I believe the rumours that give us the best players for the least cost. The other ones are garbage.

Ralph just tweeted that someone on Twitter who is in the know has claimed that it could be Vince, McKernan and Henderson for Pick 2. Not taking that too seriously as the bloke he quoted on Twitter has no followers but on the other hand Ralph wouldn't re-tweet it if it didn't have some possibility too it.

One minute they say Pick 2 not involved, the next minute this. God bless trade week.

McKernan is not needed due to being a tall forward. Ricky Henderson is practically Jack Watts.

No thanks

Why don't we chuck in Viney with that deal too? You know, just to make it fair

As laughable as that deal sounds you can't help but have a small part of you worry about it after Mahoney said we are more likely to swap Pick 2 for players rather than a great player! ;)

true, but I don't think our club is that stupid. Maybe in the past, not now

Very true. I don't personally think that deal is a possibility and if it was FB or a 'mate' suggesting it then I wouldn't bother, but I figure someone like Jon Ralph putting it out there means there is a least a small amount of merit in it.

Why Jon Ralph is as much of a tool as Barrett Hutchy and the rest of the sycophants. He retweeted a brain fart someone had, wouldn't read too much into it.

I thought he might have been. Further looks at the other guys tweets proves that, shouldn't have been so quick to post it.

Don't bet on it, 94.

Recent history would suggest that if administrators are not stupid when they come to Melbourne, then something at MFC soon changes that.

As laughable as that rumour is, we have done crazier things than that in the past.

God, I hope I'm just being a cynical old .art.

Has a Victorian girlfriend apparently

What position does she play? I hope she's an on-baller.

I guess if I pursued this further I would again risk censure by some of our more zealous moderators, so I will just have to leave it up to your imaginations.

I didn't intend the humorous banter that has occurred as a result of my post. Funny how things develop.

I was suggesting that Vince's girlfriend living in Melbourne was not all that significant given that she would not be playing for us.

I understand, none the less, that it could help entice Vince to come to Melbourne (city) and hopefully play for MFC.

Sorry can't agree. Bernie Vince is still a gun player and it shows how little a lot of Victorians watch Interstate Football when they deride such talented AFL players. Bring him in with Jarrad Lyons and pick up a couple more youngsters in the draft and Cross in the Pre-Season and we might actually start to win more clearances and amass more Inside 50's.

generally gun footballers finish in their club's top 10 in the B n F when they play 21 games.

I trust that if Vince comes to us that 'gun player' doesn't mean that he's shot.

Even gun players have an off year and Bernie fell out with the administration after his naked party antics on the grog.

or he was just not very good... at his best Vince is a B Grader, never a gun, not against recruiting him, just wary of the price...

John Ralph reported things post neeld sacking that only an inside source could have told him - like neeld making certain players cry and Moloney insisting Jamar always tap to him. These were facts that had to have come from an inside source since they were not public at the time. Sycophant or not he knew more about what was going on inside the club in the Neeld days than most supporters.

With the year he had, he would have finished in the top 10 of OUR B n F. Which is, I believe, the point here.

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp. DEMONLAND'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS It’s going to be a scorcher today but I’m in the shade at Gosch’s Paddock ready to bring you some observations from the final session before the Preseason Training Camp next week.  Salem, Fritsch & Campbell are already on the track. Still no number on Campbell’s

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    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
