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!)

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

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

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 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.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
