I had the pleasure of having a long chat with Jared at a function prior to the Darwin game. A delighful down to earth bloke. While he was not specific about his own plans two things were clear. 1. He

Please let this be true. This would mean as much to me as attracting players from others club.

Great news, I think. Is his manager verbally dyslexic?

According to Trade Radio and Nigel Carmody - "Rivers will definitely not be leaving Melbourne".

I assume he is JR's manager??

Good news if correct.

Have been a reader for a long time of Demonland but just had to join today. Got excited when I saw Rivers was staying BUT this is not a correct quote! The quote is "River will NOT definitely be leaving Melbourne" not "Rivers will definitely not be leaving Melbourne".

This thread is incorrect.... The quote was " Jared Rivers is not definately leaving Melbourne"

Translation, he is looking at offers to leave but has not made up his mind yet.

the double negative will excite some of our week known soothsayers even more that the usual single negative. Some just love everything about anything negative.

You're right. But I can't change the title...

His manager Nigel Carmody from ESP told Gillette AFL Trade Radio that Rivers would have to wait and see what transpired from meetings held between AFL clubs this week before he knew what his options might be, but he emphasised that Rivers was no guarantee to depart Melbourne.

"By no stretch is he definitely leaving Melbourne," Carmody said.

no guarantee to leave Melbourne, alot different to what was quoted as i thought may be the case

... this might just be me, but I don't think playing finals footy is enough to justify a move. I could understand a move to a premiership contender (Sydney, Hawks, etc) But if the club isn't likely to be a legitimate contender (and I don't think Geelong are going to be one) then contract length and amount must at least be as significant as what MFC would be offering before considering a move.

good point. The MFC may be closer than Geelong in terms of winning a flag. Even though i expect them to contest finals for at least the next 2-3 years.

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an
