    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

    Almost as laughable as some of your suggestions big fella! Didn't think that was possible...

    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.

    • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

      Round 14 is upon us and there's plenty at stake across the rest of the competition. As Melbourne heads to Adelaide, it's time to turn our attention to the other matches of the Round. Which teams are you tipping this week? And which results would be most favourable for the Demons’ finals tilt?

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
