we've made strides to undo the mistake that was 2012/2013

it was a mistake that Moloney left us

we need big-bodied senior midfielders

this is a bloke who'd die for the jumper

undo the mistake and bring him back

It would be good, but it won't happen.

why would he even want to come back anyway?

after the sour taste the MFC left him with

we did not sack him he chose to look elsewhere as a restricted free agent. he made the choice because he did not like the coach, well with any decision comes consequences so move on.

I doubt he'd want to come back and I doubt we'd be even considering it, when you have a split like that it is finished.

Beamer had a big head before he left and if we chased him he would be insufferable.

Neeld wanted beamer to play a defensive game as well, beamer didnt do it cracked it and left. We saw what happened to beamer when he was heavily tagged in games, he couldnt deal with it and did nothing.

No thanks he can stay at brisbane

He's not a bloke who would die for the jumper.

He's not even a bloke who would play in a slightly unfamiliar role for the jumper.

Much better and younger and more suitable midfielders out there to hunt for, too.

I think if we are going to go after a midfielder with only a couple of years left, it would be someone like Cross or Sewell. Someone who not only has something to offer on-field, but also exuding professionalism and hard work.

He'd die for it, but he wouldn't play in it for a mean old coach who wanted him to try new roles? Okie dokie.

Edit: Sorry - didn't see Little Goffy's post, which says the same thing. So yeah, what he said.

So does that mean we should get back Morton, Bennell, Gysberts, Cook ect?

He put himself above the jumper and left for it.

remind me who was it that tweeted KARMA is a [censored]

He can suffer in his jocks, I diehard demon supporter was he? Any pr*ck that played the way he played in 2012 can talk a long walk off a short pier.

He was supposed to be a role model, the only role he did, was to take the kids down to his punching bag camp, and throw his weight around.

lets not get into sampling the wares along Chapel St. Noteably mentioned by $cully after he departed on one of a few reasons he thought MFC culture sucked.

I'd take back burnout king Mclean before beamer, thats saying a lot.

Wouldn't you think Roos & his culture Wisdoms, should be able to workout the best ways forward,,, without Our demands on him for old boys?

I'll trust in his ability to take this club, a shape it up the right way.

Still amazes me that some people here genuinely believe that Moloney was the only one who spat the dummy in 2012 - just about all of them did (they just hid it well) There was a 'work to rule' in place and most of our players have been playing 'selfish' for the last 2 years. 1%ers - they don't exist at our club - hopefully Roos can change that but he has a mammoth task.

In 2012 - Frawley, Garland, Jamar, Davey, Green, Rivers, Sylvia, Bate, Dunn, Trengove, Watts, McKenzie, Bartram and Howe were largely ineffectual in most games. Yet they don't cop any real heat? Only Jones, Grimes and McDonald could hold their heads up from that 2012 season. In many ways, 2012 was worse than this season.

I'm not advocating bringing Moloney back. That relationship is over. Just wanting to add some balance and context. Moloney reflected the rest of the playing group. And it continued on into this season - 2 wins and a pitiful percentage.

Why don't you nip around to Neeldy's in the Delorean? Oh actually, he has no regrets.

Why not borrow Schwabie's Wolseley 6/90 (the one he bought off Stewie Spencer).

This makes me sick. He [censored] off to Brisbane. No. He wouldn't die for the jumper.

And no. I don't want him back. B grader at best.

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
