Signing the Needed ones

Featured Replies

Posted

After some encouraging performances and all our off field movement I feel the focus of Peter Jackson et al should be directed on signing Jack Watts ,Max Gawn ,extending James Frawley and even Hogan.

While rightly focus on 2014 coach is garnishing the headlines signing our stars would also make it more attractive to a prospective coach.

Ps unsure about Colin Sylvia

 

In order of signing priority:

1. Frawley contract extension

2. Watts

3. Gawn

4. Sylvia

5. Hogan on a 10 year contract and a supremely fertile athlete girlfriend

I think Sylvia is extremely important given he is a free agent. I am pretty optimistic we will keep our players now that Neeld is gone.

 

terlich would be worth a long term extension

Alot more confident now that we will retain players now the "dud one" is gone.

Just listen to what watts said to MS

MS are u more likely to stay now than u were two wks ago?

JW yes

Positive news.

Do not agree with Sylvia, he has had more chances than most at this level.

 

Hey why dont we give Jamar another 3 years and while we are at it surely Davey could be given 2 more!

Well Jaded, if you're not volunteering, maybe we could bring over another West Australian for him

Chelsea


Someone find out where Michelle Jenneke is, drag her down to AAMI Park and lock her in a room for a few days with Hogan.

I'd be waiting to see if he continues it into next year, DF. We've made that mistake before. Let's see him show consistency and then we can offer reward.

Wow. I know it's in jest, but massively problematic.

Sign Watts and Gawn up for 3 years ASAP

Extend Hogans contract to 5 years and big money

Sylvia for 2 years, might have to pay overs a little but its worth it as we have hardly any good senior players

my understanding was that watts was hoping to sign on asap just waiting on his manager to return from a holiday

...

Let me assure you, PJ is way ahead of you.

Uh... Not sure I meant it to sound so forceful.

It was intended to be more along the lines of "get Michelle Jenneke & Hogan together, then stick them in the honeymoon suite with Barry Manilow playing..."

Or something.

Unless you're talking about something else.

Barry Manilow and a honeymoon suite sounds a little more consensual. ;)

In order of signing priority:

1. Frawley contract extension

2. Watts

3. Gawn

4. Sylvia

5. Hogan on a 10 year contract and a supremely fertile athlete girlfriend

But what will happen if the gf in point 5 hates Melbourne and Supports another team?


Slightly more realistic here. I wonder what Jessica Trengove is doing these days? She's an athlete, she probably knows a few of our players, has ties to the club...

To me the Barry Manilow would be a gun to the head, but Adam like that your radar is on and your not afraid to speak up in a mature way.

On the light hearted note, I am amazed at how often father son selections seem to come good, I too hope that Hogan and other get some Barry White tunes happening.

Followed by Fitzy, Garland and Grimes.

She knows at least one.

Starting to get creepy now guys

  • GAMEDAY: Fremantle

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons return to the MCG wounded, undermanned and desperate. Still searching for their first win of the season, Melbourne faces a daunting task against the Fremantle Dockers. With key pillars missing at both ends of the ground, the Dees must find a way to rise above the adversity and ignite their season before it slips way beyond reach. Will today be the spark that turns it all around, or are we staring down the barrel of a 0–6 start?

  • PREVIEW: Fremantle

    A month is a long time in AFL football. The proof of this is in the current state of the two teams contesting against each other early this Saturday afternoon at the MCG. It’s hard to fathom that when Melbourne and Fremantle kicked off the 2025 season, the former looked like being a major player in this year’s competition after it came close to beating one of the favourites in the GWS Giants while the latter was smashed by Geelong to the tune of 78 points and looked like rubbish. Fast forward to today and the Demons are low on confidence and appear panic stricken as their winless streak heads towards an even half dozen and pressure mounts on the coach and team leadership.  Meanwhile, the Dockers have recovered their composure and now sit in the top eight. They are definitely on the up and up and look most likely winners this weekend against a team which they have recently dominated and which struggles to find enough passages to the goals to trouble the scorers. And with that, Fremantle will head to the MCG, feeling very good about itself after demolishing Richmond in the Barossa Valley with Josh Treacy coming off a six goal haul and facing up to a Melbourne defence already without Jake Lever and a shaky Steven May needing to pass a fitness test just to make it onto the field of play.
