Daniel Nicholson.... This thread is talking about contracts right?

 

Michie jones tyson Vince Dawes hogan Clark! The rest just carry on!!

If Clark and Frawley are headed for all Australian I think we would be all feeling very good about ourselves.

 

James Strauss

We need a good kick and decision maker in the backline.

He also has really good speed - perfect rebounding defender.

I refuse to jinx any of our players by naming them in this thread!

We might need to invest in a shredder so we can do Pedersen's and Byrnes contracts at the same time.

wont it be a joyous ocasions when Nichsolson, Pederson, Byrnes and Dunn are all gone.

Jack Watts, obviously. Time to fire up and become a leader with actions and stop looking for motivation from external sources. It's all in you my friend

I don't care if he becomes a leader or not all I want from him is some desire.

A little pinch of Jack Viney and you could have a great player but then again you could say that for any player.

Put Jack Viney's head on Jack Watts' body and you'd have a brownlow medal.


Sylvia, I think he is due this year...

Oh wait... Nevemind

Just needs a good preseason Right?

Has to be Supermitch doesnt it?

This guy is a massive component of the Demons makeup make no mistake.

In saying that he needs the ball delivered to him silver service so Trenners next in line to rip it up.

I only hope that one day soon my team comes back from its 7 year holiday.

I miss them and their replacement are only at VFL level at best.

Mind you there a few good public speakers in the replacement team so all must be good!

Well who would I like to see go well next season. There is Collingwood, MessyDrugs and Brisbane Bears to choose from, oh wait there a team called Melbourne, I think I go for them next season.

Players to improve THE WHOLE MFC TEAM as they done nothing in seven years so they should all be nice and rested.

No pressure, but HOGAN. If this kid comes in and does a Carey things will change around here very quickly.

I really hope you mean Wayne and not Mariah. You'd be right either way, though - things would change around here very quickly.

Love to see on a regular basis, Viney handballing to Toumpas on the Wing, looks up kicks long to Hogan 30m out direct in front Goal. The three house mates ripping it up together.

Watts is the other one, the bloke has copped it from the day he was drafted.


  1. Jack Watts ( just to shut a few around here up!)

And there will be another four whipping boys to take their place.

I agree. Let's not see Watts turn into the next Sylvia and show promise but never consistently deliver.

I'm tipping that with some excellent coaches finally at the club, Jack will be off the chain.

Toump and Trenners. Both have been judged to harshly and had battles with there bodies in there very short period in the game.

I think they will show lots this year and feeling a little smug about how good trenners will be this season.

I would love nothing more than Watts to rip it up. Not sure if he ever will but wow he desserves it to shut some very annoying people up.

Clayton Collard (which ever league he is playing in...) so H can finally stick it to Sleeve.

MFC wise, Tappy for me. I want Tarzan to play like Tarzan, not Cheetah.


I would think that the performance of the revamped Midfield will have a lot to do with the improvement of others

I'm particularly keen to see Toumpas do well simply because some people were so absurdly unreasonable in their criticism and expectations of him last year.

That was an embarrassment.

None of those people have any right to ever complain about anyone else's culture problem. Seriously, writing off an 18 year old without a preseason. Bet you felt big.

Having said that, we have quite a selection of underperformers/injury victims to choose from.

Players I'm confident can improve their performance overall,

Watts, Howe, McKenzie.

Players who have been held back by injury, but clearly have quality.

Clark, Dawes, Gawn, Grimes, Trengove.

Young players who you'd have to have a bit of confidence in seeing progress from

McDonald, Viney, Toumpas, Kent, Clisby, Terlich, Fitzpatrick.

The 'hopeful' or 'last chance' basket.

Strauss, Blease, Tapscott, Bail, Spencer.

But deep down, what we all want is for Nathan Jones to lift yet another notch and, in a more competitive midfield, become recognised as leading midfielder AFL-wide.

 

Watts has huge room for improvement and he needs to show it next year, it's his 6th year in the system and it's make or break.

Howe has a tremendous upside and if he can get his act together he could be the player of the year for us; he has the tools but to me he seems as if he just coasts through games.

Dawes if he can stay on the park will surprise a few, he took 12 marks in a game against Hawthorn at the G and showed what he is capable of; needs to do it more often.

Jimmy Toumpas and Jack Watts for me.

  • 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.

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
