I reckon Juice hides behind some rubbish bins when it comes to list lodgement and they forget he exists. Poor Tommy Mac, getting the arse from the rookie list before Juice must cut him deep.

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

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.

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!!!

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.

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?

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.

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.

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.
