Well if Mark Stephens says it then it must be gospel truth :-)

MELBOURNE could be the new home for Essendon utility Angus Monfries.

  • monfries-preview.jpg

The dangerous small goal shark is a conspicuous absence in recent top signings up at Windy Hill and remains out of contract.

It has emerged that Monfries could be headed to the Demons as part of plans from coach Mark Neeld to bolster scoring potential for his struggling unit that won just four games this season.

If the highly experienced Bomber doesn’t head for Melbourne and an MCG home, Monfries is also linked in a possible switch to Port Adelaide.

Port veteran Danyle Pearce is also understood to be considering a move to Melbourne on an attractive four-year deal.

Monfries, 25, is originally from South Australia and a return to his home state is additional lure to a possible switch to Port if Pearce leaves as appears firmly on the cards.

The Demons are believed to have secured a handy small forward with crucial opportunist goal kicking as a serious appeal and are waiting for a chance to announce their new signing.

Neeld is determined to increase his scoring power in ambitious plans to rapidly rise into finals contention.

The Demons averaged just 71.8 points a game in Neeld’s inaugural season, which ranked 15th in the league, while Melbourne leaked 106.4 points a match which was the third biggest in the competition.

It is believed early Demons recruiting lures have snared a handy small forward to join in tandem with last year’s boom arrival Mitch Clark.

Yay, 2 players who hate the contest.

Pearce is a smooth player if he has no one near him, terrible when tagged.

Monfries falls over at a breath of wind and holds his head, can play a bit tho.

Not exactly what i would have expected Neeld to go after but I'll trust his judgement over mine for now (if true)

If we do get Pearce you can kiss goodbye to any mum jokes on demonland

Thats my initial thought too, however, when i heard we were going hard for Mitch Clark i thought. No thanks, hes an over-rated ruckman surplus to our needs, gives away free kicks from trying to be a hard man and has a stupid hair cut and stupid tatts.

How perspective can change when you see what role Neeld has in mind for them, and they're wearing red and blue!

I reckon journos spread this "Shite" and then do a nearest the pin comp at the end, to see who buys the beers.

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date.
