    Pleased to see that, they all deserve a new contract, some tough nuts in that lot. Not sure why they included Gillies I would have thought he would have a contract when they recruited him.

    worst. decision maker. ever

    Tough, quick, unheralded, nice size and should get better. Still young with time to improve in certain areas and I hope he does well for us. IMO I think he's a kid with a bit of a future and I certainly haven't put the pencil through him.

    Glad to see Jetta given another chance.

    If he can be injury free I think he will be an asset this season.

    Updated. I think Nicho is a longer contract, or at least they should get him on a longer contract.

    You've got Gillies in there twice. Next year's delistings look interesting, but I guess that's a discussion for another time.

    If we get locked out of next year's draft Nasher it may not be a problem!

    Ok, we nearly done here.

    Gave all the ND draftees 2-year contracts until reported otherwise.

    Another busy year next year looking at those OOC...

    So a nett of 12 changes on PL and 2 changes on RL

    14 new faces in total

    that's big and so far it looks quite positive and balanced

    kudos to all those who engineered this - end result better than i anticipated (says he going early)

    My take on the contract situation for next year

    Sign Them ASAP

    Watts, Sylvia (UFA),Grimes, Tynan

    Sign them before end of season

    Taggert, Gawn, Fitzpatrick, Nicholson, Evans

    Wait and see

    Davey (RFA), MacDonald, Sellar, Jetta, Davis, Couch ®, Magner ®, Rodan, Gillies

    Agree with you on all but Sylvia.

    If you are a UFA at the MFC there is almost no reason to sign up before the end of the year.

    The world is your oyster

    Wait and see what happens.

    I will be surprised if any Free agent signs back on during their final year

    I love Toumpas signing for an extra year. As supporters, we can't know what's going on behind the scenes at a club, but when a guy heralded as one of the best young players of his draft has seen three months of operations and is willing to commit himself, I'd say that's an excellent sign that the culture which saw Tom Scully getting out as fast as he could has been pretty severely curtailed by our new coaching and management team.

    I'm a happy camper.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
