Addam Maric delisted

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.

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'

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.

    GOLDIE'S METTLE by Meggs

    On a perfect night for football at the home of the Redlegs, Norwood Oval, it was the visiting underdogs Melbourne who led all night and hung on to prevail in a 2-point nail-biter. In the previous round St Kilda had made it a tough physical game to help restrict Adelaide from scoring and so Mick Stinear set a similar strategy for his team. To win it would require every player to do their bit on the field plus a little bit of luck.  Fifty game milestoner Sinead Goldrick epitomised

    REDLEG PRIDE by Meggs

    Hump day mid-week footy at the Redlegs home ground is a great opportunity to build on our recent improved competitiveness playing in the red and blue.   The jumper has a few other colours this week with the rainbow Pride flag flying this round to celebrate people from all walks of life coming together, being accepted. AFLW has been a benchmark when it comes to inclusivity and a safe workplace.  The team will run out in a specially designed guernsey for this game and also the following week

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play
