Aaron Davey reconsidering his position at Melbourne

Featured Replies

 

Just reported on Channel 7 news, said to be considering his future at MFC.

Still contracted isn't he?

Dodged. A. Bullet. *

* if not [censored] from Ch 7

 

yep til end of ny

Id be very impressed if he pulled the pin.


Id be very impressed if he pulled the pin.

Didn't see the report but is he looking to pull the pin or be traded?

So what's his options? Retire or ask for trade with a team willing to pick up his contract yeah?

Anyone else get the feeling there's been a not too subtle meeting of the coach and players behind closed doors that's seen some finally decide not to "buy in"?

Such a shame, was in great form, showing great leadership.... Oh I can't even continue with this sarcastic jab...

Good, clean out every softy from this club.

Didn't say, just said was "reconsidering his future at MFC".

See my post above about trade etc, pretty sure he doesn't have many options.

I cant see he has an option to go into the trade bin. Times caught up. :(

Regardless it's VERY interesting. He is another of the "old firm" as I like to put it who have been with the club for a while but haven't been up and about for the last few seasons. While I have loved Flash and what he brought to the club it's clear that he isn't the player he used to be and, like Beamer and to a lesser extent Green, would be the main culprits when it came to going missing in big games.

I'd be sad to see him either traded or retire but, in terms of moving forward, it's a positive move (again!) for the club after the last 6 years. The wheels are turning.

Pretty sure he won't get a game anywhere else.

Can anyone hand-over-heart declare that Davey will be of any use next year?

He's undisciplined and totally behind in fitness.

I will applaud him if he makes the call.

If I were him, I'd certainly be looking somewhere else.

Be sad to see him go, should the story have any legs. Thought he showed some glimpses this year, maybe not enough for him to go on though.


His lost his speed and with out that Davies is really no use to us.

Loved him as a kid it will be Sad to see him go.

Loved watching him play, however think it is time to move on.

he will get a trade for his kicking maybe a 3rd round pick

Makes sense, but it is Davey's call of course.

I imagine the club would be comfortable letting him go.

I so much look forward to the time when we have even a few players who are consistenty contenders for the best and fairest, instead of the string of one or two year wonders that pepper out honour board at the moment.

At least Nathan Jones has shown a picture of consistency and progress through his career. That's the kind of thing I want noted at the end of year functions.


If I were him, I'd certainly be looking somewhere else.

ya reckon ?

He's now a couple of yards slower than required. His body is dishing up some unfortunate luck with injuries.

Hes 29, he'll be 30 not long into season 13.

Oh yeah baby sign him up....can hear this from far and wide....those FD's will be lining up :unsure:

His lack of opportunity this year has been disappointing and I've always been on his side. Wish you the best, Davey

 

A few years ago, his mother said she wanted to see her boys reunited at the one club.

Perhaps a trade with the Bombers for that Angus character?

hmm.. a little bit of logic there sire

Isn't Angus Monfries a restricted free agent?

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.
