WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - CHRIS DAWES

Featured Replies

Driving me crazy - the trade radio keeps dropping out! Not that its a great loss as it is gold standard filler! How many times can Wallace and Gromit say the the same thing.

Wallace update btw - he thinks 20 for Dawes is more than enough an the dees shouldn't give up anything else.

Marty Task says no movement on Ray. If we don't get him i would be thinking it's a shame about Ray.

"Give the bloke a break ffs."

I give no-one a break. I leave that for supporters like you.

Yeah, I've sat next to blokes like you at the footy, taking out their frustration with their world on the players they purport to support.

Support, funny word that.

Anyone who quotes a Facebook page as a confirmed source should have his or her account deleted.

Source is not a Facebook page. Very reliable source. This is what Collingwood have asked for not what we are offering.

 

If we can drag it out till we get our compo for Riv (if he goes) I'd suggest to the pies pick 27 + Ricky and we keep pick 20.

I don't sit.

You're welcome to have your views and I'll have mine. I spent 20 years making excuses for Melbourne players. But I know there's more than enough Melbourne supporters who'll readily do it for me.

If there are valid reasons why a player doesn't play consistent footy, such as Dawes coming back from a fractured knuckle in 2011, or playing a different role last year, I'll make such assessments, but when it's just a bone lazy player like Sylvia, or a player who picks and chooses his contests like Watts, I'll treat them accordingly.

Just for those who are talking picks way over pick 20 -you do realise that the doggies offered pick 21.Dawes is contracted and Collingwood can say you go where we say or you dont go.

Petterd + 20 for Chris Dawes CONFIRMED !!

If this is the case, you and I have very different definitions of the word 'confirmed', sir.

 

Facebook fella says that Melbourne are the ones who have made the offer to "Collyingwood", with "Pettard" on the table.

Sounds reputable to me.

Well why not say that initially that it's an offer only, rather than intimate it's a "CONFIRMED!" deal.

Lol now I can't wait for the trade period to end, after holding my breath from round 10 onwards for this season to end..

What a crap religion this is!

Too much. Let Dawes got to Footscray and let Collingwood settle for #21.

Yeah, lets ruin the whole deal because the difference between 20 and say 27 is just too big to deal with..

FFS muppets like you make me frustrated

for dawes I think pies are after our pick 20 & moloney compo pick (possibly second round)

Well I would tell them to sod off then. I am starting to come around, just, to 20, maybe, but no more (except maybe throw in Morton with the undertaking that they play him every time they play us!)

Do some people on here really understand the importance of structure down the spine?

Good. Go outside and chew on a bone for a while.

Haven't you heard? Collingwood won't settle for a pick like 21, "they'll have to do more than that"...this is Dawes we're talking about.

apparently not

What a crap religion this is!

It's the worst.

Except for all the other ones.


Petterd + 20 for Chris Dawes CONFIRMED !!

Source? because trade has shut for the day and nothing confirmed

Couldn't even spell Petterd's name properly, let alone Collingwood!

I think that was the bit that Pman picked up on just quietly.

No need to get all butthurt about it- simply think before you post thoughtless drivel next time.

It saves time, space and money.

The Magpies are pushing Dawes out as Q Lynch came cheap and their salary cap is bursting at the seams.

Is this correct? Are the Pies replacing him with a cheaper version?

Why else would you opt for Q lynch over Dawes?

Surely Dawes is the better prospect?

Is his hand rooted?

Strange

  • 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.
