Be my guess too, given the participants. Allows time for a couple of farewell games.

Please no. One of the few senior players on the list who have leadership and talent! Say it ain't so!

hope that the club didnt expect him to do it himself, and then after booting 5 he got confidence back and wanted another year and was rejected :/

He might want to focus on the next chapter of his life.

I doubt we are forcing him through the door.

People need to relax

Had a feeling after watching him celebrate that he may have announced before the game he was retiring. I still think he could go another year in the forward pocket!

I was hoping for Greeny to go around again next year,especially when we don't know what's going to happen with LJ and Petterd will be offered to the Suns.

and Cook not coming on,we have a seriously weak forward line.

All the best Brad.

I thought he'd have another year at the club as a third or fourth forward, he could kick 30 to 40 goals in that sort of position.

Good luck Greeny if you do retire just don't pop up at GWS in 12 months time, try to stick around the club and mentor some of the young kids.

As hard as it is to take and look back and see what Greeny has achieved without getting the utlimate, it would be the right thing for him to retire now.

We are not going to play finals in the next two years in my opinion. Staying on would see Brad come under increasing scrutiny that would diminish his place in the game. Most importantly I am hopeful it's a mutual agreement/understanding?

Green announcing retirement?

Correct weight in my opinion.

I think the club should keep him in some capacity.

The right decision. Green gets to call the end in a fitting way. A loyal and dedicated demon.

Well done Brad. A mentoring role would be good in the future.

If this is the case, all the best to him. A great club servant for many years. His form was down in the past couple, but this doesn't detract from his contribution to the club.

Hopefully it was mutual and not another McDonald 2.0

If retirement is the case here then congratulations all round. He will go out in style and would not surprise me if snapped up by another club as a specialist coach with a view to being a senior Coach later down the track.

I think they'll be announcing a one year deal which will followed by a job of some capacity at the club. We need him for next year but tying him to the club after means we can begin to think without him next year and move forward with him still happy.

I don't think so.

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street.
