition he actually had no control over. It was a cry for help. To my knowledge he is the better for the help he has received

    I am glad Sampi is turning it around. His off field situation is indeed sad and destructive and has been for some time. Some of the issues did not make it the Press but he has had his demons for some time. IMO he was more talented than Wonna and could really have been a player but his decent into his personal hell has been far darker and nastier than the difficulties Wonna has had to deal with.

    Well lets hope we are both proved wrong and Wonna comes back pre season trim and full of desire, plays to his potential and becomes a key crumbing forward in a regular Top 4 contender and hopefully greater things

    Sorry PSD I may have been a little obscure

    I was referring to Wona.

    • Thank You Simon Goodwin

      As Demon fans, we’ve ridden a rollercoaster of emotions over the decades; the heartbreaks, the near misses, the wooden spoons, and the endless waiting. But through it all, we clung to hope. And then came Simon Goodwin. Before he ever wore red and blue, he was a champion in his own right. A five-time All-Australian, two-time Best and Fairest, and two-time premiership hero and Captain with Adelaide, Simon Goodwin was always destined to lead. When he transitioned from the field to the coach's box, first as an assistant at Essendon, he began shaping a new legacy.

    • PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

      Long ago and far away, the Melbourne Football Club replaced its coach in difficult circumstances after the team suffered a devastating loss. In the aftermath, I penned the following words: “Then came the politics, the intrigue, the axing, the sound of the football world laughing at a club, the circling of the media vultures, the reinvention of history, the anger, the irony, the pathos, the hurt on the face of the president, the dignified departure of the coach, and the determination of the newly appointed caretaker.” Today, we’re back in the same place although one difference here is that the coach who was terminated this time is Simon Goodwin, the man who four years ago

    • REPORT: West Coast

      The Charles Dickens novel, A Tale of Two Cities, opens with, “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, …”  This phrase highlights many of the significant challenges that humanity encounters in life, ranging from experiencing remarkable highs to living in times of despair. This is a concept that should resonate with all supporters of the Melbourne Football Club this morning as they reflect on its comprehensive 83-point victory over the struggling West Coast Eagles at Marvel Stadium. The outcome proved beyond doubt that they are the worst of clubs and that we are the best of the worst.

    • PREGAME: Western Bulldogs

      With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      The Demons return to town fresh off a thumping win over the back-to-back wooden spooners, the West Coast Eagles, played in front of a sparse crowd at Marvel Stadium, the same venue that hosted last week's heartbreaking loss.
