Tweet from the Herald Sun website suggests Maric delisted. Any concrete evidence other than this and who else might be gone?

Cue simple plan music and razor blades. Isn't that right, demonblog? :P

He was a solid NAB cup player sadly. I wanted him to be something special because he can kick a ball, but it didn't happen. The club gave hm chances. He tried but the crumbs just didn't come to him. A top guy i am told. Good luck

Thought he didn't get enough of a run personally, got dropped after we lost a game yet he usually wasn't the worst on the ground... certainly did more than Morton did yet they kept giving Cale more chances.

See Newton.

7 years worth of chances. I guess the less you have to offer a side physically determines the amount of chances you get.

Must suck to be the little guy..

Cale has more height, and is a pick 4 - Maric is little, and was a second-rounder. Plus, we've seen Cale's best, and his best is very good. I can't think of one match where Maric was outstanding - in his first two years, Cale had plenty.

Dont I know it !

Maric Officially delisted:

http://www.melbournefc.com.au/news/newsarticle/tabid/7415/newsid/125311/default.aspx

Also gone are rookies Cam Johnston, Tom McNamara and Robbie Campbell has retired.

I thought there was a rule rookies has to stay on your list for two years? I guess that has

been phased out as Johnston and Campbell were only there for 12 months.

And the biggest non-news from these announcements? The Juice is still loose!

Maybe he's hanging around to get his MFC Life Membership for ten years of 'Outstanding Service'

Nah, he's waiting for Free Agency

aka Chris Johnson

Are you being sarcastic? That reason is a furphy.

Maric was not good enough....period.

Newton had more skills at AFL level than Maric. Newton just did not have the mindset and maturity to capitalise on it.

Posted

Newton had skills at AFL level? I thought he only got contracts because he was a big body surrounded by lambs.

I could see something in Maric I don't think it was a furphy- but at the same time I think he had enough chances. I couldn't really see much in Newton but I guess that is subjective.

Posted

There's got to be more announced - we still have to delist at least one more senior list player.

Posted

Good luck to Robbie Campbell its a shame he couldn't get up again.

Is there any chance he will stay at the club in a coaching role?

Posted

There were a few cameos at AFL and some performances at Sandy where Newton had the ability marking (not just contested) but also was a very effective kick for goal. But the problem was above the shoulders?

If we gave contract based on a big body then we would still have Paul Johnson here probably on a 5 year contract. Hmmmm!!!

Posted

Yeah but how many spuds can you have on your list at the one time, big bodied or not. I feel that Newton has been lucky. I think that Johnson had a little more spud about him.

Posted

There's got to be more announced - we still have to delist at least one more senior list player.

Not if we draft Cameron Bruce .....


Posted

There's got to be more announced - we still have to delist at least one more senior list player.

Do we have to, or do we need to?

I thought we only had to make 3 list changes?

Posted

Merc = Change 1

Warnock = Change 2

Maric = Change 3

Hope Norf can uncover the rough diamond in Maric that a lot of other people see.

All I have ever seen is ordinary at best.

Juice still riding the wave of 2007 Mark of the year.

through comparative mathematical analysis I have extrapolated that Jurrah will remain on the list till 2132.

Do we have to, or do we need to?

My understanding is you need 3 picks in the national draft. You can use any of them on rookie upgrades and not make a 'live' selection, but even then with Clark effectively replacing Scully so far it's only Warnock and Maric out.

Posted
Merc = Change 1 Warnock = Change 2 Maric = Change 3

Clark = Change -1.

Still need to move on at least one more. Looking at you, Wona and/or Macdonald.

    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.

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

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
