This must take the cake as the most stupid, irrelevant, waste of time post ever.

Couldn't have described your post any better.

    I think we offer him a three year deal and offer up more money than the pies IF we make the eight next year ( or go close to it) and offer him the captaincy

    And then when Ollie Wines is out of contract offer him more than Port have put to the table, giving him the chance to come home and more money

    Plus Pendles barracked for the dees so maybe that counts for something, no one jump down my throat for saying that either, I just said maybe

    Why don't we try getting someone a little more realistic.. Bryce Gibbs.. Out of contract free agent.

    I remember watching his father play, Ross Gibbs (3) WPFC, I must be getting old!

    Where did you hear this rumour from??

    I've been ratting my brain trying to remember, because it was literally like 2 days after the AFL draft combine last year.

    It was more than likely total bulldust, but I guess we'll soon find out come end of next year.

    Ollie has been said to be pretty loyal and would like to repay Power for their faith. He wants to make his own history rather then follow Viney around.

    Doubt that has changed.

    Even if all our young mids come through in the next couple of years,we still won't have anyone with the class of Scott Pendlebury.

    I think we should offer him a $9 million / 7 year deal with the Captaincy as a sweetener.

    We need a Marquee player at the Dees and just his coaching of our young mids would be priceless.

    C'mon Melbourne,pull of a ruthless deal for once!

    you have obvoisly forgotten the diamond tilbrook coup

    Asked his manager on draft day "what do I do now?" after being drafted, in reference to playing in Victoria. Manager told him in 2 years he can go wherever he wants..

    Not signing a contract extension for a reported 400k definitely makes you wonder what he's thinking??.. I hope he comes to the Demons, but I think he is to loyal and will stay with port.

    Very respectable young man...

    I'm not sure about the length, but I think whatever is left after we match Frawley's FA offer and secure Hogan should be used to lure someone really good, be it Pendlebury or another top-line mid. We should have plenty of cash available for these goals given the current state of our list.

    Come on Melbourne!

    Lets do something stupid and ruthless!

    Lets mortgage our future as a club with one idiotic deal!

    Come on!

    Are you serious?

    We're mortgaging our future by paying $1M+ a year for spuds like Jordie,Tappy,Bail and Jetta and getting no return year after year!!! Get rid of those 4 hacks and lure a superstar mid for the same $$$

    You'd be the first to Wee your pants if we got Pendlebury

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.
