If Mon-misfires gets on the list then Juice has a big chance of a return

We are clearing out our dead wood, we dont need the bombers drift wood.

My Bombers supporting mates (all of them) would love him to head to Melbourne... or anywhere that isn't Essendon really... Not excited about this rumour at all.

Not even thinking about it until I hear it from someone other than Kim Hackdorn

My bummers mates reckon he's the first woman to play AFL. No thanks.

I would not say no to anyone who can kick goals for the MFC.

He can take a Mark for a small guy or dive. lol

He would not be that bad of a pick up IMO.

I would love the dees to go after Matt White from the tigers as a small forword with pace.

Shannon Byrnes would be the "small forward" mentioned but unable to be announced?

Boo F**kin yeh!

Im not gonna lie, i would be happy with a player like monfries or pierce coming to melbourne.

bit of class

Shannon Byrnes would be the "small forward" mentioned but unable to be announced?

I did here his name and melb mentioned a while ago on SEN,

i wouldn't complain with byrnes either.

Umm what?

Where did you get this from?

Link please

What? You want a source for an unsubstantiated rumour? Even if it were on the front page of every newspaper in Australia, it would still be a rumour at this stage.

cant poach a player until the club has finished the season otherwise big fines apply. Highly doubt we would risk that so i doubt it would be Byrnes since Geelong are still playing. Would prefer Monfries only 25 Byrnes 28. Monfries is a good kick!!

Ditto.. and perfectly put.

You know the only intelligent bummer supporters in existence!

Geez were getting desperate here at D/land..

Angus Monfries is Pus.

Apparently he is a w@nker of highest proportions

In all seriousness (because I haven't read an article by SNF since this time last year) do they every write anything close to accurate?

All of their articles I read this time last year didn't eventuate...

Forgive me if I'm not doing cartwheels.

Yet you would over Caddy or Boak.

Media hype is a powerful thing...

The very poor choice that was Moorcroft (throw in Heffernan for that matter) is absolutely irrelevant to the current discussion....different players and more importantly very different footy departments at both clubs this time around.

maybe Monfries can kick and maybe Monfries can and will chase and provide defensive pressure and maybe Monfries doesn't 'sook off' if asked to do something by the coach that he 'doesn't like'! I would imagine if any of those KPIs didn't match Neeld's expectations then he would not be offered a contract.

What about 3rd time lucky?

Free agency doesn't start until October 1. How can we have 'secured' a small forward already? What am I missing here?

No thanks monfiries is not much better then bate why on earth would we want him?? Also not interested in peake at all he may have a touch of class but is an absoulete soft [censored] seriously these types of players are not going to improve our club on or off the field.

Monfries is alright.. not amazing

Computer says no.

You blokes have NFI

Monfries would be best 22 for most teams in the AFL

Just remember while we have been crap for the last 6 years, Monfries has kicked over 150 goals for The Bombers

Just remind me when we last had a small forward contributing 25 plus goals in a season.

I can't think of one since The Wizard!

My mail is that we have offered him a 4yr deal

Yet you would over Caddy or Boak.

Media hype is a powerful thing...

Boak - Reigning B&F at Port

Caddy - No.7 draft pick developing beautifully

You - a Numnut

My mail is that we have offered him a 4yr deal

Your mail, or did you see the @ClarkyHeraldSun tweet "Angus Monfries to Melbourne. Four year deal. Rival clubs convinced it's happening."?

Do we really have to see that little poseur running around for us for the next four seasons, coiffing his fringe, arching his back and flailing his arms at the slightest touch from a defender?

I'd almost rather given Aaron Davey a three-year extension.
