I'm trying to imagine Maric playing like Stokes or Christensen in the GF - and struggling.

IMO he's still a bit young in his mind.

The last Pre season was a good indicator of him starting to mature, but he still let things slip when it wasn't given to him on a platter.

He could continue to improve slowly or not, It's up to his inner Attitude.

I'm out of patience with these Non Physical type players. We have a budding list and I for one want to move on to fresh faces in the Small Forward/Mid, area.

You had to ask where the Weet Bix is in a Coles? Either you made up the story because you don't like Indians, or you really aren't the sharpest tool in the shed.

Just want to write this and see what people think... Brad Green has been a Melbourne player since 1999. He has played 241 games. He has won games off his own boot. He has ran with the flight of th

The Eagles are travelling to Los Pollos Hermanos before the game tonight to get a 'winning edge'; must be something in the chicken.

According to the Hun, North have already interviewed Maric and given him a medical.

Fait accompli, it seems.

Not much of a loss really.

Especially if we land Lisle.

We must be certain of having room on our list though.

Maybe it's due to one of our players-to-be being ineligible for the 2012 season?

Warnock & Bate WILL find new homes.

It just depends on what we get in return.

Maybe it's also why Green has still not re-signed?

But I find it hard to believe his contract negotiations are being held off because we might not have room for him on the list.

Was in Belgrave Safeway again last night, and overheard the same guy telling another checkout chick that the Dees are cert's to get both Goddard and Brad Crouch, in a complex deal involving 5 other clubs including the Bombers who trade Heppel to GWS then get him back again in an on-trade that includes a solid guarantee that Sheedy stays in Sydney.

Noticed he was stocking up on Oreos which are on special.

Which is Pick 37

Mark LeCras, Todd Goldstein, Leigh Montagna all handy previous pick 37's....

In very DIFFERENT drafts !!

Given currently: Melbourne: 12, 36, 54, 72, 90 then 37 is a better prospect than those after, but i doubt of the calibre of those you mention.

I cant really see us picking up more than 4 in the draft and some may stay a little longer on our lists as a result.

According to Twitter, we look to be getting North's second round pick for Maric.

Very good outcome for the Dees if this comes to fruition. I'd prefer to take a punt on a second rounder, than persist with Addam who's shown very little imo.

Apparently a similar issue to Cooney.

Cooney has little to no cartilage left in his knee making it extremely painful to run, Scully has a previous patella injury which may cause him to struggle with large training loads (according to doc Larkin). Whilst they are both knee injuries they are quite different.

Herd on SEN today that the Bulldogs put Cooney up for trade, apparently has really bad knee problems. Is he a risk worth taking? Maybe straight swap Bate for Cooney

Bulldogs put out a statement denying the Cooney trade talk and that he would remain a Bulldog player.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 11 vs St. Kilda

    It's Game Day and after 2 losses on the trot the Dees must win against the Saints today at the MCG to keep in touch with the Top 4. A loss today will see them drop out of the Top 8 for the first time since 2020.

    HEAVEN OR HELL by The Oracle

    Clashes between Melbourne and St Kilda are often described as battles between the forces of heaven and hell. However, based on recent performances, it’s hard to get excited about the forthcoming match between these two sides. It would be fair to say that, at the moment, both of these teams are in the doldrums. The Demons have become the competition’s slow starters while the Saints are not only slow to begin, they’re not doing much of a job finishing off their games either. About the only th

    THE BLOW by Whispering Jack

    Narrm’s finals prospects took a crushing blow after the team’s insipid performance at Optus Stadium against a confident Waaljit Marawar in the first of its Doug Nicholls Round outings for 2024.  I use the description “crushing blow” advisedly because, although the season is not yet at it’s halfway mark, the Demons have now failed abysmally in two of their games against teams currently occupying bottom eight places on the ladder.  The manner in which these losing games were played out w

    HALF FULL by KC from Casey

    It was a case of the Casey Demons going into a game with a glass half full in their match up against the Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields on Saturday. As the list of injured and unavailable AFL and VFL listed players continues to grow and with Melbourne taking all three emergencies to Perth for the weekend on a “just in case” basis, its little brother was always destined to struggle. Casey was left with only eight AFL listed players from who to select their team but only two - an out-of-form

    POSTGAME: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    Many warned that this was a danger game and the Demons were totally outclassed all game by a young Eagles team at Optus Stadium in Perth as they were defeated by 35 points.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.
