I'm a bit concerned for the author if he hasn't mastered the difference between "your" and "you're" yet...

Blame that on the editor, that's the beauty of Journalism and other forms of writing!

Looked a reasonable article to me.

Pity a few of the media idiots do not read it!

They would never agree with it because it doesn't fit in with their dislike of Melbourne, it would interfere with their prejudicial view of anything we do. Imagine Barrett or any of the rest of the garbage that call themselves journalists saying Melbourne got it right.

He is contracted so unless you want to pay out his contract just to be rid of him it is not going to happen.

Cale's turn will come next year. Get over the fact he will be with the MFC in 2013

Barrett has been having a cry all during TWR about MFC - and then he makes snide comments about our supporters when we attempt to defend some of the clubs moves making comments like "just like all Melbourne supporters who think they know everything about the club" etc - yes idiot there's a fair chance they probably do know a hell of a lot more about it than you do. No MFC supporter has come out saying the Dawes move will win us a flag either, they've tried to point out that overall we have done quite well out of this period albeit not being able to address every single deficiency on our list. But clearly Barrett's ego (what has he done to deserve one anyway?" can't handle someone having an opinion different to his.

Unless the alleged try out at WCE proves fruitful for him.

I agree we are doing well this trade period.. but if we end up losing Gysberts, Morton, Martin and Petterd for half-of-stuff-all I will not be as pleased that's for sure.

Those four are half of stuff all...

each of them has the potential to be a quality player for us. We are not flush with an abundance of others that the same can be said for. If we are talking swapping them for something else potentially useful, that is one thing - but it appears to me at the moment we are prepared to throw these guys out with the garbage which would be downright stupid. I already have a bad taste in my mouth with Moloney and Rivers gone for basically nothing, we are treading on dangerous ground if you ask me

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    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

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan. Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov

WAYNE WUSSELL'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Rehab: Lever, Spargo, McAdam, Lindsay, Brown Sinnema is excellent by foot and has a decent vertical leap. Windsor is training with the Defenders. Windsor's run won't be lost playing off half back. In 19 games in 2024 he kicked 8 goals as a winger. I see him getting shots at g

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. 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. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
