I am amazed we did not pick Gumbleton .

With our injury luck he should have been a certain selection

Not to mention the cloud hanging over him as a participant in the Essendon player drug fiesta.

I can't believe we missed out on a bargain basement recruit whose ingestion of Mexican jumping beans made him a perfect fit for the Dees.

    When interviewed on SEN, Greg Swan was confident Frawley would stay at Melbourne, when asked whether Carlton would chase him.

    Said that was the latest info that clubs had been receiving re: Chip.

    Also coming out of Melbourne that they are also confident he will stay. I will also be confident, when I hear he has extended his contract with us.

    Article on the AFL website saying a successor will be named by the end of the year, seems like things are working out at this stage

  • Quote

    I know most people dont like the footy show here and i will probably be jumped on but as i live in canberra and its delayed and i couldnt sleep and i was also way to lazy to change the channel that late at night i saw them talking about chip and i can remeber if it was the old idiot or the stuck up dhead nth melb pres that mentioned that its been thrown areound that Frawley will resign to the club when Roos does. And gaz confirmed it.

    Frawley gave an off hand remark a few weeks ago to that affect. It was a joke but a revealing one.

    I don't even think Roos has to say 'I am coach' - I think if he comes out and says 'I am at the club in some capacity indefinitely' he would satisfy a great number of people, let alone James Frawley.

    I disagree.

    Either way he'd get to his destination if he wants to go.

    Yeah but it may affect (effect? I always get those two confused) what we get back in return.

    I am really interested in this point, i don't believe Roos is a bloke to see a job half done, but i also don't believe he wants the pressure and such of being a senior coach long term, i reckon Jackon and co should work on him maybe becoming a senior assistant like Craig was to Neeld to his successor

    Maybe. I'd be more inclined to think it may affect the amount Frawley gets offered by other clubs, which in turn means you'd be right, it should affect our compensation.

    Then again, it might not.

    Depends on how other clubs see his RFA/UFA status.

    If they think like H then it's not likely to make a difference to what they offer.

    (Effect is the noun, affect the verb)

    True, but it was the simple explanation and good enough without giving a full English lesson.

    Peter Ryan says he's off.

    Whose opinion matters?

    Only one in the end...

    Yeah but who's Peter Ryan anyway??

    AFL reporter on the Dees. He's paid to have an educated opinion on the Dees.

    I want to believe, but that is sounding like about as dodgy a source as you can get...

    Salary options?

    Might be seeing if he can get next years pay to go.

  • Quote

    He was having a great time at training today. All the boys were actually. Roosy was a no show though so they mainly just focused on kicking and had a bit of fun kicking at Fitzpatrick in the goal square. I think Westrupp kicked the ball smack bang into his head.

    Word on the street is that the Mfc think they have him convinced, would be a massive show of faith to the club if he was to resign before mid season

    It would be an even bigger show of faith if he signed after our Round 1 victory. Of course I wouldn't count on that happening.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.
