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

Still contracted isn't he?

Dodged. A. Bullet. *

yep til end of ny

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?

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
